Revision of Class E Airspace; Yakutat, AK, 61026-61027 [05-21002]

Download as PDF 61026 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 202 / Thursday, October 20, 2005 / Rules and Regulations rule will be added to the draft UMR update. Therefore, for the reasons given in the proposed rule and in this document, we are adopting the proposed rule as a final rule, with the changes discussed in this document. Executive Order 12866 and Regulatory Flexibility Act This rule has been reviewed under Executive Order 12866. The rule has been determined to be not significant for the purposes of Executive Order 12866 and, therefore, has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget. We are amending the tuberculosis regulations by removing the two different definitions of affected herd and replacing them with a single, updated definition. This action is necessary because the definitions that have appeared in the regulations are out-of-date and inconsistent. This action will provide more clarity to the regulations. No economic benefits or costs are associated with this action, which would simply update and clarify our definition of affected herd. This action would have no effect on small entities, other Federal agencies, State governments, or local governments. Under these circumstances, the Administrator of the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service has determined that this action will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Executive Order 12372 This program/activity is listed in the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance under No. 10.025 and is subject to Executive Order 12372, which requires intergovernmental consultation with State and local officials. (See 7 CFR part 3015, subpart V.) requirements, Transportation, Tuberculosis. Accordingly, we are amending 9 CFR part 77 as follows: I PART 77—TUBERCULOSIS 1. The authority citation for part 77 continues to read as follows: I Authority: 7 U.S.C. 8301–8317; 7 CFR 2.22, 2.80, and 371.4. 2. Section 77.2 is amended by adding, in alphabetical order, a definition of affected herd to read as follows: I § 77.2 Definitions. * * * * * Affected herd. A herd of livestock in which there is strong and substantial evidence that Mycobacterium bovis exists. This evidence should include, but is not limited to, any of the following: Histopathology, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay, bacterial isolation or detection, testing data, or epidemiologic evidence such as contact with known sources of infection. * * * * * §§ 77.5 and 77.20 [Amended] 3. Sections 77.5 and 77.20 are amended by removing the definitions of affected herd. I Done in Washington, DC, this 14th day of October 2005. Elizabeth E.

Internet address: https://www.alaska.faa.gov/at. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: History On Friday, June 24, 2005, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to amend the Class E airspace upward from 700 ft. and 1,200 ft. above the surface at Yakutat, AK (70 FR 36542). The action was proposed in order to create Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft while executing three new SIAPs, seven revised SIAPs and one revised departure procedure for the Yakutat Airport. The new approaches are (1) Area Navigation (Global Positioning System) (RNAV (GPS)) Runway (RWY) 02, original; (2) RNAV (GPS) RWY 11, orig.; and (3) RNAV (GPS) RWY 29, orig. The seven revised SIAPs are (1) Direction Finder (DF) RWY 11, amendment (AMDT) 3, (2) Instrument Landing System (ILS) or Localizer (LOC)-Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) RWY 11, orig., (3) LOC–DME-Back Course RWY 29, AMDT 3, (4) Non-directional Radio Beacon RWY 11, AMDT 3, (5) Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range (VOR)–DME RWY 02, AMDT 2, (6) VOR–DME RWY 11, AMDT. 1, and (7) VOR–DME RWY 29, AMDT 1. The Departure Procedure is the FAKES– TWO, AMDT 1. Revised Class E controlled airspace extending upward from 700 ft. above the surface in the Yakutat Airport area is revised by this action. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No public comments have been received; thus the rule is adopted as proposed. The area will 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 700/1,200 ft. transition areas are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9N, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated September 1, 2005, and effective September 15, 2005, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E E:\FR\FM\20OCR1.SGM 20OCR1 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 202 / Thursday, October 20, 2005 / Rules and Regulations airspace designation listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order. The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) originally listed the airport position coordinates incorrectly. Additionally, the airspace description was incomplete. This action corrects these errors. The rule describes exclusions to airspace outside 12 miles from the shoreline. These exclusions will be addressed by another rulemaking action, which will provide the necessary controlled airspace for the SIAPs at Yakutat. Those changes will affect the Offshore Airspace Areas; Gulf of Alaska Low and Control 1487L. The Rule This amendment to 14 CFR part 71 revises Class E airspace at Yakutat, Alaska. This Class E airspace is revised to accommodate aircraft executing three new SIAPs, seven revised SIAPs, one revised departure procedure and will be depicted on aeronautical charts for pilot reference. The intended effect of this rule is to provide adequate controlled airspace for Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) operations at Yakutat Airport, Yakutat, Alaska. The FAA has determined that this 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 a routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this rule 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 VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:59 Oct 19, 2005 Jkt 208001 61027 because it creates Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft executing instrument procedures for the Yakutat Airport and represents the FAA’s continuing effort to safely and efficiently use the navigable airspace.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On Friday, June 24, 2005, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the 
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to amend the Class E 
airspace upward from 700 ft. and 1,200 ft. above the surface at 
Yakutat, AK (70 FR 36542). The action was proposed in order to create 
Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft while executing 
three new SIAPs, seven revised SIAPs and one revised departure 
procedure for the Yakutat Airport. The new approaches are (1) Area 
Navigation (Global Positioning System) (RNAV (GPS)) Runway (RWY) 02, 
original; (2) RNAV (GPS) RWY 11, orig.; and (3) RNAV (GPS) RWY 29, 
orig. The seven revised SIAPs are (1) Direction Finder (DF) RWY 11, 
amendment (AMDT) 3, (2) Instrument Landing System (ILS) or Localizer 
(LOC)-Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) RWY 11, orig., (3) LOC-DME-
Back Course RWY 29, AMDT 3, (4) Non-directional Radio Beacon RWY 11, 
AMDT 3, (5) Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range (VOR)-DME RWY 02, 
AMDT 2, (6) VOR-DME RWY 11, AMDT. 1, and (7) VOR-DME RWY 29, AMDT 1. 
The Departure Procedure is the FAKES-TWO, AMDT 1. Revised Class E 
controlled airspace extending upward from 700 ft. above the surface in 
the Yakutat Airport area is revised by this action. Interested parties 
were invited to participate in this rulemaking proceeding by submitting 
written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No public comments have 
been received; thus the rule is adopted as proposed.
    The area will 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 700/1,200 
ft. transition areas are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 
7400.9N, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated September 1, 
2005, and effective September 15, 2005, which is incorporated by 
reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E

[[Page 61027]]

airspace designation listed in this document will be published 
subsequently in the Order. The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) 
originally listed the airport position coordinates incorrectly. 
Additionally, the airspace description was incomplete. This action 
corrects these errors. The rule describes exclusions to airspace 
outside 12 miles from the shoreline. These exclusions will be addressed 
by another rulemaking action, which will provide the necessary 
controlled airspace for the SIAPs at Yakutat. Those changes will affect 
the Offshore Airspace Areas; Gulf of Alaska Low and Control 1487L.

The Rule

    This amendment to 14 CFR part 71 revises Class E airspace at 
Yakutat, Alaska. This Class E airspace is revised to accommodate 
aircraft executing three new SIAPs, seven revised SIAPs, one revised 
departure procedure and will be depicted on aeronautical charts for 
pilot reference. The intended effect of this rule is to provide 
adequate controlled airspace for Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) 
operations at Yakutat Airport, Yakutat, Alaska.
    The FAA has determined that this 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 a routine matter that will 
only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified 
that this rule 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 creates Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft 
executing instrument procedures for the Yakutat Airport and represents 
the FAA's continuing effort to safely and efficiently use the navigable 
airspace.
