2648 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 10 / Thursday, January 15, 2009 / Notices 

hourly average of 71 scheduled 

operations. In reaching and maintaining 

this level, the FAA will retire Operating 

Authorizations in the order in which the 

air carriers’ commitments to reduce 

service are received and will notify an 

air carrier if any Operating 

Authorization that it is voluntarily 

offering to relinquish could be subject to 

reallocation. The FAA also notes that 

paragraphs A.6 and A.7 of the ordering 

paragraphs related to minimum usage 

requirements and the associated 

reallocation principles continue to 

apply to all Operating Authorizations 

that are not surrendered to the FAA and 

retired. 

In order to receive credit for the 

voluntary reduction in the future, an air 

carrier must present its offer to reduce 

scheduled service at LaGuardia no later 

than February 2, 2009. If an air carrier 

wishes to offer a voluntary reduction in 

scheduled service at LaGuardia, an 

authorized representative of the carrier 

must contact the individual identified 

in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

CONTACT section of this document. In 

addition, air carriers must return all 

voluntarily surrendered Operating 

Authorizations to the FAA no later than 

May 31, 2009. 

Accordingly, paragraph A.1 of the 

FAA’s December 27, 2006 order limiting 

operations at LaGuardia, as previously 

amended, is amended as follows: 

1. The final Order governs scheduled 

arrivals and departures, except 

helicopters, at LaGuardia from 6 a.m. 

through 9:59 p.m., Eastern Time, 

Monday through Friday, and from 12 

noon through 9:59 p.m., Eastern Time, 

Sunday. Seventy-one (71) Operating 

Authorizations are available per hour 

and will be assigned by the FAA on a 

30-minute basis. The FAA will permit 

additional, existing operations above 

this threshold; however, the FAA will 

retire Operating Authorizations that are 

surrendered to the FAA, withdrawn for 

non-use, or unassigned during each 

affected hour until the number of 

Operating Authorizations in that hour 

reaches seventy-one (71).
