  • 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.

  • Appendix C Informal Complaints to DOT by New Entrant Airlines About Unfair Exclusionary Practices March 1993 to May 1999
    9310-08 App C 10/12/99 13:40 Page 171 Appendix C Informal Complaints to DOT by New Entrant Airlines About Unfair Exclusionary Practices March 1993 to May 1999 UNFAIR PRICING AND CAPACITY RESPONSES 1. Date Raised: May 1999 Complaining Party: AccessAir Complained Against: Northwest Airlines Description: AccessAir, a new airline headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa, began service in the New York–LaGuardia and Los Angeles to Mo- line/Quad Cities/Peoria, Illinois, markets. Northwest offers connecting service in these markets. AccessAir alleged that Northwest was offering fares in these markets that were substantially below Northwest’s costs. 171 9310-08 App C 10/12/99 13:40 Page 172 172 ENTRY AND COMPETITION IN THE U.S. AIRLINE INDUSTRY 2. Date Raised: March 1999 Complaining Party: AccessAir Complained Against: Delta, Northwest, and TWA Description: AccessAir was a new entrant air carrier, headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa. In February 1999, AccessAir began service to New York–LaGuardia and Los Angeles from Des Moines, Iowa, and Moline/ Quad Cities/Peoria, Illinois. AccessAir offered direct service (nonstop or single-plane) between these points, while competitors generally offered connecting service. In the Des Moines/Moline–Los Angeles market, Ac- cessAir offered an introductory roundtrip fare of $198 during the first month of operation and then planned to raise the fare to $298 after March 5, 1999. AccessAir pointed out that its lowest fare of $298 was substantially below the major airlines’ normal 14- to 21-day advance pur- chase fares of $380 to $480 per roundtrip and was less than half of the major airlines’ normal 7-day advance purchase fare of $680.

  • Executive Summary
    Yukon Kuskokwim Delta YKTPTRANSPORTATION PLAN Executive Summary March 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Purpose I The purpose of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta Transportation Plan (Plan) is to inventory transportation facilities and issues, and document transportation needs. The Plan identifies, prioritizes, and recommends the top five regionally significant projects1 for each mode of transportation (aviation, marine, and surface) in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta (Y-K Delta). The Y-K Delta is in critical Yukon Kuskokwim Delta need of basic infrastructure necessary for daily life activitiesYKTP including TRANSPORTATION PLAN transportation, facilities, housing, water and sewer, and utilities. The Plan is a 20-year, multimodal, regional transportation plan including various vehicle fleets (e.g. planes, all-terrain vehicles [ATVs], snow machines, barges, skiffs, and automobiles), and modes (e.g. aviation, surface, and marine) of transportation. The Plan is one of six area transportation plans being incorporated into the Alaska Statewide Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP). This is an update to the original Y-K Delta Transportation Plan (2002 YKTP). The Plan is not a programing document. Communities, tribal and city governments, and funding agencies should use this plan as a tool to secure funding for projects from multiple funding sources. The vision for the Plan is: Yukon Kuskokwim Delta Transportation Plan VISION STATEMENT The Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta Transportation Plan will guide transportation decisions in the Yukon- Kuskokwim region by promoting safety, livability, economic development, and intermodal connectivity throughout the transportation system. 1 A regionally significant project is one that provides connection between two or more communities; provides access to public facilities such as hospitals, schools, jobs etc.; or March 2018 provides access to alternative modes of transportation.

  • Analysis of Electric Loads and Wind- Diesel Energy Options for Remote Power Stations in Alaska
    ANALYSIS OF ELECTRIC LOADS AND WIND- DIESEL ENERGY OPTIONS FOR REMOTE POWER STATIONS IN ALASKA A Masters Project Presented by MIA M. DEVINE Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Massachusetts Amherst in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE IN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING February 2005 Mechanical and Industrial Engineering © Copyright by Mia M. Devine 2005 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT ANALYSIS OF ELECTRIC LOADS AND WIND-DIESEL ENERGY OPTIONS FOR REMOTE POWER STATIONS IN ALASKA FEBRUARY 2005 MIA M. DEVINE, B.A., GRINNELL COLLEGE M.S., UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS AMHERST Directed by: Dr. James Manwell This report addresses the potential of utilizing wind energy in remote communities of Alaska. About 175 villages in Alaska are located beyond the reach of the central power grids serving the major urban areas. Instead, they are powered by diesel mini-grids. Along with the high cost of fuel delivery and bulk fuel storage tanks, these communities are exposed to environmental hazards associated with diesel generators, including the potential for fuel spills and the emission of greenhouse gases and particulates. To address these issues, Alaska energy representatives are looking to renewable energy technologies, particularly wind-diesel hybrid power systems. In order to determine the economic and technical feasibility of a wind-diesel system, computer modeling of the different power system options must be done. Two primary pieces of information are essential in accurately modeling the expected performance of a wind-diesel hybrid system: the village electric use patterns and the local wind resource. For many Alaskan villages, this information is not readily available.

