51920 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 169 / Tuesday, September 2, 2014 / Proposed Rules 

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 regulation is within the 

scope of that authority as it would 

establish controlled airspace at 

Cloverdale Municipal Airport, 

Cloverdale, CA. 

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.

Proposed Establishment of Class E 

Airspace, and Amendment of Class D 

and Class E Airspace; Prescott, AZ 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: This action proposes to 

establish Class E airspace and modify 

Class D and Class E airspace at Prescott, 

AZ, to accommodate aircraft departing 

and arriving under Instrument Flight 

Rules (IFR) at Ernest A. Love Field. New 

Area Navigation (RNAV) Global 

Positioning System (GPS) standard 

instrument approach procedures have 

made this action necessary for the safety 

and management of aircraft operations 

at the airport. The geographic 

coordinates of the airport also would be 

adjusted in the respective Class D and 

Class E airspace areas. This also would 

correct the airport name to Ernest A. 

Love Field. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before October 17, 2014. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments on this 

proposal to the U.S. Department of

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 169 / Tuesday, September 2, 2014 / Proposed Rules 51921 

Persons interested in being placed on 

a mailing list for future NPRM’s should 

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 designated as an extension to 

Class D surface area at Ernest A. Love 

Field, Prescott, Arizona. A segment of 

Class E airspace would extend from the 

6-mile radius of the airport to 11 miles 

southwest. Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

would be modified to within a 18.7-mile 

radius of the airport; the Class E 

airspace area extending upward from 

1,200 feet above the surface would be 

modified to within a 22-mile radius of 

the airport clockwise east to west, and 

within a 38-mile radius of the airport to 

the north. Controlled airspace is 

necessary to accommodate RNAV (GPS) 

standard instrument approach 

procedures at the airport and would 

enhance the safety and management of 

IFR operations. The geographic 

coordinates of the airport would be 

updated to coincide with the FAA’s 

aeronautical database for the respective 

Class D and Class E airspace areas. This 

action also would correct the airport 

name in Class D and Class E surface 

airspace descriptions from Prescott, 

Ernest A. Love Field to Ernest A. Love 

Field. 

Class D airspace and Class E airspace 

designations are published in 

paragraphs 5000, 6002, 6004 and 6005, 

respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9X, 

dated August 7, 2013, and effective 

September 15, 2013, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class D airspace and 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 regulation is within the 

scope of that authority as it would 

establish and modify controlled airspace 

at Ernest A. Love Field, Prescott, AZ. 

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.
