ORDER REQUESTING PROPOSALS

Summary

By this order, the Department is requesting proposals by June 1, 2011, from carriers 

interested in providing essential air service (EAS) at these eleven Kodiak, Alaska,

communities for a new two-year period, beginning June 1, 2011, with or without subsidy. 

Background

By Order 2009-4-23, April 28, 2009, the Department selected Redemption, Inc., d/b/a Island 

Air Service, (Island Air) to provide subsidized EAS at these eleven communities, through 

October 31, 2011. Under that order, the Department authorized subsidy for Island Air, as 

follows: 

Community Peak Flights per Week

Off-Peak Flights

Per Week

Total IntermediateStops 

Allowed on Each Round Trip1

Alitak 3 1 2

Moser Bay 3 1 2

Olga Bay 3 1 2

Amook Bay 2 1 2

Kitoi Bay 2 1 2

Port Bailey 2, 1 2

Port Williams 2 1 2

Seal Bay 2 1 2

Uganik 2 1 2

West Point 2 1 2

Zachar Bay 2 1 2

All of the service was to be provided with 6-seat DHC-2 (Beaver) aircraft for a total annual 

subsidy of $146,061. 

 

1 For example, for a round trip routed Kodiak-Olga Bay-Moser Bay-Alitak-Kodiak, Moser Bay has one 

intermediate stop in each direction, but a total of two for each round trip.

Request for Proposals

As the end of the current rate term approaches, we are hereby requesting proposals from 

carriers interested in providing service at the Kodiak 11, with or without subsidy, for the twoyear period beginning November 1, 2011. Carriers should file their proposals by June 1. 

Staff will then docket the proposals, thereby making them public. Shortly afterwards, we will 

provide a summary of the proposals to the communities and State and ask them to submit 

their final comments. We will give full consideration to all proposals filed in a timely

manner.2 

Interested carriers should prepare their proposals with every expectation that their initial 

proposals will also be their final and only proposals. We retain the discretion to negotiate 

proposals with carriers when we deem it desirable. We also retain the discretion to reject 

outright all unreasonable or unrealistic proposals and, if necessary, solicit a new round of 

proposals. However, we anticipate that negotiation or rejection will remain only

occasional exceptions to the rule.

We are here providing interested carriers with some basic information to serve as 

guidance when they prepare their proposals, but we will not prescribe a precise format for 

their proposals. We expect proposals to adequately describe the service being proposed 

and the annual amount of subsidy being requested. The applicants can make their own 

judgments as to the level of detail they wish to present; however, they might want to 

include proposed schedules as well as supporting data for their subsidy requests, such as 

projected block hours, revenues, and expenses. We strongly encourage clear, welldocumented proposals that will facilitate their evaluation by the affected communities

and the Department. We do not anticipate any change in our selection criteria, or in the 

general provisions governing subsidy payments for essential air service.3 

With specific respect to the Kodiak 11, we expect proposals consisting of service 

consistent with the historical service pattern, outlined in the table above. However, 

because of decreasing traffic, we request proposals having two round trips a week in the 

18-week peak period at Alitak, Moser Bay, and Olga Bay, in lieu of the three round trips 

a week currently provided. We note, too, that Moser Bay and Olga Bay generated no 

passengers, freight, or mail in the first quarters of 2010 and 2011, so we expect proposals 

offering no service at those communities in the first quarters of 2012 and 2013. If there is 

traffic during those time periods, we would anticipate that the carrier could drop down on 

those few occasions at those communities on a flagstop basis. 

 

2 Carriers should not expect the Department to accept late filings. In cases where a carrier proposes to 

provide essential air service without subsidy and we determine that service can be reliably provided without 

such compensation, we do not proceed with the carrier-selection case. Instead, we simply rely on that 

carrier’s subsidy-free service as proposed.

3In selecting a carrier to provide subsidized essential air service in Alaska, 49 U.S.C. 41733(c) (1) directs 

us to consider five factors. (1) service reliability; (2) contractual and marketing arrangements with a larger 

carrier at the hub; (3) interline arrangements with a larger carrier at the hub; (4) community views; and 

(5) experience of the applicant in providing, in Alaska, scheduled air service or significant non-scheduled 

air service. In addition, The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2008, Public Law 110-161, provides that 

when selecting a carrier to provide EAS, the Department may consider the relative subsidy requirements, 

thus codifying a factor that we have considered since the inception of the program. Interested carriers 

should also be aware that our general provisions governing essential air service will be included in the 

selection order as part of our authorization of subsidy for the selected service. Appendix C of this order 

contains those general provisions.
-3-

We encourage proposals that meet the communities’ requirements in an efficient manner. 

