alternative would allow small
businesses to participate in set-aside
timber sales without requiring them to
look for and use small mills. Although
this approach would not increase
hauling costs (and hence not increase
the cost to the Government), since small
businesses would not have to seek out
and use small mills located further
away, it could lead to inconsistent
results. What might not be considered a
‘‘reasonable distance’’ for one sale might
be so considered for another sale.
Moreover, without specific data as to
what hauling distance leads to a sales
price that is not fair and reasonable to
the Government, this approach could be
challenged as being arbitrary.
In addition, with respect to the 30/70
rule, instead of appraising 100% of the
hauling to the nearest small mill, SBA
also considered appraising, when the
nearest mill is a large business, 70% of
the haul costs to small mills and 30%
of the haul costs to large mills. Although
this approach may accurately reflect the
true costs to haul the timber, SBA felt
that it could unnecessarily complicate
the process.
SBA also considered appraising to the
nearest small mill only when that mill
is located no more than 60 miles from
the large mill which would be used as
the appraisal point under the current
rules. The median distance between a
small mill and the large mill FS used to
appraise historical set-aside sales is
about 62 miles (see Table 10). Historical
sales data suggests that appraising to the
nearest small mill only when that mill
is located no more than 60 miles from
the current appraisal point would affect
2.7% of set-aside sales and benefit
approximately 35 small businesses
annually (see Table 10). SBA did not
adopt this approach in the proposed
regulatory text as the required step of
determining whether a small mill is
located within 60 miles of the nearest
large mill could unnecessarily
complicate the process. This approach
would impact fewer set-aside sales, but
it would also benefit fewer small
businesses. Overall, the proposed
change tis consistent with SBA’s
statutory mandate to assist small
businesses.
As an alternative to a potential policy
change, although not included in this
proposed rule, to include the
stewardship sawtimber volume in the
small business market share calculation,
SBA also is also considering to include
the stewardship sawtimber volume in
that calculation only in those market
areas where small business participation
is particularly likely to be
underrepresented if stewardship
sawtimber volume is excluded.

Specifically, SBA is considering
whether to include the stewardship
sawtimber volume only in market areas
where small businesses purchase a large
percentage of stewardship contracting
timber volume or where stewardship
contracting timber volume represents a
high percentage of overall timber
volume. However, the purpose of such
a regulatory amendment is to more
accurately reflect small business
participation rates for purposes of
calculating the set-aside trigger point.

(d) In setting minimum bids for small
business timber sale set-asides, the
appraisal point to calculate the cost of
transportation and hauling shall be the
nearest small business manufacturing
facility where the raw materials may be
legally processed as determined by the
U.S. Forest Service.

Availability and Summary of
Documents Proposed for Incorporation
by Reference
This document proposes to amend
FAA Order 7400.11A, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points,
dated August 3, 2016, and effective
September 15, 2016. FAA Order
7400.11A is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,
air traffic service routes, and reporting
points.
The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment
to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations
(14 CFR) Part 71 by modifying:
Class E airspace designated as a
surface area at Findlay Airport, Findlay,
OH, by removing the segments
extending from the 4.3-mile radius 7.4
miles south and northeast of the airport,
and updating the geographic
coordinates of the airport to coincide
with the FAA’s aeronautical database;
And Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface:
By updating the geographic
coordinates of Ashland County Airport
and noting the name change of
Samaritan Hospital Heliport (formerly
Samaritian Regional Health System),
Ashland, OH, to coincide with the
FAA’s aeronautical database;
Within a 6.4-mile radius (reduced
from a 7-mile radius) of Lakefield
Airport, Celina, OH, and updating the
geographic coordinates of the airport to
coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical
database;
Within a 6.4-mile radius (reduced
from a 10-mile radius) of Pickaway
County Memorial Airport, Circleville,
OH, with an extension from the 6.4-mile
radius to 10.5 miles north of the airport,
and within a 6.5-mile radius (reduced
from a 9.1-mile radius) of Ross County
Airport, Chillicothe, OH, and updating
the geographic coordinates of the Ross
County Airport to coincide with the
FAA’s aeronautical database;
By updating the geographic
coordinates of Port Columbus
International Airport, Columbus, OH,

asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 187 / Tuesday, September 27, 2016 / Proposed Rules
removing the Don Scott NDB from the
boundary description, and within a 7.0mile radius (increased from a 6.4-mile
radius) of Fairfield County Airport,
Lancaster, OH; Within a 6.4-mile radius
(reduced from a 7-mile radius) of
Defiance Memorial Airport, Defiance,
OH, and updating the geographic
coordinates and name of Defiance
Regional Medical Center Heliport
(formerly Defiance Hospital), Defiance,
OH, to coincide with the FAA’s
aeronautical database;
Within a 6.8-mile radius (reduced
from a 7.4-mile radius) of Findlay
Airport, Findlay, OH, and within a 7.2mile radius (increased from a 6.6-mile
radius) of Bluffton Airport, Findlay, OH,
and updating the geographic
coordinates of these airports to coincide
with the FAA’s aeronautical database;
Within a 6.9-mile radius (increased
from a 6.6-mile radius) of Butler County
Regional Airport-Hogan Field,
Hamilton, OH, and updating the name
of the airport (formerly Butler County
Regional Airport) to coincide with the
FAA’s aeronautical database;
By removing the Allen County VOR
from the boundary description of Lima
Allen County Airport, Lima, OH, and
updating the name of St. Rita’s Medical
Center Heliport (formerly Saint Rita’s
Medical Center), Lima, OH, and
updating the geographic and point in
space coordinates of these airports to
coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical
database;
And by removing the segment
extending from the 6.4-mile radius 7.4
miles west of Madison County Airport,
London, OH.
Airspace reconfiguration is necessary
due to the decommissioning of NDBs,
cancellation of NDB approaches, and
implementation of RNAV procedures at
these airports. Controlled airspace is
necessary for the safety and
management of standard instrument
approach procedures for IFR operations
at the airports.
Class E airspace designations are
published in paragraph 6002 and 6005,
respectively, of FAA Order 7400.11A,
dated August 3, 2016, and effective
September 15, 2016, 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.
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
This proposal will be subject to an
environmental analysis in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F,
‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final
regulatory action.

SUMMARY:
Legal Authority
The Drug Enforcement
Administration (DEA) implements and
enforces titles II and III of the
Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention
and Control Act of 1970, as amended. 21
U.S.C. 801–971. Titles II and III are
referred to as the ‘‘Controlled
Substances Act’’ and the ‘‘Controlled
Substances Import and Export Act,’’
respectively, and are collectively
referred to as the ‘‘Controlled
Substances Act’’ or the ‘‘CSA’’ for the
purpose of this action. The DEA
publishes the implementing regulations
for these statutes in title 21 of the Code
of Federal Regulations (CFR), chapter II.
PO 00000
Frm 00026
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
The CSA and its implementing
regulations are designed to prevent,
detect, and eliminate the diversion of
controlled substances and listed
chemicals into the illicit market while
providing for the legitimate medical,
scientific, research, and industrial needs
of the United States. Controlled
substances have the potential for abuse
and dependence and are controlled to
protect the public health and safety.
Under the CSA, each controlled
substance is classified into one of five
schedules based upon its potential for
abuse, its currently accepted medical
use in treatment in the United States,
and the degree of dependence the drug
or other substance may cause. 21 U.S.C.
812. The initial schedules of controlled
substances established by Congress are
found at 21 U.S.C. 812(c), and the
current list of all scheduled substances
is published at 21 CFR part 1308.
Section 201 of the CSA, 21 U.S.C. 811,
provides the Attorney General with the
authority to temporarily place a
substance into schedule I of the CSA for
two years without regard to the
requirements of 21 U.S.C. 811(b) if she
finds that such action is necessary to
avoid imminent hazard to the public
safety. 21 U.S.C. 811(h)(1). In addition,
if proceedings to control a substance are
initiated under 21 U.S.C. 811(a)(1), the
Attorney General may extend the
temporary scheduling for up to one
year. 21 U.S.C. 811(h)(2).
Where the necessary findings are
made, a substance may be temporarily
scheduled if it is not listed in any other
schedule under section 202 of the CSA,
21 U.S.C. 812, or if there is no
exemption or approval in effect for the
substance under section 505 of the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
(FDCA), 21 U.S.C. 355. 21 U.S.C.
811(h)(1). The Attorney General has
delegated scheduling authority under 21
U.S.C. 811 to the Administrator of the
DEA. 28 CFR 0.100.
Background
Section 201(h)(4) of the CSA, 21
U.S.C. 811(h)(4), requires the
Administrator to notify the Secretary of
the Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) of his intention to
temporarily place a substance into
schedule I of the CSA.1 The
1 As discussed in a memorandum of
understanding entered into by the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) and the National Institute on
Drug Abuse (NIDA), the FDA acts as the lead agency
within the HHS in carrying out the Secretary’s
scheduling responsibilities under the CSA, with the
concurrence of NIDA. 50 FR 9518, Mar. 8, 1985.
The Secretary of the HHS has delegated to the
Assistant Secretary for Health of the HHS the
authority to make domestic drug scheduling
recommendations. 58 FR 35460, July 1, 1993.

