[Docket No. FAA–2016–4234; Airspace 

Docket No. 16–ACE–3] 

Amendment of Class E Airspace for 

the Following Kansas Towns; 

Belleville, KS; Johnson, KS; 

Marysville, KS; Pittsburg, KS; and 

Washington, KS 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action modifies Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Belleville 

Municipal Airport, Belleville, KS; 

Stanton County Municipal Airport, 

Johnson, KS; Marysville Municipal 

Airport, Marysville, KS; Atkinson 

Municipal Airport, Pittsburg, KS; and 

Washington County Veteran’s Memorial 

Airport, Washington, KS. 

Decommissioning of non-directional 

radio beacons (NDBs), cancellation of 

NDB approaches, and implementation 

of area navigation (RNAV) procedures

Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations 

at the above airports. This action also 

updates the geographic coordinates at 

Marysville Municipal Airport, 

Marysville, KS; and Atkinson Municipal 

Airport, Pittsburg, KS; and the name of 

Washington County Veteran’s Memorial 

Airport (formerly Washington County 

Memorial Airport) to coincide with the 

FAAs aeronautical database. 

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, November 

10, 2016. The Director of the Federal 

Register approves this incorporation by 

reference action under Title 1, Code of

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 


asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 127 / Friday, July 1, 2016 / Rules and Regulations 43039 

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 Belleville Municipal 

Airport, Belleville, KS; Stanton County 

Municipal Airport, Johnson, KS; 

Marysville Municipal Airport, 

Marysville, KS; Atkinson Municipal 

Airport, Pittsburg, KS; and Washington 

County Veteran’s Memorial Airport, 

Washington, KS. 

History 

On March 29, 2016, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

to modify Class E airspace at Belleville 

Municipal Airport, Belleville, KS; 

Stanton County Municipal Airport, 

Johnson, KS; Marysville Municipal 

Airport, Marysville, KS; Atkinson 

Municipal Airport, Pittsburg, KS; and 

Washington County Veteran’s Memorial 

Airport, Washington, KS (81 FR 17420) 

Docket No. FAA–2016–4234. Interested 

parties were invited to participate in 

this rulemaking effort by submitting 

written comments on the proposal to the 

FAA. No comments were received. 

Subsequent to publication, the FAA 

found an editorial error in the legal 

description for Marysville, KS; and the 

name of the town in the airspace 

designation and legal description for 

Atkinson Municipal Airport. These 

errors are corrected in this rule. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9Z, dated August 6, 2015, 

and effective September 15, 2015, 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 

7400.9Z, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2015, 

and effective September 15, 2015. FAA 

Order 7400.9Z is publicly available as 

listed in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. FAA Order 7400.9Z 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 

by removing the approach extensions at 

Belleville Municipal Airport, Belleville, 

KS; Stanton County Municipal Airport, 

Johnson, KS; Marysville Municipal 

Airport, Marysville, KS; and Atkinson 

Municipal Airport, Pittsburg, KS, due to 

decommissioning of NDBs, removal of 

NDB approaches, and the 

implementation of RNAV standard 

instrument approach procedures at the 

airports. Also, controlled airspace at 

Washington County Veteran’s Memorial 

Airport is reduced from a 7.3-mile 

radius to a 6.3-mile radius of the airport. 

This action also updates the geographic 

coordinates of Marysville Municipal 

Airport, Marysville, KS, and Atkinson 

Municipal Airport, Pittsburg, KS, as 

well as noting the correct town for 

Atkinson Municipal Airport. 

Additionally, this action notes the name 

of Washington County Veteran’s 

Memorial Airport (formerly Washington 

County Memorial Airport) to coincide 

with the FAAs aeronautical database. 

This rule is necessary for the safety and 

management of IFR operations under 

standard instrument approach 

procedures at the above airports. 

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 1050.1F, ‘‘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.

[Docket No: NASA–2015–0010] 

RIN 2700–AD98 

Space Flight 

AGENCY: National Aeronautics and 

Space Administration. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The National Aeronautics and 

Space Administration (NASA) is issuing 

a final rule for its regulations that 

govern International Space Station 

crewmembers, mementos aboard Orion 

and Space Launch System (SLS) 

missions, and the authority of the NASA 

Commander, and removes the Agency’s 

policy on space flight participation and 

other policies that were relevant to the 

Space Shuttle. The revision to this rule 

is part of NASA’s retrospective plan 

under Executive Order (EO) 13563 

completed in August 2011. NASA’s full 

plan can be accessed on the Agency’s 

open Government Web site at http://

www.nasa.gov/open/. 

