14 CFR Part 71 

[Docket No. FAA–2011–1313; Airspace 

Docket No. 11–AWP–17] 

Modification of Class E Airspace; 

Douglas, AZ 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action modifies Class E 

airspace at Bisbee Douglas International 

Airport, Douglas, AZ. Decommissioning 

of the Cochise VHF Omni-Directional 

Radio Range Tactical Air Navigational 

Aid (VORTAC) has made this action 

necessary for the safety and 

management of aircraft operations at the 

airport. This action also adjusts the 

geographic coordinates of the airport, 

and corrects a typographical error in the 

legal description for the Class E 700 foot 

airspace. This improves the safety and 

management of Instrument Flight Rules 

(IFR) operations at the airport. 

DATES: Effective date, 0901 UTC, May 

31, 2012. The Director of the Federal 

Register approves this incorporation by 

reference action under 1 CFR part 51, 

subject to the annual revision of FAA 

Order 7400.9 and publication of 

conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On December 16, 2011, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking to amend 

controlled airspace at Douglas, AZ (76 

FR 78180). 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 a 

typographical error in a bearing of the 

1,200 foot airspace description and 

makes the correction in the rule. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6002 and 6005, 

respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9V 

dated August 9, 2011, and effective 

September 15, 2011, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designations 

listed in this document will be 

published subsequently in that Order. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by 

modifying Class E surface airspace, and 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at Douglas, 

AZ. Additional controlled airspace is 

necessary to accommodate aircraft using 

VHF Omni-Directional Radio Range/ 

Distance Measuring Equipment, Global 

Positioning System standard instrument 

approach procedures at Bisbee Douglas 

International Airport, Douglas, AZ. 

Decommissioning of the Cochise 

VORTAC has made this action 

necessary and enhances the safety and 

management of aircraft operations at the 

airport. The geographic coordinates of 

the airport is also updated to coincide 

with the FAA’s aeronautical database. In 

the 700 foot/1,200 foot airspace 

description, the 20-mile radius bearing 

076° is corrected to 075° bearing of the 

airport. 

The FAA has determined 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 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 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 discusses 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 modifies 

controlled airspace at Bisbee Douglas 

International Airport, Douglas, AZ.
