under section 6(c). First, interests in the

issuer should be sold only to persons for

whom investments in limited profit,

essentially tax-shelter, investments

would not be unsuitable. Second,

requirements for fair dealing by the

general partner of the issuer with the

limited partners of the issuer should be

included in the basic organizational

documents of the company.

considerations, that the suitability

standards set forth in the Memorandum,

the requirements for fair dealing

provided by the Partnership Agreement,

and pertinent governmental regulations

imposed on each Property Partnership

by various Federal, state, and local

agencies provide protection to

Unitholders comparable to that

provided by the Act. In addition,

applicants assert that the requested

exemption is both necessary and

appropriate in the public interest.

BILLING CODE 4910–62–M

Operations by Canadian and Mexican

Specialty Air Service Operators

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary,

Department of Transportation.

ACTION: Order to Show Cause, Docket

OST–96–1021, Order 96–1–28.

SUMMARY: The Department is inviting

comments on its tentative decision to

grant Canadian and Mexican ‘‘specialty

air service’’ operators a blanket foreign

aircraft permit under 14 CFR Part 375 to

conduct such operations in the United

States, to the extent the operations

covered under the North American Free

Trade Agreement (NAFTA). The specific

specialty air services involved are: aerial

mapping, aerial surveying, aerial

photography, forest fire management,

fire fighting, aerial advertising, glider

towing, parachute jumping, aerial

construction, heli-logging, aerial

sightseeing, flight training, aerial

inspection and surveillance, and aerial

spraying services. NAFTA provides for

the operation of these services on a

phase-in basis, with coverage for some

services already effective, and coverage

for others becoming effective at various

times through January 1, 2000. The

blanket foreign aircraft permit the

Department proposes would remove the

present requirement that operators

obtain prior Department approval, on a

contract-by-contract basis, before

conducting those specialty air services

that are provided for and for which

coverage has become effective under

NAFTA. The authority would be subject

to each operator’s compliance with

applicable regulations and procedures

of the Federal Aviation Administration,

and would be effective until further

order of the Department.

DATES: Objections to the issuance of a

final order in this proceeding are due:

February 7, 1996. If objections are filed,

answers to objections are due: February

14, 1996. Persons filing pleadings

should contact the Department’s Foreign

Air Carrier Licensing Division at the

telephone number listed below for a list

of persons to be served with objections

and answers to objections.

ADDRESSES: All documents in this

proceeding, with appropriate filing

copies, should be filed in Docket OST–

96–1021, addressed to Central Docket
