62446 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 200 / Friday, October 16, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 

Order 7400.9YZ, dated August 6, 2015, 

and effective September 15, 2015, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designation 

listed in this document will be 

published subsequently in the Order. 

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, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. 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 1050.1E, ‘‘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: 

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

airspace. This regulation is within the 

scope of that authority as it establishes 

Class E airspace at Parlin Field Airport,

History 

On August 14, 2015, the FAA

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

to establish Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Parlin Field Airport, Newport, NH, 

(80 FR 48766). 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 E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9Z dated August 6, 2015, 

and effective September 15, 2015, which

Amendment of Class D and Class E 

Airspace, Revocation of Class E 

Airspace; Mountain Home, ID 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action modifies Class D 

airspace, Class E surface area airspace, 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface, and removes 

Class E surface area airspace designated 

as an extension at Mountain Home AFB, 

Mountain Home, ID. The FAA found it 

necessary to amend the airspace area by 

increasing the Class D airspace and 

reducing the Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

for the safety and management of 

Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations 

for arriving and departing aircraft at the 

airport and to change from navigation 

aids to geographic coordinate references 

in the legal description. This action 

updates the geographic coordinates of 

Mountain Home Municipal Airport, 

Mountain Home, ID.
