If the airport owner or operator of a medium or large hub airport (as define in section 47102 of title 49, U.S.C.) has been unable to accommodate one or more requests by an air carrier for access to gates or other facilities at the airport in order to allow the air carrier to provide service to the airport or to expand service at the airport, the airport owner or operator shall transmit a report to the Secretary that- 1. Describes the request; 2. Provides an explanation as to why the request could not be accommodated; and 3. Provides a time frame within which, if any, the airport will be able to accommodate the requests. b. Such report shall due on either February 1 or August 1 of each year if the airport has been unable to accommodate the request(s) in the six month period prior to the applicable due date.
