### 28244 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 93 / Monday, May 14, 2012 / Rules and Regulations

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  History

Federal Register Docket No. FAA– 2012–0099, Airspace Docket No. 12– ASO–11, published on April 11, 2012 (77 FR 21662), amends Class D airspace at Cape Canaveral Skid Strip, Cocoa Beach, FL. A typographical error was made in the regulatory text, stating the radius of controlled airspace at Cape Canaveral Skid Strip to be 4.4 miles, instead of 4.5 miles. This action corrects this error. Class D airspace designations are published in paragraph 5000 of FAA Order 74009.V, dated August 9, 2011, and effective September 15, 2011, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D airspace designation listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order.

Correction to Final Rule

Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the radius of the controlled Class D airspace area for Cape Canaveral Skid Strip, Cocoa Beach, FL, as published in the Federal Register of April 11, 2012 (77 FR 21662) (FR Doc. 2012–8558) is corrected as follows:

ASO FL D Cocoa Beach, FL [Corrected] Cape Canaveral Skid Strip, FL

On page 21663, column 3, line 4 of the legal description, remove ‘‘within a 4.4-mile radius of the Cape Canaveral Skid Strip, and insert ‘‘within a 4.5-mile radius of the Cape Canaveral Skid Strip.’’

**AGENCY :**  Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

**ACTION :**  Final rule; technical amendment.

**SUMMARY :**  This action amends Class D and E airspace at Martin State Airport, Baltimore, MD. The geographic coordinates of the Baltimore VORTAC are being adjusted to coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical database, which show the correct coordinates. This does not affect the boundaries or operating requirements of the airspace.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  History

The FAA is adjusting the geographic location of Baltimore VORTAC, Baltimore, MD, to be in concert with the FAAs aeronautical database, which shows the correct coordinates. This is an administrative change and does not affect the boundaries or operating requirements of the airspace; therefore, notice and public procedures under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary.

The Class D and E airspace designations are published in Paragraphs 5000, 6002 and 6004 of FAA order 7400.9V, dated August 9, 2011, and effective September 15, 2011, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and E airspace designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order.

The Rule

This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 amends the geographic coordinates in the legal description of Class D airspace and Class E surface airspace, for Martin State Airport, Baltimore, MD. This update brings the geographic coordinates in concert with the FAA’s Aeronautical Products database.

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 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 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 prescribing regulations to assign the use of airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority as it amends controlled airspace at Martin State Airport, Baltimore, MD. Lists of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71

**Amendment of Class E Airspace; Omaha, NE** 

**AGENCY :**  Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

**ACTION :**  Final rule.

**SUMMARY :**  This action amends Class E airspace at Omaha, NE. Additional controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate new Area Navigation (RNAV) Standard Instrument Approach Procedures at Eppley Airfield. The FAA is taking this action to enhance the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) operations at the airport.

**DATES :**  Effective date: 0901 UTC, July 26, 2012. The Director of the Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under 1 CFR part 51, subject to the annual revision of FAA Order 7400.9 and publication of conforming amendments. **FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  Scott Enander, Central Service Center, Operations Support Group, Federal Aviation Administration, Southwest Region, 2601 Meacham Blvd., Fort Worth, TX 76137; telephone (817) 321–

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  History

On December 13, 2011, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend Class E airspace for the Omaha, NE, area, creating additional controlled airspace at Eppley Airfield (76 FR 77448) Docket No. FAA–2011– 1126. 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 7400.9V dated August 9, 2011, and effective September 15, 2011, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order.

The Rule

This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by amending Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface to accommodate new standard instrument approach procedures at Eppley Airfield, Omaha, NE. This action is necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations at the airport.

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. Therefore, this 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 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 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 of the FAA Administrator.
