(b) Upon the filing of applications for certificates or permits, the commission shall give due notice thereof:

(1) To the public by posting a notice of such application in the office of the secretary of the commission; and

(2) To such persons and by such means as the commission may by reasonable regulation determine.

(c) The commission, upon its own initiative, whenever it deems such action advisable, may conduct an investigation to determine whether additional air transportation appears to be needed, and if, after such investigation, the commission is of the opinion that such procedure is appropriate, it may encourage the filing of applications for certificates authorizing the furnishing of such transportation. If such transportation may be furnished through the extension of existing service, the commission may institute a proceeding to require such extension in accordance with the provisions of Section 37-9-22.
