Availability and Summary of
Documents for Incorporation by
Reference
This document proposes to amend
FAA Order 7400.11C, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points,
dated August 13, 2018, and effective
September 15, 2018. FAA Order
7400.11C is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. FAA Order 7400.11C 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 amending the Class D
airspace by updating for the location in
the header of the airspace legal
description to Detroit, MI (previously
Detroit City Airport, MI), at Coleman A.
Young Municipal Airport (formerly
Detroit City Airport), Detroit, MI, to
comply with FAA Order 7400.2L,
Procedures for Handling Airspace
Matters. The name and geographic
coordinates of the airport would also be
updated to coincide with the FAA’s
aeronautical database.
Class D airspace designations are
published in paragraph 5000 of FAA
Order 7400.11C, dated August 13, 2018,
and effective September 15, 2018, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class D airspace designation
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.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM).
AGENCY:
This action proposes to
establish Class E surface airspace at
Dothan Regional Airport, Dothan, AL.
The Class E surface airspace would be
established for the safety of aircraft
landing and departing the airport when
the air traffic control tower is closed.
Also, this action proposes to amend
Class D airspace by updating the
airport’s name and geographic
coordinates, as well as replacing the
outdated term ‘Airport/Facility
Directory’ with ‘Chart Supplement’.
Additionally, the geographic
coordinates of the airport and Wiregrass
VORTAC would be adjusted in the
associated Class E airspace to match the
FAA’s aeronautical database; as well as
removing the part-time status of the
airspace for Class E airspace designated
as an extension to a Class D surface area.
Controlled airspace is necessary for the
safety and management of instrument
flight rules (IFR) operations at this
airport.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference
This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11C, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 13, 2018, and effective
September 15, 2018. FAA Order 7400.11C is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11C 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 amending the Class D airspace by updating
for the location in the header of the airspace legal description to
Detroit, MI (previously Detroit City Airport, MI), at Coleman A. Young
Municipal Airport (formerly Detroit City Airport), Detroit, MI, to
comply with FAA Order 7400.2L, Procedures for Handling Airspace
Matters. The name and geographic coordinates of the airport would also
be updated to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database.
Class D airspace designations are published in paragraph 5000 of
FAA Order 7400.11C, dated August 13, 2018, and effective September 15,
2018, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D
airspace designation 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.
