The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by establishing Class E airspace at Salida, CO. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface is necessary to accommodate aircraft using the new RNAV (GPS) SIAP at Harriet Alexander Field. This action would enhance the safety and management of IFR operations at Harriet Alexander Field, Salida, CO. Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9R, signed August 15, 2007, and effective September 15, 2007, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designation listed in this document will be published subsequently in this 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. Therefore, this proposed 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 proposed rule, when promulgated, would 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 U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106, describes the authority for 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 E:\ERIC\28MRP1.SGM 28MRP1 16580 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 61 / Friday, March 28, 2008 / Proposed Rules 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 as it establishes controlled airspace at Harriet Alexander Field, Salida, CO. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71 Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air). The Proposed Amendment Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the Federal Aviation Administration proposes to amend 14 CFR part 71 as follows: PART 71—DESIGNATION OF CLASS A, B, C, D, AND E AIRSPACE AREAS; AIR TRAFFIC SERVICE ROUTES; AND REPORTING POINTS 1.

ACTION: Proposed rule. AGENCY: SUMMARY: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) previously published a proposed rule (71 FR 29096, May 19, 2006) to adopt a revised set of regulations for the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary (CINMS or Sanctuary). This currently pending proposed rule includes both new regulations and changes to existing regulations, including the discharge prohibition. After reviewing public comments, considering the California Coastal Commission’s federal consistency review (per the Coastal Zone Management Act, 16 U.S.C. 1451 et seq.), and further analyzing vessel discharge issues, NOAA has decided to revise the Sanctuary’s proposed discharge regulation to: (1) Limit the exception for treated sewage discharges to vessels less than 300 gross registered tons (GRT); (2) limit the exception for graywater discharges to vessels less than 300 GRT, and oceangoing ships without sufficient holding tank capacity to hold graywater while within the Sanctuary; and (3) provide definitions for ‘‘oceangoing ship,’’ ‘‘graywater,’’ and ‘‘cruise ship’’. DATES: Comments will be considered if received by May 30, 2008. ADDRESSES: Copies of the Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement (SDEIS) and this supplemental proposed rule are available at Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary, 113 Harbor Way, Suite 150, Santa Barbara, California and on the web at https:// www.channelislands.noaa.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael Murray, Sanctuary Management Plan Coordinator, at (805) 884–1464 or michael.murray@noaa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Introduction Pursuant to section 304(e) of the National Marine Sanctuaries Act (NMSA, 16 U.S.C. 1434(e)), NOAA conducted a review of the management plan and regulations for CINMS, which is located off the coast of southern California. The review resulted in a proposed new CINMS management plan, some proposed changes to existing CINMS regulations, some proposed new CINMS regulations, and some proposed changes to the CINMS terms of designation. ‘‘Discharge and deposit’’ was one of the existing CINMS regulations subject to proposed changes. The May 2006 proposed rule clarified that: • The discharge regulation’s exception for discharges from marine sanitation devices is only applicable to discharges from Type I and Type II marine sanitation devices; and • The discharge regulation’s exception for water (including cooling water) and other biodegradable effluents incidental to vessel use of the Sanctuary includes graywater as defined by section 312 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (Clean Water Act or CWA). The Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for the currently pending proposed rule included three alternatives consisting of NOAA’s proposed action, alternative ‘‘1,’’ and a no-action alternative. With regard to vessel discharges, NOAA’s proposed action would clarify that a type I or II marine sanitation device (MSD) is required of all vessels for discharge of treated sewage within the Sanctuary, and proposes that graywater discharge from all vessels be excepted from the discharge prohibition. DEIS alternative 1 also proposes a graywater exception from the prohibition for all vessels, but would prohibit discharge into the Sanctuary of treated or untreated sewage from large vessels (300 gross registered tons or more). The DEIS no-action alternative would retain the status quo regulation on discharge, which is E:\ERIC\28MRP1.SGM 28MRP1

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal 
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by establishing Class E airspace at 
Salida, CO. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above 
the surface is necessary to accommodate aircraft using the new RNAV 
(GPS) SIAP at Harriet Alexander Field. This action would enhance the 
safety and management of IFR operations at Harriet Alexander Field, 
Salida, CO.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of 
FAA Order 7400.9R, signed August 15, 2007, and effective September 15, 
2007, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E 
airspace designation listed in this document will be published 
subsequently in this 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. 
Therefore, this proposed 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 proposed rule, when 
promulgated, would 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 U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106, describes 
the authority for 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 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 as it establishes controlled airspace at Harriet Alexander 
Field, Salida, CO.
