[Docket No. FAA-2009-0690; Airspace Docket No. 09-AWP-6]

 
Establishment of Class E Airspace; Riverside/Rubidoux Flabob 
Airport, Riverside, CA

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action will establish Class E airspace at Riverside/
Rubidoux Flabob Airport, Riverside, CA, to accommodate aircraft using a 
new VHF Omni-Directional Radio Range (VOR) Standard Instrument Approach 
Procedure (SIAP) at Riverside/Rubidoux Flabob Airport. This will 
improve the safety of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) aircraft executing 
the new VOR SIAPs at the airport. This action also makes an adjustment 
to the geographic coordinates of the airport.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, April 8, 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 and 
publication of conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On October 14, 2009, the FAA published in the Federal Register a 
notice of proposed rulemaking to establish controlled airspace at 
Riverside/Rubidoux Flabob Airport, Riverside, CA (74 FR 52704). 
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 7400.9T signed August 27, 2009, and effective September 15, 
2009, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 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 airspace at Riverside/Rubidoux Flabob 
Airport, Riverside, CA. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 
feet above the surface is necessary to accommodate IFR aircraft 
executing new VOR SIAPs at Riverside/Rubidoux Flabob Airport. This 
action also adjusts the geographic coordinates of the airport to 
coincide with the FAA's National Aeronautical Charting Office.
    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. 
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 that 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 FAAs 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 
controlled

airspace at Riverside/Rubidoux Flabob Airport, Riverside, CA.
