1Opinion of the Court
TAMM, Circuit Judge:
Petitioner, Air Transport Association of America, seeks review of Civil Aeronautics Board (Board) order OR-204, 48 Fed.Reg. 635 (1983). 1 The order revised the Board’s filing fee schedule and adopted a refund policy for excess fees collected after 1977. Petitioner challenges the order on procedural and substantive grounds. Although the Board’s order is proeedurally sound, we find that its refund policy has an unlawful retroactive effect. Accordingly, we remand this case to the Board for proceedings consistent with this opinion.
