14 CFR Part 71 

[Docket No. FAA–2014–0279; Airspace 

Docket No. 14–ANM–3] 

Proposed Modification of Class D and 

Class E Airspace; Pasco, WA 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: This action proposes to 

modify the Class D and Class E airspace 

at Tri-Cities Airport, Pasco, WA. 

Controlled airspace is necessary to 

accommodate the new Area Navigation 

(RNAV) Global Positioning System 

(GPS) standard instrument approach 

procedures at the airport. This action, 

initiated by the biennial review of the 

Pasco WA, airspace area, would 

enhance the safety and management of 

IFR operations at the airport. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before August 18, 2014. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments on this 

proposal to the U.S. Department of 

Transportation, Docket Operations, M–

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 modifying Class D 

airspace, Class E surface airspace and 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at the TriCities Airport, Pasco, WA. After a 

biennial review of the airspace, the FAA 

found modification of the airspace 

necessary for the safety and 

management of aircraft departing and 

arriving under IFR operations at the 

airport. The Class D airspace area would 

be expanded from the existing 4.3 miles 

to 4.8 miles, west of the airport, from 

the 255° radial to the 12° radial and two 

segments extending 5.8 miles southwest 

and northeast of the airport would be 

added. The cutout of the Class D 

airspace for Vista Airport would be 

eliminated, as Vista Airport is closed. 

The Class E surface airspace would be 

adjusted to coincide with the 

dimensions of the Class D airspace. The 

Class E airspace designated as an 

extension to the Class D and Class E 

surface area would be removed as they 

are no longer needed for IFR operations. 

The Class E airspace extending 700 feet 

above the surface would be decreased to 

an 11 mile radius of the airport with 

segments extending from the 11 mile 

radius to 13 miles northeast and 

southeast of the airport and a segment 

4 miles south and 9 miles north of a 226 

degree bearing from the airport 

extending to 15 miles southwest of the 

airport. These actions are necessary to 

accommodate RNAV (GPS) standard 

instrument approach procedures and for 

the safety and management of IFR 

operations at the airport. 

Class D airspace and Class E airspace 

designations are published in paragraph 

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 and Class E 

airspace designations 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) 


ehiers on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
37968 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 128 / Thursday, July 3, 2014 / Proposed Rules 

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 

modify controlled airspace at Central 

Airport, Pasco, WA. 

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.

Commission. 

ACTION: Announcement of meeting and 

request for comments. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Consumer Product 

Safety Commission (CPSC, Commission, 

or we) staff is holding a workshop on 

aspects of the Commission’s proposed 

rule on Certificates of Compliance 

(certificates), which the Commission 

published on May 13, 2013. Among 

other things, the Commission proposed

together. The workshop will focus on 

this aspect of the proposed rule. We 

invite interested parties to participate 

in, or attend the workshop, and to 

submit written comments. 

DATES: The workshop will be held from 

9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday, September 

18, 2014. Individuals interested in 

presenting information and 

participating on a panel at the workshop 

should register by Friday, August 8, 

2014; all other individuals who wish to 

attend the workshop should register by
