Persons interested in being placed on

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 Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to 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 7-mile 

radius of Ennis-Big Sky Airport, Ennis, 

MT, along with a segment extending 

from 1,200 feet above the surface. 

Controlled airspace is necessary to 

accommodate aircraft using the new 

RNAV (GPS) standard instrument 

approach procedures at Ennis-Big Sky 

Airport, Ennis, MT. This action would 

enhance the safety and management of 

aircraft operations at the airport. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005, of FAA 

Order 7400.9W, dated August 8, 2012, 

and effective September 15, 2012, 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 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. 

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 proposed regulation is 

within the scope of that authority as it 

would establish controlled airspace at 

Ennis-Big Sky Airport, Ennis, MT. 

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The Native American Housing and 

Assistance and Self-Determination Act 

of 1996 (25 U.S.C. 4101 et seq.) 

(NAHASDA) changed the way that 

housing assistance is provided to Native 

Americans. NAHASDA eliminated 

several separate assistance programs 

and replaced them with a single block 

grant program, known as the Indian 

Housing Block Grant (IHBG) program. 

The regulations governing the IHBG 

formula allocation are codified in 

subpart D of part 1000 of HUD’s 

regulations in title 24 of the Code of 

Federal Regulations. In accordance with 

section 106 of NAHASDA, HUD 

developed the regulations with active 

tribal participation using the procedures 

of the Negotiated Rulemaking Act of 

1990 (5 U.S.C. 561–570). 

Under the IHBG program, HUD makes 

assistance available to eligible Indian 

tribes for affordable housing activities. 

The amount of assistance made 

available to each Indian tribe is 

determined using a formula that was 

developed as part of the NAHASDA 

negotiated process. Based on the 

amount of funding appropriated for the 

IHBG program, HUD calculates the 

annual grant for each Indian tribe and 

provides this information to the Indian 

tribes. An Indian Housing Plan for the 

Indian tribe is then submitted to HUD. 

If the Indian Housing Plan is found to 

be in compliance with statutory and 

regulatory requirements, the grant is 

made. 

On June 12, 2013 (78 FR 35178), HUD 

announced in the Federal Register the 

list of proposed members for the 

negotiated rulemaking committee, and 

requested additional public comment on 

the proposed membership. On July 30, 

2013 (78 FR 45903) after considering 

public comments, HUD published the 

final list of committee members and 

announced the date of the first 

negotiated rulemaking meeting. The first 

negotiated rulemaking meeting was 

schedule for August 27, 2013, and 

August 28, 2013, in Denver, Colorado. 

II. Second Committee Meeting 

The second meeting of the Indian 

Housing Block Grant Allocation 

Formula Negotiated Rulemaking 

Committee will be held on Tuesday, 

September 17, 2013, Wednesday, 

September 18, 2013, and Thursday, 

September 19, 2013. On each day, the 

session will begin at approximately 8:30 

a.m., and adjourn at approximately 5:00 

p.m. The meetings will take place at the 

Grand Hyatt Hotel, 1750 Welton Street, 

Denver, Colorado, 80202. 

The meeting will be open to the 

public without advance registration. 

Public attendance may be limited to the 

space available. Members of the public 

may make statements during the 

meeting, to the extent time permits, and 

file written statements with the 

committee for its consideration. Written 

statements should be submitted to the 

address listed in the FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT section of this 

document. 

III. Future Committee Meetings 

Decisions with respect to future 

meetings will be made at the first 

meeting and from time to time 

thereafter. Notices of all future meetings 

will be published in the Federal 

Register. HUD will make every effort to 

publish such notices at least 15 calendar 

days prior to each meeting.
