7526 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 27 / Tuesday, February 10, 2015 / Notices 

1Language expanding the scope of the Bank 

Secrecy Act to intelligence or counter-intelligence 

activities to protect against international terrorism 

was added by Section 358 of the Uniting and 

Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate 

Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism 

Act of 2001, P.L. 107–56. 

Docket No. 2004–19380). Both UPS and 

United claim that the information, 

although ten years old, is so sensitive 

that each company would suffer 

‘‘competitive harm’’ if the BTS releases 

the information. 

In its letter, UPS maintains that the 

information is still ‘‘commercially 

sensitive’’ based on three main points: 

(1) Disclosure of the data diminishes 

competition among the major aircraft 

manufacturers; engine manufacturers, 

and new and used aircraft owners and 

lessors who can use the commercially 

sensitive data to closely track UPS’ 

acquisition and retirement costs; (2) 

disclosure of the data impairs 

competition among competing domestic 

and foreign airlines in the international 

arena, because United States airlines are 

required to reveal major elements of 

their cost structures when their foreign 

competitors are not; and (3) the 

Securities and Exchange Commission 

(SEC) has determined that these data 

should be withheld from public 

disclosure. 

In addition, UPS requested that the 

Department withhold the information 

under Exemptions 3 and 4 of the 

Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) (See 

5 U.S.C. 552(b)(3) and 4)). Exemption 3 

allows the withholding of information if 

the disclosure is prohibited by another 

statute and the statute either: ‘‘(A) 

requires that the matters be withheld 

from the public in such a manner as to 

leave no discretion on the issue, or (B) 

establishes particular criteria for 

withholding or refers to particular types 

of matters to be withheld;’’ (see 5 U.S.C. 

552(b)(3)). UPS stated that a provision 

in the United States Code (see 49 U.S.C. 

40115) qualifies as an Exemption 3 

statute in that the statute allows the 

Department to order certain information 

withheld from public disclosure if the 

disclosure would ‘‘have an adverse 

effect on the competitive position of an 

air carrier in foreign air transportation.’’ 

(See 49 U.S.C. 40115(a)(2)(B)). 

In light of its objections, UPS 

requested that ‘‘the Department 

continue to afford confidential 

treatment to Form 41, Schedules B–7 

and B–43 and that such confidential 

treatment be continued indefinitely or, 

at a minimum, for [another] ten (10) 

years.’’ 

United requested an extension based 

on the fact that prices have changed 

little since the 1992 to 1996 period. 

According to United, its ‘‘747s delivered 

in 1994 . . . have aircraft/engine prices 

which are the same as the prices of the 

later delivered 747s, except for some 

minor changes due to price escalation 

provisions and any minor configuration 

changes.’’ United also claimed that 

Exemptions 3 and 4 of FOIA protected 

this information from disclosure. United 

also cited the fact that the SEC had 

provided a period of confidentiality for 

this information. Thus, United 

requested that the BTS extend its period 

of confidentiality until December 31, 

2006, the expiration date for the SEC 

confidentiality period. 

Ten years have passed since the 

initial confidential treatment period, 

and BTS is again asking whether we 

should increase the confidentiality 

period for certain airframe and aircraft 

engine cost data, or release the data to 

the public.
