FAA Order 7400.9, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on
September 15.
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 South Naknek NR
2 Airport, South Naknek, AK.
History
On November 24, 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 South Naknek NR 2 Airport, South
Naknek, AK. (80 FR 73150) FAA–2015–
3108. 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
part 71.1. The Class E airspace
designation 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
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 6.5-mile radius of the South
Naknek NR 2 Airport, South Naknek,
AK. This airspace is established to
accommodate new Area Navigation
(RNAV) Global Positioning System
(GPS) standard instrument approach
procedures developed for 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 has determined that this
action qualifies for categorical exclusion
under the National Environmental
Policy Act in accordance with FAA
Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental
Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’
paragraph 5–6.5a. This airspace action
is not expected to cause any potentially
significant environmental impacts, and
no extraordinary circumstances exist
that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.

The Federal Register published a
final rule amending Class E airspace at
Minot International Airport, Minot, ND
(81 FR 5903, February 4, 2016) Docket

amending the airport reference point for
the airports and VORTAC, additional
existing controlled airspace was
inadvertently omitted from the rule.
This action adds adjustment of the
geographic coordinates in Class D

upward from 700 feet above the surface
for the Minot, ND, area.
