85568 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 249 / Tuesday, December 29, 2020 / Proposed Rules 

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 will only affect air 

traffic procedures and air navigation, it 

is certified that this 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. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1F, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.

Proposed Amendment of Class E 

Airspace; Kremmling, CO 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: This action proposes to 

modify the Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Mc Elroy Airfield Airport. 

Modification of this airspace area is 

necessary to properly contain 

instrument flight rules (IFR) aircraft 

departing and arriving at the airport. 

Additionally, this action proposes 

administrative updates to the airport’s 

name and geographic coordinates. This 

action would ensure the safety and 

management of IFR operations at the 

airport. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before February 12, 2021.

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 

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 would 

amend the Class E airspace at Mc Elroy 

Airfield Airport, Kremmling, CO, to 

support IFR operations at the airport. 

Comments Invited 

Interested parties are invited to 

participate in this proposed rulemaking 

by submitting such written data, views,

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document proposes to amend 

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 Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations 

Part 71 by modifying the Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Mc Elroy 

Airfield Airport, Kremmling, CO. This 

airspace is designed to contain IFR 

departures to 1,200 feet above the 

surface and IFR arrivals descending 

below 1,500 feet above the surface. The 

circular radius of the airport is larger 

than required and should be reduced 

from a 10.1-mile radius to a 4.6-mile 

radius of the airport. An area should 

also be added east of the airport to 

contain IFR aircraft departing toward/ 

over rising terrain and IFR aircraft 

arriving via the RNAV Runway 27 

approach. A second area should be 

added southwest of the airport to 

contain IFR aircraft arriving via the 

VOR/DME–A and the RNAV (GPS)–B 

approaches. A third area should be 

added west of the airport to contain IFR 

aircraft departing toward/over rising 

terrain. The airspace area would be 

described as follows: That airspace 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the surface within a 4.6-mile radius of 

the airport, and within 2 miles each side 

of the 103° bearing from the airport, 

extending from the 4.6-mile radius to 16 

miles east of the airport, and within 3.4 

miles north and 4.2 miles south of the 

239° bearing from the airport, extending 

from the 4.6-mile radius to 12.5 miles 

southwest of the airport, and within 1.8 

miles each side of the 283° bearing from 

the airport, extending from the 4.6-mile 

radius to 19 miles west of Mc Elroy 

Airfield Airport. 

This action also proposes 

administrative updates to the airport’s 

name and geographic coordinates. To 

match the FAA database, the airport’s 

name should be corrected by removing 

the city name ‘‘Kremmling’’ from the 

second line of the text header. To match 

the FAA database, the airport’s 

geographic coordinates should be 

updated to lat. 40°03′12′′ N, long. 

106°22′08′′ W. 

Class E5 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. 

FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, is 

published yearly and effective on 

September 15.

SUMMARY: The Manual on Uniform

Highways (MUTCD) is incorporated in 

FHWA regulations and recognized as 

the national standard for traffic control 

devices used on all public roads. FHWA 

recently published its NPA and placed

supplemental documents contained the 

same drafting error. By this notice 

FHWA is correcting that error and 

providing public notice of the revised 

documents.

www.federalregister.gov. 

Background 

FHWA published its NPA proposing 

changes to the MUTCD on December 14, 

2020, at 85 FR 80898. FHWA published 

several supplemental documents to the 

docket for this rulemaking to aid the 

public review of the proposals described 

in the NPA. Two of those documents, 

‘‘MUTCD 11ed NPA Text-Mark-up.pdf’’ 

and ‘‘MUTCD 11ed NPA TextClean.pdf,’’ contained a drafting error 

which suggests that FHWA is making a 

change to the text that was neither 

intended nor described in the NPA 

document. The phrase ‘‘shall not’’ was 

inadvertently included in a proposed 

editorial deletion in the Standard 

statement of proposed Section 9A.01. 

This error has been corrected and 

FHWA has placed the updated version 

of MUTCD Proposed Text.pdf to the 

docket.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

October 13, 2020, issue of the Federal 

Register (85 FR 64434), the Corps 

published a proposed rule for 

establishing a permanent restricted area 

in the Washington Channel adjacent to 

Fort McNair. Fort McNair is the 

headquarters of the Army’s Military 

District of Washington and home of the 

National Defense University as well as 

the official residence of the U.S. Army’s 

Vice Chief of Staff. Fort McNair 

requested a restricted area to fulfill Joint 

Base Myer-Henderson Hall (JBM–HH) 

security needs including Marine 

Helicopter Squadron (HMX) missions 

and protection of VIP quarters at Fort 

McNair. 

We have received requests for an 

extension of the comment period for the 

proposed rule. The Corps finds that a 

30-day extension of the comment period 

for this proposed rule is warranted. 

Therefore, the comment period for this 

proposed rule is extended until January 

28, 2021.
