SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On June 4, 2012, the FAA published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 

controlled airspace at Lewiston-Nez 

Perce County Airport, Lewiston, ID (77 

FR 32921). Interested parties were 

invited to participate in this rulemaking 

effort by submitting written comments 

on the proposal to the FAA. The FAA 

received one comment from the 

National Business Aviation Association 

(NBAA). 

The NBAA recommended making the 

Class E airspace area extending upward 

from 1,200 feet above the surface larger 

by lowering some of the adjacent Class 

E airspace, which begins from between 


wreier-aviles on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with 
68066 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 221 / Thursday, November 15, 2012 / Rules and Regulations 

10,000 Mean Sea Level (MSL) and 

14,500 MSL, for aircraft safety. The FAA 

found merit in this comment and further 

amended the NPRM with a 

supplemental NPRM (SNPRM) 

published in the Federal Register of 

August 21, 2012 (77 FR 50417). 

Interested parties were invited to 

participate in this rulemaking effort by 

submitting written comments on the 

proposal to the FAA. No comments 

were received. 

Class D and Class E airspace 

designations are published in 

paragraphs, 5000, 6002, 6004 and 6005, 

respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9W 

dated August 8, 2012, and effective 

September 15, 2012, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

Part 71.1. The Class D airspace and 

Class E airspace designations listed in 

this document will be published 

subsequently in that Order. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by 

modifying the Class E airspace area 

extending upward from 700 and 1,200 

feet above the surface at Lewiston-Nez 

Perce County Airport, Lewiston, ID, to 

accommodate aircraft using RNAV 

(GPS) standard instrument approach 

procedures at the airport. This action 

also updates the geographic coordinates 

of the airport, the Nez Perce VHF OmniDirectional Radio Range/Distance 

Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME), and 

the Lewiston-Nez Perce Instrument 

Landing System (ILS) Localizer 

navigation aids to coincide with the 

FAA’s aeronautical database. This 

action is necessary for the safety and 

management of IFR operations. 

The FAA has determined this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current. Therefore, this 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 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 

discusses 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 modifies 

controlled airspace at Lewiston-Nez 

Perce County Airport, Lewiston, ID. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1E, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 311a. 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: 

History 

On July 24, 2012, the FAA published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to 

establish controlled airspace at 

Coaldale, NV (77 FR 43181). Interested 

parties were invited to participate in 

this rulemaking effort by submitting 

written comments on the proposal to the 

FAA. The FAA received one comment 

from the National Business Aviation 

Association (NBAA). 

The NBAA felt the reasons put forth 

in the NPRM for lowering the Class E 

airspace down to 1,200 feet above the 

surface was vague and did not name the 

terminal areas specifically that would 

benefit from lowering the Class E 

airspace. The commenter also 

recommended that the FAA lower the 

Class E airspace in a much larger area 

pushing the airspace north to the 

boundaries of Oakland ARTCC and 

Seattle ARTCC airspace, and east to the 

boundaries of Oakland ARTCC and Salt 

Lake City ARTCC airspace. 

The FAA is creating this airspace at 

the request of the Oakland ARTCC to 

aid with the navigation of aircraft 

within the ARTCC’s airspace area by 

assisting aircraft arriving and departing 

numerous terminal areas. The FAA feels 

that making the area larger is not needed 

at this time and is outside the scope of 

this rulemaking. Further widening of 

the airspace would not serve the 

immediate purpose of establishing the 

Class E–6 en route airspace area to assist 

Oakland ARTCC. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6006, of FAA 

Order 7400.9W dated August 8, 2012, 

and effective September 15, 2012, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

Part 71.1. The Class E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in that 

Order. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by 

establishing Class E airspace extending 

upward from 1,200 feet above the 

surface, in the vicinity of the Coaldale 

VORTAC navigation aid, Coaldale, NV, 

to accommodate IFR aircraft under 

control of the Oakland ARTCC by 

vectoring aircraft from en route airspace 

to terminal areas. This action is 

necessary for the safety and 

management of IFR operations. 

The FAA has determined this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current. Therefore, this 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 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 

discusses 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 establishes 

controlled airspace at the Coaldale 

VORTAC, Coaldale, NV. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1E, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 311a. This airspace action is 

not expected to cause any potentially

no extraordinary circumstances exist 

that warrant preparation of an
