that the Dairy Board shall review the
geographic distribution of milk
production throughout the United States
SUMMARY:
(U.S.) and, if warranted, shall
recommend to the Secretary a
reapportionment of the regions and/or
modification of the number of domestic
members from the regions in order to
better reflect the geographic distribution
of milk production volumes in the U.S.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Dairy
Production Stabilization Act of 1983
authorizes a national program for dairy
product promotion, research and
nutrition education. Congress found that
it is in the public interest to authorize
the establishment of an orderly
procedure for financing (through
assessments on all milk produced in the
U.S. for commercial use and on
imported dairy products) and carrying
out a coordinated program of promotion
designed to strengthen the dairy
industry’s position in the marketplace
and to maintain and expand domestic
and foreign markets and uses for fluid
milk and dairy products.
Section 1150.131 of the Dairy Order
(7 CFR 1150.131) provides that the
Dairy Board shall review the geographic
distribution of milk production
throughout the U.S. and, if warranted,
shall recommend to the Secretary a
reapportionment of the regions and/or
modification of the number of members
from the regions in order to better reflect
the geographic distribution of milk
production volume in the U.S. The
Dairy Order is administered by a 37member Dairy Board, 36 members
representing 12 geographic regions
within the U.S. and 1 representing
importers. The number of domestic
Dairy Board members was last modified
in 2011 based on 2010 U.S. milk
production.
Based on a review of the 2014
geographic distribution of milk
production, the Dairy Board has
concluded that the number of Dairy
Board members and regions represented
should be maintained. This finding was
submitted by the Dairy Board, which
administers the Dairy Order.
In 2014, total milk production was
206,586 million pounds and each of the
Dairy Board members would represent
5,738.5 million pounds of milk. Table 1
summarizes by region, the volume of
milk production distribution for 2014,
the percentage of total milk production,
and the regions and number of Dairy
Board seats for each region.

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 modifies
Class D airspace at Grissom ARB, Peru,
IN.
History
On June 6, 2016, the FAA published
in the Federal Register a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to modify
Class D Airspace to allow for a lower
Circling Minimum Descent Altitude at
Grissom Air Reserve Base (ARB), IN (81
FR 36214) FAA–2016–6006. 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 D airspace areas are published
in paragraph 5000 of FAA Order
7400.9Z, dated August 6, 2016, and
effective September 15, 2015, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
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 modifies FAA Order
7400.9Z, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2016,
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

The Rule
This action modifies Title 14, Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR), Part 71 by
modifying Class D airspace at Grissom
ARB, IN, to within a 5.8-mile radius of
the airport. This increase will allow for
a lower Circling Minimum Descent
Altitude, where Instrument Flight Rules
Category E circling procedures are being
used. Also, this action adds Peru,
Grissom Air Reserve Base, IN, to the
subtitle of the airspace designation.
Controlled airspace is needed for the
safety and management of IFR
operations at the airport.
Class D airspace areas are published
in paragraph 5000 of FAA Order
7400.9Z, dated August 6, 2016, and
effective September 15, 2015, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class E airspace designation
listed in this document will be
published subsequently in the Order.
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 will only affect air
traffic procedures and air navigation, it
is certified that this 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.
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 exists
that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.

Section 1150.131 of the Dairy Order (7 CFR 1150.131) provides that
the Dairy Board shall review the geographic distribution of milk
production throughout the U.S. and, if warranted, shall recommend to
the Secretary a reapportionment of the regions and/or modification of
the number of members from the regions in order to better reflect the
geographic distribution of milk production volume in the U.S. The Dairy
Order is administered by a 37-member Dairy Board, 36 members
representing 12 geographic regions within the U.S. and 1 representing
importers. The number of domestic Dairy Board members was last modified

Based on a review of the 2014 geographic distribution of milk
production, the Dairy Board has concluded that the number of Dairy
Board members and regions represented should be maintained. This
finding was submitted by the Dairy Board, which administers the Dairy
Order.
In 2014, total milk production was 206,586 million pounds and each
of the Dairy Board members would represent 5,738.5 million pounds of
milk. Table 1 summarizes by region, the volume of milk production
distribution for 2014, the percentage of total milk production, and the
