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 modifies 

controlled airspace at Napa County 

Airport, Napa, CA. 

History 

On July 19, 2016, the FAA published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to modify 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at Napa 

County Airport, Napa, CA (81 FR 46850) 

Docket FAA–2016–5574. 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 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.11A, dated August 3, 2016, 

and effective September 15, 2016, 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. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends FAA Order 

7400.11A, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2016, 

and effective September 15, 2016. FAA 

Order 7400.11A is publicly available as 

listed in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, 

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

The Rule 

This amendment to Title 14, Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 

modifies Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Napa County Airport, Napa, CA, by 

removing an irregular shaped area 

located approximately 20 miles 

southwest of the airport. This airspace 

area is discontinuous from the airspace 

surrounding Napa County Airport and is 

not necessary to support IFR operations. 

This action also updates the airport 

geographic coordinates to Lat. 38°12′48′′ 

N., Long. 122°16′51′′ W., to coincide 

with the FAA’s aeronautical database. 

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, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. 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 only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, does 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 exist 

that warrant preparation of an 

environmental assessment.

[Docket No. 31094; Amdt. No. 3711] 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums 

and Obstacle Departure Procedures; 

Miscellaneous Amendments 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This rule establishes, amends, 

suspends, or removes Standard 

Instrument Approach Procedures 

(SIAPs) and associated Takeoff 

Minimums and Obstacle Departure 

Procedures (ODPs) for operations at 

certain airports. These regulatory 

actions are needed because of the 

adoption of new or revised criteria, or 

because of changes occurring in the 

National Airspace System, such as the 

commissioning of new navigational 

facilities, adding new obstacles, or 

changing air traffic requirements. These 

changes are designed to provide safe 

and efficient use of the navigable 

airspace and to promote safe flight 

operations under instrument flight rules 

at the affected airports. 

DATES: This rule is effective September 

30, 2016. The compliance date for each 

SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, 

and ODP is specified in the amendatory 

provisions. 

The incorporation by reference of 

certain publications listed in the 

regulations is approved by the Director 

of the Federal Register as of September 

30, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends Title 14 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97), by 

establishing, amending, suspending, or 

removes SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums 

and/or ODPS. The complete regulatory 

description of each SIAP and its 

associated Takeoff Minimums or ODP 

for an identified airport is listed on FAA 

form documents which are incorporated 

by reference in this amendment under 5 

U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14 

CFR part 97.20. The applicable FAA 

forms are FAA Forms 8260–3, 8260–4, 

8260–5, 8260–15A, and 8260–15B when 

required by an entry on 8260–15A. 

The large number of SIAPs, Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs, their complex 

nature, and the need for a special format 

make publication in the Federal 

Register expensive and impractical. 

Further, airmen do not use the 

regulatory text of the SIAPs, Takeoff 

Minimums or ODPs, but instead refer to 

their graphic depiction on charts 

printed by publishers of aeronautical 

materials. Thus, the advantages of 

incorporation by reference are realized 

and publication of the complete 

description of each SIAP, Takeoff 

Minimums and ODP listed on FAA form 

documents is unnecessary. This 

amendment provides the affected CFR 

sections and specifies the types of 

SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs 

with their applicable effective dates. 

This amendment also identifies the 

airport and its location, the procedure, 

and the amendment number. 

Availability and Summary of Material 

Incorporated by Reference 

The material incorporated by 

reference is publicly available as listed 

in the ADDRESSES section. 

The material incorporated by 

reference describes SIAPS, Takeoff 

Minimums and/or ODPS as identified in 

the amendatory language for part 97 of 

this final rule. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is 

effective upon publication of each 

separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and 

ODP as Amended in the transmittal. 

Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and 

textual ODP amendments may have 

been issued previously by the FAA in a 

Flight Data Center (FDC) Notice to 

Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency 

action of immediate flight safety relating 

directly to published aeronautical 

charts. 

The circumstances that created the 

need for some SIAP and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODP amendments may 

require making them effective in less 

than 30 days. For the remaining SIAPs 

and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, an 

effective date at least 30 days after 

publication is provided. 

Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs contained in this 

amendment are based on the criteria 

contained in the U.S. Standard for 

Terminal Instrument Procedures 

(TERPS). In developing these SIAPs and 

Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the 

TERPS criteria were applied to the 

conditions existing or anticipated at the 

affected airports. Because of the close 

and immediate relationship between 

these SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and 

ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find 

that notice and public procedure under 

5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and 

contrary to the public interest and, 

where applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d), 

good cause exists for making some 

SIAPs effective in less than 30 days. 

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. For the same 

reason, the FAA certifies that this 

amendment will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This rule amends, suspends, 

or removes Standard Instrument 

Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and 

associated Takeoff Minimums and 

Obstacle Departure Procedures for 

operations at certain airports. These 

regulatory actions are needed because of 

the adoption of new or revised criteria, 

or because of changes occurring in the 

National Airspace System, such as the 

commissioning of new navigational 

facilities, adding new obstacles, or 

changing air traffic requirements. These 

changes are designed to provide for the 

safe and efficient use of the navigable 

airspace and to promote safe flight 

operations under instrument flight rules 

at the affected airports. 

DATES: This rule is effective September 

30, 2016. The compliance date for each 

SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, 

and ODP is specified in the amendatory 

provisions. 

The incorporation by reference of 

certain publications listed in the 

regulations is approved by the Director 

of the Federal Register as of September
