Availability and Summary of 

Documents Proposed for Incorporation 

by Reference 

This document proposes to amend 

FAA Order 7400.9Y, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, 

dated August 6, 2014, and effective 

September 15, 2014. FAA Order 

7400.9Y is publicly available as listed in 

the ADDRESSES section of this proposed 

rule. FAA Order 7400.9Y lists Class A, 

B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic 

service routes, and reporting points. 

The Proposal 

This action proposes to amend Title 

14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 

CFR), Part 71 by establishing Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface within a 6.0-mile 

radius of Oceana County Airport, Hart/ 

Shelby, MI, to accommodate new 

standard instrument approach 

procedures. Controlled airspace is 

needed for the safety and management 

of IFR operations at the airport. 

Class E airspace areas are published 

in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 

7400.9Y, dated August 6, 2014, and 

effective September 15, 2014, 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 

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. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1E, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.

FAA found it necessary to increase the

Availability and Summary of 

Documents Proposed for Incorporation 

by Reference 

This document proposes to amend 

FAA Order 7400.9Y, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, 

dated August 6, 2014, and effective 

September 15, 2014. FAA Order 

7400.9Y is publicly available as listed in 

the ADDRESSES section of this proposed 

rule. FAA Order 7400.9Y lists Class A, 

B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic 

service routes, and reporting points. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations 

(14 CFR) Part 71 by modifying Class D 

airspace, Class E surface area airspace, 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface, and 

removing Class E surface area airspace 

as an extension as this airspace is no 

longer needed, at Mountain Home AFB, 

Mountain Home, ID. The FAA found 

additional Class D airspace necessary to 

protect instrument arrival procedures at 

the airport. Class D airspace would 

extend upward from the surface to and 

including 5,500 feet within a 5-mile 

radius northeast of Mountain Home 

AFB, extending to 6.5 miles to the 

southeast and northwest of the airport. 

Class E surface area airspace would 

extend upward from the surface within 

a 5-mile radius northeast of Mountain 

Home AFB, extending to 6.5 miles to the 

southeast and northwest of the airport. 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface would be 

modified to within a 7.7-mile radius 

northeast of Mountain Home AFB, 

extending to 12.4 miles to the northeast, 

and 17.7 miles to the east. This action 

would also update the geographic 

coordinates of Mountain Home 

Municipal Airport. 

Class D and Class E airspace 

designations are published in paragraph 

5000, 6002, 6004, and 6005, 

respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9Y, 

dated August 6, 2014, and effective 

September 15, 2014, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 


asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
44898 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 144 / Tuesday, July 28, 2015 / Proposed Rules 

71.1. The Class D and Class E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in the 

Order. 

The FAA has determined 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 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. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1E, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.
