the services authorized.

Under authority assigned by the Department in its regulations, 14 CFR
Part 385, we found that (1) our

action was consistent with Department policy; (2) grant of the exemption
authority was consistent with the public interest; and (3) grant of the
authority would not constitute a major regulatory action under the
Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975.  To the extent not granted,
we denied all requests in the referenced Docket.  We may amend, modify,
or revoke the authority granted in this Notice at any time without
hearing at our discretion.
