14 CFR Part 97 

[Docket No. 30843; Amdt. No. 3479] 

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 revokes 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 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 May 25, 

2012. The compliance date for each 

SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, 

and ODP is specified in the amendatory 

provisions.

telephone: (405) 954–4164. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends Title 14, Code of Federal 

Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97) by 

amending the referenced SIAPs. The 

complete regulatory description of each 

SIAP is listed on the appropriate FAA 

Form 8260, as modified by the National 

Flight Data Center (FDC)/Permanent 

Notice to Airmen (P–NOTAM), and is 

incorporated by reference in the 

amendment under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 

CFR part 51, and § 97.20 of Title 14 of 

the Code of Federal Regulations. 

The large number of SIAPs, their 

complex nature, and the need for a 

special format make their verbatim 

publication in the Federal Register 

expensive and impractical. Further, 

airmen do not use the regulatory text of 

the SIAPs, but 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 contained in FAA form 

documents is unnecessary. This 

amendment provides the affected CFR 

sections and specifies the types of SIAP 

and the corresponding effective dates. 

This amendment also identifies the 

airport and its location, the procedure 

and the amendment number. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is 

effective upon publication of each 

separate SIAP as amended in the 

transmittal. For safety and timeliness of 

change considerations, this amendment 

incorporates only specific changes 

contained for each SIAP as modified by 

FDC/P–NOTAMs. 

The SIAPs, as modified by FDC P– 

NOTAM, and contained in this 

amendment are based on the criteria 

contained in the U.S. Standard for 

Terminal Instrument Procedures 

(TERPS). In developing these changes to 

SIAPs, the TERPS criteria were applied 

only to specific conditions existing at 

the affected airports. All SIAP 

amendments in this rule have been 

previously issued by the FAA in a FDC 

NOTAM as an emergency action of 

immediate flight safety relating directly 

to published aeronautical charts. The 

circumstances which created the need 

for all these SIAP amendments requires 

making them effective in less than 30 

days. 

Because of the close and immediate 

relationship between these SIAPs and 

safety in air commerce, I find that notice 

and public procedure before adopting 

these SIAPs are impracticable and 

contrary to the public interest and, 

where applicable, that good cause exists 

for making these SIAPs effective in less 

than 30 days. 

Conclusion 

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.
