Waiver request submitted by James Douglas Thornton, New Orleans Aviation Board, regarding a $250 late fee assessed for filing his amended 2022 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 5 days late. |

James Douglas Thornton has served on the New Orleans Aviation Board since 2010. He inadvertently overlooked the signature block on the disclosure. Once he learned of this error, he immediately amended the form, but it was five days past the deadline. Mr. Thornton's position as Executive Vice President of ASM Global requires considerable travel. He believes travel and his workload caused the delayed submission. Please note that the original 2020 disclosure was submitted on time. Mr. Thornton would like to thank you for your consideration and is prepared to pay the fine if that is the decision, but again, he would like to ask that you consider this unintentional occurrence.
