AGENCY:
This action proposes to

The Proposal
PART 71—DESIGNATION OF CLASS A,
B, C, D, AND E AIRSPACE AREAS; AIR
TRAFFIC SERVICE ROUTES; AND
REPORTING POINTS
The FAA is proposing an amendment
to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations
(14 CFR) Part 71 by modifying Class E
airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface at Hebron
Municipal Airport, Hebron, NE.
Airspace reconfiguration is necessary
due to the decommissioning and
cancellation of the NDB, and NDB
approaches, which would enhance the
safety and management of the standard
instrument approach procedures for IFR
operations at the airport.
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 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.
