History On May 3, 2016, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) (81 FR 26499) Docket No. FAA–2016–4291, to modify Class E airspace at Virgil I. Grissom Municipal Airport, Bedford, IN; Goshen Municipal Airport, Goshen, IN; Putnam County Airport, Greencastle, IN; Huntingburg Airport, Huntingburg, IN; North Vernon Airport, North Vernon, IN; Jasper County Airport, Rensselaer, IN; Perry County Municipal Airport, Tell City, IN; Daviess County Airport, Washington, IN; and remove controlled airspace at O’Neal Airport, Vincennes, IN. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received. Subsequent to publication, the FAA found that Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at O’Neal Airport, Vincennes, IN, was previously removed in a rule published in the Federal Register of October 23, 2015 (80 FR 64316) Docket No. FAA–2015–2049. 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. Lhorne on DSK30JT082PROD with RULES The Rule This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 modifies Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at the following airports: Within a 6.5-mile radius of Virgil I. Grissom Municipal Airport, Bedford, IN; Within a 6.8-mile radius of Goshen Municipal Airport, Goshen, IN, and updates the geographic coordinates of this airport; VerDate Sep<11>2014 13:32 Aug 01, 2016 Jkt 238001 Within a 6.5-mile radius of Putnam County Airport, Greencastle, IN, and updates the geographic coordinates of this airport; Within a 6.5-mile radius of Huntingburg Airport, Huntingburg, IN, with a segment extending from the 6.5-mile radius to 11.2 miles east of the airport; Within a 6.5-mile radius of North Vernon Airport, North Vernon, IN, and updates the geographic coordinates of this airport; Within a 6.4-mile radius of Jasper County Airport, Rensselaer, IN, and updates the geographic coordinates of this airport; Within a 6.4-mile radius of Perry County Municipal Airport, Tell City, IN, and updates the geographic coordinates of this airport; and Within a 6.4-mile radius of Daviess County Airport, Washington, IN. Airspace reconfiguration is necessary due to the decommissioning of NDBs, cancellation of NDB approaches, or implementation of RNAV procedures at the above airports. Controlled airspace is necessary for the safety and management of the standard instrument approach procedures for IFR operations at the airports. O’Neal Airport, Vincennes, IN, is removed from this rulemaking as the airspace was removed in a previously published rulemaking (80 FR 64316, October 23, 2015), Docket No. FAA– 2015–2049. 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 PO 00000 Frm 00010 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ paragraph 5–6.5.a. 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.

Additionally, this action updates the name of thirteen (13) airports listed in Appendix D, section 3, and the name of four (4) airports listed in Appendix D, section 4. The FAA is taking this action to correctly identify the airports listed in the appropriate special operating restrictions sections of the Appendix consistent with FAA aeronautical database information.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR), part 91, appendix D, sections 1, 3, and 4, list the airports where special operating restrictions apply. Specifically, section 1 lists the locations at which aircraft operating within 30 nautical miles (NM) of the listed airports, from the surface upward to 10,000 feet mean sea level (MSL), must be equipped with an altitude encoding transponder. The locations listed in this section are intended to be the Class B airspace area primary airports. Further, section 3 lists the locations at which aircraft fixed-wing Special VFR operations are prohibited and section 4 lists the locations at which solo student, sport, and recreational pilot activity is not permitted. On April 28, 1975, the FAA issued a final rule (40 FR 18414) Docket No. 73– WA–11, FR. Doc. 75–10970, which established the Kansas City, Missouri (MO), Terminal Control Area (TCA), listing the Kansas City International Airport as the primary airport. In 1993, as a result of the Airspace Reclassification rule (56 FR 65638) Docket No. 24456, FR Doc. 91–29869, TCAs were changed to Class B airspace areas and the Kansas City, MO, TCA became the Kansas City, MO, Class B airspace area with the Kansas City International Airport listed as the primary airport. However, when the Airspace Reclassification final rule amended the regulatory text in 14 CFR 91.215(b)(2) to read ‘‘All aircraft. In all airspace within 30 nautical miles of an PO 00000 Frm 00011 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 50615 airport listed in appendix D, section 1 of this part . . .’’, the airports listed in Appendix D, section 1, inadvertently included Kansas City, KS (MidContinent International Airport) in error instead of Kansas City, MO (Kansas City International Airport). This action corrects that inadvertent error in Appendix D, section 1. Further review of the airports listed in Appendix D, section 1, highlighted that the airport name for twelve other airports listed in the section were incorrect and had changed since originally having been included as a result of the Airspace Reclassification rule. The twelve airports include: Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport, Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport, Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, George Bush Intercontinental/Houston Airport, Minneapolis-St. Paul International/Wold-Chamberlain Airport, Newark Liberty International Airport, Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, Pittsburgh International Airport, Miramar Marine Corps Air Station, and Joint Base Andrews. Similarly, review of the airports listed in appendix D, section 3, identified that the airport name for thirteen airports listed in the section were incorrect and had changed since originally having been included as a result of the Airspace Reclassification rule. The thirteen airports include: Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport, Cincinnati/ Northern Kentucky International Airport, Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, Dallas Love Field Airport, Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, George Bush Intercontinental/ Houston Airport, Louisville International Airport-Standiford Field, Minneapolis-St. Paul International/ Wold-Chamberlain Airport, Newark Liberty International Airport, Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, Pittsburgh International Airport, and Joint Base Andrews. Lastly, review of the airports listed in appendix D, section 4, identified that the airport name for four airports listed in the section were incorrect and had changed since originally having been included as a result of the Airspace Reclassification rule. The four airports include: Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, Newark Liberty International Airport, and Joint Base Andrews.

