Download as PDF 10050 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 35 / Friday, February 21, 2020 / Rules and Regulations 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 would establish Class E airspace at Alpine Airport, Alpine, WY, to ensure the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the airport. History The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal Register (84 FR 67383; December 10, 2019) for Docket No. FAA–2019–0811 to establish Class E airspace at Alpine Airport, Alpine, WY. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. One comment was received. The commenter recommended the airport should be decommissioned. The comment is not germane to the establishment of airspace to contain IFR procedures. Class E5 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.

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 Rule This amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 establishing Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet or more above the surface at the Alpine Airport, Alpine, WY. The Class E airspace supports the airport’s transition from VFR to IFR operations. Specifically, it will, to the extent possible, contain IFR departures VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:38 Feb 20, 2020 Jkt 250001 until reaching 1,200 feet above the surface and IFR arrivals when descending below 1,500 feet above the surface. The first airspace area extends upward from 700 feet above the surface within a 4.0-mile radius to the airport, and within 1 mile each side of the 179° bearing from the airport, extending from the 4.0-mile radius to 5.8 south of the airport, and within 1.8 miles each side of the 321° bearing from the airport, extending from the 4.0-mile radius to 10.5 miles northwest of the airport. The second airspace area extends upward from 1,200 feet above the surface within a 13-mile radius of the airport. 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.

Differences From the NPRM In the NPRM proposal section addressing the proposed amendment to RNAV route T–285 and in the regulatory text section describing T–285, the North Platte, NE, NAVAID was identified as a VORTAC, in error. The North Platte, NE, NAVAID is a VOR/Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME) facility. This rule corrects that editorial error in the rule section and regulatory text. Also in the NPRM proposal section, one of the proposed amendments to T– 285 indicated that the Rapid City VORTAC ‘‘RAP’’ identifier would be added to the first line of the route description. This too was in error and should have stated the North Platte, NE, VOR/DME ‘‘LBF’’ identifier would be added. The regulatory text for the T–285 description correctly indicated ‘‘North Platte, NE (LBF)’’ in the first line of the description as was intended. This rule corrects that editorial error in the rule section. These editorial corrections do not change the route’s structure, operational use, or charted depiction, and are consistent with the proposed amendments to T–285.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

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 amends the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above 
the surface at Chandler Regional Airport, Chandler, OK, and Cushing 
Municipal Airport, Cushing, OK, which are contained within the Shawnee, 
OK, airspace legal description, to support instrument flight rule 
operations at these airports.

History

    The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal 
Register (84 FR 67880; December 12, 2019) for Docket No. FAA-2019-0908 
to amend Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the 
surface at Chandler Regional Airport, Chandler, OK, and Cushing 
Municipal Airport, Cushing, OK, which are contained within the Shawnee, 
OK, airspace legal description. Interested parties were invited to 
participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on 
the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received. 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.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends 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 Rule

    This amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71:
    Removes the city associated with Seminole Municipal Airport, 
Seminole, OK, contained within the Shawnee, OK, airspace legal 
description, from the airspace legal description to comply with changes 
to FAA Order 7400.2M, Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters;
    Amends the Class E airspace area extending upward from 700 feet 
above the surface at Chandler Regional Airport, Chandler, OK, by 
removing the Tilghman NDB and associated extension from the airspace 
legal description;
    And amends the Class E airspace area extending upward from 700 feet 
above the surface at Cushing Municipal Airport, Cushing, OK, by 
removing the Cushing NDB and associated extension from the airspace 
legal description.
    These actions are the result of airspace reviews caused by the 
decommissioning of the Tilghman and Cushing NDBs, which provided 
navigation information for the instrument procedures at these airports.
    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 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 5-6.5.a. 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.
