SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: History On May 24, 2010, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice of proposed rulemaking to amend Class E airspace at Pine Mountain, GA (75 FR 28765) Docket No. FAA–2010–0498. Interested persons were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received. Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9T signed August 27, 2009, and effective September 15, 2009, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR Part 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order. srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with RULES The Rule This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 amends the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Pine Mountain, GA to provide controlled airspace required to support the SIAPs for Harris County Airport. This action is necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations at the airport. 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, is non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative comments. 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, 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 FAA’s authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is found in VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:53 Aug 10, 2010 Jkt 220001 Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, Section 106 describes the authority of 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 airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use of airspace.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 28, 2010, the final rule, ‘‘Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast (ADS–B) Out Performance Requirements To Support Air Traffic Control (ATC) Service,’’ was published in the Federal Register (75 FR 30160). In that rule, the FAA amended its regulations by adding equipage requirements and performance standards for Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast (ADS–B) Out avionics on aircraft operating in Classes A, B, and C airspace, as well as certain other specified classes of airspace within the U.S. National Airspace System (NAS). In the DATES section of the final rule, the FAA noted that affected parties were not required to comply with the new information collection requirements in § 91.225 until OMB approved the FAA’s request to collect the information. The regulation requires persons operating in the specified airspace to equip with Automatic Dependent Surveillance– Broadcast (ADS–B) Out avionics that continuously transmits aircraft information via automation for use in providing air traffic surveillance services.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History

    On May 11, 2010, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice 
of proposed rulemaking to establish Class E airspace at Williamson, WV 
(75 FR 26150) Docket No. FAA-2010-0416. Subsequent to publication, the 
FAA found that the geographic coordinates needed to be adjusted. This 
action makes that adjustment by incorporating the revised geographic 
coordinates into the final rule. Interested parties were invited to 
participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on 
the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received. Class E airspace 
designations are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9T 
signed August 27, 2009, and effective

[[Page 48552]]

September 15, 2009, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. 
The Class E airspace designations listed in this document will be 
published subsequently in the Order. With the exception of editorial 
changes, and the changes described above, this rule is the same as that 
proposed in the NPRM.

The Rule

    This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71 establishes the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet 
above the surface at Williamson, WV, to provide controlled airspace 
required to support the SIAPs developed for Mingo County Regional. The 
geographic coordinates for the airport will be adjusted to coincide 
with the FAAs National Aeronautical Navigation Services. This action is 
necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations at the 
airports.
    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, is 
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative 
comments. 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, 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 FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is 
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, section 106 
describes the authority of 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 
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 Class E airspace at Williamson, WV.
