Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 179 / Monday, September 18, 2023 / Rules and Regulations 63837 

History 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking for Docket No. 

FAA–2023–0583 in the Federal Register 

(88 FR 22385, April 13, 2023), 

proposing to modify Class E airspace at 

Alliance Municipal Airport, Alliance, 

NE. Interested parties were invited to 

participate in this rulemaking effort by 

submitting written comments on the 

proposal to the FAA. No comments 

were received. The FAA published a 

final rule for this docket in the Federal 

Register (88 FR 55553) on August 16, 

2023, with an effective date of October 

5, 2023. For administrative reasons, the 

FAA republishes this final rule with a 

delayed effective date of November 30, 

2023, and an amendment to the 

currently effective version of FAA Order 

JO 7400.11. 

Incorporation by Reference 

Class E5 airspace area is published in 

paragraph 6005 of FAA Order JO 

7400.11, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, which is incorporated 

by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 on an 

annual basis. This document amends 

the current version of that order, FAA 

Order JO 7400.11H, dated August 11, 

2023 and effective September 15, 2023. 

FAA Order JO 7400.11H is publicly 

available as listed in the ADDRESSES

section of this document. These 

amendments will be published in the 

next update to FAA Order JO 7400.11. 

FAA Order JO 7400.11H lists Class A, 

B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic 

service routes, and reporting points. 

The Rule 

This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by 

modifying Class E airspace beginning at 

700 feet above the surface at Alliance 

Municipal Airport, NE. Class E airspace 

beginning at 700 feet above the surface 

is expanded to a 7.6-mile radius to fully 

contain arriving IFR aircraft operating 

below 1,500 feet above the surface. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

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. It, therefore: (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. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 5–6.5.a. 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.

14 CFR Part 97 

[Docket No. 31505; Amdt. No. 4077] 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums 

and Obstacle Departure Procedures; 

Miscellaneous Amendments 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This rule establishes, amends, 

suspends, or removes Standard 

Instrument Approach Procedures 

(SIAPS) and associated Takeoff 

Minimums and Obstacle Departure 

procedures (ODPs) for operations at 

certain airports. These regulatory 

actions are needed because of the 

adoption of new or revised criteria, or 

because of changes occurring in the 

National Airspace System, such as the 

commissioning of new navigational 

facilities, adding 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 September 

18, 2023. The compliance date for each 

SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, 

and ODP 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 September 

18, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

This rule amends 14 CFR part 97 by 

establishing, amending, suspending, or 

removes SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums 

and/or ODPS. The complete regulatory 

description of each SIAP and its 

associated Takeoff Minimums or ODP 

for an identified airport is listed on FAA 

form documents which are incorporated 

by reference in this amendment under 5 

U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14 

CFR 97.20. The applicable FAA Forms 

8260–3, 8260–4, 8260–5, 8260–15A, 

8260–15B, when required by an entry 

on 8260–15A, and 8260–15C. 

The large number of SIAPs, Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs, their complex 

nature, and the need for a special format 

make publication in the Federal 

Register expensive and impractical. 

Further, airmen do not use the 

regulatory text of the SIAPs, Takeoff 

Minimums or ODPs, but instead refer to 

their graphic depiction on charts 

printed by publishers or aeronautical 

materials. Thus, the advantages of 

incorporation by reference are realized 

and publication of the complete 

description of each SIAP, Takeoff 

Minimums and ODP listed on FAA form 

documents is unnecessary. This 

amendment provides the affected CFR 

sections and specifies the typed of 

SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs 

with their applicable effective dates. 

This amendment also identifies the 

airport and its location, the procedure, 

and the amendment number. 

Availability and Summary of Material 

Incorporated by Reference 

The material incorporated by 

reference is publicly available as listed 

in the ADDRESSES section. 

The material incorporated by 

reference describes SIAPS, Takeoff 

Minimums and/or ODPs as identified in 

the amendatory language for part 97 of 

this final rule. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is 

effective upon publication of each 

separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and 

ODP as amended in the transmittal. 

Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and 

textual ODP amendments may have 

been issued previously by the FAA in a 

Flight Data Center (FDC) Notice to 

Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency 

action of immediate flights safety 

relating directly to published 

aeronautical charts. 

The circumstances that created the 

need for some SIAP and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODP amendments may 

require making them effective in less 

than 30 days. For the remaining SIAPs 

and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, an 

effective date at least 30 days after 

publication is provided. 

Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs contained in this 

amendment are based on the criteria 

contained in the U.S. Standard for 

Terminal Instrument Procedures 

(TERPS). In developing these SIAPs and 

Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the 

TERPS criteria were applied to the 

conditions existing or anticipated at the 

affected airports. Because of the close 

and immediate relationship between 

these SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and 

ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find 

that notice and public procedure under 

5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and 

contrary to the public interest and, 

where applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d), 

good cause exists for making some 

SIAPs effective in less than 30 days. 

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. It, therefore—(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. For the same 

reason, the FAA certifies that this 

amendment will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends 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 (NFDC)/Permanent Notice 

to Airmen (P–NOTAM), and is 

incorporated by reference under 5 

U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14 

CFR 97.20. 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 on FAA form 

documents is unnecessary. This 

amendment provides the affected CFR 

sections, and specifies the SIAPs and 

Takeoff Minimums and ODPs with their 

applicable effective dates. This 

amendment also identifies the airport 

and its location, the procedure and the 

amendment number. 

Availability and Summary of Material 

Incorporated by Reference 

The material incorporated by 

reference is publicly available as listed 

in the ADDRESSES section. 

The material incorporated by 

reference describes SIAPs, Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs as identified in 

the amendatory language for part 97 of 

this final rule. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is 

effective upon publication of each 

separate SIAP and Takeoff Minimums 

and ODP as amended in the transmittal. 

For safety and timeliness of change 

considerations, this amendment 

incorporates only specific changes 

contained for each SIAP and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODP as modified by 

FDC permanent NOTAMs. 

The SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums 

and ODPs, as modified by FDC 

permanent NOTAM, and contained in 

this amendment are based on criteria 

contained in the U.S. Standard for 

Terminal Instrument Procedures 

(TERPS). In developing these changes to 

SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and 

ODPs, 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 that created the 

need for these SIAP and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODP amendments 

require making them effective in less 

than 30 days. 

Because of the close and immediate 

relationship between these SIAPs, 

Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, and 

safety in air commerce, I find that notice 

and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 

553(b) are impracticable and contrary to 

the public interest and, where 

applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d), good
