SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 

2, 2007, Southwest submitted a request 

to FAA for approval to re-initiate 

scheduled passenger service at SFO 

commencing August 26, 2007. 

Southwest had served SFO until 

February 2001, but discontinued 

service. As required by Title 14 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR 

119.51), Southwest applied to the FAA 

to amend Southwest’s OpSpecs to 

include SFO, thereby authorizing 

Southwest to conduct scheduled SFO 

service. The request to the FAA detailed 

Southwest’s startup plans, commencing 

on August 26, 2007, with 18 daily 

landing/take-off cycles (LTOs), which 

would produce emissions below the 

General Conformity de minimis 

thresholds, and contained other 

information for the FAA to conduct the 

environmental review required under 

the regulations implementing the 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) (40 CFR parts 1500–1508), 

Section 176(c) of the Clean Air Act 

(CAA) (40 CFR 93.150 et seq.), and by 

FAA Order 1050.1E Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures. FAA 

issued an OpSpec to Southwest for this 

initial level of operations accompanied 

by a NEPA environmental categorical 

exclusion determining that the 18 daily 

LTOs were below de minimis thresholds 

and were not regionally significant. 

Southwest wishes to grow their 

operations to 40 LTOs within 2 years.
