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. -

LEGISLATIVE BUDGET and AUDIT COMMITTEE Division of Legislative Audit
LEGISLATIVE BUDGET AND AUDIT COMMITTEE Division of Legislative Audit P.O. Box 113300 Juneau, AK 99811-3300 (907) 465-3830 FAX (907) 465-2347 [email protected] SUMMARY OF: A Special Report on the Department of Environmental Conservation, Division of Spill Prevention and Response, Oil and Hazardous Substance Release Prevention and Response Fund, March 18, 2008. PURPOSE OF THE REPORT In accordance with Title 24 of the Alaska Statutes and a special request by the Legislative Budget and Audit Committee, we have conducted a performance audit of the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC), Division of Spill Prevention and Response (Division). Specifically, we were asked to review the expenditures and cost recovery revenues from the Oil and Hazardous Substance Release Prevention and Response Fund (Fund). REPORT CONCLUSIONS The conclusions are as follows: all expenditures are not recorded according to activities compliance with statutory cost recovery requirements is unclear Division is not efficiently and effectively recovering costs most expenditures were appropriate legal costs need an improved budgeting process certain contractual oversight practices are weak detailed information on the Fund’s financial activities is incomplete During the audit we reviewed a $9 million reimbursable services agreement between the Division and the Department of Law for legal services related to two transit pipeline spills on the North Slope. The contract was funded by the Response Account without specific legislative appropriation. It would have been more prudent to follow the established legislative budget process, especially for long-term legal activities. FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 1. The Division Director should improve the accountability for the Division’s activities and reporting of Fund expenditures. -

FSX/Prepar3d Airport: 7AK Akutan, Alaska, USA
FSX/Prepar3D Airport: 7AK Akutan, Alaska, USA Airport: 7AK - Akutan Airport Location: Akutan Island, Alaska USA Creator: Wayne Roberts ([email protected]) Revised: Conrad F. Staeheli, CH-8807 Freienbach, Switzerland This is a NEW airport. Location: Akutan Airport (IATA: KQA[2], ICAO: PAUT, FAA LID: 7AK) is a state owned, public use airport serving Akutan, a city on Akutan Island in the Aleutians East Borough of the U.S. state of Alaska. The airport is located on Akun Island, 6 miles (10 km) east of Akutan Island. Scheduled air service is subsidized by the Essential Air Service program. https://skyvector.com/airport/7AK/Akutan-Airport http://www.airnav.com/airport/7AK History: The airport was opened in 2012. Akutan was previously served by amphibious airplane service to Akutan Seaplane Base, located on Akutan Island, however, in 2012 operator PenAir announced that they would retire their Grumman Goose aircraft and as a result the traditional airport on Akun Island was built to serve Akutan. The new airport is connected to Akutan by a hovercraft. Boats and amphibious aircraft, hovercraft, or helicopter are the only means of transportation into and out of Akutan. A 200-foot (61 m) dock and a small boat mooring basin are available. Meanwhile the Hovercraft has been sold due to high costs, an Helicopter-Service has been established by Maritime Helicopters. Grant Aviation offers daily flights from Unalaska/Dutch Harbour (ICAO: PADU) to Akutan (7AK, ICAO: PAUT) and back again. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akutan_Airport Changes were made based on 2012 construction plans. Custom models have been added. -

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. -
