To Whom It May Concern: '-..J 

My name is T'i~othy' Dwih and I aln !he ~~~f. P~~t-ai_~o~~_!{~~:o,pters located 1n Elimgkri Ct. 

Northeast Heliooirtcis OpemieS uhderf4 CFR Part f3S and 91:'147 With pilots common to both. We are 

required to have a separate Drug and Alcohol Testing Program for each operation. 

I would like to request an exemption from the regulation that requires us to have two separate Drug and 

Alcohol~'festing P,r()grams. 

'' ' \ 

NortheaSt Helicopters is a small operatio~ It operates with 4 helicopters, 5 pilots and 1 mechanic . 

...... The mon{ly;tinuHmd.~el Costofmainta,ning two.~ Drug and Alcohol Testing Programs 

would be burdensome to·the company (lue to its size and staffing. 

Granting the exemption would benefit the public as a whole by allowing the company to keep its costs 

lower having to maintain,only.one Drug and.Alephol Te;stingProgram. ... • ; • > ~ • .... •• 

Granting the exemption would not have any impact on the level of safety. All persons on the program will 

be held to the standard of the ~an«i Alcohol Testing Program and under the supervision of the Chief 

Pilot. · · 

In SUJlllll8lY, during these difficult times, small operators who operate under 14 CFR 135 and 91 should not 

have to be burdened with maintaining two separate Drug and Alcohol Testing Programs when one 

program is sufficient due to tbe.size of the o~on. . . 

Thank yo':l for your time and-consideration on this reque~Jiookforward to hearing from you.
