Authority for This Rulemaking
This action proposes to
amend Class E airspace at Fayetteville,
TN, as the Kelso Non-Directional
Beacon (NDB) has been
decommissioned, requiring airspace
reconfiguration at Fayetteville
Municipal Airport. Controlled airspace
is necessary for the safety and
management of instrument flight rules
(IFR) operations at the airport. This
action also would update the geographic
coordinates of the airport.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before May 22, 2017.
ADDRESSES: Send comments on this
proposal to: U.S. Department of
Transportation, Docket Operations, 1200

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 would
amend Class E airspace at Fayetteville
Municipal Airport, Fayetteville, TN.

Availability and Summary of
Documents 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 considering an
amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 to amend
Class E airspace extending upward from
700 feet or more above the surface
within a 6.6-mile radius of Fayetteville
Municipal Airport, due to the
decommissioning of the Kelso NDB and
cancellation of the NDB approach, and
for continued safety and management of
IFR operations at the airport. The
geographic coordinates of the airport
would be adjusted to coincide with the
FAAs aeronautical database.
Class E airspace designations are
published in Paragraph 6005 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 designation
listed in this document will be
published subsequently in the Order.
Regulatory Notices and Analyses
The FAA has determined that this
proposed regulation only involves an
established body of technical
regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to
keep them operationally current. 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
proposed rule, when promulgated, will
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,
