OST-97-3075 | November 19, 1997
Additional information is necessary for us to continue our review of Northern Airlines' application. The applicant has not provided third-party verification for any of its proposed sources of financing. Also, although the applicant has provided forecast financial documents, it has not provided ample notes explaining the basis for the amounts shown. Such explanations should be in sufficient detail to allow our staff to replicate the mathematics involved and to determine the reasonableness of the forecast. This applies to both the forecast statements for the first year of operations and the preoperating expense estimates. Without this information, Northern Airlines' application is seriously deficient and, as a result, the Department cannot determine its financial fitness. Because of the substantial drain that processing incomplete applications places on the Department's staff--particularly in diverting staff resources from processing the applications of persons who are prepared--we have found it necessary to adopt a policy of giving new applicants one opportunity to provide the material that is absent from its application, as discussed above.

Re: Request for Additional Information
While we have been willing to work with applicants in the certification process and, where warranted, allow additional time for a company to provide all of the information needed for us to make an informed decision on its fitness, maintaining incomplete applications on file creates a substantial burden on our staff that often results in delays in processing the applications of companies that have taken the time to prepare complete filings. Thus, we will give Northern 21 days to provide information which will make its application whole. In the event it is unable to provide this material, we intend to dismiss its application without further notice.
