The National Economic Prosecutor (FNE) filed Thursday an application for an injunction before the Tribunal for the Defense of Free Competition (TDLC) against the companies Faasa Chile Servicios Aereos Limitada and Martínez Ridao Chile Limitada for having concluded and signed an agreement aimed at preventing, restricting or impeding competition in the market for fighting and extinguishing forest fires by means of tankers on the national territory during the 2009-2015 seasons. [19659002] The FNE has accused these companies of having agreed to their joint action in the Chilean market and that, in the context of this agreement, they determined the conditions of marketing, the prices and the participation of the bidders in the processes of the 39, public and private purchase. In the July 18th application, the FNE asked the Court to fine Faasa 3,000 annual tax units (AWUs), about US $ 2.6 million and 4,000 AWU (3.5 US $ million) to Martínez Ridao for this conduct
This amount takes into account the severity and temporal extent of the conduct, as well as the fact that virtually all sales badociated with these services, so that their customers, public and private, had to pay the deal prices when they did not have any other offers.
Among these people, there are private forest enterprises and state institutions, such as the National Forestry Corporation (CONAF) and the National Emergency Bureau of the Ministry of the Interior. (ONEMI).
