khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS
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 is proposing an amendment
to 14 CFR part 71 by modifying the
Class E airspace, designated as a surface
area at Williston Basin International
Airport, Williston, ND. This airspace is
designed to contain terminal operations.
An area to the northeast of the airport
is proposed to contain IFR aircraft
arriving runway 22 and aircraft
departing runway 04.
Additionally, this action proposes to
modify the Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface.
This airspace is designed to contain
arriving IFR aircraft descending below
1,500 feet above the surface and
departing IFR aircraft until reaching
1,200 feet above the surface. An area
northeast and another southwest of the
airport is proposed to contain IFR
aircraft arriving and departing the
airport.
Lastly, the action proposes to update
the geographic coordinates in the Class
E2 and Class E5 text headers. The
coordinates should be updated to lat.
48°15′35″ N, long. 103°45′02″ W, to
match the FAA database.
Class E2 and E5 airspace designations
are published in paragraphs 6002, and
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
regulation only involves an established
body of technical regulations for which
frequent and routine amendments are
necessary to keep them operationally
VerDate Sep<11>2014

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.

The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment
to 14 CFR part 71 by establishing Class
E en route domestic airspace extending
upward from 1,200 feet above the
surface at Mountain Home, ID. This
action would provide controlled
airspace to facilitate vectoring of IFR
aircraft under the control of Salt Lake
City ARTCC. The airspace would also
ensure proper containment of IFR
aircraft operating on direct routes where
the current en route structure is
insufficient. This action would enhance
the safety and management of IFR
operations within the NAS.
Class E6 airspace designations are
published in paragraph 6006 of FAA
Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020,
and effective September 15, 2020, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR

listed in this document will be

The FAA has determined that this

safe use of vitamin D3 as a nutrient
supplement in yogurt at a level higher
than what is currently permitted.
The petitioner has claimed that this
action is categorically excluded under
21 CFR 25.32(k) because the substance
is intended to remain in food through
ingestion by consumers and is not
intended to replace macronutrients in
food. In addition, the petitioner has
stated that, to their knowledge, no
extraordinary circumstances exist that
would warrant at least an environmental
assessment (see 21 CFR 25.21). If FDA
21675
determines a categorical exclusion
applies, neither an environmental
assessment nor an environmental
impact statement is required. If FDA
determines a categorical exclusion does
not apply, we will request an
environmental assessment and make it
available for public inspection.

AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Postal Service seeks
public comment on proposed revisions
to the service standards for marketdominant mail products. The Postal
Service proposes to apply a two-day
service standard to intra-Sectional
Center Facility (SCF) First-Class Mail
where the SCF is both the origin and
destination Processing & Distribution
Center or Facility (P&DC/F), and to
intra-SCF and inter-SCF First-Class Mail
if the combined drive time between the
origin P&DC/F, destination Area
Distribution Center (ADC), and
destination SCF is 3 hours or less. For
inter-SCF First-Class Mail within the 48
contiguous states (which include, for
purposes of these standards, the District
of Columbia) where the combined drive
time between the origin P&DC/F,
destination ADC, and destination SCF is
more than 3 hours, but does not exceed
20 hours, the Postal Service proposes a
three-day service standard; the same
standard would apply for intra-SCF
First-Class Mail if the combined drive
time exceeds 3 hours and the SCF is not
the origin P&DC/F. The Postal Service
proposes a four-day service standard for
inter-SCF First-Class Mail within the 48
contiguous states where the combined
drive time between the origin P&DC/F,
destination ADC, and destination SCF is
more than 20 hours, but does not exceed
41 hours; and for certain First-Class

certain portions of the non-contiguous

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 is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 by establishing
Class E en route domestic airspace extending upward from 1,200 feet
above the surface at Mountain Home, ID. This action would provide
controlled airspace to facilitate vectoring of IFR aircraft under the
control of Salt Lake City ARTCC. The airspace would also ensure proper
containment of IFR aircraft operating on direct routes where the
current en route structure is insufficient. This action would enhance
the safety and management of IFR operations within the NAS.
Class E6 airspace designations are published in paragraph 6006 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 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,
[[Page 21675]]
``Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures'' prior to any FAA
final regulatory action.
