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.

Availability and Summary of
Documents for Incorporation by
Reference
This document proposes to amend
FAA Order 7400.11D, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points,
dated August 8, 2019, and effective
September 15, 2019. FAA Order
7400.11D is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. FAA Order 7400.11D 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 area extending upward from
700 feet above the surface to within a
6.4-mile radius (decreased from a 6.5mile radius) at C E ‘Rusty’ Williams
Airport, Mansfield, LA; removing the
city associated with the airport to
comply with changes to FAA Order
7400.2M, Procedures for Handling
Airspace Matters; removing the
Mansfield RBN and associated
extension from the airspace legal
description; and updating the name and
geographic coordinates of the C E
‘Rusty’ Williams Airport (previously
DeSoto Parish Airport) to coincide with
the FAA’s aeronautical database.
These actions are the result of an
airspace review caused by the
decommissioning of the Mansfield NDB,
which provided navigation information
for the instrument procedures at this
airport.
Class E airspace designations are
published in paragraph 6005 of FAA
Order 7400.11D, dated August 8, 2019,
and effective September 15, 2019, 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.
FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on
September 15.

AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Strengthening
Protections for Social Security
Beneficiaries Act of 2018 (Strengthening
Protections Act) requires us to
promulgate regulations specifying the
information Social Security
beneficiaries and applicants must
provide to designate a representative
payee in advance of our determination
that the beneficiary needs a
representative payee. We propose to
revise our rules to satisfy this
requirement, and to specify that we will
allow individuals to designate in
advance one or more potential
representative payees. We also explain
how we propose to consider an
individual’s advance designation when
we select a representative payee.
DATES: To ensure that your comments
are considered, we must receive them
by no later than December 26, 2019.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments
by any one of three methods—internet,
fax, or mail. Do not submit the same
comments multiple times or by more
than one method. Regardless of which
method you choose, please state that
your comments refer to Docket No.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background on Representative Payees
A representative payee is a person or
an organization that we select to receive
and manage Social Security benefits,
Special Veterans benefits, and
Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
payments on behalf of a beneficiary.
Generally, beneficiaries have the right to
receive their benefits directly and
manage them independently. However,
we may determine that a beneficiary is
unable to manage or direct the
management of benefit payments
because of the beneficiary’s mental or
physical condition, or because of the
beneficiary’s age.1 In these cases, we
appoint a representative payee when we
believe it will serve the beneficiary’s
interest to receive benefits through a
representative payee instead of
receiving them directly.2
When we select a representative
payee, we will choose the designee of
the beneficiary’s highest priority,
provided that the designee is willing
and able to serve, is not prohibited from

serving,3 and supports the best interest
of the beneficiary.4 It is important for us
to select the best possible representative
payee to ensure that the benefits are
used for purposes in the best interest of
the beneficiary and in accordance with
other responsibilities and requirements
discussed in our regulations.5
Background on Section 201 of the
Strengthening Protections Act
President Trump signed the
Strengthening Protections Act into law
on April 13, 2018.6 Section 201 of that
Act, ‘‘Advance Designation of
Representative Payees,’’ amends section
205(j)(1) of the Social Security Act 7 to
allow for advance designation of
representative payees. It also requires us
to promulgate regulations specifying the
information that an individual must
provide to designate a representative
payee in advance.
Before we developed these proposed
regulations, we hosted a National
Disability Forum (NDF) on Advance
Designation of Representative Payees, at
which we received feedback from
panelists with experience in fields
relevant to our representative payee
program.8 We considered this feedback
in developing these proposed
regulations.
Explanation of Advance Designation
Section 201 of the Strengthening
Protections Act establishes that
individuals who are entitled to or
applying for a benefit under title II, title
VIII, or title XVI, and who have attained
18 years of age or are emancipated
minors, are permitted to designate in
advance one or more other individuals
as a possible representative payee. We
propose that these applicants or
beneficiaries may designate one or more
possible representative payees, provided
that we have not determined the
applicant or beneficiary is mentally or
physically incapable of managing
benefit payments, or that the applicant
or beneficiary has not been found
legally incompetent. Based on feedback
we received at the NDF, these advance
designations would not expire.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference
This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11D, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 8, 2019, and effective
September 15, 2019. FAA Order 7400.11D is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11D 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 area
extending upward from 700 feet above the surface to within a 6.4-mile
radius (decreased from a 6.5-mile radius) at C E `Rusty' Williams
Airport, Mansfield, LA; removing the city associated with the airport
to comply with changes to FAA Order 7400.2M, Procedures for Handling
Airspace Matters; removing the Mansfield RBN and associated extension
from the airspace legal description; and updating the name and
geographic coordinates of the C E `Rusty' Williams Airport (previously
DeSoto Parish Airport) to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical
database.
These actions are the result of an airspace review caused by the
decommissioning of the Mansfield NDB, which provided navigation
information for the instrument procedures at this airport.
Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.11D, dated August 8, 2019, and effective September 15,
2019, 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. FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, is published yearly and effective on September 15.
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.
