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 by amending the Class
E airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface at Ashland
Regional Airport, Ashland, KY, by
adding an extension 2 miles either side
of the 098° bearing from the airport
extending from the 6.5-mile radius to
10.4 miles east of the airport; adding an
extension 2 miles either side of the 278°
bearing from the airport extending from
the 6.5-mile radius to 10.5 miles west of
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 247001
the airport; removing the exclusionary
language, as it is no longer required; and
would update the name of the Ashland
Regional Airport (formerly AshlandBoyd County Airport) to coincide with
the FAA’s aeronautical database.
This action is the result of an airspace
review caused by the amendment of the
instrument procedures at the airport,
which require additional airspace to
comply with FAA Order, 7400.2M,
Procedures for Handling Airspace.
Class E airspace designations are
published in paragraph 6005 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 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.

This document proposes to amend

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 by amending the Class
D airspace at Acadiana Regional
Airport, New Iberia, LA, to within a 4.2mile radius (reduced from a 4.4-mile
radius); adding an extension within
1-mile each side of the 168° bearing
from the airport extending from the 4.2mile radius to 4.5-miles south of the
airport; removing the city associated
with the airport from the legal
description to comply with FAA Order
7400.2M, Procedures for Handling
Airspace Matters; and would make an
editorial change replacing the outdated
term ‘‘Airport/Facility Directory’’ with
‘‘Chart Supplement’’.
This action is the result of an airspace
review caused by the decommissioning
of the ACADI NDB, which provided
navigation information for the
instrument procedures at this airport.
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 designations
listed in this document will be
published subsequently in the Order.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.
AGENCY:
The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax
and Trade Bureau (TTB) proposes to
establish the approximately 144,000acre ‘‘Tualatin Hills’’ viticultural area in
portions of Multnomah and Washington
Counties, in Oregon. TTB is also
proposing to establish the
approximately 33,600-acre ‘‘Laurelwood
District’’ viticultural area in portions of
Washington and Yamhill Counties, in
Oregon. TTB is proposing these two
viticultural areas simultaneously
because, if established, a small portion
of their boundaries would be
contiguous. Both proposed viticultural
areas are located entirely within the
existing Willamette Valley viticultural
area, and the proposed Laurelwood
District viticultural area is also located
entirely within the existing Chehalem
Mountains viticultural area. TTB
designates viticultural areas to allow
vintners to better describe the origin of
their wines and to allow consumers to
better identify wines they may
purchase. TTB invites comments on this
proposed addition to its regulations.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background on Viticultural Areas
TTB Authority
Section 105(e) of the Federal Alcohol
Administration Act (FAA Act), 27
U.S.C. 205(e), authorizes the Secretary
of the Treasury to prescribe regulations
for the labeling of wine, distilled spirits,
and malt beverages. The FAA Act
provides that these regulations should,
among other things, prohibit consumer
deception and the use of misleading
statements on labels and ensure that
labels provide the consumer with
adequate information as to the identity
and quality of the product. The Alcohol
and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau
(TTB) administers the FAA Act
pursuant to section 1111(d) of the
Homeland Security Act of 2002,
codified at 6 U.S.C. 531(d). The
Secretary has delegated various
authorities through Treasury
Department Order 120–01, dated
December 10, 2013, (superseding
Treasury Order 120–01, dated January
24, 2003), to the TTB Administrator to
perform the functions and duties in the
administration and enforcement of these
provisions.
Part 4 of the TTB regulations (27 CFR
part 4) authorizes TTB to establish
definitive viticultural areas and regulate
the use of their names as appellations of
origin on wine labels and in wine
advertisements. Part 9 of the TTB
regulations (27 CFR part 9) sets forth
standards for the preparation and
submission of petitions for the
establishment or modification of
American viticultural areas (AVAs) and
lists the approved AVAs.
Definition
Section 4.25(e)(1)(i) of the TTB
regulations (27 CFR 4.25(e)(1)(i)) defines
a viticultural area for American wine as
a delimited grape-growing region having
distinguishing features, as described in
part 9 of the regulations, and a name

Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by amending the Class D airspace at
Acadiana Regional Airport, New Iberia, LA, to within a 4.2-mile radius
(reduced from a 4.4-mile radius); adding an extension within 1-mile
each side of the 168[deg] bearing from the airport extending from the
4.2-mile radius to 4.5-miles south of the airport; removing the city
associated with the airport from the legal description to comply with
FAA Order 7400.2M, Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters; and would
make an editorial change replacing the outdated term ``Airport/Facility
Directory'' with ``Chart Supplement''.
This action is the result of an airspace review caused by the
decommissioning of the ACADI NDB, which provided navigation information
for the instrument procedures at this airport.
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 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
[[Page 28442]]
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.
