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 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 5–6.5a. 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.

Amendment of Class E Airspace; 

Lansing, MI 

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 Capital Region 

International Airport, Lansing, MI. This 

action is the result of an airspace review 

due to the decommissioning of the 

Lansing VHF omnidirectional range 

(VOR) navigation aid as part of the VOR 

Minimum Operational Network (MON) 

Program. The geographic coordinates 

and name of the airport are also updated 

to coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical 

database. An editorial change is also 

made to the airspace legal designation 

by removing the city from the airport 

name. 

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, November 8, 

2018. The Director of the Federal 

Register approves this incorporation by 

reference action under Title 1 Code of 

Federal Regulations part 51, subject to 

the annual revision of FAA Order 

7400.11 and publication of conforming 

amendments.

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 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at Capital 

Region International Airport, Lansing, 

MI, to support instrument flight rule 

operations. 

History 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking in the Federal 

Register (83 FR 16802; April 17, 2018) 

for Docket No. FAA–2018–0101 to 

amend Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Capital Region International Airport, 

Lansing, MI. 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 7400.11B, dated August 3, 2017, 

and effective September 15, 2017, 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 

7400.11B, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2017, 

and effective September 15, 2017. FAA 

Order 7400.11B is publicly available as 

listed in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. FAA Order 7400.11B lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,

39588 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 155 / Friday, August 10, 2018 / Rules and Regulations 

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 

to within a 6.8-mile radius (increased 

from a 6.7-mile radius) at Capital Region 

International Airport (formerly Capital 

City Airport), Lansing, MI; removes the 

extension to the east of the airport 

associated with the ARTDA LOM; adds 

an extension within 2.0 miles each side 

of the 091° bearing from the airport from 

the 6.8-mile radius to 10.4 mile east of 

the airport; and adds an extension 

within 4.0 miles each side of the 233° 

from the airport from the 6.8-mile radius 

to 10.5 miles southwest of the airport. 

The name of the airport is also 

updated from Capital City Airport to 

Capital Region International Airport, 

and the geographic coordinates of the 

airport are updated to coincide with the 

FAA’s aeronautical database. 

Additionally, an editorial change is 

made removing the name of the city 

associated with the airport in the 

airspace legal designation to comply 

with a recent change to FAA Order 

7400.2L, Procedures for Handling 

Airspace Matters. 

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.

procedural provisions, including 

methods for submitting FOIA requests 

and appeals and the time limits for 

filing an administrative appeal, and to 

incorporate certain changes brought 

about by the amendments to the FOIA 

under the FOIA Improvement Act of 

2016. Additionally, the FOIA 

regulations are being updated to reflect 

developments in the case law. 

DATES: These amendments are effective

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background Information 

On February 6, 2018, the Department 

published a proposed rule revising its 

existing regulations under the FOIA and 

Privacy Act. See 83 FR 5215. This rule 

proposed revisions to the Department’s 

regulations under the Freedom of

of 2016 provides that agencies must 

allow a minimum of 90 days for 

requesters to file an administrative 

appeal. The Act also requires that 

agencies notify requesters of the 

availability of dispute resolution 

services at various times throughout the 

FOIA process. This rule updated the 

Department’s regulations in 15 CFR part 

4, subpart A, to reflect those statutory 

changes. Additionally, this rule revises
