The Proposal
This action proposes to amend Title
14, Code of Federal Regulations (14
CFR), Part 71 by adding Class E airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface for a new COPTER RNAV
(POINT–IN–SPACE) SIAP at Union
Hospital Heliport, Terre Haute, IN.
Controlled airspace is needed for the
safety and management of IFR
operations. This action also would
change Hulman Regional Airport to
Terre Haute International AirportHulman Field, Terre Haute, IN, and
adjust the geographic coordinates to
coincide with the FAA’s Aeronautical
Products.
Class E airspace areas are published
in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order
VerDate Mar<15>2010
15:59 Jan 28, 2011
Jkt 223001
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 designation
listed in this document would be
published subsequently in the 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. 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 U.S. 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
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 would add controlled
airspace at Union Hospital Heliport,
Terre Haute, IN.

The Proposal
This action proposes to amend Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations

feet above the surface for standard instrument approach procedures at
Faith Ranch Airport, Carrizo Springs, TX. Controlled airspace is needed

Class E airspace areas are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace
designation listed in this document would be published subsequently in
the 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.
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

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
