AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking

County Airport. The FAA is proposing 

this action to enhance the safety and 

management of aircraft operations at 

Lakeview County Airport. This would 

also correct the airport name.

Persons interested in being placed on

contact the FAA’s Office of Rulemaking, 

(202) 267–9677, for a copy of Advisory 

Circular No. 11–2A, Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking Distribution System, which 

describes the application procedure. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations 

(14 CFR) part 71 by modifying Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Lakeview 

County Airport, Lakeview, OR. 

Controlled airspace is necessary to 

accommodate aircraft using RNAV 

(GPS) standard instrument approach 

procedures at Lakeview County Airport. 

Additional controlled airspace 

extending upward from 1,200 feet above 

the surface would be established to the 

north and to the south of the airport to 

contain the holding patterns. This 

action would enhance the safety and 

management of aircraft operations at the 

airport. Also, the airport formerly called 

Lakeview Airport is changed to 

Lakeview County Airport. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005, of FAA 

Order 7400.9W, dated August 8, 2012, 

and effective September 15, 2012, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designation 

listed in this document will be 

published subsequently in this Order. 

The FAA has determined this 

proposed regulation only involves an 

established body of technical 

regulations for which frequent and 

routine amendments are necessary to 

keep them operationally current. 

Therefore, this proposed 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 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 U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, 

Section 106, describes the authority for 

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 the 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 

modify controlled airspace at Lakeview 

County Airport, Lakeview, OR. 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1E, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with 

5156 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 16 / Thursday, January 24, 2013 / Proposed Rules

RIN 1625–AA09 

Drawbridge Operation Regulation; 

Christina River, Wilmington, DE 

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to 

modify the operating schedule that 

governs the Third Street Bridge at mile 

2.3, the Walnut Street Bridge at mile 2.8, 

and the Market Street Bridge at mile 3.0, 

all located on the Christina River in 

Wilmington, DE. Since the three 

drawbridges are located near one 

another and the few vessels that do 

transit this waterway usually go through 

all three bridges, it is proposed that all 

the bridges open on the same eight hour 

advance notice. This proposal would 

change the current regulations by 

allowing the Third Street and Walnut 

Street drawbridges to be opened in 

sequence with the same eight hour 

advance notice currently given to the 

Market Street drawbridge. This 

proposed schedule clarifies the 

sequencing of the three drawbridge 

openings, and provides for the 

reasonable needs of navigation. 

DATES: Comments and related material 

must be received by the Coast Guard on 

or before March 11, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments 

identified by docket number USCG– 

2012–1085 using any one of the 

following methods:
