SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On June 1, 2007, the FAA published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

proposed rulemaking to establish Class 

E airspace at Hoquiam, WA, (72 FR 

30499). This action would improve the 

safety of IFR aircraft at Bowerman 

Airport, Hoquiam, WA. 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 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 

establishing Class E airspace at 

Hoquiam, WA. Additional controlled 

airspace is necessary to accommodate 

IFR aircraft at Bowerman Airport, 

Hoquiam, WA. 

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 will only affect air 

traffic procedures and air navigation, it 

is certified that 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Federal Register Document 07–3345, 

Docket No. FAA–2007–28022; 07–ASO–

7, published on July 11, 2007, (72 FR 

37629), establishes Class E5 airspace at 

Centreville, AL. The geographical 

coordinates for the airport have changed 

since the document was published. In 

the legal description for the Class E5 

airspace, the geographical coordinates, 

lat. 32°56′12′′ N, long. 87°05′20′′ W, have 

changed to lat. 32°56′13′′ N, long. 

87°05′26′′ W. This action corrects this 

error. Designations for Class E Airspace 

Areas Extending Upward from 700 feet 

or More Above the Surface of the Earth 

are published in 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. The Class E airspace designation 

listed in this document will be 

published subsequently in the Order. 

Need for Correction 

As published, the final rule contains 

an error in the legal description of the 

Class E5 airspace area. Accordingly, 

pursuant to the authority delegated to 

me, the legal description for the Class 

E5 airspace area at Centreville, AL, 

incorporated by reference at § 71.1, 14 

CFR 71.1, and published in the Federal

14 CFR Part 97 

[Docket No. 30566; Amdt. No. 3232] 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures; Miscellaneous 

Amendments 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This rule amends Standard 

Instrument Approach Procedures 

(SIAPs) for operations at certain 

airports. These regulatory actions are 

needed because of changes in the 

National Airspace System, such as the 

commissioning of new navigational 

facilities, adding of new obstacles, or 

changing air traffic requirements. These 

changes are designed to provide safe 

and efficient use of the navigable 

airspace and to promote safe flight 

operations under instrument flight rules 

at the affected airports. 

DATES: This rule is effective August 23, 

2007. The compliance date for each 

SIAP is specified in the amendatory 

provisions. 

The incorporation by reference of 

certain publications listed in the 

regulations is approved by the Director 

of the Federal Register as of August 23, 

2007.

amendment is as follows:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends Title 14, Code of Federal 

Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97) by 

amending the referenced SIAPs. The 

complete regulatory description of each 

SIAP is listed on the appropriate FAA 

Form 8260, as modified by the National 

Flight Data Center (FDC)/Permanent 

Notice to Airmen (P–NOTAM), and is 

incorporated by reference in the 

amendment under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 

CFR part 51, and § 97.20 of Title 14 of 

the Code of Federal Regulations. 

The large number of SIAPs, their 

complex nature, and the need for a 

special format make their verbatim 

publication in the Federal Register 

expensive and impractical. Further, 

airmen do not use the regulatory text of 

the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic 

depiction on charts printed by 

publishers of aeronautical materials. 

Thus, the advantages of incorporation 

by reference are realized and 

publication of the complete description 

of each SIAP contained in FAA form 

documents is unnecessary. This 

amendment provides the affected CFR 

sections and specifies the types of SIAP 

and the corresponding effective dates. 

This amendment also identifies the 

airport and its location, the procedure 

and the amendment number. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is 

effective upon publication of each 

separate SIAP as amended in the 

transmittal. For safety and timeliness of 

change considerations, this amendment 

incorporates only specific changes 

contained for each SIAP as modified by 

FDC/P–NOTAMs. 

The SIAPs, as modified by FDC P–

NOTAM, and contained in this 

amendment are based on the criteria 

contained in the U.S. Standard for 

Terminal Instrument Procedures 

(TERPS). In developing these changes to 

SIAPs, the TERPS criteria were applied 

only to specific conditions existing at 

the affected airports. All SIAP 

amendments in this rule have been 

previously issued by the FAA in a FDC 

NOTAM as an emergency action of 

immediate flight safety relating directly 

to published aeronautical charts. The 

circumstances which created the need 

for all these SIAP amendments requires 

making them effective in less than 30 

days. 

Because of the close and immediate 

relationship between these SIAPs and 

safety in air commerce, I find that notice 

and public procedure before adopting 

these SIAPs are impracticable and 

contrary to the public interest and, 

where applicable, that good cause exists 

for making these SIAPs effective in less 

than 30 days. 

Conclusion 

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
