Your proposed rule edit for Serra do Tepequém includes detailed operational guidelines for drone pilots, referencing DECEA and ANAC regulations. However, to ensure accuracy and reliability, it is important to reference official sources that confirm these regulations. Additionally, the outline provided is a general circle; a more precise outline representing the actual area of Serra do Tepequém would enhance the rule's effectiveness.

Geographically, the Serra do Tepequém is a spectacular flattened mountain plateau or tepui located in the municipality of Amajari, in the northern state of Roraima. The physical relief rises dramatically over 1,000 meters above sea level, showcasing a massive crescent-shaped mesa formed by highly ancient volcanic and sedimentary sandstone structures, scarred by deep ravines from historic diamond mining cycles. This complex, isolated geological relief generates highly hostile micro-airspace conditions for multirotor platforms. The immense vertical rocky escarpments trap intense solar heat, triggering sudden, powerful thermal updrafts and unpredictable mountain wind shears rolling off the plateau margins. Operating an uncrewed aircraft here presents an extreme risk of hardware loss; the thick rock layers and sheer cliff drops trigger intense satellite signal shading and multipath GPS errors, meaning any localized telemetry drop or sudden automated return sequence will cause the aircraft to collide directly with the sheer canyon walls or drop into inaccessible, remote valleys below.