DATES: Effective: August 1, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

NASA published a proposed rule in 

the Federal Register at 80 FR 63474 on 

October 20, 2015, to amend its 

regulations that govern International 

Space Station crewmembers, mementos 

aboard Orion and Space Launch System 

(SLS) missions, and the authority of the 

NASA Commander and removes the 

Agency’s policy on space flight 

participation and other policies that 

were relevant to the Space Shuttle. The 

Space Shuttle Program formally 

commenced in 1972. After a total of 135 

flights, the last of which occurred in 

July 2011, the Space Shuttle was 

officially retired after 30 years of 

operation. During this period, the fleet 

and its crews carried out a large and 

varied number of tasks to meet the goals 

and objectives of the Nation’s space 

program. These included the launch of 

large interplanetary probes, the 

performance of scientific experiments 

under microgravity conditions, the onorbit servicing of the Hubble Space 

Telescope, and the assembly and 

resupply of the International Space 

Station. Functions previously performed 

by the Space Shuttle will now be done 

by many different spacecraft currently 

flying or in development, including 

vehicles owned by both the Government 

and the private sector. 

NASA is currently developing a new 

human-rated spacecraft, the Orion, and 

launch system, the Space Launch 

System (SLS). The Orion and SLS are 

designed to conduct journeys into deep 

space. With the end of the Space Shuttle 

Program, many sections of this rule are 

no longer relevant and will be deleted. 

However, sections which have current 

or future application will be maintained 

and updated or amended as required. 

Significant elements of part 1214, in 

its current form, govern the use and 

operation of the Space Shuttle and cover 

a diverse number of areas including 

requirements for reimbursement for 

Space Shuttle services to civil U.S. 

Government and foreign users, the flight 

of Payload Specialists and Space Flight 

Participants on Space Shuttle missions, 

reimbursement terms, and conditions 

for use of the Spacelab Module. Also 

covered in part 1214 are the rules for the 

NASA Astronaut Candidate Recruitment 

and Selection Program, the Code of 

Conduct for the International Space 

Station Crew, and the Authority of the 

Space Shuttle Commander. 

The intent of these amendments is to 

repeal those portions of the regulation 

that, with the ending of the Space 

Shuttle Program, are no longer relevant. 

Sections that remain in effect will be 

amended because they are outdated. 

Other sections that are applicable to the 

Orion and SLS will also be amended. 

Provisions currently in force relating to 

approving mementoes for flight and 

preventing the use of mementoes for 

economic gain remain relevant and were 

incorrectly omitted from the proposed 

rule published on October 20, 2015. 

These provisions have been 

reincorporated in the final rule at 14 

CFR 1214.601 and 1214.602, except for 

language relating to dimensions and 

areas specific to the Space Shuttle 

which have not been retained. 

Discussion and Analysis 

There were two public comments 

received in response to the proposed 

rule. Comments were supportive in 

nature and do not warrant any changes 

in the rule’s language. 

Statutory Authority 

Section 1214 is established under the 

National Aeronautics and Space Act 

(Space Act) (51 U.S.C. 20101, et seq.). 

Regulatory Analysis 

Executive Order 12866, Regulatory 

Planning and Review and Executive 

Order 13563, Improving Regulation and 

Regulation Review 

Executive Orders 13563 and 12866 

direct agencies to assess all costs and 

benefits of available regulatory 

alternatives and, if regulation is 

necessary, to select regulatory 

approaches that maximize net benefits 

(including potential economic, 

environmental, public health and safety 

effects, distributive impacts, and 

equity). Executive Order 13563 

emphasizes the importance of 

quantifying both costs and benefits, 

reducing costs, harmonizing rules, and 

promoting flexibility. This rule has been 

designated as ‘‘not significant’’ under 

section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866. 

Review Under the Regulatory Flexibility 

Act 

The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 

U.S.C. 601 et seq.) requires an agency to 

prepare an initial regulatory flexibility 

analysis to be published at the time the 

rule is published. This requirement does 

not apply if the agency ‘‘certifies that 

the rule will not, if promulgated, have 

a significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities’’ (5 

U.S.C. 603). This rule updates these 

sections of the CFR to align with Federal 

guidelines and does not have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities. 

Review Under the Paperwork Reduction 

Act 

This final rule does not contain any 

information collection requirements 

subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act 

of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). 

Review Under Executive Order of 13132 

Executive Order 13132, ‘‘Federalism,’’ 

64 FR 43255 (August 4, 1999) requires 

regulations be reviewed for Federalism 

effects on the institutional interest of 

states and local governments, and if the 

effects are sufficiently substantial, 

preparation of the Federal assessment is 

required to assist senior policy makers. 

The amendments will not have any 

substantial direct effects on state and 

local governments within the meaning 

of the Executive Order. Therefore, no 

Federalism assessment is required.
