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 establishes Class E airspace to support IFR operations at Antone Ranch Airport, Mitchell, OR. AGENCY: History This action establishes Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Antone Ranch Airport, Mitchell, OR, in support of the airport’s transition from visual flight rules (VFR) to instrument flight rules (IFR) operations. DATES: Effective date 0901 UTC, May 16, 2024. Director of the Federal Register The FAA published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for Docket No. FAA–2023–2027 in the Federal Register (88 FR 72407; October 20, 2023), proposing to establish Class E airspace at Antone Ranch Airport, Mitchell, OR. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received.

Within line three of the legal description text header, the longitudinal coordinate reads 119°50′38″ W, but it should read 119°50′39″ W instead. Within the legal description body, the word ‘‘airport’’ was used twice without the appropriate punctuation to show possession. Lastly, the airspace docket number reads, in part, AMN, but it should read ANM instead. These changes are reflected within the final rule. Incorporation by Reference The Class E5 airspace designation is 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 7400.11H, dated August 11, 2023, and effective September 15, 2023. FAA Order JO 7400.11H 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 7400.11H 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 establishing Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Antone Ranch Airport, Mitchell, OR, in support of the airport’s transition from VFR to IFR operations. The airspace extends 8.4 miles east and 10.4 miles west and northwest of the airport reference point to contain departing and missed approach IFR operations until reaching 1,200 feet above the surface on the Runway (RWY) 7 and RWY 25 RIFTE ONE (OBSTACLE) Area Navigation (RNAV) departures, and the RNAV (Global Positioning System [GPS]) M RWY 25 missed approach. Additionally, this airspace contains arriving IFR operations below 1,500 feet above the surface on the RNAV (GPS) M RWY 25 approach. 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 E:\FR\FM\19MRR1.SGM 19MRR1 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 54 / Tuesday, March 19, 2024 / Rules and Regulations 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.

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 establishes Class E airspace to support IFR operations 
at Antone Ranch Airport, Mitchell, OR.

History

    The FAA published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for Docket No. 
FAA-2023-2027 in the Federal Register (88 FR 72407; October 20, 2023), 
proposing to establish Class E airspace at Antone Ranch Airport, 
Mitchell, OR. Interested parties were invited to participate in this 
rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the 
FAA. No comments were received.

Differences From the NPRM

    Subsequent to the NPRM publication, the FAA identified 
typographical errors within the airspace docket number and proposed 
legal description. Within line three of the legal description text 
header, the longitudinal coordinate reads 119[deg]50'38'' W, but it 
should read 119[deg]50'39'' W instead. Within the legal description 
body, the word ``airport'' was used twice without the appropriate 
punctuation to show possession. Lastly, the airspace docket number 
reads, in part, AMN, but it should read ANM instead. These changes are 
reflected within the final rule.

Incorporation by Reference

    The Class E5 airspace designation is 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 
7400.11H, dated August 11, 2023, and effective September 15, 2023. FAA 
Order JO 7400.11H 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 7400.11H 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 establishing Class E airspace 
extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Antone Ranch 
Airport, Mitchell, OR, in support of the airport's transition from VFR 
to IFR operations.
    The airspace extends 8.4 miles east and 10.4 miles west and 
northwest of the airport reference point to contain departing and 
missed approach IFR operations until reaching 1,200 feet above the 
surface on the Runway (RWY) 7 and RWY 25 RIFTE ONE (OBSTACLE) Area 
Navigation (RNAV) departures, and the RNAV (Global Positioning System 
[GPS]) M RWY 25 missed approach. Additionally, this airspace contains 
arriving IFR operations below 1,500 feet above the surface on the RNAV 
(GPS) M RWY 25 approach.

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

[[Page 19509]]

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.