Availability and Summary of Documents Proposed for Incorporation by
Reference
This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11A, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2016, and effective
September 15, 2016. FAA Order 7400.11A is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.
The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by modifying:
Class E airspace designated as a surface area at Findlay Airport,
Findlay, OH, by removing the segments extending from the 4.3-mile
radius 7.4 miles south and northeast of the airport, and updating the
geographic coordinates of the airport to coincide with the FAA's
aeronautical database;
And Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the
surface:
By updating the geographic coordinates of Ashland County Airport
and noting the name change of Samaritan Hospital Heliport (formerly
Samaritian Regional Health System), Ashland, OH, to coincide with the
FAA's aeronautical database;
Within a 6.4-mile radius (reduced from a 7-mile radius) of
Lakefield Airport, Celina, OH, and updating the geographic coordinates
of the airport to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database;
Within a 6.4-mile radius (reduced from a 10-mile radius) of
Pickaway County Memorial Airport, Circleville, OH, with an extension
from the 6.4-mile radius to 10.5 miles north of the airport, and within
a 6.5-mile radius (reduced from a 9.1-mile radius) of Ross County
Airport, Chillicothe, OH, and updating the geographic coordinates of
the Ross County Airport to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical
database;
By updating the geographic coordinates of Port Columbus
International Airport, Columbus, OH,
[[Page 66223]]
removing the Don Scott NDB from the boundary description, and within a
7.0-mile radius (increased from a 6.4-mile radius) of Fairfield County
Airport, Lancaster, OH; Within a 6.4-mile radius (reduced from a 7-mile
radius) of Defiance Memorial Airport, Defiance, OH, and updating the
geographic coordinates and name of Defiance Regional Medical Center
Heliport (formerly Defiance Hospital), Defiance, OH, to coincide with
the FAA's aeronautical database;
Within a 6.8-mile radius (reduced from a 7.4-mile radius) of
Findlay Airport, Findlay, OH, and within a 7.2-mile radius (increased
from a 6.6-mile radius) of Bluffton Airport, Findlay, OH, and updating
the geographic coordinates of these airports to coincide with the FAA's
aeronautical database;
Within a 6.9-mile radius (increased from a 6.6-mile radius) of
Butler County Regional Airport-Hogan Field, Hamilton, OH, and updating
the name of the airport (formerly Butler County Regional Airport) to
coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database;
By removing the Allen County VOR from the boundary description of
Lima Allen County Airport, Lima, OH, and updating the name of St.
Rita's Medical Center Heliport (formerly Saint Rita's Medical Center),
Lima, OH, and updating the geographic and point in space coordinates of
these airports to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database;
And by removing the segment extending from the 6.4-mile radius 7.4
miles west of Madison County Airport, London, OH.
Airspace reconfiguration is necessary due to the decommissioning of
NDBs, cancellation of NDB approaches, and implementation of RNAV
procedures at these airports. Controlled airspace is necessary for the
safety and management of standard instrument approach procedures for
IFR operations at the airports.
Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6002 and
6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.11A, dated August 3, 2016, and
effective September 15, 2016, 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.
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
This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
