System, which describes the application procedure.

The Proposal

    The FAA is considering an amendment to the Code of Federal 
Regulations (14 CFR part 71), by adding Class E airspace at Emmonak, 
AK. The intended effect of this proposal is to revise Class E airspace 
upward from 700 ft. above the surface to contain Instrument Flight 
Rules (IFR) operations at Emmonak, AK.
    The FAA Instrument Flight Procedures Production and Maintenance 
Branch has amended the SIAPs for the Emmonak Airport. The amended 
approaches are (1) Area Navigation (Global Positioning System) (RNAV 
GPS) Runway (RWY) 16, Amdt 1; (2) RNAV (GPS) RWY 34, Amdt 1; (3) Very 
High Frequency Omni-range (VOR) RWY 16, Amdt 1; and (4) VOR RWY 34, 
Amdt 1. Revised Class E controlled airspace extending upward from 700 
ft above the surface would be created by this action. The proposed 
airspace is sufficient to contain aircraft executing the amended 
instrument procedures for the Emmonak Airport.
    The area would be depicted on aeronautical charts for pilot 
reference. The coordinates for this airspace docket are based on North 
American Datum 83. The Class E airspace areas designated as 700/1200 
foot transition areas are published in paragraph 6005 in FAA Order 
7400.9M, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 30, 
2004, and effective September 16, 2004, which is incorporated by 
reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in 
this document would be published subsequently in the Order.
    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves 
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and 
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. 
It, therefore --(1) is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under 
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT 
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); 
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the 
anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that 
will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is 
certified that this rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant 
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the 
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is 
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106 
describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, 
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's 
authority.
    This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in 
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart 1, Section 40103, Sovereignty and use of 
airspace. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing 
regulations to ensure the safe and efficient use of the navigable 
airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because 
it proposes to revise Class E airspace sufficient to contain aircraft 
executing the amended instrument approaches at Emmonak Airport and 
represents the FAA's continuing effort to safely and efficiently use 
the navigable airspace.
