48430 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 156 / Thursday, August 13, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 

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 

modifies Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Chehalis-Centralia Airport, Chehalis, 

WA. A review of the airspace revealed 

that new Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures are necessary for the safety 

and management of IFR operations at 

the airport. Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

is modified to within a 4-mile radius of 

Chehalis-Centralia Airport, with a 

segment extending from the 4-mile 

radius to 8.1 miles north of the airport. 

This action enhances the safety and 

management of controlled airspace 

within the NAS. 

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, 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. 

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

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 

controlled airspace at Southwest 

Washington Regional Airport, Kelso, 

WA. 

History 

On May 27, 2015, the FAA published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to modify 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at Southwest 

Washington Regional Airport, Kelso, 

WA (80 FR 30183). 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 7400.9Y, 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.

Establishment of Class E Airspace, 

and Amendment of Class D and E 

Airspace; Ogden-Hinckley Airport, UT 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action establishes Class 

E airspace as an extension to the Class 

D surface area, modifies Class D 

airspace, and Class E airspace extending 

from 700 feet above the surface at 

Ogden-Hinckley Airport, Ogden, UT. 

The FAA’s review of the airspace area 

revealed that modification of controlled 

airspace enhances the safety and 

management of Standard Instrument 

Approach Procedures for Instrument 

Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the 

airport. This action updates the 

geographic coordinates of OgdenHinckley Airport and Hill AFB, Ogden, 

UT, and corrects an error in the 

regulatory text of the Class E airspace 

designated as an extension.
