VOR, which provided navigation
information for the instrument
procedures at this airport, as part of the
VOR MON Program.
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
‘‘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 only affects air traffic
procedures and 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.

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 E surface airspace and Class E
airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface at Bartlesville
Municipal Airport, Bartlesville, OK;
amends the Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface
at Miami Regional Airport, Miami, OK;
and removes the Class E airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface at Jane Phillips Medical
Center Heliport, Bartlesville, OK, and
Baptist Regional Health Center Heliport,
Miami, OK, to support instrument flight
rule operations at these airports.
History
The FAA published a notice of
proposed rulemaking in the Federal
Register (87 FR 51621; August 23, 2022)
for Docket No. FAA–2022–1002 to
amend and remove Class E airspace at
Bartlesville and Miami, OK. 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 E airspace designations are
published in paragraphs 6002 and 6005,
respectively, of FAA Order JO 7400.11G,
dated August 19, 2022, and effective

the exclusionary language from the
airspace legal description as there is no
technical requirement for this area and
it imposes on protected airspace needed
for the current public instrument
procedures; updates the geographic
coordinates of the airport to coincide
with the FAA’s aeronautical database;
and replaces the outdated terms ‘‘Notice
to Airmen’’ with ‘‘Notice to Air
Missions’’ and ‘‘Airport/Facility
Directory’’ with ‘‘Chart Supplement’’;
Amends the Class E airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface to within a 6.6-mile
(decreased from a 6.8-mile) radius of
Bartlesville Municipal Airport; amends
the extension north of the airport to
within 4 miles (increased from 2.2
miles) each side of the 359° bearing
from the Bartlesville Municipal: RWY
17–LOC (previously Dewie LOM)
extending from the 6.6-mile (decreased
from 6.8-mile) radius of the airport to
14.1 miles (increased from 11.7 miles)
north of the airport; amends the
extension south of the airport to 4.1
miles east and 7.6 miles west
(previously 1.6 miles each side) of the
Bartlesville VOR/DME 168° (previously
176°) radial extending from the 6.6-mile
(decreased from 6.8-mile) radius to 15.5
(increased from 11.3) miles south of the
Bartlesville VOR/DME (previously the

the airport from the Bartlesville VOR/
DME as it is no longer needed; removes
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:18 Nov 25, 2022
Jkt 259001
the Jane Phillips Medial Center Heliport
point in space and associated airspace
as the associated instrument procedures
have been cancelled and the airspace is
no longer required; removes the Dewie
LOM from the airspace legal description
as it is no longer required; and updates
the geographic coordinates of the airport
and the Bartlesville VOR/DME to
coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical
database;
And amends the Class E airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface to within a 6.5-mile
(decreased from a 7.3-mile) radius of
Miami Regional Airport, Miami, OK;
removes the Baptist Regional Health
Center Heliport point in space
coordinates and associated airspace
from the airspace legal description as
the associated instrument procedures
have been cancelled and the airspace is
no longer required; and updates name of
the airport to coincide with the FAA’s
aeronautical database.
This action is due to airspace reviews
conducted as part of the
decommissioning of the Oswego VOR,
which provided navigation information
for the instrument procedures at these
airports, as part of the VOR MON
Program.
FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace

ACTION:
This action corrects a final
rule published by the FAA in the
Federal Register on October 24, 2022,
that amends United States Area
Navigation (RNAV) route T–269 in the
vicinity of Yakutat, AK, in support of a
large and comprehensive T-route
modernization project for the state of
Alaska. The final rule identified the
MALAS, AK, route point as a waypoint
(WP), in error. This action makes an
editorial correction to the reference of
the MALAS, AK, WP to change it to be
reflected as a Fix and match the FAA’s
National Airspace System Resource
(NASR) database information.
DATES: Effective date 0901 UTC,
December 29, 2022. The Director of the

24, 2022), amending T–269 in support
of a large and comprehensive T-route
modernization project for the state of
Alaska. Additionally, the FAA
published a final rule correction in the
Federal Register (87 FR 65680;
November 1, 2022), correcting T–269 to
reflect the KATAT, AK, route point as
a Fix. Subsequent to publication of the
final rule correction, the FAA
determined that the MALAS, AK, route
point was also inadvertently identified
as a WP, in error. This rule corrects that
error by changing the reference of the
MALAS, AK, WP to the MALAS, AK,
Fix. This is an editorial change only to
match the FAA’s NASR database
information and does not alter the
alignment of the affected T–269 route.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference
This document amends 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 Rule
This amendment to 14 CFR 71:
Amends the Class E airspace surface airspace to within a 4.1-mile
(decreased from 4.3-mile) radius of Bartlesville Municipal Airport,
Bartlesville, OK; and within 1 mile each side of the 359[deg] bearing
from the airport extending from the 4.1-mile radius to 4.6 miles north
of the airport; and within 1.5 miles each side of the Bartlesville VOR/
DME 168[deg] radial extending from the 4.1-mile radius of the airport
to 4.4 miles south of the airport; and within 1 mile each side of the
179[deg] bearing from the airport extending from the 4.1-mile radius to
4.5 miles south of the airport; removes the exclusionary language from
the airspace legal description as there is no technical requirement for
this area and it imposes on protected airspace needed for the current
public instrument procedures; updates the geographic coordinates of the
airport to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database; and replaces
the outdated terms ``Notice to Airmen'' with ``Notice to Air Missions''
and ``Airport/Facility Directory'' with ``Chart Supplement'';
Amends the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface to within a 6.6-mile (decreased from a 6.8-mile) radius of
Bartlesville Municipal Airport; amends the extension north of the
airport to within 4 miles (increased from 2.2 miles) each side of the
359[deg] bearing from the Bartlesville Municipal: RWY 17-LOC
(previously Dewie LOM) extending from the 6.6-mile (decreased from 6.8-
mile) radius of the airport to 14.1 miles (increased from 11.7 miles)
north of the airport; amends the extension south of the airport to 4.1
miles east and 7.6 miles west (previously 1.6 miles each side) of the
Bartlesville VOR/DME 168[deg] (previously 176[deg]) radial extending
from the 6.6-mile (decreased from 6.8-mile) radius to 15.5 (increased
from 11.3) miles south of the Bartlesville VOR/DME (previously the
airport); removes the extension north of the airport from the
Bartlesville VOR/DME as it is no longer needed; removes the Jane
Phillips Medial Center Heliport point in space and associated airspace
as the associated instrument procedures have been cancelled and the
airspace is no longer required; removes the Dewie LOM from the airspace
legal description as it is no longer required; and updates the
geographic coordinates of the airport and the Bartlesville VOR/DME to
coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database;
And amends the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface to within a 6.5-mile (decreased from a 7.3-mile)
radius of Miami Regional Airport, Miami, OK; removes the Baptist
Regional Health Center Heliport point in space coordinates and
associated airspace from the airspace legal description as the
associated instrument procedures have been cancelled and the airspace
is no longer required; and updates name of the airport to coincide with
the FAA's aeronautical database.
This action is due to airspace reviews conducted as part of the
decommissioning of the Oswego VOR, which provided navigation
information for the instrument procedures at these airports, as part of
the VOR MON Program.
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 ``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 only affects air traffic procedures and 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 5-6.5.a. 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.
