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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:41 Jul 11, 2019 Jkt 247001 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 surface airspace at Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field, Huntsville, AL, by updating the city in the airspace legal description to Huntsville, AL (previously Huntsville InternationalCarl T. Jones Field, AL), to comply with a change to FAA Order 7400.2M, Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters; updating the geographic coordinates of the Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field; updating the name of Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field (previously Huntsville InternationalCarl T. Jones Field Airport) and Redstone AAF (previously Redstone Army Air Field) to coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical database; and would replace the outdated term ‘‘Airport/ Facility Directory’’ with ‘‘Chart Supplement’’; Establishing a Class E airspace area designated as an extension to a Class C surface area at Huntsville InternationalCarl T. Jones Field extending 1 mile each side of the 181° bearing from the Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field: RWY 36L–LOC extending from the 5-mile radius of Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field to 6.3 miles south of the Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field: RWY 36L–LOC; And amending the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface to within a 7.5-mile radius (reduced from an 8.2-mile radius) of Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field; adding an extension 3 miles each side of the 001° bearing from Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field extending from the 7.5-mile radius to 12.3 miles north of the Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field; adding an extension 1.3 miles each side of the 181° bearing from the Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field: RWY 36L–LOC extending from the 7.5-mile radius to 8.3 miles south of the Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field: RWY 36L–LOC; updating the names of Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field (previously Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Airport), Pryor Field Regional Airport (previously Pryor Field), Decatur, AL, and Huntsville Executive Tom Sharp Jr. Field (previously Huntsville Airport PO 00000 Frm 00023 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 33197 North), Huntsville, AL, to coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical database; and would update the geographic coordinates of Huntsville InternationalCarl T. Jones Field, Pryor Field Regional Airport, and Huntsville Executive Tom Sharp Jr. Field to coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical database. This action is the result of an airspace review caused by the decommissioning of the Decatur VOR, which provided navigation information for the instrument procedures at these airports, as part of the VOR MON Program. Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6002, 6003, and 6005, respectively, 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.

from the 7.5-mile radius to 8.3 miles south of the Huntsville 
International-Carl T. Jones Field: RWY 36L-LOC; updating the names of 
Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field (previously Huntsville 
International-Carl T. Jones Airport), Pryor Field Regional Airport 
(previously Pryor Field), Decatur, AL, and Huntsville Executive Tom 
Sharp Jr. Field (previously Huntsville Airport North), Huntsville, AL, 
to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database; and would update the 
geographic coordinates of Huntsville International-Carl T. Jones Field, 
Pryor Field Regional Airport, and Huntsville Executive Tom Sharp Jr. 
Field to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database.
    This action is the result of an airspace review caused by the 
decommissioning of the Decatur VOR, which provided navigation 
information for the instrument procedures at these airports, as part of 
the VOR MON Program.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6002, 
6003, and 6005, respectively, 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.
