The Proposal The FAA is considering an amendment to the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR Part 71), which would create additional Class E airspace at Atqasuk, AK. The intended effect of this proposal is to create Class E airspace upward from 1,200 ft. above the surface to contain Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at Atqasuk, AK. The FAA Instrument Flight Procedures Production and Maintenance Branch has amended four SIAPs for the Atqasuk Airport. The approaches are (1) Non Directional Beacon (NDB) Runway (RWY) 06, Amendment (Amdt) 1; (2) NDB RWY 24, Amdt 1; (3) Area Navigation (Global Positioning System) (RNAV (GPS)) RWY 06, Amdt 1; and (4) RNAV (GPS) RWY 24, Amdt 1. New Class E controlled airspace extending upward from 1,200 ft. above the surface within the Atqasuk Airport area would be established by this action. The existing 700 ft. Class E5 airspace remains unchanged. The 1,200 ft. airspace is required as a result of two approaches becoming Terminal Arrival Area (TAA) procedures. These procedures require more than the typical amount of controlled airspace near the associated airport. The proposed airspace is sufficient in size to contain aircraft executing instrument procedures at the Atqasuk 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 7400.9N, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated September 1, 2005, and effective September 15, E:\FR\FM\13MRP1.SGM 13MRP1 12648 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 48 / Monday, March 13, 2006 / Proposed Rules 2005, 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 create Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft executing instrument procedures at Atqasuk Airport and represents the FAA’s continuing effort to safely and efficiently use the navigable airspace.

Proposed rule. AGENCY: ACTION: SUMMARY: We propose to modify our regulations dealing with the recovery of benefit overpayments under titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act (the Act), as well as recovery of administrative debts owed to us. Specifically, we propose to modify our regulations to implement statutory authority for the use of Federal Salary Offset (FSO). FSO is a process whereby the salary-paying agency withholds and pays to us up to 15 percent of the debtor’s disposable pay until the debt has been repaid. In the case of title II program overpayment debts, we would apply FSO to collect only overpayments made to a person after he or she attained age 18, and we PO 00000 Frm 00015 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 would pursue FSO after that person ceases to be a beneficiary and we determine that the overpayment is otherwise unrecoverable under section 204 of the Act. In the case of title XVI program overpayment debts, these same restrictions apply, but we must determine the overpayment to be otherwise unrecoverable under section 1631(b) of the Act, rather than section 204 of the Act. FSO is only applicable if the debtor is a Federal employee. DATES: To be sure your comments are considered, we must receive them no later than May 12, 2006.

The Proposal

    The FAA is considering an amendment to the Code of Federal 
Regulations (14 CFR Part 71), which would create additional Class E 
airspace at Atqasuk, AK. The intended effect of this proposal is to 
create Class E airspace upward from 1,200 ft. above the surface to 
contain Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at Atqasuk, AK.
    The FAA Instrument Flight Procedures Production and Maintenance 
Branch has amended four SIAPs for the Atqasuk Airport. The approaches 
are (1) Non Directional Beacon (NDB) Runway (RWY) 06, Amendment (Amdt) 
1; (2) NDB RWY 24, Amdt 1; (3) Area Navigation (Global Positioning 
System) (RNAV (GPS)) RWY 06, Amdt 1; and (4) RNAV (GPS) RWY 24, Amdt 1. 
New Class E controlled airspace extending upward from 1,200 ft. above 
the surface within the Atqasuk Airport area would be established by 
this action. The existing 700 ft. Class E5 airspace remains unchanged. 
The 1,200 ft. airspace is required as a result of two approaches 
becoming Terminal Arrival Area (TAA) procedures. These procedures 
require more than the typical amount of controlled airspace near the 
associated airport. The proposed airspace is sufficient in size to 
contain aircraft executing instrument procedures at the Atqasuk

    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 
7400.9N, 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 
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 create Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain 
aircraft executing instrument procedures at Atqasuk Airport and 
represents the FAA's continuing effort to safely and efficiently use 
the navigable airspace.
