Order Granting Exemption and to Show Cause

On August 23, 2005, the Department issued a Notice, in Docket OST-2005-22228, announcing several steps designed to streamline our regulatory procedures for licensing U.S. and foreign air carriers.

We have decided, under assigned authority and consistent with our August 23, 2005 Notice referenced above, to grant the applicant’s request for exemption authority, subject to conditions, and tentatively to grant, subject to show-cause procedures, its request for a foreign air carrier permit, also subject to conditions.

With respect to the applicant’s request for a foreign air carrier permit in this proceeding, we direct all interested persons to show cause why our tentative decision on that application, set forth above, should not be made final.
