The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by establishing Class E airspace designated as an extension and PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 modifying Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Charles M. Schultz-Sonoma County Airport, Santa Rosa, CA. After a biennial review of the airspace, the FAA found modification of the airspace necessary for the safety and management of aircraft departing and arriving under IFR operations at the airport. Class E airspace designated as an extension to the Class D and Class E surface area would be established from the 4.3-mile radius of the airport to 14 miles northwest of the airport. Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface would be modified with segments extending 23 miles northwest, 28 miles southeast, and 13 miles southwest of the airport. The description for the Class D airspace would reflect the airport name change from Santa Rosa/Sonoma County Airport to Charles M. Schultz-Sonoma County Airport. Class D and E airspace designations are published in paragraph 5000, 6004, and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9X, dated August 7, 2013, and effective September 15, 2013, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and E airspace designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in this Order. The FAA has determined this proposed regulation only involves an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. Therefore, this proposed 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 proposed rule, when promulgated, would 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 for 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 E:\FR\FM\15JYP1.SGM 15JYP1 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 135 / Tuesday, July 15, 2014 / Proposed Rules prescribing regulations to assign the use of the airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use of airspace.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background ACTION: A. The Requirement for Postmarketing Studies To Assess the Risk of a New Drug The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing a public hearing that will provide a forum to discuss confidentiality of interim results for certain cardiovascular outcomes trials (CVOTs) submitted to the Agency while the trials are still ongoing. The purpose of the public hearing is to initiate constructive discussion among regulators, In some cases, studies submitted to FDA as part of a new drug application or biologics license application will demonstrate that a drug is safe and effective for its intended use (i.e., that its benefits outweigh its identified risks), but the Agency will nevertheless require a sponsor to conduct additional postmarketing studies or trials under section 505(o)(3) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) HHS.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal 
Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by establishing Class E airspace 
designated as an extension and modifying Class E airspace extending 
upward from 700 feet above the surface at Charles M. Schultz-Sonoma 
County Airport, Santa Rosa, CA. After a biennial review of the 
airspace, the FAA found modification of the airspace necessary for the 
safety and management of aircraft departing and arriving under IFR 
operations at the airport. Class E airspace designated as an extension 
to the Class D and Class E surface area would be established from the 
4.3-mile radius of the airport to 14 miles northwest of the airport. 
Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface would 
be modified with segments extending 23 miles northwest, 28 miles 
southeast, and 13 miles southwest of the airport. The description for 
the Class D airspace would reflect the airport name change from Santa 
Rosa/Sonoma County Airport to Charles M. Schultz-Sonoma County Airport.
    Class D and E airspace designations are published in paragraph 
5000, 6004, and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9X, dated August 
7, 2013, and effective September 15, 2013, which is incorporated by 
reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and E airspace designations 
listed in this document will be published subsequently in this Order.
    The FAA has determined this proposed regulation only involves an 
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and 
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. 
Therefore, this proposed 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 proposed rule, when 
promulgated, would 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 for 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

[[Page 41149]]

prescribing regulations to assign the use of the 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 amend 
controlled airspace at Charles M. Schultz-Sonoma County Airport, Santa 
Rosa, CA.
    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in 
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies 
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
