Docket No. 88010

By letter dated April 7, 1988, Sabourin Lake Airways Limited was advised that no objections to its application were filed and that a licence would be issued subject to it meeting the requirements of the Agency set out in paragraph 72(2)(a) of the National Transportation Act, 1987, S.C. 1987, c. 34.

Sabourin Lake Airways Limited has now met the requirements of the Agency.

Accordingly, the Agency will issue to Sabourin Lake Airways Limited a licence to operate a Class 3 Specific Point domestic service serving the points Cochenour and North Spirit Lake, Ontario.

To ensure that the level of service on a Class 3 basis is consistent with demand, the Agency finds it in the public interest to authorize the Licensee to use fixed wing aircraft in Groups A, B and C.

Moreover, to facilitate the provision of Class 3 services to temporary resources development points, where such services do not duplicate services of another unit toll carrier, the Agency finds it in the public interest to authorize Sabourin Lake Airways Limited to commence service to such points provided that the addition and operation of such services are in accordance with the conditions set out in the attachment.

The licence to be issued pursuant to this Decision shall, in addition to the conditions prescribed by the Air Transportation Regulations, SOR 88-58, be subject to the conditions respecting Appendix "A" points contained in the attachment, which are hereby made a part of this Decision, and to the following condition:

The Licensee is authorized to use fixed wing aircraft in Groups A, B and C.
