Persons interested in being placed on
a mailing list for future NPRMs should
contact the FAA’s Office of Rulemaking,
(202) 267–9677, for a copy of Advisory
Circular No. 11–2A, Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking Distribution System, which
describes the application procedure.
The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment
to Title 14 Code of the Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by
modifying Class D airspace, and Class E
airspace designated as surface area in
the Yuma, AZ, area. The Yuma MCAS–
Yuma International Airport airspace
area would be modified to ensure the
containment of aircraft arriving and
departing Somerton Airport, Somerton,
AZ. This action would enhance the
safety and management of aircraft
operations in the Yuma, AZ, area.
Class D and E airspace designations
are published in paragraph 5000 and
6002, respectively, of FAA Order
7400.9T, signed August 27, 2009, and
effective September 15, 2009, 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 this
Order.
The FAA has determined this
proposed regulation only involves an
established body of technical
regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to
VerDate Nov<24>2008
16:39 Mar 24, 2010
Jkt 220001
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 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 modifies
controlled airspace in the Yuma, AZ,
area.

The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment

Class E airspace designations are
published in paragraph 6006 of FAA

The Proposal
The FAA is considering an
amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to remove
Class D and E airspace at Panama CityBay County Airport, Panama City, FL.
Panama City-Bay County Airport is
closing to allow establishment of
controlled airspace at the new airport,
which is being proposed under separate
rulemaking. Also, Class E airspace for
Tyndall AFB would be re-established
under separate rulemaking.
Class D airspace designations, Class E
airspace designations as extensions to a
Class D surface area (E4), and Class E5
designations are published in
Paragraphs 5000, 6004 and 6005,
respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9T,
signed August 27, 2009, and effective
September 15, 2009, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class D and E airspace
designations listed in this document
would be published subsequently in the
Order.
The FAA has determined that this
proposed regulation only involves an

therefore, (1) is not a ‘‘significant

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 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 for the Lucin VORTAC, Lucin, UT.
