Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 211 / Thursday, November 4, 2021 / Rules and Regulations
Points, dated August 10, 2021, and
effective September 15, 2021, is

FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on
September 15.
Paragraph 6002 Class E Airspace Areas
Designated as a Surface Area.
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.

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 Portland-Troutdale
Airport, Portland, OR, to ensure the
safety and management of IFR
operations at the airport.
History
The FAA published a notice of
proposed rulemaking in the Federal
Register (86 FR 44668; August 13, 2021)
for Docket No. FAA–2021–0637 to
establish Class E airspace at PortlandTroutdale Airport, Portland, OR.
Interested parties were invited to

After the publication of the NPRM,
the FAA discovered a typo in the
longitudinal coordinates listed for
Portland International Airport. The final
rule corrects the coordinates from ‘‘lat.

‘‘lat. 45°35′19″ N, long. 122°35′49″W ’’.
Class D, Class E2, and Class E4
airspace designations are published in
paragraphs 5000, 6002, and 6004,
respectively, of FAA Order JO 7400.11F,
dated August 10, 2021, and effective
September 15, 2021, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class E airspace designation
listed in this document will be
published subsequently in FAA Order
JO 7400.11.

Availability and Summary of
Documents for Incorporation by
Reference
This document amends FAA Order JO
7400.11F, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 10,
2021, and effective September 15, 2021.
FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly
available as listed in the ADDRESSES
section of this document. FAA Order JO
7400.11F 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 at PortlandTroutdale Airport, Portland, OR. The
additional airspace is designed to
properly contain IFR aircraft descending
below 1,000 feet above the surface on
the RNAV (GPS)-A approach.
This action also implements
numerous administrative updates to the
Class D and Class E2 text headers and
airspace descriptions. The first line of
the text headers is updated from ‘‘ANM
OR D Portland-Troutdale, OR’’ to ‘‘ANM
OR D Portland, OR’’, Portland is the
official city for the airport. The second
line of the text headers is updated from
‘‘Portland-Troutdale Airport, Troutdale,
OR’’ to ‘‘Portland-Troutdale Airport,
OR’’, this line should only list the
airport name and state. A fourth and
fifth line of text should be added to the
headers. The lines should read
‘‘Portland International Airport, OR’’
and ‘‘(lat. 45°35′19″ N, long. 122°35′49″
W)’, respectively. The additional lines
are necessary because the airspace
descriptions contain exclusionary
language for Portland International
Airport’s Class C airspace area. The term
Airport/Facility Directory’’ in the last
sentence of the Class D airspace
description is outdated and should be
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 256001
corrected to ‘‘Chart Supplement.’’ The
Class E2 airspace area is not in use
continuously, to accurately describe the
airspace, the following sentences should
be added to the description. ‘‘This Class
E airspace area is effective during the
specific dates and times established in
advance by a Notice to Airmen. The
effective date and time will thereafter be
continuously published in the Chart
Supplement.’’
FAA Order JO 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

Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a
‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44

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

(EAR) by adding four entities to the
Entity List. These four entities have
been determined by the U.S.
Government to be acting contrary to the
foreign policy and national security
interests of the United States and will be
listed on the Entity List under the
destinations of Israel, Russia, and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DATES:
Background

