### 1378 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 6 / Monday, January 10, 2011 / Proposed Rules

Mosby, MO. Airspace reconfiguration is necessary due to the decommissioning of the Mosby NDB and the cancellation of the NDB approach. Controlled airspace is necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations at the airport.

Class E airspace areas are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9U, dated August 18, 2010, and effective September 15, 2010, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designation listed in this document would be published subsequently in the Order.

The FAA has determined that this proposed 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 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.

The FAA’s authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, 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 would modify controlled airspace at Midwest National Air Center Airport, Mosby, MO.

**Proposed Amendment of Class E Airspace; Kokomo, IN** 

**AGENCY :**  Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

**ACTION :**  Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM).

**SUMMARY :**  This supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking would expand Class E airspace to include the Regional Health System Heliport, Kokomo, IN. In an NPRM published in the Federal Register August 18, 2010, the FAA proposed to amend controlled airspace at Kokomo Municipal Airport, Kokomo, IN. The FAA has reassessed the proposal to include controlled Class E airspace for new standard instrument approach procedures (SIAP) at the heliport. This action is necessary to further the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations in the Kokomo, IN area.

**DATES :**  Comments must be received on or before February 24, 2011.

**ADDRESSES :**  Send comments on this proposal to the U.S. Department of Transportation, Docket Operations, M– 30, West Building Ground Floor, Room W12–140, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC 20590; telephone (202) 366–9826.

On August 18, 2010, the FAA published a NPRM to amend Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet or more above the surface, at Kokomo Municipal Airport, Kokomo, IN (75 FR 50947). The comment period closed October 4, 2010. No comments were received. Subsequent to publication, the FAA reassessed the proposal so that it would include controlled airspace for new Copter RNAV SIAPs at Regional Health System Heliport, Kokomo, IN. The FAA seeks comments on this SNPRM.

Persons interested in being placed on a mailing list for future NPRMs should contact the FAA’s Office of Rulemaking, (202) 267–9677, for a copy of Advisory Circular No. 11–2A, Notice of Proposed Rulemaking Distribution System, which describes the application procedure. The Supplemental Proposal

The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by amending Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Kokomo Municipal Airport, Kokomo, IN. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface also would be added to accommodate aircraft using the new COPTER RNAV (POINT IN SPACE) standard instrument approach procedures at Regional Health System Heliport, Adjustments to some geographic coordinates in the description, as well as the name change of Logansport Municipal Airport to Logansport/Cass County Airport also would be made and would enhance the safety and management of IFR operations.

Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005, of FAA Order 7400.9U, dated August 18, 2010, and effective September 15, 2010, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designation listed in this document will be published subsequently in this Order.

The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. Therefore, this proposed regulation: (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, would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

The FAA’s authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, section 106, describes the authority for 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 would amend controlled airspace in the Kokomo, IN area.
