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 would 

amend the Class D airspace, the Class E 

airspace area designated as an extension 

to a Class D surface area, and the Class 

E airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Waynesville-St. 

Robert Regional Airport Forney Field, 

Fort Leonard Wood, MO, to support 

instrument flight rule operations at this 

airport.

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document proposes to amend 

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 service routes, and reporting 

points. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to 14 CFR part 71 by: 

Amending the Class D airspace at 

Waynesville-St. Robert Regional Airport 

Forney Field, Fort Leonard Wood, Mo, 

by updating the name (previously 

Waynesville Regional Airport at Forney 

Field) of the airport to coincide with the 

FAA’s aeronautical database; and 

replacing the outdated term of ‘‘Airport/ 

Facility Directory’’ with ‘‘Chart 

Supplement’’; 

Amending the Class E airspace area 

designated as an extension to a Class D 

surface area at Waynesville-St. Robert 

Regional Airport Forney Field by 

removing the Buckhorn NDB and 

associated extensions from the airspace 

legal description as they are no longer 

needed; removing the exclusionary 

language as it is no longer needed; 

updating the name (previously 

Waynesville Regional Airport at Forney 

Field) of the airport to coincide with the 

FAA’s aeronautical database; and 

replacing the outdated term of ‘‘Airport/ 

Facility Directory’’ with ‘‘Chart 

Supplement’’; 

And amending the Class E airspace 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the at Waynesville-St. Robert Regional 

Airport Forney Field by removing the 

Buckhorn NDB and associated 

extensions from the airspace legal 

description as they are no longer 

needed; and updating the name 

(previously Waynesville Regional 

Airport at Forney Field) of the airport to 

coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical 

database. 

This action is necessary due to an 

airspace review caused by the 

decommissioning of the Maples VOR, 

which provided navigation information 

for the instrument procedures this 

airport, as part of the VOR MON 

Program. 

Class D and E airspace designations 

are published in paragraph 5000, 6004, 

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 D and E airspace 

designation listed in this document will 

be published subsequently in the Order. 

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, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. 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. Since this is a 

routine matter that will only affect air 

traffic procedures and air navigation, it 

is certified that this 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. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1F, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.
