__________________________________________)

APPLICATION OF UNIFORM YANKEE JULIET AIR INC.

FOR RENEWAL OF EXEMPTION

 

Uniform Yankee Juliet Air Inc. (“UYJ”) hereby applies, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 40109 

and Subpart C of the Department’s Rules of Practice, for renewal of its exemption from 49 

U.S.C. § 41301 previously granted in this docket. UYJ requests renewal of this exemption for a 

period of not less than two years.

In support of this application, UYJ respectfully states as follows:

1. On October 11, 2011, the Department renewed UYJ’s authority in this docket for 

a period of two years to “conduct scheduled and charter foreign air transportation of persons, 

property, and mail between any point or points in Canada and any point or points in the United 

States, and other charter flights in accordance with 14 CFR Part 212.” Notice of Action Taken, 

October 11, 2011. 

2. Renewal of this exemption authority remains consistent with the open skies Air 

Transport Agreement Between the Government of the United States of America and the 
Application of UYJ Air for

Renewal of Exemption

2

Government of Canada. Moreover, the public interest will be served by the continued 

availability of UYJ’s air service options.

3. UYJ continues to hold the appropriate operating authority from the Government 

of Canada for the services described herein. In addition, UYJ continues in all respects to be fit, 

willing, and able to perform the services contemplated by this renewal application. 

4. UYJ will accept all terms, limitations, and conditions that the Department 

normally attaches to exemption authority for foreign air transportation, and UYJ will comply 

with the provisions of the Transportation Code as well as the rules, regulations, and requirements 

issued thereunder. 

5. Renewal of this exemption authority will not constitute a “major regulatory 

action” under the Energy and Conservation Act of 1975, as defined in section 313.4(a)(1) of the 

Department’s regulations. 

5. Pursuant to section 377.10(a) of the Department’s regulations, UYJ states its 

intention to rely upon the automatic extension provisions of 5 U.S.C. § 558(c), as implemented 

by Part 377, to continue in effect its current exemption authority for the service specified in this 

application, pending a final determination by the Department.
