Establishment of Class E Airspace; Martinsville, IN, 9220-9221 [2011-3550]

Download as PDF 9220 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 33 / Thursday, February 17, 2011 / Rules and Regulations jlentini on DSKJ8SOYB1PROD with RULES 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 creating 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 Ball Memorial Hospital Heliport, Muncie, IN. This action is necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations at the heliport. This action also corrects the airport name listed in the regulatory text for Muncie, IN, from ‘‘Purdue University Airport’’ to ‘‘Delaware County Regional Airport’’. With the exception of editorial changes and the changes described above, this action is the same as that proposed in the NPRM. 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 creates controlled airspace at Ball Memorial Hospital Heliport, Muncie, IN.

Temporary final rule. AGENCY: ACTION: The Coast Guard is establishing special local regulations for the Patriot Challenge Kayak Race in Charleston, SC. The race will take place on April 10, 2011 on the Ashley River. These special local regulations are necessary to insure the safety of life on navigable waters during the race. These special local regulations will temporarily restrict vessel traffic in a portion of the Ashley River, preventing non-participant vessels from entering the regulated areas.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Regulatory Information The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary final rule without prior notice and opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under section 4(a) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and opportunity to comment when the agency for good cause finds that those procedures are ‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.’’ Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for not publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) with respect to this rule because the Coast Guard did not receive notice of the Patriot Challenge Kayak Race with sufficient time to publish an NPRM in advance of the effective date of this rule. Any delay in the effective date of this rule would be contrary to the public interest because immediate action is needed to minimize potential danger to the race participants as well as the general public. Background and Purpose On April 10, 2011, the Patriot Challenge Kayak Race is scheduled to take place on the Ashley River in Charleston, SC. The race will consist of approximately 100 vessels, including race kayaks. The race will commence at Brittlebank Park, transit the Ashley River, head north between Shutes Folly Island and the Charleston peninsula, and then turn around in Tidewater Reach. The race will then return to Brittlebank Park by the same route. These special local regulations are necessary to protect race participants, spectators, and other persons and vessels from the hazards associated with the race. Discussion of Rule The special local regulations consist of a series of buffer zones around race participant vessels. These buffer zones are as follows: (1) All waters within 75 yards in front of the lead safety vessel; (2) all waters within 75 yards behind the last safety vessel; and (3) all waters within 100 yards on either side of each participating vessel, including race kayaks. Information regarding the identity of the lead safety vessel and the last safety vessel will be provided prior to the race via broadcast notice to mariners and marine safety information bulletins. Persons and vessels are prohibited from entering, transiting E:\FR\FM\17FER1.SGM 17FER1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On November 8, 2010, the FAA published in the Federal Register a 
notice of proposed rulemaking to establish Class E airspace for 
Martinsville, IN, creating additional controlled airspace at Morgan 
Hospital Heliport (75 FR 68557) Docket No. FAA-2010-1031. 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 establishing 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 Morgan Hospital Heliport, 
Martinsville, 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

[[Page 9221]]

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 establishes controlled airspace at Morgan Hospital Heliport, 
Martinsville, IN.
