Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 204 / Tuesday, October 22, 2024 / Proposed Rules 84311 

within 1.6 miles each side of the 229° 

(previously 236°) radial from the El 

Dorado VOR/DME (previously El 

Dorado VORTAC) extending from the 

6.7-mile radius from the airport to 15 

miles southwest of the El Dorado VOR/ 

DME (previously the airport); updating 

the geographic coordinates and name of 

the airport (previously Goodwin Field) 

and the name of the El Dorado VOR/ 

DME (previously El Dorado VORTAC) to 

coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical 

database; and removing the city 

associated with the airport in the 

airspace legal description header to 

comply with changes to FAA Order JO 

7400.2P. 

This action is the result of an airspace 

review conducted due to the 

development of new instrument 

procedures and to support IFR 

operations at this airport. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed 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 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1F, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.

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 would 

revoke the Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Follett/Lipscomb County Airport, 

Follett, TX, due to the instrument 

procedures being cancelled and the 

airspace no longer being required. 

Comments Invited 

The FAA invites interested persons to 

participate in this rulemaking by 

submitting written comments, data, or 

views. Comments are specifically 

invited on the overall regulatory, 

aeronautical, economic, environmental, 

and energy-related aspects of the 

proposal. The most helpful comments 

reference a specific portion of the 

proposal, explain the reason for any 

recommended change, and include 

supporting data. To ensure the docket 

does not contain duplicate comments, 

commenters should submit only one 

time if comments are filed 

electronically, or commenters should 

send only one copy of written 

comments if comments are filed in 

writing. 

The FAA will file in the docket all 

comments it receives, as well as a report 

summarizing each substantive public 

contact with FAA personnel concerning 

this proposed rulemaking. Before acting 

on this proposal, the FAA will consider 

all comments it received on or before 

the closing date for comments. The FAA 

will consider comments filed after the 

comment period has closed if it is 

possible to do so without incurring 

expense or delay. The FAA may change 

this proposal in light of the comments 

it receives. 

Privacy: In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 

553(c), DOT solicits comments from the 

public to better inform its rulemaking 

process. DOT post these comments, 

without edit, including any personal 

information the commenter provides, to 

www.regulations.gov as described in the 

system of records notice (DOT/ALL– 

14FDMS), which can be reviewed at 

www.dot.gov/privacy.

may be downloaded through the 

internet at www.regulations.gov. 

Recently published rulemaking 

documents can also be accessed through 

the FAA’s web page at www.faa.gov/air_

You may review the public docket 

containing the proposal, any comments 

received, and any final disposition in 

person in the Dockets Office (see the 

ADDRESSES section for the address,

Incorporation by Reference 

Class E airspace is published in 

paragraph 6005 of FAA Order JO 

7400.11, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, which is incorporated 

by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 on an 

annual basis. This document proposes 

to amend the current version of that 

order, FAA Order JO 7400.11J, dated 

July 31, 2024, and effective September 

15, 2024. These updates would be 

published subsequently in the next 

update to FAA Order JO 7400.11. That 

order is publicly available as listed in 

the ADDRESSES section of this document. 

FAA Order JO 7400.11J lists Class A, 

B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic 

service routes, and reporting points. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to 14 CFR part 71 by revoking the Class 

E airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Follett/ 

Lipscomb County Airport, Follett, TX. 

This action is the result of the 

cancellation of the instrument 

procedures at the airport and the 

airspace no longer being required. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed 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 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1F, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.
