Availability and Summary of 

Documents Proposed for Incorporation 

by Reference 

This document proposes to amend 

FAA Order 7400.9Y, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, 

dated August 6, 2014, and effective 

September 15, 2014. FAA Order 

7400.9Y is publicly available as listed in 

the ADDRESSES section of this proposed 

rule. FAA Order 7400.9Y lists Class A, 

B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic 

service routes, and reporting points. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations 

(14 CFR) Part 71 by modifying Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Converse 

County Airport, Douglas, WY. The 

airspace would be modified to within a 

4-mile radius of Converse County 

Airport, with a segment extending from 

the 4-mile radius to the 7-mile radius 

east to southwest of the airport, and a 

segment extending from the 4-mile 

radius to 7 miles northwest of the 

airport. The geographic coordinates of 

the airport would be updated to 

coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical 

database. The lateral boundary for that 

airspace extending from 1,200 feet 

above the surface would be defined 

utilizing latitudinal and longitudinal 

reference points instead of Federal 

airway V–19, and would not change the 

lateral boundaries or operating 

requirements of the 1,200 foot airspace. 

This action is necessary for the safety 

and management of IFR operations for 

SIAPs at the airport. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9Y, dated August 6, 2014, 

and effective September 15, 2014, 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. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined this 

proposed regulation only involves an 

established body of technical 

regulations for which frequent and 

routine amendments are necessary to 

keep them operationally current. 

Therefore, this proposed 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 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. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA 

Order 1050.1E, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures’’ prior 

to any FAA final regulatory action.

Availability and Summary of 

Documents Proposed for Incorporation 

by Reference 

This document proposes to amend 

FAA Order 7400.9Y, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, 

dated August 6, 2014, and effective 

September 15, 2014. FAA Order 

7400.9Y is publicly available as listed in 

the ADDRESSES section of this proposed 

rule. FAA Order 7400.9Y lists Class A, 

B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic 

service routes, and reporting points. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations 

(14 CFR) Part 71 by modifying Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Tracy 

Municipal Airport, Tracy, CA. 

Decommissioning of the Manteca VOR/ 

DME and subsequent review of the 

airspace revealed that airspace redesign 

is necessary for the safety and 

management of IFR operations for 

standard instrument approach 

procedures at the airport. Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface would be 

modified to within a 3.9-mile radius of 

Tracy Municipal Airport with segments 

extending from the 3.9-mile radius to 11 

miles northwest, 6.4 miles east, and 9 

miles southeast, of the airport. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005, 

respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9Y, 

dated August 6, 2014, and effective 

September 15, 2014, 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. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined this 

proposed regulation only involves an 

established body of technical
