Amendment and Establishment of 

Class E Airspace; Bar Harbor, ME 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action amends Class E 

surface area and Class E airspace 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the surface at Hancock County-Bar 

Harbor Airport, Bar Harbor, ME. This 

action would also update the geographic 

coordinates of the airport to coincide 

with the FAA’s database. In addition, 

this action also establishes Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface for Bar Harbor 

Heliport, Bar Harbor, ME. Controlled 

airspace is necessary for the safety and 

management of instrument flight rules 

(IFR) operations in the area. 

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, October 7, 

2021. 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 7400.11 and publication of 

conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the United States Code. 

Subtitle I, 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 amends and 

establishes Class E airspace in Bar 

Harbor, ME, to support IFR operations 

in the area. 

History 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking in the Federal 

Register (86 FR 24562, May 7, 2021) for 

Docket No. FAA–2021–0295 to amend 

Class E surface airspace and Class E 

airspace extending up from 700 feet 

above the surface for Hancock CountyBar Harbor Airport, Bar Harbor, ME. In 

addition, the geographical coordinates 

of Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport 

would be updated. This action also 

proposed to establish Class E airspace 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the surface for Bar Harbor Heliport. 

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 Paragraphs 6002 and 6005, 

respectively, of FAA Order 7400.11E, 

dated July 21, 2020, and effective 

September 15, 2020, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designations 

listed in this document will be 

published subsequently in the Order. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends FAA Order 

7400.11E, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated July 21, 2020, 

and effective September 15, 2020. FAA 

Order 7400.11E is publicly available as 

listed in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. FAA Order 7400.11E lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, 

air traffic routes, and reporting points. 

The Rule 

The FAA is amending 14 CFR part 71 

by amending Class E surface airspace for 

Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport, 

Bar Harbor, ME, by increasing the radius 

from 4.2 miles to 5.5 miles and 

eliminating the extensions off the 204° 

and 024° bearings, respectively. The 

Class E airspace extending up from 700 

feet above the surface for Hancock 

County-Bar Harbor is amended by 

increasing the radius from 7.4 miles to 

8.0 miles and adding an extension 3.7 

miles each side of the Hancock CountyBar Harbor Airport 025° bearing 

extending from the 8.0-mile radius to 

11.4 miles northeast of the airport. In 

addition, the geographical coordinates 

of Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport 

are updated to coincide with the FAA’s 

database. This action also establishes 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface for Bar Harbor 

Heliport. These changes are necessary 

for continued safety and management of 

IFR operations in the area. 

FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, is 

published yearly and effective on 

September 15. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

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 minimal. Since this is a 

routine matter that only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that 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.

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 5–6.5a. 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.
