SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with RULES
Authority for This Rulemaking
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 establishes
Class E airspace, and amends Class D
and Class E airspace at Choctaw NOLF,
Milton, FL, to support IFR operations at
the airport.
History
The FAA published a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM in the
Federal Register (83 FR 9242, March 5,
2018) for Docket No. FAA–2018–0062 to
amend Class D airspace and Class E
airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface at Choctaw NOLF,
Milton, FL, and establish Class E surface
area airspace at Choctaw NOLF, Milton,
FL.
Interested parties were invited to
participate in this rulemaking effort by
submitting written comments on the
proposal to the FAA. One comment was
received supporting the proposal.
Class D and E airspace designations
are published in paragraph 5000, 6002,
and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order
7400.11B dated August 3, 2017, and
effective September 15, 2017, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
part 71.1. The Class D and E airspace
designations listed in this document
will be published subsequently in the
Order.

Designations and Reporting Points,
dated August 3, 2017, and effective
September 15, 2017. FAA Order
7400.11B is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. FAA Order 7400.11B lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,
air traffic service routes, and reporting
points.
The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by:
Amending Class D airspace at
Choctaw NOLF, Milton, FL, by adjusting
the geographic coordinates of the airport
and the Santa Rosa TACAN navigation
aid to be in concert with the FAA’s
aeronautical database. Also, this action
makes an editorial change in the
airspace designation replacing the city
associated with the airport name from
Pensacola, to Milton, to comply with a
change to FAA Order 7400.2L,
Procedures for Handling Airspace
Matters. Additionally, this action
replaces the outdated term ‘‘Airport/
Facility Directory’’ with the term ‘‘Chart
Supplement’’ in the airspace legal
description;
Establishing Class E surface area
airspace at Choctaw NOLF, Milton, FL,
within a 2.5-mile radius of Choctaw
NOLF, with an extension from the 2.5mile radius to 10.5 miles south of the
Santa Rosa TACAN, for the safety of
aircraft landing and departing the
airport after the air traffic control tower
closes; and Amending Class E airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface at Choctaw NOLF, Milton,
FL, by adjusting the geographic
coordinates of the airport to be in
concert with the FAA’s aeronautical
database. This action also makes an
editorial change by removing the airport
name, Choctaw Outlying Field, from the
airspace designation, which now
becomes Milton, FL.
This action amends the geographic
coordinates of these airports and the
Keesler TACAN navigation aid to be in
concert 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 7400.11B, dated August 3,
2017, and effective September 15, 2017,
which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1. The Class D and 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
PO 00000
Frm 00009
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
43969
frequent and routine amendments are
necessary to keep them operationally
current. Therefore, this regulation: (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 only affects air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when
promulgated, does 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 exist
that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.

September 15, 2017. FAA Order 7400.11B is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11B lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.
The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 by:
Amending Class D airspace at Choctaw NOLF, Milton, FL, by adjusting
the geographic coordinates of the airport and the Santa Rosa TACAN
navigation aid to be in concert with the FAA's aeronautical database.
Also, this action makes an editorial change in the airspace designation
replacing the city associated with the airport name from Pensacola, to
Milton, to comply with a change to FAA Order 7400.2L, Procedures for
Handling Airspace Matters. Additionally, this action replaces the
outdated term ``Airport/Facility Directory'' with the term ``Chart
Supplement'' in the airspace legal description;
Establishing Class E surface area airspace at Choctaw NOLF, Milton,
FL, within a 2.5-mile radius of Choctaw NOLF, with an extension from
the 2.5-mile radius to 10.5 miles south of the Santa Rosa TACAN, for
the safety of aircraft landing and departing the airport after the air
traffic control tower closes; and Amending Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface at Choctaw NOLF, Milton, FL, by
adjusting the geographic coordinates of the airport to be in concert
with the FAA's aeronautical database. This action also makes an
editorial change by removing the airport name, Choctaw Outlying Field,
from the airspace designation, which now becomes Milton, FL.
This action amends the geographic coordinates of these airports and
the Keesler TACAN navigation aid to be in concert 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 7400.11B,
dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15, 2017, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and 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.
Therefore, this regulation: (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 only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, does 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 exist that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.