Carriers are also welcome to propose more than one service option, if they choose; they

need not limit themselves to the requested service pattern if they envision other, 

potentially more attractive service possibilities – different hubs, or longer terms for the 

contracted service – with subsidy requirements that remain competitive.

We encourage carriers to work with the communities in advance of the due date for 

proposals when proposals can still be adjusted so that they can craft them to best meet the 

communities’ needs. In addition, carriers should be very clear as to whether a specific 

community’s proposal may be considered on a stand-alone basis, or whether it should be 

considered as part of a larger, inseparable package with another community. As always, 

we will fully consider the communities’ views before making a long-term carrierselection decision. 

New Filing Procedures

Carrier proposals should be submitted to the Department with all materials merged into a 

single document. In addition, because the document will be published on 

Regulations.gov, each page should be formatted to be viewed online.

Historical Traffic

In order to assist carriers in making their traffic and revenue projections, we have 

included historical traffic for the communities in Appendix B. 

Other Carrier Requirements

The Department is responsible for implementing various Federal statutes governing lobbying 

activities, drug-free workplaces, and nondiscrimination.4 Consequently, all carriers receiving 

Federal subsidy to support essential air service must certify that they are in compliance with 

Department regulations regarding drug-free workplaces and nondiscrimination, and those 

carriers whose subsidies exceed $100,000 over the life of the rate term must also certify that 

they are in compliance with the regulations governing lobbying activities. Because the 

Department is prohibited from paying subsidy to carriers that do not submit these documents, 

the selected carrier will be required to submit them in order to receive subsidy. Interested 

carriers requiring more detailed information regarding these requirements, as well as copies of 

the certifications, should contact the Office of Aviation Analysis at (202) 366-5903. The 

Department is prohibited from paying subsidy to carriers that do not submit these documents.

Community Comments

Civic officials and the State are welcome to submit comments on the proposals at any time. 

As noted earlier, we will provide a summary of the proposals to the civic parties and ask 

them to submit their final comments shortly after June 1, the due date for carrier proposals.

This order is issued under authority delegated in 49 CFR 1.56a(f) and re-delegated to the 

Director, Office of Aviation Analysis.

 

4 The certifications are available on the web at http://ostpxweb.dot.gov/aviation/index.html.

Appendix C

Example of General Terms and Conditions for Essential Air Service

The carrier understands that it may forfeit its compensation for any flights that it does not 

operate in conformance with the terms and stipulations of the rate order, including the 

service plans outlined in the order and any other significant elements of the required 

service, without prior approval. The carrier understands that an aircraft take-off and 

landing at its scheduled destination constitutes a completed flight; absent an explanation 

supporting subsidy eligibility for a flight that has not been completed, such as certain 

weather cancellations, only completed flights are considered eligible for subsidy. In 

addition, if the carrier does not schedule or operate its flights in full conformance with the 

order for a significant period, it may jeopardize its entire subsidy claim for the period in 

question. If the carrier contemplates any such changes beyond the scope of the order 

during the applicable period of these rates, it must first notify the Office of Aviation 

Analysis in writing and receive written approval from the Department to be ensured of 

full compensation. Should circumstances warrant, the Department may locate and select 

a replacement carrier to provide service on these routes. The carrier must complete all 

flights that can be safely operated; flights that overfly points for lack of traffic will not be 

compensated. In determining whether subsidy payment for a deviating flight should be 

adjusted or disallowed, the Department will consider the extent to which the goals of the 

program are met and the extent of access to the national air transportation system 

provided to the communities.

If the Department unilaterally, either partially or completely, terminates or reduces 

payments for service or changes service requirements at a specific location provided for 

under this order, then, at the end of the period for which the Department does make 

payments in the stipulated amounts or at the stipulated service levels, the carrier may

cease to provide service to that specific location without regard to any requirement for 

notice of such cessation. Those adjustments in the levels of subsidy and/or service that 

are mutually agreed to in writing by the Department and carrier do not constitute a total 

or partial reduction or cessation of payment.

Subsidy contracts are subject to, and incorporate by reference, relevant statutes and 

Department regulations, as they may be amended from time to time. However, any such 

statutes, regulations, or amendments thereto shall not operate to controvert the foregoing 

paragraph.

Funds are not currently available for performance under this solicitation beyond 

[DATE]. The Department’s obligation for performance under this solicitation beyond 

[DATE], is contingent upon the availability of appropriated funds from which payment 

for services can be made. No legal liability on the part of the Government for any

payment may arise for performance under this order beyond [DATE], until funds are 

made available to the Department for performance. If funds are not made available for 

performance beyond [DATE], the carrier will receive notice in writing by the 

Department.

All claims for payment must be submitted within 60 days of the last day of service 

provided under this order
