and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 

553(b) are impracticable and contrary to 

the public interest and, where 

applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d), good 

cause exists for making these SIAPs 

effective in less than 30 days. 

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.

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 removes Standard 

Instrument Approach Procedures 

(SIAPS) and associated Takeoff 

Minimums and Obstacle Departure 

procedures (ODPs) 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 January 24, 

2022. The compliance date for each 

SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, 

and ODP is specified in the amendatory 

provisions. 

The incorporation by reference of 

certain publications listed in the 

regulations is approved by the Director 

of the Federal Register as of January 24, 

2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends 14 CFR part 97 by establishing, 

amending, suspending, or removes 

SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums and/or 

ODPS. The complete regulatory 

description of each SIAP and its 

associated Takeoff Minimums or ODP 

for an identified airport is listed on FAA 

form documents which are incorporated 

by reference in this amendment under 5 

U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14 

CFR part 97.20. The applicable FAA

The large number of SIAPs, Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs, their complex 

nature, and the need for a special format 

make publication in the Federal 

Register expensive and impractical. 

Further, airmen do not use the 

regulatory text of the SIAPs, Takeoff 

Minimums or ODPs, but instead refer to 

their graphic depiction on charts 

printed by publishers or aeronautical 

materials. Thus, the advantages of 

incorporation by reference are realized 

and publication of the complete 

description of each SIAP, Takeoff 

Minimums and ODP listed on FAA form 

documents is unnecessary. This 

amendment provides the affected CFR 

sections and specifies the typed of 

SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs 

with their applicable effective dates. 

This amendment also identifies the 

airport and its location, the procedure, 

and the amendment number. 

Availability and Summary of Material 

Incorporated by Reference 

The material incorporated by 

reference is publicly available as listed 

in the ADDRESSES section. 

The material incorporated by 

reference describes SIAPS, Takeoff 

Minimums and/or ODPs as identified in 

the amendatory language for part 97 of 

this final rule. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is 

effective upon publication of each 

separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and 

ODP as amended in the transmittal. 

Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and 

textual ODP amendments may have 

been issued previously by the FAA in a 

Flight Data Center (FDC) Notice to 

Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency 

action of immediate flights safety 

relating directly to published 

aeronautical charts. 

The circumstances that created the 

need for some SIAP and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODP amendments may 

require making them effective in less 

than 30 days. For the remaining SIAPs 

and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, an 

effective date at least 30 days after 

publication is provided. 

Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs contained in this 

amendment are based on the criteria 

contained in the U.S. Standard for 

Terminal Instrument Procedures 

(TERPS). In developing these SIAPs and 

Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the 

TERPS criteria were applied to the 

conditions existing or anticipated at the 

affected airports. Because of the close 

and immediate relationship between 

these SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and 

ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find 

that notice and public procedure under 

5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and 

contrary to the public interest and, 

where applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d), 

good cause exists for making some 

SIAPs effective in less than 30 days. 

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.

RIN 1601–ZA21 

Notification of Temporary Travel 

Restrictions Applicable to Land Ports 

of Entry and Ferries Service Between 

the United States and Mexico 

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, U.S. 

Department of Homeland Security; U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection, U.S. 

Department of Homeland Security. 

ACTION: Notification of temporary travel 

restrictions. 

SUMMARY: This Notification announces 

the decision of the Secretary of 

Homeland Security (‘‘Secretary’’), after 

consulting with interagency partners, to 

temporarily restrict travel by certain 

noncitizens into the United States at 

land ports of entry, including ferry 

terminals (‘‘land POEs’’) along the 

United States-Mexico border. These 

restrictions only apply to noncitizens 

who are neither U.S. nationals nor 

lawful permanent residents (‘‘noncitizen 

non-LPRs’’). Under the temporary 

restrictions, DHS will allow processing 

for entry into the United States of only 

those noncitizen non-LPRs who are 

fully vaccinated against COVID–19 and 

can provide proof of being fully 

vaccinated against COVID–19 upon 

request. The restrictions provide for 

limited exceptions, largely consistent 

with the limited exceptions currently 

available with respect to COVID–19 

vaccination in the international air 

travel context. Unlike past actions of 

this type, this Notification does not 

contain an exception for essential travel. 

DATES: These restrictions go into effect 

at 12 a.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST) 

on January 22, 2022, and will remain in 

effect until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight 

Time (EDT) on April 21, 2022, unless 

amended or rescinded prior to that time.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On March 24, 2020, the Department of 

Homeland Security (‘‘DHS’’) published 

a Notification of its decision to 

temporarily limit the travel of certain 

noncitizen non-LPRs into the United 

States at land POEs along the United 

States-Mexico border to ‘‘essential 

travel,’’ as further defined in that 

document.1 The March 24, 2020 

Notification described the developing 

circumstances regarding the COVID–19 

pandemic and stated that, given the 

outbreak, continued transmission, and 

spread of the virus associated with 

COVID–19 within the United States and 

globally, DHS had determined that the 

risk of continued transmission and 

spread of the virus associated with 

COVID–19 between the United States 

and Mexico posed a ‘‘specific threat to 

human life or national interests.’’ Under 

the March 24, 2020 Notification, DHS 

continued to allow certain categories of 

travel, described as ‘‘essential travel.’’ 

Essential travel included travel to attend 

educational institutions, travel to work 

in the United States, travel for 

emergency response and public health 

purposes, and travel for lawful crossborder trade. Essential travel also 

included travel by U.S. citizens and 

lawful permanent residents returning to 

the United States. 

From March 2020 through October 

2021, in consultation with interagency 

partners, DHS reevaluated and 

ultimately extended the restrictions on 

non-essential travel each month. The 

most recent action of this type, 

published on October 21, 2021, 

continued the restrictions until 11:59 

p.m. EST on January 21, 2022.2 In that 

document, DHS acknowledged that 

notwithstanding the continuing threat to 

human life or national interests posed 

by COVID–19—as well as recent 

increases in case levels, 

hospitalizations, and deaths due to the 

Delta variant—COVID–19 vaccines are 

effective against Delta and other known 

COVID–19 variants. These vaccines 

protect people from becoming infected 

with and severely ill from COVID–19 

and significantly reduce the likelihood 

of hospitalization and death. DHS also 

acknowledged the White House COVID– 

19 Response Coordinator’s September 

2021 announcement regarding the 

United States’ plans to revise standards 

and procedures for incoming 

international air travel to enable the air 

travel of travelers fully vaccinated 

against COVID–19 beginning in early 

November 2021.3 DHS further stated 

that the Secretary intended to do the 

same with respect to certain travelers 

seeking to enter the United States from 

Mexico and Canada at land POEs to 

align the treatment of different types of 

travel and allow those who are fully 

vaccinated against COVID–19 to travel 

to the United States for non-essential 

reasons.4

On October 29, 2021, following 

additional announcements regarding 

changes to the international air travel 

policy by the President of the United 

States and the Centers for Disease 

Control and Prevention (‘‘CDC’’),5 DHS 

announced that beginning November 8, 

2021, non-essential travel of noncitizen 

non-LPRs would be permitted through 

land POEs, provided that the traveler is 

fully vaccinated against COVID–19 and 

can provide proof of full COVID–19 

vaccination status.6 DHS also
