City Air Route Traffic Control Center 

(ARTCC). This improves the safety and 

management of IFR operations within 

the National Airspace System. 

DATES: Effective date, 0901 UTC, 

December 12, 2013. The Director of the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On July 3, 2013, the FAA published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to 

establish controlled airspace at Cody, 

WY (78 FR 40078). Interested parties 

were invited to participate in this 

rulemaking effort by submitting written 

comments on the proposal to the FAA. 

No comments were received. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6006, of FAA 

Order 7400.9X dated August 7, 2013, 

and effective September 15, 2013, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

Part 71.1. The Class E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in that 

Order. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by 

establishing Class E en route domestic 

airspace extending upward from 1,200 

feet above the surface, at the Cody VOR/ 

DME navigation aid, Cody, WY, to 

accommodate IFR aircraft under control 

of Salt Lake City ARTCC by vectoring 

aircraft from en route airspace to 

terminal areas. This action ensures the 

safety and management of IFR 

operations. 

The FAA has determined 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 only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified this rule, when promulgated, 

does 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 

discusses 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 establishes 

controlled airspace at the Cody VOR/

DME, Cody WY. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1E, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 311a. This airspace action is 

not expected to cause any potentially 

significant environmental impacts, and 

no extraordinary circumstances exist 

that warrant preparation of an 

environmental assessment.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On December 21, 2012, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

to establish controlled airspace at White 

Mountain, Airport, White Mountain, AK 

(77 FR 75598). Interested parties were 

invited to participate in this rulemaking 

effort by submitting written comments 

on the proposal to the FAA. No 

comments were received. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005, of FAA

and effective September 15, 2013, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

Part 71.1. The Class E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in that 

Order. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by 

establishing Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface, 

at White Mountain Airport, White 

Mountain, AK. Controlled airspace 

within a 6.3 mile radius of the airport, 

with extensions to the northwest and 

southeast, is necessary to accommodate 

aircraft using new RNAV (GPS) standard 

instrument approach procedures to/ 

from the en route environment at White 

Mountain Airport. This action is 

necessary for the safety and 

management of IFR operations at the 

airport.