Entity List
The Entity List (supplement no. 4 to
part 744 of the EAR) identifies entities
for which there is reasonable cause to
believe, based on specific and
articulable facts, that the entities have
been involved, are involved, or pose a
significant risk of being or becoming
involved in activities contrary to the
national security or foreign policy
interests of the United States. The EAR
(15 CFR parts 730–774) impose
additional license requirements on, and
limit the availability of most license
exceptions for, exports, reexports, and
transfers (in-country) to listed entities.
The license review policy for each listed
entity is identified in the ‘‘License
Review Policy’’ column on the Entity
List, and the impact on the availability
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:17 Nov 03, 2021
Jkt 256001
of license exceptions is described in the
relevant Federal Register document
adding entities to the Entity List. Bureau
of Industry and Security (BIS) places
entities on the Entity List pursuant to
part 744 (Control Policy: End-User and
End-Use Based) and part 746
(Embargoes and Other Special Controls)
of the EAR.
The End-User Review Committee
(ERC), composed of representatives of
the Departments of Commerce (Chair),
State, Defense, Energy and, where
appropriate, the Treasury, makes all
decisions regarding additions to,
removals from, or other modifications to
the Entity List. The ERC makes all
decisions to add an entry to the Entity
List by majority vote and makes all
decisions to remove or modify an entry
by unanimous vote.
This rule implements the decision of
the ERC to add four entities to the Entity
List. The four entities are added based
on § 744.11 (License requirements that
apply to entities acting contrary to the
national security or foreign policy
interests of the United States) of the
EAR. The four entities are located in
Israel, Russia, and Singapore.
The ERC determined that NSO Group
and Candiru be added to the Entity List
based on § 744.11(b) of the EAR: Entities
for which there is reasonable cause to
believe, based on specific and
articulated facts, that the entity has been
involved, is involved, or poses a
significant risk of being or becoming
involved in activities that are contrary
to the national security or foreign policy
interests of the United States and those
acting on behalf of such entities.
Specifically, investigative information
has shown that the Israeli companies
NSO Group and Candiru developed and
supplied spyware to foreign
governments that used this tool to
maliciously target government officials,
journalists, businesspeople, activists,
academics, and embassy workers.
The ERC determined that Positive
Technologies, located in Russia, and
Computer Security Initiative
Consultancy PTE. LTD., located in
Singapore, be added to the Entity List
based on their engagement in activities
counter to U.S. national security.
Specifically, these entities traffic in
cyber exploits used to gain access to
information systems, threatening the
privacy and security of individuals and
organizations worldwide.
Pursuant to § 744.11(b) of the EAR,
the ERC determined that the conduct of
the above-described four entities raises
PO 00000
Frm 00007
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
60759
sufficient concerns that prior review, via
the imposition of a license requirement
for exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) of all items subject to the EAR
involving these four entities and the
possible issuance of license denials or
the possible imposition of license
conditions on shipments to these
entities, will enhance BIS’s ability to
prevent violations of the EAR or
otherwise protect U.S. national security
or foreign policy interests. In addition,
the ERC also determined that no license
exceptions should be available for
exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) to the persons being added to
the Entity List in this rule. The ERC
imposed a license review policy of a
presumption of denial for these four
entities. The acronym ‘‘a.k.a.,’’ which is
an abbreviation of ‘also known as,’ is
used in entries on the Entity List to
identify aliases, thereby assisting
exporters, reexporters, and transferors in
identifying entities on the Entity List.
For the reasons described above, this
final rule adds the following four
entities to the Entity List and includes,
where appropriate, aliases:
Israel
• Candiru; and
• NSO Group
Russia
• Positive Technologies
Singapore
• Computer Security Initiative
Consultancy PTE. LTD.
Savings Clause
Shipments of items removed from
eligibility for a License Exception or
export, reexport, or transfer (in-country)
without a license (NLR) as a result of
this regulatory action that were en route
aboard a carrier to a port of export,
reexport, or transfer (in-country), on
November 4, 2021, pursuant to actual
orders for export, reexport, or transfer
(in-country) to or within a foreign
destination, may proceed to that
destination under the previous
eligibility for a License Exception or
export, reexport, or transfer (in-country)
without a license (NLR).

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 Portland-Troutdale Airport,
Portland, OR, to ensure the safety and management of IFR operations at
the airport.
History
The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal
Register (86 FR 44668; August 13, 2021) for Docket No. FAA-2021-0637 to
establish Class E airspace at Portland-Troutdale Airport, Portland, OR.
Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking
effort by
[[Page 60758]]
submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments
were received.
After the publication of the NPRM, the FAA discovered a typo in the
longitudinal coordinates listed for Portland International Airport. The
final rule corrects the coordinates from ``lat. 45[deg]35'19'' N, long.
112[deg]35'49'' W'' to ``lat. 45[deg]35'19'' N, long. 122[deg]35'49''W
''.
Class D, Class E2, and Class E4 airspace designations are published
in paragraphs 5000, 6002, and 6004, respectively, of FAA Order JO
7400.11F, dated August 10, 2021, and effective September 15, 2021,
which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace
designation listed in this document will be published subsequently in
FAA Order JO 7400.11.
Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference
This document amends FAA Order JO 7400.11F, Airspace Designations
and Reporting Points, dated August 10, 2021, and effective September
15, 2021. FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11F 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 at
Portland-Troutdale Airport, Portland, OR. The additional airspace is
designed to properly contain IFR aircraft descending below 1,000 feet
above the surface on the RNAV (GPS)-A approach.
This action also implements numerous administrative updates to the
Class D and Class E2 text headers and airspace descriptions. The first
line of the text headers is updated from ``ANM OR D Portland-Troutdale,
OR'' to ``ANM OR D Portland, OR'', Portland is the official city for
the airport. The second line of the text headers is updated from
``Portland-Troutdale Airport, Troutdale, OR'' to ``Portland-Troutdale
Airport, OR'', this line should only list the airport name and state. A
fourth and fifth line of text should be added to the headers. The lines
should read ``Portland International Airport, OR'' and ``(lat.
45[deg]35'19'' N, long. 122[deg]35'49'' W)', respectively. The
additional lines are necessary because the airspace descriptions
contain exclusionary language for Portland International Airport's
Class C airspace area. The term Airport/Facility Directory'' in the
last sentence of the Class D airspace description is outdated and
should be corrected to ``Chart Supplement.'' The Class E2 airspace area
is not in use continuously, to accurately describe the airspace, the
following sentences should be added to the description. ``This Class E
airspace area is effective during the specific dates and times
established in advance by a Notice to Airmen. The effective date and
time will thereafter be continuously published in the Chart
Supplement.''

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.
