Box 680 Kenai, Alaska 99611 Dear Mr. Brighton: Kenai Municipal Airport - Terminal Building We are in receipt of Mr. Delahay's letter of August 11, 1981 requesting that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) reconsider its position as stated in our letter to you of August 4, 1981. We have reviewed the objections expressed by Mr. Delahay to the suggestions offered by us, as well as those offered by Seair. We continue to believe that the problem is one which is resolvable if a positive approach toward a solution is persued by the parties, whether through the methods we suggested or through some other approach. We also believe it is within the power of the City of Kenai to overcome all of those obstacles which Mr. Delahay would suggest preclude any accommodations being made to allow Seair to provide a level of service at Kenai Airport similar to that allowed to incumbent carriers. The probleras existing at Kenai Airport are in no way unique; and many airports hava been faced with the necessity. in meeting the requirements of Section 303(a) of the Federal '.viatien Act of 1953, of having to make accommodations,within existing fxciiities, to allow service by carriers who are new entrants into the market. In litany cases it has required that the airport operator modify its existing leases to require that incumbent carriers share existing counter space with new entrants. To do otheirwise, results in the abdication of the airport operator's responsibility to desist from giving right and privilege to some carriers which work to the exclusion of others which are also so entitled. tie continue to believe that the City of Kenai is unreasonably and unjustifiably constraining Seair's attempt to provide service at the airport and that for the city to retrain in compliance with its obligations under the grant agree- ments and erection 303(a), it .rill be necessary that a suitable solution to Seair's request be developed within the titne frame previously established.

Box 580 Kenai, AK 99611 Dear Mayor: In view of the upcoming construction at the Municipal Airport which will cause some displacement of the carriers ticketing operations within the terminal, Sea Airmotive Airlines will be happy to frame in the front porch area of the present terminal at its own expense in order to facilitate SEAIR's accomodation at the terminal at the present time and the accomodation of the displaced carriers on a temporary basis during the course of the remodeling and expansion of the terminal. SEAIR would be happy to share its counter with other carriers during the construction or other counters could be placed in the porch area. I would appreciate it very much if the Council will consider this proposal along with our request of June 11, 1981, at its next Council Meeting on August 19. If any serious consideration is given to locating a trailer in front of the terminal area, SEAIR would be happy to utilize the trailer for its ticketing and baggage handling rather than displacing the car rental agencies from the terminal. If SEAIR is allowed to sell tickets inside the terminal, we will be happy to handle our baggage in such a way as to avoid any danger to persons using the terminal. Thank you for your consideration.
