**Amendment of Class D and Class E Airspace, and Establishment of Class**  **E Airspace; Bozeman, MT**

**AGENCY :**  Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

**ACTION :**  Final rule.

**SUMMARY :**  This action modifies Class D and Class E airspace at Bozeman, Gallatin Field Airport, Bozeman, MT, to accommodate aircraft using Instrument Landing System (ILS) Localizer (LOC) standard instrument approach procedures at Bozeman, Gallatin Field Airport. This action also establishes Class E En Route Domestic airspace to facilitate vectoring of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the airport. This action, initiated by the biennial review of the Bozeman airspace area, enhances the safety and management of aircraft operations at the airport.

**DATES :**  Effective date, 0901 UTC, May 31, 2012. 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.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  History

On November 16, 2011, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice of proposed rulemaking to amend and establish controlled airspace at Bozeman, MT (76 FR 70919). 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 D and Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 5000, 6005 and 6006, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9V dated August 9, 2011, and effective September 15, 2011, 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 that Order.

The Rule

This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by modifying Class D airspace, and Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Bozeman, Gallatin Field Airport, Bozeman, MT. Additional controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate aircraft using the ILS LOC standard instrument approach procedures at the airport. Also, this action establishes Class E En Route Domestic airspace extending upward from 1,200 feet above the surface to allow vectoring IFR aircraft from En Route airspace to the airport.

The FAA has determined 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 will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified this rule, when promulgated, will 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 discusses 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 creates additional controlled airspace at Bozeman, Gallatin Field Airport, Bozeman, MT. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71

On April 28, 2011, the FAA published a final rule in the Federal Register

, Docket No. FAA–2011–0010, Airspace Docket No. 11–AAL–1, that amended Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations part 71 by amending all Federal airways affected by the relocation of the Anchorage VOR navigation aid, (76 FR 23687). Subsequent to that rule, the FAA published in the Federal Register of June 16, 2011, a rule delaying the effective date (76 FR 35097), and then published in the Federal Register of December 9, 2011, a rule announcing the new effective date (76 FR 76891). In that rule, the route description for V– 388 was published in an east to west direction in error. The correct direction for the route description for V–388 is
west to east.

Amendment to Final Rule

Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the legal descriptions for V–388 for Airspace Docket No. FAA–2011–0010, Airspace Docket No. 11–AAL–1, as published in the Federal Register on April 28, 2011 (76 FR 23687), is corrected as follows:

■ On page 23688, column 2, lines 10 and 11, amend the V–388 description to read:

**§ 71.1 [Amended]**
* * * * *

‘‘From Kenai, AK; INT Kenai 067 ° and Anchorage, AK, 208 ° radials; to Anchorage.’’ instead of ‘‘From Anchorage, AK, to INT Anchorage
208 ° and Kenai, AK, 067 ° Kenai, AK.’’

**AGENCY :**  Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

**ACTION :**  Final rule.

**SUMMARY :**  This action amends Class E airspace at City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport, Colorado Springs, CO.

Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6003, of FAA Order 7400.9V dated August 9, 2011, and effective September 15, 2011, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in that Order.

The Rule

This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by amending Class E airspace designated as an extension to Class C airspace area for the City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport, Colorado Springs, CO. Airspace reconfiguration is necessary due to the decommissioning of the Black Forest TACAN. Also, the geographic coordinates of the airport will be updated to coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical database. This action is necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations.

The FAA has determined 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.
