Establishment of Class E airspace; Leoti, KS, 13172-13173 [2021-04211]

Download as PDF 13172 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 43 / Monday, March 8, 2021 / Rules and Regulations jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES configuration does not properly contain IFR aircraft performing instrument approaches to the airport. To properly contain IFR arrivals, the areas to the east and the west of the airport have been expanded. This action also removes the Class E airspace extending upward from 1,200 feet above the surface. This area is wholly contained with the Denver en route airspace and duplication is not necessary. Further, this action removes the Four Corners Regional ILS Localizer from the Class D and Class E2 text headers and airspace descriptions. The action also removes the Farmington VORTAC from the Class E5 airspace text header and airspace description. The navigational aids (NAVAIDs) are not needed to define the airspace. Removal of the NAVAIDs allows the airspace to be defined from a single reference point which simplifies how the airspace is described. Lastly, this action implements several administrative corrections to the Class D, Class E2, and Class E5 airspaces’ legal descriptions. This action removes the city name from the second line of Class D, Class E2, and Class E5 text headers. The legal descriptions for the Class D and Class E2 airspace contain the outdated term ‘‘Airport/Facility Directory.’’ this action updates the term to ‘‘Chart Supplement.’’ The airport’s geographic coordinates in the Class D and Class E2 text headers do not match the FAA database; this action updates the geographic coordinates to ‘‘lat. 36°44′29″ N., long. 108°13′48″ W.’’ 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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:10 Mar 05, 2021 Jkt 253001 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 5–6.5a. This airspace action is not expected to cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant the preparation of an environmental assessment.

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 establishes Class E airspace at Mark Hoard Memorial Airport, 
Leoti, KS, 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 (85 FR 81167, December 15, 2020) for Docket No. FAA-2020-1072 
to establish Class E airspace for Mark Hoard Memorial Airport, Leoti, 
KS. 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 E5 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 designation 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 7400.11E, 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 Rule

    This amendment to 14 CFR part 71 establishes Class E airspace 
extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at the Mark Hoard 
Memorial Airport, Leoti, KS. The airspace is designed to contain IFR 
arrivals descending below 1,500 feet above the surface, and IFR 
departures to 1,200 feet above the surface. The airspace contains the 
new instrument approach and departure procedures that were developed 
for 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.

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 5-6.5a. This airspace action is not expected to 
cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no 
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant the preparation of an 
environmental assessment.
