Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2023-1264.
    Petitioner: Midwest ATC Service, Inc.
    Section of 14 CFR Affected: Sec.  65.39(a).
    Description of Relief Sought: Midwest ATC Service, Inc. petitions 
for relief from 14 CFR 65.39(a) regarding the location of training 
under the requirement that an applicant for a facility rating at an air 
traffic control contract tower under the FAA Contract Tower Program 
must serve as an air traffic control tower operator at that control 
tower without a facility rating for at least six months. The petitioner 
proposes to allow recent Embry Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) 
graduates with an Air Traffic Management degree to credit time spent in 
a four-month air traffic control classroom and simulation training 
program at ERAU towards the six-month on-the-job training requirement 
to be eligible for a facility rating.
