Proposed Amendment of Class E 

Airspace; Baltimore, MD 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule; technical 

amendment. 

SUMMARY: This action amends Class D 

Airspace at Baltimore, MD, bringing 

current the regulatory text under the 

designation for Martin State Airport by 

adding the words ‘‘and Restricted Area 

R–4001C, which is continuously active 

up to 10,000 feet AGL’’. This is an 

administrative change to coincide with 

the FAA’s aeronautical database. 

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, June 25, 

2015. The Director of the Federal 

Register approves this incorporation by 

reference action under title 1, Code of 

Federal Regulations, part 51, subject to 

the annual revision of FAA Order 

7400.9 and publication of conforming 

amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

In a review of the airspace, the FAA 

found the airspace description for 

Martin State Airport, Baltimore, MD, 

Class D Airspace, in FAA Order 

7400.9Y, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, did not match the 

FAA’s charting information. This 

administrative change coincides with 

the FAA’s aeronautical database. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends FAA Order 

7400.9Y, airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2014, 

and effective September 15, 2014. FAA 

Order 7400.9Y is publicly available as 

listed in the ADDRESSES section of this 

final rule. FAA Order 7400.9Y lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, 

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by 

referencing Restricted Area R–4001C in 

the regulatory text of the Class D 

airspace area at Martin State Airport, 

MD, adding the words ‘‘and Restricted 

Area R–4001C, which is continuously 

active up to 10,000 feet AGL’’. This is 

an administrative change amending the 

description for Martin State Airport, 

Baltimore, MD, to be in concert with the 

FAAs aeronautical database, and does 

not affect the boundaries, or operating 

requirements of the airspace, therefore, 

notice and public procedure under 5 

U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary. 

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 further 

clarifies the description of controlled 

airspace at Martin State Airport, 

Baltimore, MD.

Adoption of the Amendment

within a 5.2-mile radius of Martin State 

Airport and within 4.4 miles each side of a 

14.7-mile radius arc of the Baltimore 

VORTAC extending clockwise from the 

Baltimore VORTAC 030° radial to the 

VORTAC 046° radial, excluding that airspace 

within the Washington Tri-Area Class B 

airspace area and Restricted Areas R–4001A 

and R–4001B when they are in effect, and 

Restricted Area R–4001C, which is 

continuously active up to 10,000 feet AGL. 

This Class D airspace area is effective during 

the specific dates and times established in

Amendment of Class E Airspace; 

Livingston, MT 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule, technical 

amendment. 

SUMMARY: This action amends the legal 

description of the Class E airspace area 

at Livingston, MT. The geographic 

coordinates of the airport are updated to 

coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical 

database as well as correcting a 

longitudinal point of the airspace 

boundary. This does not affect the 

charted boundaries or operating 

requirements of the airspace.

Register approves this incorporation by 

reference action under title 1, Code of

amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

The Aeronautical Information 

Services branch identified an error in a 

longitudinal coordinate in the legal 

description extending upward from 

1,200 feet above the surface, and the 

airport reference point (ARP) was not 

coincidental with the FAA’s 

aeronautical database. This action 

makes these corrections. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9Y dated August 6, 2014, 

and effective September 15, 2014, 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. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends FAA Order 

7400.9Y, airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2014, 

and effective September 15, 2014. FAA 

Order 7400.9Y is publicly available as 

listed in the ADDRESSES section of this 

final rule. FAA Order 7400.9Y lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, 

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

The Rule 

This amendment to Title 14, Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 

amends the legal description of the 

Class E airspace area extending upward 

from 700 feet above the surface at 

Livingston, MT. The geographic 

coordinates of the airport are updated to 

coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical 

database, and a longitudinal point of the 

airspace boundary extending from 1,200 

feet above the surface is corrected from 

‘‘long. 112°29′00′′W., to ‘‘long 

110°29′00′′W.’’. This does not affect the 

boundaries or operating requirements of 

the airspace. 

This is an administrative change and 

does not affect the boundaries, altitudes, 

or operating requirements of the 

airspace, therefore, notice and public 

procedure under 5 U.S. C. 553(b) is 

unnecessary. 

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, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. 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. 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the United States Code. 

Subtitle I, 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 

Class E airspace at Mission Field 

Airport, Livingston, MT.
