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 updates 

airport names and airspace descriptions. 

This update is administrative change 

and does not change the airspace 

boundaries or operating requirements. 

Incorporation by Reference 

Class D and Class E airspace are 

published in paragraphs 5000, 6002, 

6004, and 6005 of FAA Order JO 

7400.11, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, incorporated by 

reference in 14 CFR 71.1 annually. This 

document amends the current version of 

that order, FAA Order JO 7400.11H, 

dated August 11, 2023, and effective 

September 15, 2023. FAA Order JO 

7400.11H is publicly available as listed 

in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. These amendments will be 

published in the next FAA Order JO 

7400.11 update. FAA Order JO 

7400.11H lists Class A, B, C, D, and E 

airspace areas, air traffic service routes, 

and reporting points. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 71 

amends the Class D airspace, Class E 

surface airspace, Class E airspace 

designated as an extension to a Class D 

surface area, and Class E airspace 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the surface for Fort Novosel, Ozark, AL, 

and Fort Moore, Columbus, GA by 

updating each airport’s name (formerly 

Fort Rucker and Fort Benning, 

respectively), as well as updating the 

descriptions by making editorial 

changes, replacing the term Notice to 

Airmen with Notice to Air Missions, 

and replacing the term Airport/Facility 

Directory with Chart Supplement in the 

appropriate descriptions. This action is 

an administrative change and does not 

affect the airspace boundaries or 

operating requirements; therefore, 

notice and public procedure under 5 

U.S.C. 553(b) is unnecessary. 

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. 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, will 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 warrant 

the preparation of an environmental 

assessment.

Temporary Placement of MDMB–4en– 

PINACA, 4F–MDMB–BUTICA, ADB– 

4en–PINACA, CUMYL–PEGACLONE, 

5F–EDMB–PICA, and MMB–FUBICA 

into Schedule I 

AGENCY: Drug Enforcement 

Administration, Department of Justice. 

ACTION: Temporary amendment; 

temporary scheduling order. 

SUMMARY: The Administrator of the Drug 

Enforcement Administration is issuing 

this temporary order to schedule six 

synthetic cannabinoids and their optical 

and geometric isomers, salts, and salts 

of isomers, whenever the existence of 

such isomers and salts is possible, in

a finding by the Administrator that the 

placement of these six substances in 

schedule I is necessary to avoid 

imminent hazard to the public safety. 

As a result of this order, the regulatory 

controls and administrative, civil, and 

criminal sanctions applicable to 

schedule I controlled substances on 

persons who handle (manufacture, 

distribute, reverse distribute, import, 

export, engage in research, conduct 

instructional activities or chemical 

analysis with, or possess) or propose to 

handle these six specified controlled 

substances. 

DATES: This temporary scheduling order 

is effective December 12, 2023, until 

December 12, 2025. If this order is 

extended or made permanent, the DEA 

will publish a document in the Federal

Administrator finds that such action is 

necessary to avoid an imminent hazard 

to the public safety.2 In addition, if 

proceedings to control a substance are
