M1C.C1.L.I
Criterion 1- Procedures
(a) The applicant must implement a procedure for remote crew members to observe the overflown areas during the operation and identify area(s) of less risk on the ground.
(b) The remote pilot must reduce the number of people at risk by adjusting the flight path while the operation is ongoing (e.g., flying away from the area with a higher risk on the ground or overflying only the identified area(s) of less risk on the ground).
M1C.C2.L.I
Criterion 2 – Technical means
If the mitigation is achieved using technical means (e.g., camera(s) mounted on the UA or visual ground observers with radios/phones), these must provide data of sufficient quality allowing reliable detection of uninvolved people on the ground.
M1C.C1.L.A
Criterion 1- Procedures
(a) The Applicant must provide evidence of compliance with the integrity requirements. The procedure should include:
(1) A clear communication plan, which should use standard phraseology.
(2) Backup procedures in event of a technical issue.
M1C.C2.L.A
Criterion 2 – Technical means
The Applicant must provide evidence of compliance with the integrity requirements.

GM.M1C
M1(C) mitigation is a tactical mitigation where the remote crew or the system may observe most of the overflown area(s), allowing the detection of uninvolved people in the operational area and manoeuvring the UA, so that the number of uninvolved people overflown during the operation is significantly reduced.
