Dear Mr. Weiss: 

This letter is to inform you that we are unable to process your request for an exemption from 

part 147 of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR). It explains why we can not 

process your request, gives you some important information about how we have handled 

similar requests, and tells you what you should do in the next 30 days. 

Why We Can Not Process Your Request

We entered your November 19, 2015, exemption request for Delaware Technical & 

Community College into the public docket (No. FAA-2015-6455), but we are unable to 

process your request any further. The information you sent does not comply with the 

requirements of § 11.81 (copy enclosed). For us to consider the request any further, you must 

send us all of the following: 

 The specific section or sections of 14 CFR from which you seek relief, the extent of the 

relief you seek, and the reason you seek relief. 

 The reasons granting the request would be in the public interest; that is, how it would 

benefit the public as a whole. 

 The reasons the exemption wouldn’t adversely affect safety or how the exemption would 

provide a level of safety at least equal to that provided by the rule from which you seek an 

exemption. 

 Any more information, views, or arguments available to support your request.

further.
