What action should be taken when an aircraft's visibility is reported below 1 mile during an SVFR request?

When an aircraft's visibility is reported below 1 mile during a Special Visual Flight Rules (SVFR) request, the appropriate action is to notify the pilot that you cannot issue a clearance. This is because SVFR operations require at least 1 mile of visibility for an aircraft to operate legally under these rules. If visibility falls below this requirement, safety is compromised, and it is essential to prioritize the safety of both the aircraft and surrounding air traffic.

In this context, granting a request for SVFR operations would not comply with regulations and could lead to increased risk of accidents. The other options, while they may seem relevant under different circumstances, do not adhere to the critical requirement of maintaining safe visibility standards during SVFR. Instead, the focus should always be on ensuring that pilots operate within the legal limits that safeguard against dangerous flight conditions.
