14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2011-0432; Airspace Docket No. 11-ACE-8]

Revocation of Class E Airspace; Ozark, MO

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action removes Class E airspace at Ozark, MO. Abandonment 
of the former Air Park South Airport and cancellation of all Standard 
Instrument Approach Procedures has eliminated the need for controlled 
airspace in the Ozark, MO area. The FAA is taking this action to ensure 
the efficient use of airspace within the National Airspace System.

DATES: Effective date: 0901 UTC, August 25, 2011. The Director of the 
Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under 
1 CFR part 51, subject to the annual revision of FAA Order 7400.9 and 
publication of conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
Part 71 by removing Class E airspace in the Ozark, MO, area. 
Abandonment of the former Air Park South Airport and cancellation of 
all Standard Instrument Approach Procedures has eliminated the need for 
controlled airspace. Since this action eliminates the impact of 
controlled airspace on users of the National Airspace System in the 
vicinity of Ozark, MO, notice and public procedures under 5 U.S.C. 
553(b) are unnecessary.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005, of 
FAA Order 7400.9U, dated August 18, 2010, and effective September 15, 
2010, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR part 71.1. The Class 
E airspace designation listed in this document will be published 
subsequently in this Order.
    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. 
Therefore, this 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 that this 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.
    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 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 removes controlled airspace at Air Park South Airport, Ozark, MO.
