Rules of Practice for Proceedings Concerning Airport Fees

This notice proposes to establish specific procedural rules under which the Department of Transportation will handle complaints by air carriers and foreign air carriers for a determination of the reasonableness of a fee increase or newly established fee imposed upon the carrier by the owner or operator of an airport. This notice also proposes rules that would apply to requests by the owner or operator of an airport for such a determination. The rulemaking is intended to respond to the mandate in the recently enacted Federal Aviation Administration Authorization Act of 1994 requiring the Department to issue regulations establishing procedures for acting upon such complaints by air carriers and requests by airport owners and operators.
