The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment
to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations
(14 CFR) part 71 by establishing Class E
airspace extending upward 700 feet or
more above the surface at Little River
Airport, Little River, CA. Controlled
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:58 Jul 29, 2009
Jkt 217001
airspace is necessary to accommodate
aircraft using the new RNAV (GPS)
SIAP at Little River Airport, Little River,
CA. This action would enhance the
safety and management of aircraft
operations at Little River Airport, Little
River, CA.
Class E airspace designations are
published in paragraph 6005 of FAA
Order 7400.9S, signed October 3, 2008,
and effective October 31, 2008, 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
additional controlled airspace at Little
River Airport, Little River, CA.

SUMMARY: This action extends the

proposed rule would require all
certificate holders conducting

which will reduce the frequency of

scope of part 135 operations. The FAA
is seeking further comment on this
proposed rule because all of the

possible to do so without incurring
expense or delay. We may change this

Background
On May 1, 2009 (74 FR 20263) the
FAA published a proposed rule that
would require all certificate holders
conducting operations under part 135 to
include in their training programs crew
resource management for crewmembers,
including pilots and flight attendants.
The comment period for the proposed
rule closes on July 30, 2009. Because the
regulatory evaluation for the proposed
rule was not available for review in the
docket until July 24, 2009, the FAA is
extending the comment period from July
30, 2009 to September 28, 2009.
Extension of Comment Period
The FAA wants to ensure that the
proposed rulemaking and all its
associated documents have been
E:\FR\FM\30JYP1.SGM
30JYP1
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 145 / Thursday, July 30, 2009 / Proposed Rules
adequately available for public viewing
and comment. Because the regulatory
evaluation contains information
regarding the expected benefits and
costs of this rulemaking, the FAA has
determined that a 60-day extension of
the comment period is necessary to give
the public adequate time to review this
document. Such action is, in the public
interest, and good cause exists for taking
this action. Accordingly, the comment
period for Notice No. 09–02 is extended
until September 28, 2009.
Issued in Washington, DC, on July 27,
2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Vocational School Guides are
intended to advise proprietary
businesses offering vocational training
courses, either on the school’s premises
or through distance education, how to
avoid unfair or deceptive practices in
connection with the advertising,
promotion, marketing, or sale of their
courses or programs. The Commission
promulgated the Guides (then titled the
‘‘Guides for Private Vocational and
Home Study Schools’’) in May 1972.
The guides became effective on August
14, 1972. (37 FR 9665 (May 16, 1972)).
The Commission amended the Guides
effective October 9, 1998. These
amendments added a provision
addressing misrepresentations related to
post-graduation employment. In order to
streamline the Guides, certain
provisions not specific to vocational
schools and a section suggesting
affirmative disclosures were deleted.2
(62 FR 19703 (Aug. 10, 1998) as
amended at 63 FR 72350 (Dec. 31,
1998)).
The Vocational School Guides
address misrepresentations in the
description of a school including
misrepresentations that the school is
affiliated with the government or is an
employment agency. The Guides also
address misleading representations
related to the accreditation and approval
2The deleted affirmative disclosures included the
school’s make-up work policy, costs of purchasing
the textbooks and equipment needed for the
courses, a description of the school’s physical
facilities and a description of the school’s
placement service.

Background
On May 1, 2009 (74 FR 20263) the FAA published a proposed rule that
would require all certificate holders conducting operations under part
135 to include in their training programs crew resource management for
crewmembers, including pilots and flight attendants. The comment period
for the proposed rule closes on July 30, 2009. Because the regulatory
evaluation for the proposed rule was not available for review in the
docket until July 24, 2009, the FAA is extending the comment period
from July 30, 2009 to September 28, 2009.
Extension of Comment Period
The FAA wants to ensure that the proposed rulemaking and all its
associated documents have been
[[Page 37973]]
adequately available for public viewing and comment. Because the
regulatory evaluation contains information regarding the expected
benefits and costs of this rulemaking, the FAA has determined that a
60-day extension of the comment period is necessary to give the public
adequate time to review this document. Such action is, in the public
interest, and good cause exists for taking this action. Accordingly,
the comment period for Notice No. 09-02 is extended until September 28,
2009.
Issued in Washington, DC, on July 27, 2009.
Julie A. Lynch,
Acting Director, Office of Rulemaking.
