Availability and Summary of
Documents for Incorporation by
Reference
This document proposes to amend
FAA Order 7400.11E, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points,
dated July 21, 2020, and effective
September 15, 2020. FAA Order
7400.11E is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. FAA Order 7400.11E lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,
air traffic service routes, and reporting
points.
The Proposal
The FAA proposes an amendment to
14 CFR part 71 to establish Class E
airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface for Morton
Hospital Heliport, Taunton, MA, to
accommodate new area navigation
(RNAV) global positioning system (GPS)
standard instrument approach

procedures (SIAPs) serving this heliport.
In addition, the FAA proposes to amend
Class E airspace extending upward from
700 feet above the surface by updating
the name and geographic coordinates of
Taunton Municipal Airport-King Field,
Taunton, MA.
This action would also eliminate
unnecessary verbiage in the airport’s
description, as Class E airspace is
shared equally between FAA facilities.
Class E airspace designations are
published in Paragraph 6005, of FAA
Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020,
and effective September 15, 2020, 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
proposed regulation only involves an
established body of technical
regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to
keep them operationally current. 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
proposed rule, when promulgated, will
not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act.
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.

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,

The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment
to 14 CFR part 71 by revoking the Class
E airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface to at Mineola
Wisener Field, Mineola, TX; and
updating the city in the header of the

This action is the result of the
cancellation of the instrument

Mineola, TX.
Class E airspace designations are
published in paragraph 6005 of FAA
Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020,

Regulatory Notices and Analyses
The FAA has determined that this

unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a

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.
