Additionally, a typographical error (boundary coordinate) was noted in the NPRM airspace description and has been corrected in the final rule. With the exception of editorial changes, and the changes described above, this rule is the same as that proposed in the NPRM. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received. The Class E airspace areas designated as En Route Domestic Airspace Areas are published in paragraph 6006 of FAA Order 7400.9U, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 18, 2010, and effective September 15, 2010, 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. The Rule This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by revising Class E airspace in Northeast Alaska and establishing Class E airspace to accommodate enroute traffic to a new Special RNAV SIAP, and a new obstacle departure procedure (ODP) at the Eagle Airport, Eagle, AK. This Class E6 airspace will provide adequate controlled airspace upward from 1,200 feet above the surface for safety and management of commercial IFR operations in Northeast Alaska. Air carriers providing service to Eagle, AK, must currently operate under Visual Flight Rules (VFR). With the establishment of an instrument approach at Eagle Airport, the uncontrolled airspace must be converted into controlled airspace. The airspace required to provide for the safety and management of IFR operations at Eagle Airport is designated as E6 Enroute Domestic Airspace and is established by this rule. 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. Because this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:49 Oct 08, 2010 Jkt 223001 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. The FAA’s authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle 1, 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 1, Section 40103, Sovereignty and use of airspace. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to ensure the safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because it revokes Class E airspace in Northeast Alaska, establishes Class E airspace to allow IFR access at Eagle Airport, Eagle, AK, and represents the FAA’s continuing effort to safely and efficiently use the navigable airspace.

SUMMARY: This action will remove Class E airspace at St. George, UT, as 
the airport will be closing, eliminating the need for controlled 
airspace. This action will establish Class E airspace for the new St.

Controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate aircraft using a new 
Area Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning System (GPS), VHF Omni-
Directional Radio Range/Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME), 
Localizer Type Directional Aid/Distance Measuring Equipment (LDA/DME)

This will improve the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules 
(IFR) operations at the airport.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

[[Page 62462]]

History

    On July 29, 2010, the FAA published in the Federal Register a 
notice of proposed rulemaking to remove and establish controlled 
airspace at St. George Municipal Airport, St. George, UT (75 FR 44727). 
Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking 
effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No 
comments were received.
    Subsequent to publication, the FAA found the controlled airspace 
area extending upward from 700 feet AGL was more than was needed for 
the SIAP, and modified portions for the VOR/DME SIAP by reducing the 
amount of airspace originally stated, thus better serving the aviation 
needs at the new airport. This action will make the changes. With the 
exception of editorial changes, and the changes described above, this 
rule is the same as that proposed in the NPRM.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6002 and 
6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9U dated August 18, 2010, and 
effective September 15, 2010, which is incorporated by reference in 14 
CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in this document 
will be published subsequently in that Order.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71 by removing Class E surface airspace, and Class E airspace 
extending upward from 700 feet above the surface, at St. George 
Municipal Airport, St. George, UT, as the airport is closing and 
relocating south of the existing airport. This action will establish 
Class E surface airspace and Class E airspace extending upward from 700 
feet above the surface at the new St. George Municipal Airport location 
to accommodate IFR aircraft executing new RNAV (GPS), VOR/DME and LDA/
DME SIAPs at the airport. The description for the airport's Class E 
airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface will 
correctly show the airspace needed for the VOR/DME SIAP. This action is 
necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations.
    The FAA has determined this regulation only involves an established 
body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments 
are necessary to keep them operationally current. Therefore, this 
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 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 U.S. 
Code. Subtitle 1, section 106 discusses 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 amends 
controlled airspace at St. George Municipal Airport, St. George, UT.
