The Proposal 

The FAA is considering an 

amendment to the Code of Federal 

Regulations (14 CFR Part 71) by 

establishing new Class E airspace at 

King Cove, AK. The intended effect of 

this proposal is to establish Class E 

airspace upward from 700 ft. above the 

surface, to contain Instrument Flight 

Rules (IFR) operations at King Cove, AK. 

The FAA Instrument Flight 

Procedures Production and 

Maintenance Branch has developed a 

new SIAP and Textual Departure 

Procedure for the King Cove Airport. 

The new approach is Area Navigation 

(Global Positioning System) (RNAV 

GPS) A, original. New Class E controlled 

airspace extending upward from 700 ft. 

above the surface within the King Cove, 

Alaska area would be created by this 

action. The proposed airspace is 

sufficient to contain aircraft executing 

the new instrument procedure for the 

King Cove Airport. 

The area would be depicted on 

aeronautical charts for pilot reference. 

The coordinates for this airspace docket 

are based on North American Datum 83. 

The Class E airspace areas designated as 

700/1200 foot transition areas are 

published in paragraph 6005 in FAA 

Order 7400.9L, Airspace Designations 

and Reporting Points, dated September 

2, 2003, and effective September 16, 

2003, which is incorporated by 

reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E 

airspace designations 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 Proposal 

This action proposes to amend Title 

14 Code of Federal Regulations, part 71 

(14 CFR part 71) by revising Class E 

airspace at Blanding, UT. New RNAV 

GPS SIAPs have been developed at 

Blanding Airport making it necessary to 

increase the area of controlled airspace. 

This additional Class E airspace 

extending upward from 1,200 feet above 

the surface of the earth is necessary for 

the safety of IFR aircraft executing these 

new SIAPs and transitioning to/from the 

en route environment. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9L, dated September 2, 

2003, and effective September 16, 2003, 

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. 

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 11013; 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.
