The above action was effective when taken: May 8, 2015 through May 8, 2017.

XX The authority granted is consistent with the 1946 Air Transport Agreement between the United 

States and the United Kingdom, as amended, to which the Government of Grenada acceded upon its 

independence, and with the overall state of aviation relations between the United States and Grenada.

Except to the extent exempted or waived, this authority is subject to the terms, conditions, and limitations 

indicated: XX Holder’s certificates of public convenience and necessity

XX Standard exemption conditions (attached)

On the basis of data officially noticeable under Rule 24(g) of the Department's regulations, we found the 

applicant qualified to provide the exemption services authorized.

Under authority assigned by the Department in its regulations, 14 CFR Part 385, we found that (1) our action 

was consistent with Department policy; (2) grant of the authority was consistent with the public interest; and 

(3) grant of the authority would not constitute a major regulatory action under the Energy Policy and 

Conservation Act of 1975. To the extent not granted, we denied all requests in the referenced Docket. We 

may amend, modify, or revoke the authority granted in this Notice at any time without hearing at our 

discretion.

Persons entitled to petition the Department for review of the action set forth in this Notice under the 

Department’s regulations, 14 CFR §385.30, may file their petitions within seven (7) days after the date of 

issuance of this Notice. This action was effective when taken, and the filing of a petition for review will not 

alter such effectiveness.
