SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This amendment to 14 CFR 71 modifies the 
Class E airspace area extending upward from 700 feet above the surface 
of the earth at Lee C. Fine Memorial Airport, Kaiser/Lake Ozark, MO. 
The radius of the Class E airspace area extending upward from 700 feet 
above the surface of the earth is expanded from within a 6.5-mile 
radius to within a 7-mile radius of the airport, and the northeast 
extension from the Kaiser Nondirectional Beacon (NDB) is deleted. These 
modifications bring the legal description of the Lee C. Fine Memorial 
Airport, Kaiser/Lake Ozark, MO Class E airspace area into compliance 
with FAA Orders 7400.2F and 8260.19C. Class E airspace areas extending 
upward from 700 feet or more above the surface of the earth are 
published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9N, Airspace Designations 
and Reporting Points, dated September 1, 2005, and effective September 
16, 2005, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class 
E airspace designation listed in this document would be published 
subsequently in the Order.

The Direct Final Rule Procedure

    The FAA anticipates that this regulation will not result in adverse 
or negative comment and, therefore, is issuing it as a direct final 
rule. Previous actions of this nature have not been controversial and 
have not resulted in adverse comments or objections. Unless a written 
adverse or negative comment or a written notice of intent to submit an 
adverse or negative comment is received within the comment period, the 
regulation will become effective on the date specified above. After the 
close of the comment period, the FAA will publish a document in the 
Federal Register indicating that no adverse or negative comments were 
received and confirming the date on which the final rule will become 
effective. If the FAA does receive, within the comment period, an 
adverse or negative comment, or written notice of intent to submit such 
a comment, a document withdrawing the direct final rule will be 
published in the Federal Register, and a notice of proposed rulemaking 
may be published with a new comment period.

Comments Invited

    Interested parties are invited to participate in this rulemaking by 
submitting such written data, views, or arguments, as they may desire. 
Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the views and 
suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing reasoned 
regulatory decisions on the proposal. Comments are specifically invited 
on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic, environmental, and 
energy-related aspects of the proposal. Communications should identify 
both docket numbers and be submitted in

[[Page 44886]]

triplicate to the address listed above. Commenters wishing the FAA to 
acknowledge receipt of their comments on this notice must submit with 
those comments a self-addressed, stamped postcard on which the 
following statement is made: ``Comments to Docket No. FAA 2006-25008/
Airspace Docket No. 06-ACE-6.'' The postcard will be date/time stamped 
and returned to the commenter.

Agency Findings

    The regulations adopted herein will not have a substantial direct 
effect on the States, on the relationship between the national 
Government and the States, or on the distribution of power and 
responsibilities among the various levels of government. Therefore, it 
is determined that this final rule does not have federalism 
implications under Executive Order 13132.
    The FAA has determined that this regulation is noncontroversial and 
unlikely to result in adverse or negative comments. For the reasons 
discussed in the preamble, I certify that this regulation (1) is not a 
``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866; (2) is 
not a ``significant rule'' under Department of Transportation (DOT) 
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); 
and (3) if promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact, 
positive or negative, on a substantial number of small entities under 
the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    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 
since it contains aircraft executing instrument approach procedures to 
Lee C. Fine Memorial Airport, Kaiser/Lake Ozark, MO.
