You may review the public docket containing the proposal, any comments received and any final disposition in person in the Dockets Office (see
**ADDRESSES** section for address and phone number) between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. An informal docket may also be examined during normal business hours at the office of the Central Service Center, 2601 Meacham Blvd., Fort Worth, TX 76137.

Persons interested in being placed on a mailing list for future NPRMs should contact the FAA’s Office of Rulemaking (202) 267–9677, to request a copy of Advisory Circular No. 11–2A, Notice of Proposed Rulemaking Distribution System, which describes the application procedure. The Proposal This action proposes to amend Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR), Part 71 by amending Class D airspace at McConnell AFB, Wichita, KS. The closing of Derby, Hamilton Field, KS, has made this action necessary. Accordingly, the segment of controlled airspace once reserved for use at Derby, Hamilton Field, would revert to Class D airspace for use at McConnell AFB, Wichita, KS.

Class D airspace areas are published in Paragraph 5000 of FAA Order 7400.9X, dated August 7, 2013 and effective September 15, 2013, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D airspace designation listed in this document would be published subsequently in the Order.

The FAA has determined that this proposed 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 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.

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 would amend controlled airspace at McConnell AFB, Wichita, KS.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  I. Background

In the Federal Register of March 3, 2014 (79 FR 11880), we published a proposed rule entitled ‘‘Food Labeling: Revision of the Nutrition and Supplement Facts Labels’’ with a 90-day comment period to request comments on amending our regulations for conventional foods and dietary supplements to provide updated nutrition information on the label to assist consumers in maintaining healthy dietary practices. Comments on the proposed rule will inform FDA’s rulemaking to amend the regulations for the Nutrition and Supplement Facts labels.

We received multiple requests for a 90-day extension of the comment period and one request for a 120-day extension of the comment period for the proposed rule. Each request conveyed concern that the original 90-day comment period does not allow sufficient time to develop a meaningful or thoughtful response to the proposed rule.

We have considered the requests and are extending the comment period for the proposed rule for 60 days, until August 1, 2014. We believe that a 60- day extension allows adequate time for interested persons to submit comments without significantly delaying rulemaking on these important issues. II. Request for Comments

Interested persons may submit either electronic comments regarding this document to http://www.regulations.gov or written comments to the Division of Dockets Management (see **ADDRESSES**). It is only necessary to send one set of comments. Received comments may be seen in the Division of Dockets Management between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, and will be posted to the docket at http:// www.regulations.gov.
