Modification of Class E Airspace; Peru, IL, 8266-8267 [07-804]

Download as PDF 8266 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 37 / Monday, February 26, 2007 / Rules and Regulations The Rule This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by modifying the Class D airspace area for Luke Air Force Base, AZ. This modification is necessary to contain and protect circling maneuvers for Category E aircraft executing these maneuvers in conjunction with Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) at the airport. This action modifies the existing LUF Class D airspace to extend upward from the surface to, but not including, 4000 feet mean sea level (MSL) and within a 5.6-mile radius of Luke AFB from a point intersecting the northwest portion of the Goodyear Class D airspace clockwise to a point intersecting the northern portion of the Glendale Class D airspace; and within a 4.4 mile radius of Luke AFB from the intersection of the southern portion of the Glendale Class D airspace clockwise to the intersection of the Goodyear Class D airspace; and excluding that portion within the Glendale, AZ, and Goodyear, AZ Class D airspace areas. 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. Therefor, this regulation: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under Department of Transportation 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 Direct Final Rule Procedure

    The FAA anticipates that this regulation would not result in 
adverse or negative comment and, therefore, is issuing it as a direct 
final rule. Previous actions of this nature have not been controversial 
and have not resulted in adverse comments or objections. Unless a 
written adverse or negative comment or a written notice of intent to 
submit an adverse or negative comment is received within the comment 
period, the regulation will become effective on the date specified 
above. After the close of the comment period, the FAA will publish a 
document in the Federal Register indicating that no adverse or negative 
comments were received and confirming the date on which the final rule 
will become effective. If the FAA does receive, within the comment 
period, an adverse or negative comment, or written notice of intent to 
submit such a comment, a document withdrawing the direct final rule 
will be published in the Federal Register, and a notice of proposed 
rulemaking may be published with a new comment period.

Comments Invited

    Interested parties are invited to participate in this rulemaking by 
submitting such written data, views, or arguments, as they may desire. 
Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the views and 
suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing reasoned 
regulatory decisions on the proposal. Comments are specifically invited 
on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic, environmental, and 
energy-related aspects of the proposal. Communications should identify 
both docket numbers and be submitted in triplicate to the address 
listed above. Commenters wishing the FAA to acknowledge receipt of 
their comments on this notice must submit with those comments a self-

Agency Findings

    The regulations adopted herein will not have a substantial direct 
effect on the States, on the relationship between the National 
Government and the States, or on the distribution of power and 
responsibilities among the various levels of government. Therefore, it 
is determined that this final rule does not have federalism 
implications under Executive Order 13132.
    The FAA has determined that this regulation is noncontroversial and 
unlikely to result in adverse or negative comments. For the reasons 
discussed in the preamble, I certify that this regulation (1) is not a 
``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866; (2) is 
not a ``significant rule'' under Department of Transportation (DOT) 
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); 
and (3) if promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact, 
positive or negative, on a substantial number of small entities under 
the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in 
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section, the 
FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of the 
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient 
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority 
since it contains aircraft executing instrument approach procedures in 
Peru, Illinois Valley Regional-Walter A. Duncan Field, IL.
