Original Issue, Dated October 18, 2006, or 

Update No. 1, dated April 3, 2007. 

Optional Terminating Action 

(3) Replacing the HMU with an HMU that 

has been modified to TU157 terminates the 

repetitive requirement of paragraph (e)(2)(ii) 

of this AD. 

FAA AD Differences 

(f) This AD differs from the Mandatory 

Continuing Airworthiness Information 

(MCAI) because the MCAI applies to the 

ARRIEL 2B1 and 2B1A engines. The ARRIEL 

2B1A engine is not type certificated in the 

United States, so this proposed AD applies to 

the ARRIEL 2B1 engine model only. 

Other FAA AD Provisions 

(g) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs): The Manager, Engine Certification 

Office, FAA, has the authority to approve 

AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the 

procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19.

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 adding additional Class 

E airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface in the Corpus 

Christi, TX airspace area, adding 

controlled airspace for SIAPs at Aransas 

County Airport, Rockport, TX. The 

addition of the RNAV (GPS) RWY 18 

SIAP at Aransas County Airport has 

created the need to extend Class E 

airspace to the north of the current 

airspace. Controlled airspace is needed 

for the safety and management of IFR 

operations at the airport. 

Class E airspace areas are published 

in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 

7400.9T, dated August 27, 2009, and 

effective September 15, 2009, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E 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, 


emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with PROPOSALS
13454 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 54 / Monday, March 22, 2010 / Proposed Rules 

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 add 

additional controlled airspace in the 

Corpus Christi, TX area.

§ 71.1 [Amended] 

2. The incorporation by reference in 

14 CFR 71.1 of FAA Order 7400.9T,