  • Summer 2012 FAA TOURS ALASKA’S RURAL AIRPORTS
    Summer 2012 FAA TOURS ALASKA’s RURAL AIRPORTS May 9, 2012 at the Hooper Bay Airport—(L to R) FAA Rick Neff, DOT&PF Commissioner Luiken, FAA Mike McNerney, FAA Frank Smigelski, FAA Associate Administrator Christa Fornarotto, FAA Assistant Administrator Victoria Wassmer, FAA Airports Division Mgr. Byron Huffman, FAA Regional Administrator Bob Lewis, DOT&PF Deputy Commissioner-Aviation Steve Hatter and DOT&PF Roger Maggard. DOT&PF was very pleased to welcome back FAA Associate Administrator Christa Fornarotto and join her in a field inspection of Alaska’s rural airports. The inspection included many flyovers and landings at airports in the Y-K Delta. Conditions were challenging as many airports were still managing record snowfall conditions. There are 257 airports in Alaska funded by the FAA airport improvement program (AIP) with 166 classified as general aviation airports having less than 2,500 passenger enplanements annually. These airports may be small in size but are huge in the services they provide to villages where aviation is the only mode of transpor- tation. The FAA works with aviation stakeholders and local communities to ensure that our airports remain safe and efficient and meet the needs of the public. DOT&PF receives approximately $150M annually in AIP funding to help meet the needs of rural airports. The role of aviation in Alaska is huge, contributing $3.5 billion to the state economy and 47,000 jobs—that represents 10% of all jobs in our state. The “Alaska’s Aviation Lifeline” video recently released by the De- partment truly captures what aviation is all about in our state and can be viewed at these links: www.vimeo.com/39894638 or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDGw09IuApE Message From Deputy Commissioner We were able to sponsor another American Associa- tion of Airport Executives (AAAE) Certified Member (CM) training class and exam—the 2012 CM Acad- emy—and we’re very proud and honored to an- nounce 14 new Certified Members including our own DOT Commissioner, Marc Luiken.

  • INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE on AIR LAW (Montréal, 20 April to 2
    DCCD Doc No. 28 28/4/09 (English only) INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON AIR LAW (Montréal, 20 April to 2 May 2009) CONVENTION ON COMPENSATION FOR DAMAGE CAUSED BY AIRCRAFT TO THIRD PARTIES AND CONVENTION ON COMPENSATION FOR DAMAGE TO THIRD PARTIES, RESULTING FROM ACTS OF UNLAWFUL INTERFERENCE INVOLVING AIRCRAFT (Presented by the Air Crash Victims Families Group) 1. INTRODUCTION – SUPPLEMENTAL AND OTHER COMPENSATIONS 1.1 The apocalyptic terrorist attack by the means of four hi-jacked planes committed against the World Trade Center in New York, NY , the Pentagon in Arlington, VA and the aborted flight ending in a crash in the rural area in Shankville, PA ON September 11th, 2001 is the only real time example that triggered this proposed Convention on Compensation for Damage to Third Parties from Acts of Unlawful Interference Involving Aircraft. 1.2 It is therefore important to look towards the post incident resolution of this tragedy in order to adequately and pro actively complete ONE new General Risk Convention (including compensation for ALL catastrophic damages) for the twenty first century. 2. DISCUSSION 2.1 Immediately after September 11th, 2001 – the Government and Congress met with all affected and interested parties resulting in the “Air Transportation Safety and System Stabilization Act” (Public Law 107-42-Sept. 22,2001). 2.2 This Law provided the basis for Rules and Regulations for: a) Airline Stabilization; b) Aviation Insurance; c) Tax Provisions; d) Victims Compensation; and e) Air Transportation Safety. DCCD Doc No. 28 - 2 - 2.3 The Airline Stabilization Act created the legislative vehicle needed to reimburse the air transport industry for their losses of income as a result of the flight interruption due to the 911 attack.
