Persons interested in being placed on

contact the FAA’s Office of Rulemaking, 

(202) 267–9677, for a copy of Advisory 

Circular No. 11–2A, Notice of Proposed 

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 E 

airspace at Prineville Airport, Prineville, 

OR. Additional controlled airspace 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the surface within the 6.9-mile radius of 

the airport, with segments extending 

west and southeast is necessary to 

accommodate aircraft using RNAV 

(GPS) standard instrument approach 

procedures at Prineville Airport, 

Prineville, OR. This action would 

enhance the safety and management of 

aircraft operations at the airport. Also, 

the geographic coordinates of the airport 

would be updated to coincide with the 

FAA’s aeronautical database. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005, of FAA 

Order 7400.9W, dated August 8, 2012, 

and effective September 15, 2012, which 


ehiers on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS-1
52718 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 165 / Monday, August 26, 2013 / Proposed Rules 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designation 

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) 

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 Prineville 

Airport, Prineville, OR. 

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.

management of Instrument Flight Rules 

(IFR) operations for standard instrument 

approach procedures at the airport.
