Revocation of High Altitude Reporting 

Point; AK 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action removes the 

HERRY as an Alaskan high altitude 

reporting point. The FAA has 

determined that this reporting point 

should be removed from the National 

Airspace System (NAS), since the 

HERRY is no longer used as a high 

altitude reporting point. 

DATES: Effective Date: 0901 UTC, May 

10, 2007. The Director of Federal 

Register approves this incorporation by 

reference action under 1 CFR part 51, 

subject the annual revision of FAA 

Order 7400.9 and publication of 

conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

In October 2006, it was determined 

that the HERRY high altitude reporting 

point was no longer required to support 

the NAS and is no longer used by the 

FAA. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by 

revoking the HERRY high altitude 

reporting point. Accordingly, since this 

action only involves a change in the 

legal description, notice and public 

procedure under 5 U.S.C. 533(b) are 

unnecessary. 

Alaskan high altitude reporting points 

are published in paragraph 7005 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 high altitude reporting points 

listed in this document will be removed 

subsequently in the Order. 

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 Department of 

Transportation (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. 

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, paragraph 311(a), 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’. 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.

[Docket No. 30542; Amdt. No. 3211] 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures; Miscellaneous 

Amendments 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This amendment amends 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures (SIAPs) for operations at 

certain airports. These regulatory 

actions are needed because of changes 

occurring in the National Airspace 

System, such as the commissioning of 

new navigational facilities, addition of 

new obstacles, or changes in 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.
