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 Austin Airport, Austin,
NV.
History
The FAA published a notice of
proposed rulemaking for Docket No.
FAA–2024–2104 in the Federal Register
(89 FR 75510; September 16, 2024),
proposing to establish Class E airspace
at Austin Airport, Austin, NV.
Interested parties were invited to
participate in this rulemaking effort by
submitting written comments on the
proposal to the FAA. Two identical
comments were received in favor of the
proposal.

PART 71—DESIGNATION OF CLASS A,

REPORTING POINTS
1. The authority citation for 14 CFR
part 71 continues to read as follows:
This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by
establishing Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface
at Austin Airport, Austin, NV.
The Class E airspace includes that
airspace within a 3.5-mile radius of the
Austin Airport Reference Point as well
as three extensions due to rising terrain
to the north and southwest of the
airport. The two northern expansions
contain departing IFR operations until
reaching 1,200 feet above the surface
and arriving IFR operations below 1,500
feet above the surface. The southwest
extension contains departing IFR
operations until reaching 1,200 feet
above the surface.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses
ANM NV E5 Austin, NV [New]
Austin Airport, NV
(Lat. 39°28′05″ N, long. 117°11′51″ W)
That airspace extending upwards from 700
feet above the surface within a 3.5-mile
radius of the airport, within 1.1 miles west
and 1.6 miles east of the airport’s 021°
bearing extending to 8.2 miles north of the
airport, within 2.2 miles on either side of the
airport’s 203° bearing extending to 7.9 miles
southwest of the airport, and within the
airport’s 317° bearing clockwise to the 012°
bearing extending from the airport’s 3.5-mile
radius to its 6.3-mile radius.
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.

(89 FR 71189; September 03, 2024),

at Camp Guernsey Airport, Guernsey,
WY.
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 D, Class E2 and Class E5
airspace areas are published in
paragraph 5000, 6002, and 6005,
respectively, 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 7400.11J, dated July 31, 2024, and

Order JO 7400.11J is publicly available
as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this

FAA Order JO 7400.11J 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
modifying the Class E5 airspace area at
Camp Guernsey Airport, Guernsey, WY.
The Class E5 airspace area is modified
to within a 6.7-mile radius of the airport
and within 6.7 miles each side of the
airport’s 143° bearing extending from
the 6.7-mile radius to 18 miles southeast
of the airport, excluding that airspace
within R–7001A and R–7002B when
active. This modification accommodates
IFR arrival operations descending
through 1,500 feet above the surface and
departing IFR operations until reaching
1,200 feet above the surface.
Additionally, administrative
amendments have changed Camp
Guernsey Airport’s legal descriptions.
The city location is amended to
Guernsey, WY. The airport’s Class D
airspace and Class E2 surface area legal
descriptions have the updated part-time
airspace text. Lastly, exclusionary text
referencing special use airspace has
been added to all airspace legal
descriptions associated with Camp
Guernsey Airport, WY.

and Class E5 airspace area to support IFR operations at Camp Guernsey
Airport, Guernsey, WY.
History
The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking for Docket No.
FAA-2024-1856 in the Federal Register (89 FR 71189; September 03,

Incorporation by Reference
Class D, Class E2 and Class E5 airspace areas are published in
paragraph 5000, 6002, and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order JO 7400.11,
Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, which is incorporated by

FAA Order JO 7400.11J 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 modifying the Class E5
airspace area at Camp Guernsey Airport, Guernsey, WY.
The Class E5 airspace area is modified to within a 6.7-mile radius
of the airport and within 6.7 miles each side of the airport's 143[deg]
bearing extending from the 6.7-mile radius to 18 miles southeast of the
airport, excluding that airspace within R-7001A and R-7002B when
active. This modification accommodates IFR arrival operations
descending through 1,500 feet above the surface and departing IFR
operations until reaching 1,200 feet above the surface.
Additionally, administrative amendments have changed Camp Guernsey
Airport's legal descriptions. The city location is amended to Guernsey,
WY. The airport's Class D airspace and Class E2 surface area legal
descriptions have the updated part-time airspace text. Lastly,
exclusionary text referencing special use airspace has been added to
all airspace legal descriptions associated with Camp Guernsey Airport,

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.
