Amendment of Class E Airspace; 

Hampton, IA 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action amends Class E 

airspace at Hampton, IA. 

Decommissioning of the Hampton nondirectional beacon (NDB) at Hampton 

Municipal Airport has made 

reconfiguration necessary for standard 

instrument approach procedures and for 

the safety and management of 

Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) operations 

at the airport. 

DATES: Effective date: 0901 UTC, May 

29, 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On August 12, 2013, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

to amend Class E airspace for the 

Hampton, IA, area, creating additional 

controlled airspace at Hampton 

Municipal Airport (78 FR 48840) Docket 

No. FAA–2013–0585. 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 6005 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 

amending Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

to for standard instrument approach 

procedures at Hampton Municipal 

Airport, Hampton, IA. Airspace 

reconfiguration to within a 6.4-mile 

radius of the airport, with a segment 

extending from the 6.4-mile radius to 

7.7 miles south of the airport is 

necessary due to the decommissioning 

of the Hampton NDB and the 

cancellation of the NDB approach. 

Controlled airspace is necessary for the 

safety and management of IFR 

operations at the airport. 

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 amends 

controlled airspace at Hampton 

Municipal Airport, Hampton, IA. 

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.

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

to amend Class E airspace for the Philip, 

SD, area, creating additional controlled 

airspace at Philip Airport (78 FR 73751) 

Docket No. FAA–2013–0916. 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 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9X

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 

amending Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Philip Airport, Philip, SD, to contain 

aircraft executing new standard 

instrument approach procedures at the 

airport. Accordingly, additional 

segments will extend from the 6.4-mile 

radius of the airport to 11.8 miles 

northwest and 11.5 miles southeast of 

the airport, to retain the safety and 

management of IFR aircraft in Class E 

airspace to/from the en route 

environment. Geographic coordinates 

will also be updated 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’’
