AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This action will remove the
Class D, E2, E4, and E5 airspace at
Utica, NY, and amend the Class D and
E2 airspace at Rome, NY. This action
will also establish Class E5 airspace at
Rome, NY. The Oneida County Airport,
Utica, NY, is permanently closed and no
longer operational, moving aircraft
operations to Griffiss Airfield, Rome,
NY. The closure necessitates the
removal of all Class D and E airspace at
Utica, NY. Subsequently, this action
amends the Class D and E2 airspace at
Rome, NY, published in the Federal
Register on January 25, 2007, (72 FR
3365) but not charted due to
inaccuracies in the legal descriptions.
This action will also establish Class E5
airspace at Rome, NY, to replace the

Class E5 airspace being removed at
Utica, NY. Class D surface area airspace
is required when the control tower is
open to contain Standard Instrument
Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and other
Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations
at the airport. Class E2 surface area
airspace is required when the control
tower is closed to contain SIAPs and
other IFR operations at the airport. Class
E5 airspace extends upward from 700
feet Above Ground Level (AGL) and is
required to contain SIAPs and other IFR
operations at the airport. This action
will amend Class D airspace extending
upward from the surface to and
including 3,000 feet MSL within an 8.4mile radius and Class E2 airspace
within an 8.4-mile radius of the Griffiss
Airfield. This action will also establish
Class E5 airspace extending upward
from 700 feet above the surface within
a 10.9 mile radius of Griffiss Airfield
and within 5 miles each side of the
Griffiss Airfield ILS localizer northwest
course from the 10.9-mile radius to 15
miles northwest of Griffiss Airfield and
within a 26-mile radius of the airport
extending clockwise from a 125° bearing
to 200° bearing from the airport.
DATES: Effective Date: 0901 UTC,
October 25, 2007. The Director of the
Federal Register approves this
incorporation by reference action under
1 CFR, part 51, subject to the annual
revision of FAA Order 7400.9 and
publication of conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On January 1, 2007, the Oneida
County Airport, Utica, NY, was
permanently closed and airport
operations terminated. The closure,
therefore, requires the removal of all
Class D and E airspace at Utica, NY.
Subsequently, operations were moved to
Griffiss Airfield, Rome, NY, and Class D
and E2 airspace areas were established.
An amendment is required to correct
errors in the legal description of the
Class D and E airspace which has
prevented the airspace from being
charted. Establishment of Class E5
airspace at Rome, NY, is required to
replace the Class E5 airspace being
removed at Utica, NY. This rule
becomes effective on the date specified
in the ‘‘Effective Date’’ section. Since
this action eliminates the impact of
controlled airspace on users of airspace
in the vicinity of Utica, NY, and has no

significant impact on the users of the
airspace in the vicinity of the Griffiss
Airfield, Rome, NY, notice and public
procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are not
necessary. Designations for Class D and
E Surface Area Airspace, Class E
Airspace Areas D Surface Area, and
Class E Airspace Areas Extending
Upward from 700 feet or More Above
the Surface of the Earth are published in
paragraphs 5000, 6002, 6004 and 6005
respectively 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 and Class E airspace
designations listed in this document
will be published subsequently in the
Order.
The Rule
This amendment to part 71 of the
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR
part 71) removes Class D, E2, E4, and E5
airspace at Utica, NY, amends Class D,
and E2 airspace at Rome, NY, and
establishes Class E5 airspace at Rome,
NY.
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 is 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Direct Final Rule Procedure
The FAA anticipates that this
regulation will 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, and 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 direct final rule.
Comments are specifically invited on
the overall regulatory, aeronautical,
economic, environmental, and energyrelated aspects of the direct final rule.
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-addressed, stamped
postcard on which the following
statement is made: ‘‘Comments to
Docket No. FAA–2007–28776/Airspace
Docket No. 07–ACE–10.’’ The postcard
will be date/time stamped and returned
to the commenter.
