## 28306 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 95 / Tuesday, May 17, 2011 / Rules and Regulations

and effective September 15, 2010, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and 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 modifying Class E extending upward from 700 feet above the surface, at Livermore Municipal Airport, Livermore, CA, to accommodate IFR aircraft executing new ILS LOC standard instrument approach procedures at the airport, and adds the airport name and geographic coordinates to the airspace designation. Also, this action corrects a typographic error in the regulatory text of the Class D airspace area by correcting the word ‘iport’ to ‘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 Livermore Municipal Airport, Livermore, CA. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71

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 D and Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 5000, 6002, 6004 and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9U dated August 18, 2010, and effective September 15, 2010, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1.

The Rule

This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by amending Class D and Class E airspace by changing the airport name from Fanning Field to Idaho Falls Regional Airport, and adjusts the geographic coordinates of the airport to be in concert with the FAA’s Aeronautical Products Office. Also, existing Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface, at Idaho Falls Regional Airport is modified to accommodate aircraft using new RNAV (RNP) standard instrument approach procedures. This action is necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations.
