Establishment of Class E Airspace; Kemmerer, WY

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This action will establish Class E airspace at Kemmerer, WY to 
accommodate aircraft using a new Area Navigation (RNAV) Global 
Positioning System (GPS) Standard Instrument Approach Procedures 
(SIAPs) at Kemmerer Municipal Airport. This will improve the safety and 
management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the airport.

DATES: Effective date, 0901 UTC, September 23, 2010. 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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On March 11, 2010, the FAA published in the Federal Register a 
notice of proposed rulemaking to amend controlled airspace at Kemmerer, 
WY (75 FR 11477). 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 6002 and 
6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9T signed August 27, 2009, and 
effective September 15, 2009, which is incorporated by reference in 14 
CFR Part 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 establishing Class E surface airspace, and amending Class E 
airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface by amending 
the geographic coordinates to coincide with the FAA's National 
Aeronautical Charting Office for Kemmerer Municipal Airport. This 
action will accommodate IFR aircraft executing new RNAV (GPS) SIAPs at 
the airport. This action is necessary for the safety and management of 
IFR operations.
    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 establishes additional controlled 
airspace at Kemmerer Municipal Airport, Kemmerer, WY.
