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 

proposed rule, when promulgated, 

would 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 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 proposed 

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 proposed regulation is 

within the scope of that authority as it 

would remove Class E airspace at 

Southport, NC and establish Class E 

airspace at Cape Fear Regional Jetport/ 

Howie Franklin Field, Oak Island, NC.

Persons interested in being placed on

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 

The FAA is considering an 

amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal 

Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to establish 

Class E airspace at Marion, AL, 

providing the controlled airspace 

required to support the new RNAV GPS 

standard instrument approach 

procedures for Vaiden Field. Controlled 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface would be 

established for the safety and 

management of IFR operations at the 

airport. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in Paragraph 6005 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 designation 

listed in this document will 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 

proposed rule, when promulgated, 

would 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 United States Code. 

Subtitle I, Section 106 describes the 

authority of the FAA Administrator. 

Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs,

agency’s authority. This proposed 

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 proposed regulation is

International Services Surveys and 

Direct Investment Surveys Reporting 

AGENCY: Bureau of Economic Analysis. 

ACTION: Proposed rule; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Economic 

Analysis (BEA) proposes to revise its 

rules to establish general guidelines for 

reporting on international trade in 

services and direct investment surveys 

provided for by the International 

Investment and Trade in Services 

Survey Act (22 U.S.C. 3101 to 3108, (the 

Act)). In addition to the Act, the 

Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness 

Act of 1988 (15 U.S.C. 4908) provides 

authority for the international trade in 

services surveys. Currently, 

international trade in services and direct 

investment surveys are promulgated 

through separate rulemaking actions. 

This rule will modify the guidelines to 

allow such surveys to be issued through 

notices rather than as more formal 

rulemakings. The purpose of this rule is 

to provide a more general framework for 

collection of data on these surveys that 

are required, or provided for, by the 

statutes. The effect of this rule is to 

simplify and generalize existing 

regulations governing the procurement 

of information on international trade in 

services and direct investment. 

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule 

will receive consideration if submitted 

in writing on or before 5 p.m. March 6, 

2012. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, 

identified by RIN 0691–AA81, and
