Christine Mellon, Acting Manager, Operations Support Group, Western Service Center § 71.1 [FR Doc. 2011–7600 Filed 3–31–11; 8:45 am] This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by establishing Class E surface airspace, at Kahului Airport, to accommodate IFR aircraft executing the RNAV standard instrument approach procedures at the airport. 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 establishes additional controlled airspace at Kahului Airport, Kahului, HI.

Since the adoption of the Uniform Criteria in 1998, NHTSA and the States have accumulated substantial experience in the design and implementation of seat belt use surveys. This experience has provided insight into factors that could affect survey accuracy and reliability. In addition, technological improvements in road inventories have made it possible to select observation sites that are more representative of the road segments in the State in a more cost effective manner. For these reasons, NHTSA is revising the Uniform Criteria so that future surveys will give States more accurate data to guide their occupant protection programs.

Background Section 1403 of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA– 21) (Pub. L. 105–178) authorized a seat belt incentive grant program that awarded grant funds to States based on a State’s seat belt use rate. On September 1, 1998, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) published as an interim final rule the criteria to ensure accurate and representative measurements of a State’s seat belt use rate, known as the Uniform Criteria for State Observational Surveys of Seat Belt Use (the Uniform Criteria). See 63 FR 46389. On March 14, 2000, NHTSA published a Final Rule, adopting the Uniform Criteria with one clarifying change.1 See 65 FR 13679. The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA–LU) (Pub. L. 109–59), enacted on August 10, 2005, did not reauthorize the seat belt incentive grant program. However, SAFETEA–LU established new administrative requirements relating to a State’s qualification for a highway safety grant under 23 U.S.C. 402. One such requirement is that the State must provide satisfactory assurances that it will conduct an annual Statewide seat belt use survey in accordance with the criteria for State seat belt use rate measurement established by the Secretary of Transportation.2 In August 2005, NHTSA notified the States and Territories that the Statewide surveys conducted in accordance with the Uniform Criteria for State Observational Surveys of Seat Belt Use, as published at 23 CFR part 1340, would satisfy the administrative requirements of Section 402. In addition, the implementing guidelines for the safety belt performance grant program under 23 U.S.C. 406 provide that seat belt use surveys conducted in accordance with the Uniform Criteria serve as the basis for an award under the seat belt 1 In 2000, NHTSA clarified that States are permitted to ‘‘cluster sample,’’ i.e., group observation sites according to geographic areas to minimize travel time and distance required to conduct the observations. 2 49 CFR 1.50 (delegation of authority to Administrator of National Highway Traffic Safety Administration).

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This action will establish Class E airspace at Kahului 
Airport, Kahului, HI, to accommodate aircraft using Area Navigation 
(RNAV) standard instrument approach procedures at Kahului Airport. This 
will improve the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) 
operations at the airport.

DATES: Effective date, 0901 UTC, June 30, 2011. The Director of the 
Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under 
1 CFR Part 51, subject to the annual revision of FAA Order 7400.9 and 
publication of conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History

    On January 20, 2011, the FAA published in the Federal Register a 
notice of proposed rulemaking to establish controlled airspace at 
Kahului, HI (76 FR 3571). 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 6002 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 establishing Class E surface airspace, at Kahului Airport, 
to accommodate IFR aircraft executing the RNAV standard instrument 
approach procedures at the airport. 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 establishes 
additional controlled airspace at Kahului Airport, Kahului, HI.
