AGENCY:
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 would

and Bentonville, AR, to support IFR
operations in the area.
This action proposes to
amend Class D airspace and Class E
surface airspace for the following
Arkansas airports: Rogers Executive
Airport-Carter Field (new name),
Springdale Municipal Airport, and
Bentonville Municipal Airport/Louise
M Thaden Field (new name), as well as
updating the airport’s names and
geographic coordinates. Controlled
airspace is necessary for the safety and
management of instrument flight rules
(IFR) operations in the area.

Availability and Summary of
Documents for Incorporation by
Reference
This document proposes to amend
FAA Order JO 7400.11G, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points,
dated August 19, 2022, and effective
September 15, 2022. FAA Order JO
7400.11G is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. FAA Order JO 7400.11G 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 amend Class D
airspace for Rogers Executive AirportCarter Field (formerly Rogers
Municipal/Carter Field) and Springdale
Municipal Airport by updating each
airport’s geographic coordinates to
coincide with the FAA’s database. Also,
Class E surface airspace would be
amended for the above airports and
Bentonville Municipal Airport/Louise
M Thaden Field (formerly Bentonville
Municipal/Louise M. Thadden Field).
This action would also update the
airport’s names and the dividing line of
the Class D airspace between Rogers
Executive Airport-Carter Field with the
Class E surface airspace of Bentonville
Municipal Airport/Louise M Thaden
Field. In addition, this action would
replace the outdated terms Airport/
Facility Directory with the term Chart
Supplement and Notice to Airmen with
the term Notice to Air Missions in the
airspace descriptions.
Class D and E airspace designations
are published in Paragraphs 5000 and
6002, respectively, of FAA Order JO
7400.11G, dated August 19, 2022, and
effective September 15, 2022, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class D and E airspace
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:20 Nov 10, 2022
Jkt 259001
designations listed in this document
will subsequently be published in FAA
Order JO 7400.11.
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
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.
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.

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 would amend airspace in Rogers, Springdale, and Bentonville, AR,
to support IFR operations in the area.
Comments Invited
Interested persons are invited to comment on this proposed
rulemaking by submitting such written data, views, or arguments as they
may desire. Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the
views and suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing
reasoned regulatory decisions on the proposal. Comments are
specifically invited on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic,
environmental, and energy-related aspects of the proposal.
Communications should identify both docket numbers (Docket No. FAA-
2022-0546 and Airspace Docket No. 22-ASW-10) and be submitted in
triplicate to DOT Docket Operations (see ADDRESSES section for the

Persons wishing the FAA to acknowledge receipt of their comments on
this action must submit with those comments a self-addressed stamped

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference
This document proposes to amend FAA Order JO 7400.11G, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 19, 2022, and effective
September 15, 2022. FAA Order JO 7400.11G is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11G
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 amend Class D
airspace for Rogers Executive Airport-Carter Field (formerly Rogers
Municipal/Carter Field) and Springdale Municipal Airport by updating
each airport's geographic coordinates to coincide with the FAA's
database. Also, Class E surface airspace would be amended for the above
airports and Bentonville Municipal Airport/Louise M Thaden Field
(formerly Bentonville Municipal/Louise M. Thadden Field). This action
would also update the airport's names and the dividing line of the
Class D airspace between Rogers Executive Airport-Carter Field with the
Class E surface airspace of Bentonville Municipal Airport/Louise M
Thaden Field. In addition, this action would replace the outdated terms
Airport/Facility Directory with the term Chart Supplement and Notice to
Airmen with the term Notice to Air Missions in the airspace
descriptions.
Class D and E airspace designations are published in Paragraphs
5000 and 6002, respectively, of FAA Order JO 7400.11G, dated August 19,
2022, and effective September 15, 2022, which is incorporated by
reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and E airspace designations
listed in this document will subsequently be published in FAA Order JO
7400.11.
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 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.
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.
