AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: This action proposes to

Beacon (NDB) has been 

decommissioned and new Standard 

Instrument Approach Procedures have 

been developed at Hancock County-Bar 

Harbor Airport. This action would 

enhance the safety and airspace 

management of Instrument Flight Rules 

(IFR) operations at the airport. This 

action also would update the geographic 

coordinates of the airport.

Persons interested in being placed on 

a mailing list for future NPRMs should 

contact the FAA’s Office of Rulemaking, 

(202) 267–9677, to request a copy of 

Advisory circular No. 11–2A, Notice of 

Proposed Rulemaking distribution 

System, which describes the application 

procedure. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is considering an 

amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal 

Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to amend 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface to support 

new Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures developed at Hancock 

County-Bar Harbor Airport, Bar Harbor, 

ME. Airspace reconfiguration is 

necessary due to the decommissioning 

of the Surry NDB and cancellation of the 

NDB approach, and for continued safety 

and management of IFR operations at 

the airport. The geographic coordinates 

of the airport also would be adjusted to 

coincide with the FAAs aeronautical 

database. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9V, dated August 9, 2011, 

and effective September 15, 2011, 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. 

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 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS

Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 92 / Friday, May 11, 2012 / Proposed Rules 27667 

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, 

would 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 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 proposed 

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 proposed regulation is 

within the scope of that authority as it 

would amend Class E airspace at 

Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport, 

Bar Harbor, ME. 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1E, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.

The Proposed Amendment 

In consideration of the foregoing, the 

Federal Aviation Administration

1963 Comp., p. 389. 

§ 71.1 [Amended] 

2. The incorporation by reference in 

14 CFR 71.1 of Federal Aviation 

Administration Order 7400.9V, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, 

dated August 9, 2011, effective

Proposed Revocation of Class E 

Airspace; Lloydsville, PA, and 

Proposed Amendment of Class D and 

E Airspace; Latrobe, PA 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: This action proposes to 

remove the Class E Airspace listed at 

Lloydsville, PA, for Latrobe Hospital 

Heliport (old name), and incorporate 

Exela Health Latrobe Hospital Heliport 

(new name) into existing Class E 

airspace at Latrobe, PA. Also, this action 

proposes to amend Class D and E 

airspace at Latrobe, PA, as new 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures have been developed at 

Arnold Palmer Regional Airport. The 

geographic coordinates for both the 

heliport and the airport would be 

updated. This action would enhance the 

safety and airspace management of 

Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations 

in the Latrobe, PA, area. This action also 

would recognize the airport name 

change to Arnold Palmer Regional 

Airport. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before June 25, 2012. The Director of 

the Federal Register approves this 

incorporation by reference action under 

title 1, Code of Federal Regulations, part

FAA, Order 7400.9 and publication of 

conforming amendments.
