[Docket No. FAA–2008–0036]
Jkt 214001
Department of Transportation,
Office of the Secretary and Federal
Aviation Administration.
ACTION: Notice of amendment to policy
statement.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This action amends the
Department of Transportation
(‘‘Department’’) ‘‘Policy Regarding the
Establishment of Airport Rates and
Charges’’ published in the Federal
Register on June 21, 1996 (‘‘1996 Rates
and Charges Policy’’). This action
adopts three amendments to the 1996
Rates and Charges Policy (two
modifications and one clarification).
These amendments are intended to
provide greater flexibility to operators of
congested airports to use landing fees to
provide incentives to air carriers to use
the airport at less congested times or to
use alternate airports to meet regional
air service needs. Any charges imposed
on international operations must also
comply with the international
obligations of the United States.
DATES: This policy statement is effective
July 14, 2008.
ADDRESSES: Docket: To read background
documents or comments received, go to

Authority for This Proceeding
This notice is published under the
authority described in Subtitle VII, Part
B, Chapter 471, section 47129 of Title 49
United States Code. Under subsection
(b) of this section, the Secretary of
Transportation is required to publish
policy statements establishing standards
or guidelines the Secretary will use in
determining the reasonableness of
airport fees charged to airlines under
section 47129.
Background
On January 17, 2008, the Department
of Transportation published a notice in
the Federal Register proposing to
amend the Department of
Transportation (‘‘Department’’) ‘‘Policy
Regarding the Establishment of Airport
Rates and Charges’’ published in the
Federal Register on June 21, 1996,
(‘‘1996 Rates and Charges Policy’’ or
‘‘1996 Policy’’). (73 FR 3310, January 17,
2008). The comment period on the
notice was extended to April 3, 2008.
(73 FR 7626, February 8, 2008). The
notice proposed three amendments to
the 1996 Policy (technically two
modifications and one clarification).
These amendments were intended to
provide greater flexibility to operators of
congested airports to use landing fees to
provide incentives to air carriers to use
the airport at less congested times or to
use alternate airports to meet regional
air service needs. The notice noted that
any charges imposed on international
operations must also comply with the
international obligations of the United
States.
Specifically, the notice first proposed
to clarify the 1996 Policy by explicitly
acknowledging that airport operators are
authorized to establish a two-part
landing fee structure consisting of both
an operation charge and a weight-based
charge, in lieu of the standard weightbased charge. Such a two-part fee would
serve as an incentive for carriers to use
larger aircraft and increase the number
of passengers served with the same or
fewer operations. Second, the notice
proposed to expand the ability of the
operator of a congested airport to
include in the airfield fees of a
congested airport a portion of the
