All reports frame it as authorities used the drones. Not that Anadarko didn't cooperate because they obviously have. Particularly with knowledge of the tanks, the draining, etcetera, they had to be a great resource for LE. (I can only imagine how traumatizing it was for the crew that had to participate in that, knowing why they were draining them.) With respect to the area, I know Longmont PD had budgeted to buy 3 this year for different purposes, Larimer County has them in use also, as well as FD's in the area. LE Agencies in the area cooperated in working the case and you can see Longmont officers among those on the Witness List (possibly others too as I haven't looked at it recently).That does make sense to me, to use Anadarko drones, they would be all programmed, they would presumably have professional operators, the personnel would know how many tank batteries, access, and so forth. Also maybe they had remote docking stations for the drones if they used them frequently.
