ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Rule
This action establishes Class
D airspace at Castle Airport, Atwater,
CA. A contract Airport Traffic Control
Tower (ATCT) is being established at
Castle Airport, Atwater, CA, which will
meet criteria for Class D airspace. Class
D airspace is required when the ATCT
is open, and to contain and protect
Standard Instrument Approach
Procedures (SIAPs) and other
Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations
at the airport. This action would
establish Class D airspace extending
upward from the surface to 2,500 feet
Mean Sea Level (MSL) within a 4.5
nautical mile radius of the airport.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, January 18,
2007. The Director of the Federal
Register approves this incorporation by
reference action under title 1, Code of
Federal Regulations, part 51, subject to
the annual revision of FAA Order
7400.9 and publication of conforming
amendments.

This amendment to 14 CFR part 71
establishes Class D airspace at Castle
Airport, Atwater, CA. An Airport Traffic
Tower (ATCT) is being established at
Castle Airport, Atwater, CA, which will
meet criteria for Class D airspace.
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. Therefore, this regulation: (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.

Adoption of the Amendment
History
On November 13, 2006, the FAA
proposed to amend Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations part 71 (CFR part
71) to establish Class D airspace at
Castle Airport, Atwater, CA, (71FR
66144). An ATCT is being contracted at
Castle Airport, and Class D airspace is
required during the hours the ATCT is
open. Class D controlled airspace is
necessary for the safety of aircraft
executing SIAPs and other IFR
operations at Castle Airport. Class D
airspace will be effective during
specified dates and times established in
advance by a Notice to Airmen. The
effective date and time will, thereafter,
be published in the Airport/Facility
Directory.
Interested parties were invited to
participate in this rule making
VerDate Aug<31>2005
proceeding by submitting written
comments on the proposal to the FAA.
No comments were received. Class D
airspace designations for airspace areas
extending upward from the surface of
the earth are published in Paragraph
5000 of FAA Order 7400.9P, dated
September 1, 2006, and effective
September 15, 2006, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class D airspace designations
listed in this document would be
published subsequently in the Order.

The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by
establishing four high altitude reporting
points, AYZOL, BORAN, EMSOW, and
TIBOY in Alaska. The FAA has
determined these reporting points are
needed to support the NAS. This action
improves air safety and facilitates the
management of air traffic in Alaska.
Since this action involves the
designation of reporting points already
in use by ATC, no additional impact
will be incurred by the public.
Therefore, I find that notice or public
procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) is
impractical and contrary to the public
interest.
Alaskan High Altitude Reporting
Points are published in paragraph 7005
of FAA Order 7400.9P September 1,
2006, and effective September 15, 2006,
which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1. The Alaskan High Altitude
Reporting Points listed in this document
will be published subsequently in the
Order.
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. Therefore, this proposed
regulation: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under Executive
Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant

no extraordinary circumstances exist
that warrant preparation of an
