ACTION: SUMMARY: The Department of Transportation is soliciting proposals from communities or consortia of communities interested in receiving a grant under the Small Community Air Service Development Program. The full text of the Department’s order is attached to this document. This year, there are two mandatory requirements for filing of applications, both of which must be completed for a community’s application to be deemed timely and considered by the Department. The first requirement is the submission of the community’s proposal to Dockets, as described below, the second requirement is the filing of SF424 through https://www.grants.gov. By this order, the Department invites proposals from communities and/or consortia of communities interested in obtaining a federal grant under the Small Community Air Service Development Program (Small Community Program) to address air service and airfare problems in their communities. Proposals should be submitted in the above-referenced docket no later than April 7, 2006. Communities should be aware of a new application procedure which requires that applicants also submit form SF424, a standard federal government application form, in Grants.gov. An application will not be deemed complete until and unless all required documents are filed. (See Appendix C for additional information on filing form SF424.) Funding Opportunity FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Aloha Ley, Office of Aviation Analysis, 400 7th Street, SW., Washington, DC 20590, (202) 366–2347. The Small Community Program was established under the Wendell H. Ford Aviation Investment and Reform Act for the 21st Century (AIR–21), Public Law 106–181, as a three-year ‘‘pilot’’ program and was designed to provide financial assistance to small communities to help them enhance their air service. The Department provides this assistance in the form of financial grants. The program was not funded in its first year, fiscal year 2001, but was funded and implemented in each of fiscal years 2002 and 2003. The Vision 100-Century of Aviation Reauthorization Act, Public Law 108– 176 (Vision 100), reauthorized the program for an additional five years, through fiscal year 2008, and eliminated the ‘‘pilot’’ status of the program. The program has been funded for FY 2004, FY 2005 and FY 2006. Under the statute, the Secretary may award a maximum of 40 grants each year that the program is funded, although no more than four grants each year may be to communities in the same state.1 The grants may be made to single 1 See 49 U.S.C. 41743. A copy of the statute is provided in Appendix A. Grant Proposals as well as the SF424 should be submitted no later than April 7, 2006. DATES: Interested parties should submit an original and two copies of their proposals bearing the title ‘‘Proposal under the Small Community Air Service Development Program, Docket OST–2006–23671, as well as the name of the applicant community or consortium of communities, the legal sponsor, and the applicant’s DUNS number to Dockets Operations and Media Management, M–30, Room PL– 401, Department of Transportation, 400 7th Street, SW., Washington, DC 20590. The SF424 is submitted electronically through https://www.grants.gov. ADDRESSES: hsrobinson on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES Overview VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:26 Feb 01, 2006 Jkt 208001 PO 00000 Frm 00068 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 5705 communities or to consortia of communities.2 Communities that are eligible to participate in the grant program are those communities that are served by an airport that was not larger than a small hub airport for calendar year 1997 and had insufficient air service or unreasonably high airfares.3 Communities that do not currently have commercial air service are also eligible, but where they seek grant funds to secure air service under the grant program they must have met or be able to meet in a reasonable period all necessary requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration for the type of service involved in their grant proposals. In selecting communities to participate in the program, the statute directs the Secretary to give priority to those communities where: (a) Average air fares are higher than the air fares for all communities; (b) a portion of the cost of the activity proposed by the community is provided from local, nonairport-revenue resources; (c) a publicprivate partnership has been or will be established to facilitate air carrier service to the public; (d) improved service will bring the material benefits of scheduled air transportation to a broad section of the traveling public, including businesses, educational institutions, and other enterprises whose access to the National air transportation system is limited; and (e) the assistance will be used in a timely fashion. The Small Community Program provides considerable flexibility in how funds can be used to implement a community’s grant proposal. (See 49 U.S.C. 41743(d).) For example, grant funds can be used to cover the expenses of any new advertising or promotional activities related to improving the air service to the community. Funds may also be used for new studies designed to measure air service deficiencies, or to measure traffic loss or diversion to other communities. Another example would be using the funds for the employment or use of new, dedicated air service development staff on a long-term basis, advertising or public relations agencies, universities, and consulting firms. In addition, grant funds may also be used for financial incentives, including subsidy or revenue guarantees, to air carriers in conjunction with their 2 The statute specifies a consortium of communities should be considered as a single entity; therefore, throughout this order we use ‘‘community’’ to include consortia. 3 A small hub is defined as an airport that has at least 0.05%, but less than 0.25%, of the annual passenger boardings in the United States.
