aid by helicopter, would build no roads, and would service the
navigational aid by persons on foot, or in the winter by snow-
mobile; and would initially bury the last thirty to forty feet
of utilities cable, and thereafter, if it proposed to continue
use of the navigational aid, would bury all utilities cables
by one year from its installation, and
WHEREA~ the radio navigational aid as proposed by
Aspen Airways can be used only by it and by no other commercial
or private cariers or by private planes,

County Commissioners approve the installation of the naviga-
tional aid as proposed by Aspen Airways upon the following terms
and conditions:
1. The navigational aid will be installed by heli-
copter, no roads will be made, the cables will be buried as
indicated above.
2. After the installation of the navigational aid
and throughout the period of its use, Aspen Airways shall limit
its flights to and from Aspen to a total of 880 passengers
landing, and 880 passengers departing in any one day, such
limitation to remain in effect unless permission to vary there-
from is sought from the Airport Authority and this Board.
3. In the event that through changes in technology,

proposed to be used by Aspen Airways, no such use shall be
permitted without Aspen Airways and the proposed new user
