Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Direct final rule; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: This action amends Title 14 

Code of Federal Regulations, part 71 (14 

CFR 71) by modifying Class E airspace 

at Fort Scott Municipal Airport, KS. 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures have been developed for 

Fort Scott Municipal Airport, KS. 

Additional controlled airspace 

extending upward from the surface and 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

of the earth is needed to contain aircraft 

executing these approaches. This action 

increases the area of the existing 

controlled airspace for Fort Scott 

Municipal Airport, KS. 

DATES: This direct final rule is effective 

on 0901 UTC, December 20, 2007. 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. Comments for inclusion 

in the Rules Docket must be received on

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

amendment to 14 CFR 71 modifies the 

Class E airspace area at Fort Scott 

Municipal Airport, KS. The radius of 

the Class E airspace area extending 

upward from 700 feet or more above the 

surface of the earth is expanded from 

within a 6.4-mile radius to within a 7- 

mile radius of the airport. This 

modification brings the legal description 

of the Fort Scott Municipal Airport, KS 

Class E5 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 7400.9P, Airspace Designations 

and Reporting Points, dated September 

1, 2006, and effective September 15, 

2006, which is incorporated by 

reference in 14 CFR 71.1. of the same 

order. The Class E airspace designations 

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 


yshivers on PROD1PC62 with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 154 / Friday, August 10, 2007 / Rules and Regulations 44955 

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 

triplicate to the address listed above. 

Commenter’s 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–2006–28771/Airspace 

Docket No. 07–ACE–8.’’ 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 non-controversial 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 Fort 

Scott Municipal Airport, KS.

Establishment of Class E Airspace; 

Beaver, UT 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action will establish 

Class E airspace at Beaver, UT. 

Additional Class E airspace is necessary 

to accommodate aircraft using a new 

Area Navigation (RNAV) Global 

Positioning System (GPS) Instrument 

Approach Procedure (SIAP) at Beaver 

Municipal Airport. This will improve 

the safety of Instrument Flight Rules 

(IFR) aircraft executing the new RNAV 

GPS IAP at Beaver Municipal Airport, 

Beaver, UT.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On February 23, 2007, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking to 

establish Class E airspace at Beaver, UT, 

(72 FR 8136). This action would 

improve the safety of IFR aircraft 

executing this new RNAV GPS approach 

procedure at Beaver Municipal Airport, 

Beaver, UT. 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 7400.9P, dated September 1, 

2006, and effective September 15, 2006, 

which 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 Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by 

establishing Class E airspace at Beaver, 

UT. Additional controlled airspace is 

necessary to accommodate IFR aircraft 

executing the new RNAV (GPS) 

approach procedure at Beaver 

Municipal Airport, Beaver, UT. 

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
