Proposed Amendment of Class E Airspace; Coeur D'Alene, ID, 47718-47720 [2020-17060]

Download as PDF 47718 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 152 / Thursday, August 6, 2020 / Proposed Rules The FAA estimates that the proposed actions would take 1.5 work-hours and require parts costing $5,000, for a cost of $5,127.50 per product and $71,785 for the U.S. operator fleet. Authority for This Rulemaking Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA’s authority to issue rules on aviation safety. 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. The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General requirements. Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action. Regulatory Findings The FAA determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed regulation: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866, (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and (3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by reference, Safety.

The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by modifying the Class E surface area airspace and establishing Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Coeur D’Alene—Pappy Boyington Field, Coeur D’Alene, ID. The Class E surface airspace 3.5 miles each side of the VOR/DME 251° radial west of the airport would be removed. The lateral boundary for the area south of the airport would be reduced from 1.8 miles each side of the 183° bearing to 1.3 miles and extend 6 miles from the airport instead of 8 miles. The additional airspace, in these two areas, is no longer required to support instrument operations. An area 1.8 miles each side of the 023° bearing would be added and extend 5 miles from the airport. This would enable instrument departures to reach 700 feet AGL before exiting the surface area. Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface would be established to within 4.4 miles of the airport with three areas extending beyond the 4.4-mile radius. One area, 4.4 miles each side of the 250° bearing, would extend from the airport 14.4 miles west. This section would accommodate the ILS and RNAV approaches. Another area would be established 1.3 miles each side of the 183° bearing and extend from the airport 10 miles south, to support the VOR approach. The third area would extend 1.8 miles each side of the 023° bearing 8 miles northeast from the airport. This section would protect aircraft using the Obstacle Departure Procedure. This airspace is necessary to support IFR approach and departure procedures at the airport. Additionally, an editorial change would be made to the legal description replacing ‘‘Airport/Facility Directory’’ with the term ‘‘Chart Supplement’’ and updating the name of the airport to match the FAA’s aeronautical database. Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6002 and 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. E:\FR\FM\06AUP1.SGM 06AUP1 47720 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 152 / Thursday, August 6, 2020 / Proposed Rules 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 modifying the Class E surface area 
airspace and establishing Class E airspace extending upward from 700 
feet above the surface at Coeur D'Alene--Pappy Boyington Field, Coeur 
D'Alene, ID.
    The Class E surface airspace 3.5 miles each side of the VOR/DME 
251[deg] radial west of the airport would be removed. The lateral 
boundary for the area south of the airport would be reduced from 1.8 
miles each side of the 183[deg] bearing to 1.3 miles and extend 6 miles 
from the airport instead of 8 miles. The additional airspace, in these 
two areas, is no longer required to support instrument operations. An 
area 1.8 miles each side of the 023[deg] bearing would be added and 
extend 5 miles from the airport. This would enable instrument 
departures to reach 700 feet AGL before exiting the surface area.
    Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface 
would be established to within 4.4 miles of the airport with three 
areas extending beyond the 4.4-mile radius. One area, 4.4 miles each 
side of the 250[deg] bearing, would extend from the airport 14.4 miles 
west. This section would accommodate the ILS and RNAV approaches. 
Another area would be established 1.3 miles each side of the 183[deg] 
bearing and extend from the airport 10 miles south, to support the VOR 
approach. The third area would extend 1.8 miles each side of the 
023[deg] bearing 8 miles northeast from the airport. This section would 
protect aircraft using the Obstacle Departure Procedure. This airspace 
is necessary to support IFR approach and departure procedures at the 
airport.
    Additionally, an editorial change would be made to the legal 
description replacing ``Airport/Facility Directory'' with the term 
``Chart Supplement'' and updating the name of the airport to match the 
FAA's aeronautical database.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6002 and

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.
