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 D airspace; amends the Class E surface airspace; amends the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface; and revokes the Class E airspace area designated as an extension to Class D and Class E surface E:\FR\FM\23JYR1.SGM 23JYR1 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 139 / Friday, July 23, 2021 / Rules and Regulations airspace at Cape Girardeau Regional Airport, Cape Girardeau, MO, to support IFR operations at this airport. History The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal Register (86 FR 22368, April 28, 2021) for Docket No. FAA–2021–0003 to amend Class D airspace, Class E surface airspace, and Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Cape Girardeau Regional Airport, Cape Girardeau, MO, to accommodate area navigation (RNAV) global positioning system (GPS) standard instrument approach procedures (SIAPs) serving this airport. Also, the FAA is removing the Class E airspace area designated as an extension to Class D and Class E surface areas at Cape Girardeau Regional Airport, as it is no longer required. 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 D and Class E airspace designations are published in Paragraphs 5000, 6002, 6004, and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020, and effective September 15, 2020, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1.

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 routes, and reporting points. The Rule The FAA is amending 14 CFR part 71 by: Amending the Class D airspace at Cape Girardeau Regional Airport, Cape Girardeau, MO, by adding an extension 1 mile each side of the 021° bearing from the airport extending from the 4.1mile radius to 4.4 miles north of the airport; and adding an extension 1 mile each side of the 106° bearing from the Cape Girardeau RGNL: RWY 10–LOC extending from the 4.1-mile radius of the airport to 4.4 miles east of the Cape Girardeau RGNL: RWY 10–LOC; Amending the Class E surface airspace at Cape Girardeau Regional Airport by removing the vertical limit VerDate Sep<11>2014 15:54 Jul 22, 2021 Jkt 253001 on the airspace as it is not required; adding an extension 1 mile each side of the 021° bearing from the airport extending from the 4.1-mile radius to 4.4 miles north of the airport; and adding an extension 1 mile each side of the 106° bearing from the Cape Girardeau RGNL: RWY 10–LOC extending from the 4.1-mile radius of the airport to 4.4 miles east of the Cape Girardeau RGNL: RWY 10–LOC; Removing the Class E airspace area designated as an extension to Class D and Class E surface area at Cape Girardeau Regional Airport as it is no longer required; And amending the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Cape Girardeau Regional Airport by removing the Cape Girardeau VOR/DME and associated extension from the airspace legal description; updating the bearing of the north extension to 021° (previously 023°); updating the bearing of the east extension to 106° (previously 108°) and changing the reference of the extension to the Cape Girardeau RGNL: RWY 10– LOC (previously the airport); updating the bearing of the south extension to 201° (previously 203°); and updating the bearing of the west extension to 286° (previously 280°); and updating the name of the Cape Girardeau RGNL: RWY 10–LOC (previously Cape Girard Regional Localizer) to coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical database. This action is necessary due to an airspace review caused by the decommissioning of the Marion VOR, which provided navigation information for the instrument procedures this airport, as part of the VOR MON Program. 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. 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 minimal. Since this is a routine matter that only affects air traffic procedures an air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated, does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial PO 00000 Frm 00013 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 38917 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 preparation of an environmental assessment.

106[deg] (previously 108[deg]) and changing the reference of the 
extension to the Cape Girardeau RGNL: RWY 10-LOC (previously the 
airport); updating the bearing of the south extension to 201[deg] 
(previously 203[deg]); and updating the bearing of the west extension

VOR MON Program.
    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. 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 minimal. Since this is a routine matter that only 
affects air traffic procedures an 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 5-6.5a. 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.
