Discussion of Final Airworthiness
Directive
The Amendment
Comments
The FAA received one comment, from
Air Line Pilots Association,
International (ALPA), who supported
the NPRM without change.
Conclusion
The FAA reviewed the relevant data,
considered any comments received, and
determined that air safety requires
adopting this AD as proposed. Except
for minor editorial changes, this AD is
adopted as proposed in the NPRM.
None of the changes will increase the
economic burden on any operator.
This AD removes all actions of AD
2016–15–01. Therefore, the
requirements of AD 2016–15–01 are
terminated.

Authority for This Rulemaking
Title 49 of the United States Code
specifies the FAA’s authority to issue
rules on aviation safety. 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.
The FAA is issuing this rulemaking
under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section
44701: General requirements. Under
that section, Congress charges the FAA
with promoting safe flight of civil
aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and
procedures the Administrator finds
necessary for safety in air commerce.
This regulation is within the scope of
that authority.
Regulatory Findings
The FAA determined that this AD
will not have federalism implications
under Executive Order 13132. This AD
will not have a substantial direct effect
on the States, on the relationship
between the national government and
the States, or on the distribution of
power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government.
For the reasons discussed above, I
certify that this AD:
(1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory
action’’ under Executive Order 12866,
(2) Will not affect intrastate aviation
in Alaska, and
(3) Will not have a significant
economic impact, positive or negative,
on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act.

amending the West Palm Beach, FL

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 airspace extending upward from
700 feet above the surface at Hastings
Airport, Hastings, MI, to support
instrument flight rule operations at this
airport.

History
The FAA published an NPRM for
Docket No. FAA–2023–0913 in the
Federal Register (88 FR 24496; April 21,
2023) proposing to amend the Class E
airspace at Hastings, MI. Interested
parties were invited to participate in
this rulemaking effort by submitting
written comments on the proposal to the
FAA. No comments were received.
Incorporation by Reference
Class E airspace designations are
published in paragraph 6005 of FAA
Order JO 7400.11, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points,
which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1 on an annual basis. This
document amends the current version of
that order, FAA Order JO 7400.11G,
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. These amendments will be
published in the next update to FAA
Order JO 7400.11.
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 part 71
modifies the Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface
to within an 8.2-mile (increased from an
6.4-mile) radius of Hastings Airport,
Hastings, MI; removes the Grand Rapids
VOR/DME and the associated extension
from the airspace legal description;
removes the exclusion area as it is not
required; adds an extension within 2
miles each side of the 123° bearing from
the airport extending from the 8.2-mile
radius to 11.3 miles southeast of the
airport; adds an extension within 2
miles each side of the 303° bearing from
the airport extending from the 8.2-mile
radius to 9.9 miles northwest of the
airport; and updates the name
(previously Hastings Municipal Airport)
and geographic coordinates of the
airport to coincide with the FAA’s
aeronautical database.
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
