FBI Director Robert Mueller acknowledged that the bureau uses unmanned drones for surveillance on U.S. soil during testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, adding that such drone use is done in a “very, very minimal way, and very seldom.”

At Wednesday’s hearing, Grassley asked Mueller whether the bureau has developed a set of policies and procedures establishing the “operational limits” of its drone use on American soil.
Mueller responded, “We are in the initial stages of doing that, and I will tell you that our footprint is very small.”
“We have very few, and of limited use,” he added, “and are exploring not only the use, but the necessary guidelines for that use.”
