§ 124.20 Construction.
(a) No private right. This part is not intended to, does not, and may not be relied upon to create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.
(b) Manned aircraft. Nothing in this part authorizes the use of C-UAS authority against any aircraft or aircraft system operated with a human pilot, crew, or passengers onboard.
(c) Mass gatherings. Consistent with 6 U.S.C. 124n(h)(5), nothing in this part provides a new basis of liability for any State, local, territorial, or Tribal law enforcement officer who participates in the protection of a mass gathering identified by the Secretary of Homeland Security or the Attorney General under 6 U.S.C. 124n(l)(3)(C)(iii)(II), acts within the scope of the officer's authority, and does not exercise the authority granted to the Secretary of Homeland Security and the Attorney General by 6 U.S.C. 124n.
(d) Statutory scope. Nothing in this part alters the scope of the authority of, or the statutory reliefs under 6 U.S.C. 124n(a)(2). A determination that an action does not comply with this part may give rise to administrative, civil, or other consequences provided by law, but does not by itself determine whether the action falls outside the scope of the statutory authorization in, or the relief from criminal liability available under, 6 U.S.C. 124n. Such a determination will be made by the Attorney General, in coordination with the Secretary of Homeland Security and other appropriate officials.