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 amends Class E airspace at Virgil I. Grissom Municipal Airport, 
Bedford, IN; Goshen Municipal Airport, Goshen, IN; Putnam County 
Airport, Greencastle, IN; Huntingburg Airport, Huntingburg, IN; North 
Vernon Airport, North Vernon, IN; Jasper County Airport, Rensselaer,

[[Page 50614]]

IN; Perry County Municipal Airport, Tell City, IN; and Daviess County 
Airport, Washington, IN.

History

    On May 3, 2016, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice 
of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) (81 FR 26499) Docket No. FAA-2016-4291, 
to modify Class E airspace at Virgil I. Grissom Municipal Airport, 
Bedford, IN; Goshen Municipal Airport, Goshen, IN; Putnam County 
Airport, Greencastle, IN; Huntingburg Airport, Huntingburg, IN; North 
Vernon Airport, North Vernon, IN; Jasper County Airport, Rensselaer, 
IN; Perry County Municipal Airport, Tell City, IN; Daviess County 
Airport, Washington, IN; and remove controlled airspace at O'Neal 
Airport, Vincennes, IN. Interested parties were invited to participate 
in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the 
proposal to the FAA. No comments were received. Subsequent to 
publication, the FAA found that Class E airspace extending upward from 
700 feet above the surface at O'Neal Airport, Vincennes, IN, was 
previously removed in a rule published in the Federal Register of 
October 23, 2015 (80 FR 64316) Docket No. FAA-2015-2049.
    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 modifies Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above 
the surface at the following airports:

Within a 6.5-mile radius of Virgil I. Grissom Municipal Airport, 
Bedford, IN;
Within a 6.8-mile radius of Goshen Municipal Airport, Goshen, IN, and 
updates the geographic coordinates of this airport;
Within a 6.5-mile radius of Putnam County Airport, Greencastle, IN, and 
updates the geographic coordinates of this airport;
Within a 6.5-mile radius of Huntingburg Airport, Huntingburg, IN, with 
a segment extending from the 6.5-mile radius to 11.2 miles east of the 
airport;
Within a 6.5-mile radius of North Vernon Airport, North Vernon, IN, and 
updates the geographic coordinates of this airport;
Within a 6.4-mile radius of Jasper County Airport, Rensselaer, IN, and 
updates the geographic coordinates of this airport;
Within a 6.4-mile radius of Perry County Municipal Airport, Tell City, 
IN, and updates the geographic coordinates of this airport; and
Within a 6.4-mile radius of Daviess County Airport, Washington, IN.

    Airspace reconfiguration is necessary due to the decommissioning of 
NDBs, cancellation of NDB approaches, or implementation of RNAV 
procedures at the above airports. Controlled airspace is necessary for 
the safety and management of the standard instrument approach 
procedures for IFR operations at the airports.
    O'Neal Airport, Vincennes, IN, is removed from this rulemaking as 
the airspace was removed in a previously published rulemaking (80 FR 
64316, October 23, 2015), Docket No. FAA-2015-2049.

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 5-6.5.a. 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.
