Amendment of Class E Airspace; Greensburg, IN, 5469-5470 [2011-2050]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 21 / Tuesday, February 1, 2011 / Rules and Regulations Industries PC–6 airplanes, Fairchild Heli Porter PC–6 airplanes, or Fairchild-Hiller Corporation PC–6 airplanes. Subject (d) Air Transport Association of America (ATA) Code 5: Time Limits. Reason (e) The mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) states: The current Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) of PC–6 B2–H2 and B2–H4 models does not include a Chapter 04 in the Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS). For PC–6 models other than B2–H2 and B2–H4, no ALS at all is included in the AMM. With the latest Revision 12 of the AMM, a new Chapter 04 has been introduced in the AMM for PC–6 B2–H2 and B2–H4 models. For PC–6 models other than B2–H2 and B2–H4, a new ALS document has been implemented as well. These documents include the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information (MCAI) which are maintenance requirements and/or airworthiness limitations developed by Pilatus Aircraft Ltd and approved by EASA. Failure to comply with these MCAI constitutes an unsafe condition. For the reasons described above, this MCAI requires the implementation and the compliance with these new maintenance requirements and/or airworthiness limitations documents. Actions and Compliance (f) Unless already done, do the following actions: (1) For all affected Models PC–6/B2–H2 and PC–6/B2–H4; Before further flight after March 8, 2011 (the effective date of this AD), incorporate the maintenance requirements as specified in Pilatus PC–6 AMM Chapter 04– 00–00, Revision 12, Document Number 01975, dated May 14, 2010, into your FAAaccepted maintenance program. (2) For all affected PC–6 models other than the Models PC–6/B2–H2 and PC–6/B2–H4; Before further flight after March 8, 2011 (the effective date of this AD), incorporate the maintenance requirements as specified in Pilatus PC–6 AMM ALS Document Number 02334, Revision 1, dated May 14, 2010, into your FAA-accepted maintenance program. Note 2: The AMM revisions in this AD action include the repetitive inspections for the wing strut fittings and the spherical bearings currently included in AD 2009–18– 03. AD 2009–18–03 (R1), Amendment 39– 16570 has been revised to remove these repetitive inspections. wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with RULES_PART 1 FAA AD Differences Note 3: This AD differs from the MCAI and/or service information as follows: No differences.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: History On November 8, 2010, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice of proposed rulemaking to amend Class E airspace for Greensburg, IN, creating additional controlled airspace at Decatur County Memorial Hospital Heliport (75 FR 68551) Docket No. E:\FR\FM\01FER1.SGM 01FER1 5470 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 21 / Tuesday, February 1, 2011 / Rules and Regulations List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71 ACTION: Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air). SUMMARY: The Rule wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with RULES_PART 1 FAA–2010–1028. 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 7400.9U 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 the Order. ■ This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by amending Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface to accommodate the new COPTER RNAV (POINT–IN–SPACE) standard instrument approach procedures at Decatur County Memorial Hospital Heliport, Greensburg, IN. This action is necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations at the heliport. 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. 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 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 amends controlled airspace at Decatur County Memorial Hospital Heliport, Greensburg, IN. VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:25 Jan 31, 2011 Jkt 223001 Adoption of the Amendment In consideration of the foregoing, the Federal Aviation Administration amends 14 CFR part 71 as follows: PART 71—DESIGNATION OF CLASS A, B, C, D, AND E AIRSPACE AREAS; AIR TRAFFIC SERVICE ROUTES; AND REPORTING POINTS 1.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On November 8, 2010, the FAA published in the Federal Register a 
notice of proposed rulemaking to amend Class E airspace for Greensburg, 
IN, creating additional controlled airspace at Decatur County Memorial 
Hospital Heliport (75 FR 68551) Docket No.

[[Page 5470]]

FAA-2010-1028. 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 7400.9U 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 the Order.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71 by amending Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet 
above the surface to accommodate the new COPTER RNAV (POINT-IN-SPACE) 
standard instrument approach procedures at Decatur County Memorial 
Hospital Heliport, Greensburg, IN. This action is necessary for the 
safety and management of IFR operations at the heliport.
    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. 
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 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 amends controlled airspace at Decatur County Memorial Hospital 
Heliport, Greensburg, IN.
