VerDate Sep<11>2014 15:52 Jul 03, 2023 Jkt 259001 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 the 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 updates the information in the Daytona Beach, FL Class C airspace description. History During a review of the Daytona Beach, FL Class C airspace description, the FAA identified the need to update the name and ARP geographic coordinates for the Daytona Beach Regional Airport, and to update the text header format for the Daytona Beach Class C airspace description as published in FAA Order JO 7400.11G. Incorporation by Reference Class C airspace areas are published in paragraph 4000 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. PO 00000 Frm 00001 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 The Rule This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by updating the Daytona Beach, FL Class C airspace description as published in FAA Order JO 7400.11G, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points. The name ‘‘Daytona Beach Regional Airport’’ is changed to ‘‘Daytona Beach International Airport’’ to match the Airport Master Record database. The ARP geographic coordinates are updated from ‘‘lat. 29°10′52″ N, long. 81°03′21″ W’’ to ‘‘lat. 29°10′48″ N, long. 81°03′29″ W’’ which matches the FAA’s NASR database information. Additionally, the airport name is moved from the first line in the text header of the description to the second line. These changes align with the current formatting standard. In the body of the Class C description, the name ‘‘Daytona Beach Regional Airport’’ is changed to ‘‘Daytona Beach International Airport.’’ This action consists of administrative changes only and does not affect the boundaries, altitudes, or operating requirements of the airspace. Therefore, notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) is unnecessary. 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 Department of Transportation (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 of amending the Daytona Beach, FL Class C airspace description to update the airport name, and geographic coordinates of the airport reference point (ARP) to match the FAA’s NASR database information, qualifies for E:\FR\FM\05JYR1.SGM 05JYR1 42870 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 127 / Wednesday, July 5, 2023 / Rules and Regulations categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and its implementing regulations at 40 CFR part 1500, and in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures, paragraph 5–6.5a, which categorically excludes from further environmental impact review rulemaking actions that designate or modify classes of airspace areas, airways, routes, and reporting points (see 14 CFR part 71, Designation of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace Areas; Air Traffic Service Routes; and Reporting Points). As such, this action is not expected to result in any potentially significant environmental impacts. In accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, paragraph 5–2 regarding Extraordinary Circumstances, the FAA has reviewed this action for factors and circumstances in which a normally categorically excluded action may have a significant environmental impact requiring further analysis. Accordingly, the FAA has determined that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment or environmental impact study.

ACTION: Direct final rule. AGENCY: The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is amending its delegations and designations rule to make nonsubstantive changes to correct citations and titles throughout and clarify regulatory text in specific sections. SUMMARY: This direct final rule is effective on September 5, 2023. Comments due on or before August 4, 2023. If adverse comments are received, NASA will publish a timely withdrawal of the rule in the Federal Register. ADDRESSES: Comments must be identified with RINs 2700–AE70 and may be sent to NASA via the Federal ERulemaking Portal: https:// www.regulations.gov. Follow the online instructions for submitting comments. Please note that NASA will post all comments on the internet with changes, including any personal information provided. DATES: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Daniela Cruzado, 202–295–7589. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Direct Final Rule and Significant Adverse Comments NASA has determined that this rulemaking meets the criteria for a direct final rule because it makes nonsubstantive changes to correct citations and titles and clarify regulatory text in specific sections. No opposition to the changes and no significant adverse comments are expected. However, if NASA receives significant PO 00000 Frm 00002 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 adverse comments, it will withdraw this direct final rule by publishing a notice in the Federal Register. A significant adverse comment is one that explains: (1) Why the direct final rule is inappropriate, including challenges to the rule’s underlying premise or approach; or (2) why the direct final rule will be ineffective or unacceptable without a change. In determining whether a comment necessitates withdrawal of this direct final rule, NASA will consider whether it warrants a substantive response in a notice and comment process. Background Subpart 5 of part 1204, promulgated March 13, 1965 [30 FR 3378], established delegations and designations for NASA officials and other Government agencies acting on behalf of the Agency to carry out functions related to real estate and related matters, granting easements, leaseholds, permits, and licenses in real property, executing certificates of full faith and credit, and taking actions on liquidated damage. Sections 1204.501, 1204.503, and 1204.504 will be amended to correct citations and titles, and to clarify regulatory text in specific sections. Statutory Authority The National Aeronautics and Space Act (the Space Act), 51 U.S.C. 20113 (a), authorizes the Administrator of NASA to make, promulgate, issue, rescind, and amend rules and regulations governing the manner of its operations and the exercise of the powers vested in it by law. Regulatory Analysis Executive Order (E.O.) 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review and E.O. 13563, Improvement Regulation and Regulation Review E.O.s 13563 and 12866 direct agencies to assess all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). E.O. 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility. This rule has been designated as ‘‘not significant’’ under E.O. 12866.

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 
the 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 updates the information in the Daytona Beach, FL Class 
C airspace description.

History

    During a review of the Daytona Beach, FL Class C airspace 
description, the FAA identified the need to update the name and ARP 
geographic coordinates for the Daytona Beach Regional Airport, and to 
update the text header format for the Daytona Beach Class C airspace 
description as published in FAA Order JO 7400.11G.

Incorporation by Reference

    Class C airspace areas are published in paragraph 4000 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 action amends 14 CFR part 71 by updating the Daytona Beach, FL 
Class C airspace description as published in FAA Order JO 7400.11G, 
Airspace Designations and Reporting Points. The name ``Daytona Beach 
Regional Airport'' is changed to ``Daytona Beach International 
Airport'' to match the Airport Master Record database. The ARP 
geographic coordinates are updated from ``lat. 29[deg]10'52'' N, long. 
81[deg]03'21'' W'' to ``lat. 29[deg]10'48'' N, long. 81[deg]03'29'' W'' 
which matches the FAA's NASR database information. Additionally, the 
airport name is moved from the first line in the text header of the 
description to the second line. These changes align with the current 
formatting standard. In the body of the Class C description, the name 
``Daytona Beach Regional Airport'' is changed to ``Daytona Beach 
International Airport.''
    This action consists of administrative changes only and does not 
affect the boundaries, altitudes, or operating requirements of the 
airspace. Therefore, notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) 
is unnecessary.

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 
Department of Transportation (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 of amending the Daytona 
Beach, FL Class C airspace description to update the airport name, and 
geographic coordinates of the airport reference point (ARP) to match 
the FAA's NASR database information, qualifies for

[[Page 42870]]

categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act (42 
U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and its implementing regulations at 40 CFR part 
1500, and in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts: 
Policies and Procedures, paragraph 5-6.5a, which categorically excludes 
from further environmental impact review rulemaking actions that 
designate or modify classes of airspace areas, airways, routes, and 
reporting points (see 14 CFR part 71, Designation of Class A, B, C, D, 
and E Airspace Areas; Air Traffic Service Routes; and Reporting 
Points). As such, this action is not expected to result in any 
potentially significant environmental impacts. In accordance with FAA 
Order 1050.1F, paragraph 5-2 regarding Extraordinary Circumstances, the 
FAA has reviewed this action for factors and circumstances in which a 
normally categorically excluded action may have a significant 
environmental impact requiring further analysis. Accordingly, the FAA 
has determined that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant 
preparation of an environmental assessment or environmental impact 
study.
