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 D
airspace, Class E surface area airspace,
and Class E airspace extending upward
from 700 feet above the surface at
Friedman Memorial Airport, Hailey, ID,
to support implementation of new
RNAV (GPS) standard instrument
approach procedures at the airport. The
new RNAV (GPS) procedures require
additional Class D airspace in the
vicinity of the airport for circling
maneuvers, but require less airspace
upward from 700 feet above the surface
to support IFR arrival and departure
aircraft. Class D airspace would be
expanded from the surface to and
including 7,800 feet MSL to within a
4.9-mile radius (increased from a 4.1mile radius) of the airport, with an
extension from the 4.9-mile radius
increased from 6 miles to 6.3 miles
southeast.
Class E surface area airspace would be
reduced to within a 4.9-mile radius of
the airport, with a segment increased
from 6 miles to 6.3 miles southeast of
the airport to provide controlled
airspace when Class D airspace is not in
effect.
Class E airspace extending upward
from 700 feet above the surface would
be reduced to within a 4.9-mile radius
of the airport (from the 5.5-mile radius),
with the southeast segment reduced
from 15.5 miles to 11.3 miles from the
radius of the airport. Additionally, the
geographic coordinates for the airport
listed in the Class D description would
be updated to coincide with the FAA’s
aeronautical database.
Class D and Class E airspace
designations are published in paragraph
5000, 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 D and 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
This supplemental notice of
proposed rulemaking would establish
Class E airspace upward from 700 feet
above the surface within a 4.7-mile
radius of Manti-Ephraim Airport, Manti,
UT, with segments extending north and
southwest of the airport. In an NPRM

November 22, 2016, the FAA proposed
to establish Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface
within a 4-mile radius of Manti-Ephraim

southwest. The FAA found additional
airspace is necessary for new category D
circling Instrument Flight Rules (IFR)
operations for standard instrument
approach procedures and to support the
safety and management of IFR
operations at the airport.

notice of proposed rulemaking

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 D airspace, Class E
surface area airspace, and Class E airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface at Friedman Memorial Airport, Hailey, ID, to
support implementation of new RNAV (GPS) standard instrument approach
procedures at the airport. The new RNAV (GPS) procedures require
additional Class D airspace in the vicinity of the airport for circling
maneuvers, but require less airspace upward from 700 feet above the
surface to support IFR arrival and departure aircraft. Class D airspace
would be expanded from the surface to and including 7,800 feet MSL to
within a 4.9-mile radius (increased from a 4.1-mile radius) of the
airport, with an extension from the 4.9-mile radius increased from 6
miles to 6.3 miles southeast.
Class E surface area airspace would be reduced to within a 4.9-mile
radius of the airport, with a segment increased from 6 miles to 6.3
miles southeast of the airport to provide controlled airspace when
Class D airspace is not in effect.
Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface
would be reduced to within a 4.9-mile radius of the airport (from the
5.5-mile radius), with the southeast segment reduced from 15.5 miles to
11.3 miles from the radius of the airport. Additionally, the geographic
coordinates for the airport listed in the Class D description would be
updated to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database.
Class D and Class E airspace designations are published in
paragraph 5000, 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 D and 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.
