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 modifies
and removes Class E airspace to support
IFR operations at Hollister Municipal
Airport, Hollister, CA.
History
The FAA published a notice of
proposed rulemaking for Docket No.
FAA–2023–1852 in the Federal Register
(89 FR 14004; February 26, 2024) for the
modification of Class E airspace at
Hollister Municipal Airport, Hollister,
CA. Interested parties were invited to
participate in this rulemaking effort by
submitting written comments on the
proposal to the FAA. No comments
were received.

The Rule
This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by
modifying the Class E airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface at Hollister Municipal
Airport, Hollister, CA.
The Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface
at the airport to the southeast is reduced
to be within 1.2 miles northeast and 1.1
miles southwest of the 142° bearing
from the airport extending from the 6.5mile radius to 8.2 miles southeast of the
airport to better contain arriving IFR
operations below 1,500 feet above the
surface on the RNAV (GPS) RWY 31
approach. Additionally, the airspace is
extended northwest to include that
airspace within 2 miles on either side of
the airport’s 322° bearing extending
from the 6.5-mile radius to 9.6 miles
northwest of the airport. This would
contain arriving IFR operations below
1,500 feet above the surface while
executing the RNAV (GPS) RWY 13
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
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.

I. Background
Section 4s(e) of the Commodity
Exchange Act (‘‘CEA’’ or the ‘‘Act’’)
requires the Commission to adopt
minimum capital and margin
requirements for SDs and MSPs.1 On
September 15, 2020, the Commission
issued final rules adopting such
requirements under part 23 of the
Commission’s regulations (the ‘‘Final
Rule’’ or the ‘‘Final Rules’’).2 The Final
Rules became effective on November 16,
2020, with an extended compliance date
of October 6, 2021 (‘‘2021 Compliance
Date’’).3 The Final Rules imposed
capital requirements on SDs and MSPs
that are not subject to a prudential
regulator (‘‘nonbank SDs’’ and
‘‘nonbank MSPs,’’ respectively).4 The
Final Rules included a detailed capital
model application process whereby
eligible nonbank SDs and nonbank
MSPs could apply to the Commission,
or a registered futures association
(‘‘RFA’’) of which they are a member,
for approval.5 The Final Rules also
adopted a capital comparability
determination process for certain
eligible foreign domiciled nonbank SDs
and nonbank MSPs to seek substituted
compliance for the Commission’s
capital and financial reporting
requirements.6 Further, the Final Rules
adopted detailed financial reporting,
recordkeeping and notification
requirements, including limited
financial reporting requirements for SDs
and MSPs subject to the capital
requirements of a prudential regulator
(‘‘bank SDs’’ and ‘‘bank MSPs,’’

4 Id. The term ‘‘prudential regulator’’ is defined as
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System (‘‘Federal Reserve Board’’); the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency (‘‘OCC’’); the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (‘‘FDIC’’); the Farm
Credit Administration; and the Federal Housing
Finance Agency. Section 1a(39) of the CEA, 7 U.S.C.
1a(39).
5 See generally Final Rules, 85 FR 57467. The
three methods discussed in detail in the Final Rules
include the Bank-Based Capital Approach, the
Tangible Net Worth Capital Approach, and the Net
Liquid Assets Capital Approach (as defined
therein). Each method permits the use of models
upon approval of the Commission or an RFA and
determines the frequency and type of financial
reporting information to be provided to the
Commission by each nonbank SD and nonbank
MSP.

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 Greenville Airport, Greenville, IL, and Vandalia
Municipal Airport, Vandalia, IL, to support IFR operations at these
airports.
History
The FAA published an NPRM for Docket No. FAA-2024-0272 in the
Federal Register (89 FR 14005; February 26, 2024) proposing to amend
the Class E airspace at Greenville, IL, and Vandalia, IL. 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
7400.11H, 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 amendment to 14 CFR part 71:
Modifies the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface to within a 6.4-mile (decreased from a 7-mile) radius of
Greenville Airport, Greenville, IL; and updates the geographic
coordinates of the airport to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical
database;
And modifies the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface at Vandalia Municipal Airport, Vandalia, IL, by
updating the 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 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.
