Revocation and Establishment of Class E Airspace; Bowman, ND, 2986-2987 [2016-00627]

Download as PDF 2986 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 12 / Wednesday, January 20, 2016 / Rules and Regulations stating that the aircraft has been properly cleaned and disinfected, and stating further the date, the carrier, the flight number, and the name of the airport and the city and state in which it is located. If an aircraft is cleaned and disinfected at one airport, then flies to a subsequent airport, with or without stops en route, to load animals for export, an APHIS representative at the subsequent airport will determine, based on examination of the cleaning and disinfection documents, whether the previous cleaning and disinfection is adequate or whether to order a new cleaning and disinfection. If the aircraft has loaded any cargo in addition to animals, the APHIS representative at the subsequent airport will determine whether to order a new cleaning and disinfection, based on both examination of the cleaning and disinfection documents and on the inspection of the stowage area for materials, such as garbage, soil, manure, plant materials, insects, waste paper, or debris, that may harbor animal disease pathogens. (e) Cargo containers used to ship livestock must be designed and constructed of a material of sufficient strength to securely contain the animals and must provide sufficient space for the species being transported given the duration of the trip, as determined by APHIS. § 91.14 Other movements and conditions. The Administrator may, upon request in specific cases, permit the exportation of livestock not otherwise provided for in this part under such conditions as he or she may prescribe in each specific case to prevent the spread of livestock diseases and to ensure the humane treatment of the animals during transport to the importing country. Done in Washington, DC, this 13th day of January 2016. Kevin Shea, Administrator, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.

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 Bowman Regional Airport, Bowman, ND and removes Class E airspace at Bowman Municipal Airport, Bowman, ND. History On September 15, 2015, The FAA published in the Federal Register a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to establish Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Bowman Regional Airport, Bowman, ND (80 FR 55275) and remove Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Bowman Municipal Airport, Bowman, ND (80 FR 55275, September 15, 2015). 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 7400.9Z, dated August 6, 2015, and effective September 15, 2015, 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 amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 establishes Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface within a 6-mile radius, at Bowman Regional Airport, Bowman, ND. New standard instrument approach procedures were developed for the safety of IFR operations at the airport.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 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, is non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative comments. 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 only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated, does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is 
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, 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 Bowman Regional Airport, 
Bowman, ND and removes Class E airspace at Bowman Municipal Airport, 
Bowman, ND.

History

    On September 15, 2015, The FAA published in the Federal Register a 
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to establish Class E airspace 
extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Bowman Regional 
Airport, Bowman, ND (80 FR 55275) and remove Class E airspace extending 
upward from 700 feet above the surface at Bowman Municipal Airport, 
Bowman, ND (80 FR 55275, September 15, 2015). 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 7400.9Z, dated August 6, 2015, and effective September 15, 
2015, 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.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.9Z, airspace Designations and 
Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2015, and effective September 15, 
2015. FAA Order 7400.9Z is publicly available as listed in the 
ADDRESSES section of this final document. FAA Order 7400.9Z lists Class 
A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and 
reporting points.

The Rule

    This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
Part 71 establishes Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet 
above the surface within a 6-mile radius, at Bowman Regional Airport, 
Bowman, ND. New standard instrument approach procedures were developed 
for the safety of IFR operations at the airport. Additionally, this 
action removes Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above 
the surface at Bowman

[[Page 2987]]

Municipal Airport, Bowman, ND, due to closure of the airport. This 
action accommodates new standard instrument approach procedures at 
Bowman Regional Airport and enhances the safety and management of IFR 
operations at the airport.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    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, is 
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative 
comments. 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 only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is 
certified that this rule, when promulgated, does not have a significant 
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the 
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    The FAA issued a Federal Finding of No Significant Impact/Record of 
Decision (FONSI/ROD) for the proposed relocation of the Bowman County 
Airport and associated actions at Bowman County, North Dakota on August 
2, 2010. This action to establish Class E airspace extending upward 
from 700 feet above the surface at Bowman Regional Airport, Bowman, ND, 
and to remove Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the 
surface at Bowman Municipal Airport, Bowman, ND, due to closure of the 
airport is a part of the associated actions covered in the FONSI/ROD 
and evaluated in the Environmental Assessment dated June 2010.
