RE:
Waiver request submitted by Daniel Songy, a member of the Southeast Regional Airport Authority, regarding a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing his 2011 Tier 2.1 annual pfd days late.
Facts:
Mr. Songy states that it was an oversight on his part for his failure to timely file. Mr. Songy states that when he received the notice of delinquency, he mistakenly thought it was for the 2012 report. When he realized his mistake, he filed the report.

Mr. Songy states that he serves with no compensation and that he loses lots of wages for his public service. He states if this costs him any more money, he will not serve the public.
