DUNE at LBNF

Drone flights this week

This week, Fermilab will be flying a drone to apply dust-binding material to the rock pile deposited by the LBNF/DUNE project in the Open Cut. You may notice the drone flying in the Open Cut today throughout the day.  The drone may be in operation additional days this week as well. 

The dust-binding material, called Dustbind Plus, is commonly used in industry. It poses no health, environmental or physical hazards. The safety data sheet  for the product is posted on our website. If you have questions, please email neighbors-sd@fnal.gov.
