Download as PDF 63330 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 150 / Monday, August 5, 2024 / Proposed Rules reference in 14 CFR 71.1 on an annual basis. This document proposes to amend 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 Proposal This action proposes to amend 14 CFR part 71 by amending Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface for Gainesville Regional Airport, Gainesville, FL, by increasing the airspace within a 7-mile radius (previously 6 miles) of Shands Cair Heliport, FL serving multiple heliports. Additionally, this action would also delete the Point In Space Coordinates for Shands Hospital and use Shands Cair Heliport as a reference to accommodate both hospital’s Class E airspace requirements. Also, this action would replace the terms Notice to Airmen with Notice to Air Missions and Airport/Facility Directory with Chart Supplement in the Class D and Class E descriptions. Controlled airspace is necessary for the safety and management of instrument flight rules (IFR) operations in the area. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1 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 will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. Environmental Review This proposal would be subject to an environmental analysis in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:08 Aug 02, 2024 Jkt 262001 Procedures,’’ prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

the safe use of spirulina extract in foods generally in amounts 
consistent with good manufacturing practice.
    The petitioner has claimed that this action is categorically
