radials, and the Burlington, VT, VOR/ 

DME. This action removes the entire 

route. A low altitude RNAV route is 

being developed to replace V–151. 

V–496: V–496 currently extends 

between the Lebanon, NH, VOR/DME, 

and the Kennebunk, ME, VOR/DME. 

This action removes the entire route. 

V–542: V–542 currently extends 

between the Elmira, NY, VOR/DME, and 

the Lebanon, NH, VOR/DME. This 

action removes the route segments of V– 

542 that extend between the Rockdale, 

NY, VOR/DME, and the Lebanon, NH, 

VOR/DME. As amended, V–542 extends 

between Elmira, NY, and Rockdale, NY. 

The NAVAID radials in the 

description of V–141, below, are 

unchanged and are stated in True 

degrees.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

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. It, therefore: (1) Is not a 

‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under 

Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a 

‘‘significant rule’’ under Department of 

Transportation (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 only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, does not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action of amending VOR Federal 

airways V–141, and V–542, and 

revoking airways V–151 and V–496, due 

to the planned decommissioning of the 

Lebanon, NH, VOR/DME navigation aid, 

qualifies for categorical exclusion under 

the National Environmental Policy Act 

and its implementing regulations at 40 

CFR part 1500, and in accordance with 

FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures, 

paragraph 5–6.5a, which categorically 

excludes from further environmental 

impact review rulemaking actions that 

designate or modify classes of airspace 

areas, airways, routes, and reporting 

points (see 14 CFR part 71, Designation 

of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace 

Areas; Air Traffic Service Routes; and 

Reporting Points). As such, this action 

is not expected to cause any potentially 

significant environmental impacts. In 

accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, 

paragraph 5–2 regarding Extraordinary 

Circumstances, the FAA has reviewed 

this action for factors and circumstances 

in which a normally categorically 

excluded action may have a significant 

environmental impact requiring further 

analysis. The FAA has determined that 

no extraordinary circumstances exist 

that warrant preparation of an 

environmental assessment or 

environmental impact study.

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action amends the Class 

E airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Coffey County

the result of an airspace review caused 

by the decommissioning of the Boyd 

non-directional beacon (NDB) which 

provided navigation information to the 

instrument procedures at this airport. 

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, February 25, 

2021. The Director of the Federal 

Register approves this incorporation by 

reference action under Title 1 Code of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

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 


jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES
80596 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 240 / Monday, December 14, 2020 / Rules and Regulations 

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 the 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at Coffey 

County Airport, Burlington, KS, to 

support instrument flight rule 

operations at this airport. 

History 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking in the Federal 

Register (85 FR 53306; August 28, 2020) 

for Docket No. FAA–2020–0666 to 

amend the Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Coffey County Airport, Burlington, 

KS. 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 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020, 

and effective September 15, 2020, 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. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends FAA Order 

7400.11E, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated July 21, 2020, 

and effective September 15, 2020. FAA 

Order 7400.11E is publicly available as 

listed in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. FAA Order 7400.11E lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, 

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

The Rule 

This amendment to Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 

amends the Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

to within a 6.5-mile radius of Coffey 

County Airport, Burlington, KS; and 

removes the Boyd NDB and the 

associated extensions from the airspace 

legal description. 

This action is the result of an airspace 

review caused by the decommissioning 

of the Boyd NDB, which provided 

navigation information for the 

instrument procedures at this airport. 

FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, is 

published yearly and effective on 

September 15. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

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 only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, does not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 5–6.5.a. This airspace action 

is not expected to cause any potentially 

significant environmental impacts, and 

no extraordinary circumstances exist 

that warrant preparation of an 

environmental assessment.
