(1'": .. ,"::): -J co Date: March 17, 2004 Scope of Services The Boyd Group/ASRC, Inc., hereby provides its proposal to assist Marathon Airport in crafting an effective application for funding under the Small Community Air Service Development Program. This Scope of Services is expressly contingent upon the results of an air service feasibility analysis. Basic Objectives The intent of congress for the SCASD Program is to provide funding to identify and alleviate demonstrable air service deficiencies at small and rural communities. In this program, the Department of Transportation has allowed wide latitude regarding the definition of "deficiency." In the case of Marathon, there is no question regarding the deficiency of air service. Therefore, the objective of the grant would be the recruitment, support, and risk-abatement programs necessary to assure establishment of scheduled air service that provides connectivity with the air transport system. The specific uses of the requested funds will be outlined in the grant application, and will be determined based on the type of service that the Feasibility Study will identify, assuming that the Study determines that the airport and area has a reasonable chanci of supporting such service. Oeliverables . \ The grant application will be prepared in a format that is in accordance with the requirements outlined in the DOT SCASD docket. The application will be inclusive of pertinent data and information to support the pressing need for the community to receive the grant funds. The application will outline the immediate challenges, the remediation activities the funds are intended to support, and the proposed administration of the grant funds. The grant application will encompass the following data and information: · An outline of the current air service picture at Marathon and the in the Keys. · A clear, compelling discussion of the air service improvements grant is to address, and the benefits that will result from the implementation of the intended service. · Route proformas, detailing the costs and revenues generated by the new service. · A clear outline of the proposed mechanics of the grant administration, including passenger revenue goals, support triggers, and discussion of the administration of the funds. The grant application will be prepared and submitted to the appropriate community organization for submission to the Department of Transportation in a timely manner within the Grant Program's timeframe. Upon award of a SCASD grant, the Boyd Group will remain available to assist the community in the application of the funds, including negotiations with Delta. Professional Fees The Boyd Group will prepare the SCASD Grant Application and review it with the community, and assist in the formal filing for a professional services fee of $11,850. The Boyd Group will be available for follow-on work subsequent to grant award at an hourly rate of $225. Project Timeframe Information received from the DOT as of February 23, 2004, indicates that the docket will be issued at the end of February, and perhaps somewhat later. Once the docket is issued, the deadline for filing applications is expected to be 60 days. Based on this, the deadline for filing will likely be on or about May 1, 2004. The Boyd Group will have the grant proposal ready for community review two weeks prior to the deadline.
