  • Notice of Adjustments to Service Obligations
    Served: May 12, 2020 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON, D.C. CONTINUATION OF CERTAIN AIR SERVICE PURSUANT TO PUBLIC LAW NO. 116-136 §§ 4005 AND 4114(b) Docket DOT-OST-2020-0037 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS TO SERVICE OBLIGATIONS Summary By this notice, the U.S. Department of Transportation (the Department) announces an opportunity for incremental adjustments to service obligations under Order 2020-4-2, issued April 7, 2020, in light of ongoing challenges faced by U.S. airlines due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) public health emergency. With this notice as the initial step, the Department will use a systematic process to allow covered carriers1 to reduce the number of points they must serve as a proportion of their total service obligation, subject to certain restrictions explained below.2 Covered carriers must submit prioritized lists of points to which they wish to suspend service no later than 5:00 PM (EDT), May 18, 2020. DOT will adjudicate these requests simultaneously and publish its tentative decisions for public comment before finalizing the point exemptions. As explained further below, every community that was served by a covered carrier prior to March 1, 2020, will continue to receive service from at least one covered carrier. The exemption process in Order 2020-4-2 will continue to be available to air carriers to address other facts and circumstances. Background On March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Recovery, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act) into law. Sections 4005 and 4114(b) of the CARES Act authorize the Secretary to require, “to the extent reasonable and practicable,” an air carrier receiving financial assistance under the Act to maintain scheduled air transportation service as the Secretary deems necessary to ensure services to any point served by that air carrier before March 1, 2020.

  • This Is the Us Master Pilot Scablist the Unionist's Edition
    THIS IS THE US MASTER PILOT SCABLIST THE UNIONIST’S EDITION A SCAB is A Person Who is Doing What You’d be Doing if You Weren’t on Strike. A SCAB takes your job, a Job he could not get under normal circumstances. He can only advance himself by taking advantage of labor disputes and walking over the backs of workers trying to maintain decent wages and working conditions. He helps management to destroy his and your profession, often ending up under conditions he/she wouldn't even have scabbed for. No matter. A SCAB doesn't think long term, nor does he think of anything other then himself. His smile shows fangs that drip with your blood, for he willingly destroys families, lives, careers, opportunities and professions at the drop of a hat. He takes from a striker what he knows he could never earn by his own merit: a decent Job. He steals that which others earned at the bargaining table through blood, sweat and tears, and throws it away in an instant - ruining lives, jobs and careers. ONCE A SCAB, ALWAYS A SCAB - NEVER FORGET! Below are brief notes about legal strikes by organized pilots. 1. Century Airlines 1932: Pilots struck to resist wage reduction by E.L Cord, the patron saint of Frank Lorenzo. 2. TWA 1946: Pilots struck over pay on faster 4 engine aircraft, limited by the provisions of Decision 83. 3. National Airlines 1948: Strike over aircraft safety and repeated violations of the labor contract. 4. Western Airlines 1958: Qualifications of the Flight Engineer.

  • 2010 Comp Plan
    TRANSPORTATION INTRODUCTION The Transportation Element reflects the changing context of Boone County's transportation network. The text of this element is broken down into three sections: 1. Regional Transportation System (Boone County as an integral part of the Cincinnati metropolitan region), 2. Boone County Transportation Plan, and 3. Transportation/Land Use Connection. 1. REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM The Region - The first Transportation Goal emphasizes that the transportation network of the county is a significant component of a regional, metropolitan transportation system. As shown in Figure 11.1, this Greater Cincinnati metropolitan region includes eight counties in three states: Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana. The responsibility for transportation planning within this region rests with the Ohio- Kentucky-Indiana Regional Council of Governments (OKI). OKI's Regional Transportation Plan provides a good history and overview of the transportation network for this region: Transportation facilities have always been important to this region's growth and prosperity. In the late 1700's, the Ohio River supported Cincinnati's emergence as the gateway to the West, a point of convergence for people and goods. In the 1800's, the Miami and Erie Canal and the railroad system established the Cincinnati area as a Figure 11.1 - Greater Cincinnati metropolitan area commercial and transportation center. Today, the region's transportation network includes five interstate highways, an international airport, and a web of arterial highways. As one of the most heavily multi-modal networks in the country, the region's transportation system is invaluable both to the health of the region's economy and the mobility of the population.

    NEW ISSUE In the opinion of Co-Bond Counsel, under existing law (i) assuming continuing compliance with certain covenants and the accuracy of certain representations, interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes, except interest on any Series 2001A Bond for any period during which it is held by a “substantial user” or a “related person,” as those terms are used in Section 147(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and (ii) interest on the Bonds is excluded from the Connecticut income tax on individuals, trusts and estates and from amounts on which the net Connecticut minimum tax is based in the case of individuals, trusts and estates required to pay the federal alternative minimum tax. Interest on the Bonds is included in gross income for purposes of the Connecticut corporation business tax. The Series 2001A Bonds are “private activity bonds” the interest on which is an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations. The Series 2001B Bonds are not “private activity bonds” and therefore the interest on those Bonds is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations. Interest on the Bonds may be subject to certain federal taxes imposed only on certain corporations.
