Adoption of the Amendment 

Accordingly, under the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator,

removing Airworthiness Directive (AD) 

2013–11–05, Amendment 39–17465 (78 

FR 33204, June 4, 2013), and adding the 

following new AD:

Establishment of Class E Airspace; 

Mineral Point, WI 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action establishes Class 

E airspace at Mineral Point, WI. A Class 

E surface area is necessary to 

accommodate increased business 

aviation and flight instruction activity at 

Iowa County Airport. The FAA is taking 

this action to enhance the safety and 

management of Instrument Flight Rule 

(IFR) operations for SIAPs at the airport. 

Geographic coordinates of the existing 

Class E airspace are also updated. 

DATES: Effective date: 0901 UTC, July 

24, 2014. 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.

32862 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 110 / Monday, June 9, 2014 / Rules and Regulations 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On March 3, 2014, the FAA published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to 

establish Class E airspace for the 

Mineral Point, WI, area, creating 

additional controlled airspace at Iowa 

County Airport (79 FR 11732) Docket 

No. FAA–2013–0914. 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 6002 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 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 

establishing Class E airspace designated 

as a surface area within a 4.1-mile 

radius of Iowa County Airport, Mineral 

Point, WI. Increases in business 

aviation, air cargo, and flight instruction 

operations under instrument 

meteorological conditions have made 

this addition of controlled airspace 

necessary for the safety and 

management of IFR operations at the 

airport. Geographic coordinates of the 

airport in Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

are also adjusted to coincide with the 

FAA’s aeronautical 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. 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 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. 

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. 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 establishes 

controlled airspace at Iowa County 

Airport, Mineral Point, WI. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1E, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 311a. 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.
