tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
52112 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 163 / Thursday, August 22, 2013 / Proposed Rules 

The Proposal 

The FAA is considering an 

amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal 

Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to establish 

Class E airspace at Aliceville, AL, 

providing the controlled airspace 

required to support the new RNAV 

(GPS) standard instrument approach 

procedures for George Downer Airport. 

Controlled airspace extending upward 

from 700 feet above the surface is 

required for IFR operations within a 7- 

mile radius of 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 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 

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 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 proposed 

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 proposed regulation is 

within the scope of that authority as it 

would establish Class E airspace at 

George Downer Airport, Aliceville, AL. 

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.

SUMMARY: This action proposes to 

modify Class E airspace at Cut Bank

Controlled airspace is necessary to 

accommodate aircraft using new Area 

Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning 

System (GPS) standard instrument 

approach procedures at the airport. The 

geographic coordinates of the airport 

would be adjusted in the respective 

Class E airspace areas. The FAA is 

proposing this action to enhance the 

safety and management of aircraft 

operations at the airport.
