Order 2007-11-23 - US-Colombia Frequency Allocation Proceeding - Instituting Proceeding and Inviting Applications
|
US-Colombia Combination Frequency Allocation Proceeding Order 2007-11-23 Issued and Served November 26, 2007 Order Instituting Proceeding and Inviting Applications We have decided to institute the 2007/2008 U.S.-Colombia Combination Frequency Allocation Proceeding to allocate U.S.-Colombia combination frequencies as follows:
The proceeding will also consider whether American should retain seven of its currently allocated weekly U.S.-Colombia frequencies, and, if not, to which carrier they should be allocated. While American need not file an application for exemption or certificate authority, it nevertheless must conform to the other evidentiary requirements of the proceeding with respect to its proposed use of the seven frequencies. American should use the supplement, answer, and reply portions of the procedural schedule to support retaining the seven frequencies. We have received an application from Delta, JetBlue, and Spirit, in which each carrier seeks authority to provide service in the U.S.-Colombia market and for the allocation of frequencies to provide such service. We will consolidate the applications of Delta (OST-2007-29367), JetBlue (OST-2007-0017), and Spirit (OST-2007-28057), as well as all other responsive pleadings in those Dockets, into this proceeding (OST-2007-0006). Delta, JetBlue, and Spirit may supplement or amend their existing applications by the date specified in this Order for new applications. We also invite other interested U.S. carriers to file applications for certificate or exemption authority to serve the U.S.-Colombia market, and for allocation of combination frequencies. In this proceeding, it will not be necessary to determine whether the public interest requires granting the available U.S.-Colombia authority. As shown, the public interest clearly calls for use of these rights. Our principal objective will be to maximize public benefits that will result from award of the authority in this case. In this regard, we will consider which applicant will most likely offer and maintain service that best meets the needs of the traveling and shipping public. We are establishing the following procedural schedule for submissions:
