35470 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 112 / Friday, June 10, 2022 / Proposed Rules 

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.

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 

surface airspace, and the Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Mansfield 

Lahm Municipal Airport, Mansfield, 

OH, 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 JO 7400.11F, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, 

dated August 10, 2021, and effective 

September 15, 2021. FAA Order JO 

7400.11F is publicly available as listed 

in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. FAA Order JO 7400.11F 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 

Mansfield Lahm Municipal Airport, 

Mansfield, OH, by removing the 

Mansfield VORTAC and associated 

extension from the airspace legal 

description as they are no longer 

needed; and replacing the outdated 

terms ‘‘Notice to Airmen’’ with ‘‘Notice 

to Air Missions’’ and ‘‘Airport/Facility 

Directory’’ with ‘‘Chart Supplement’’; 

Amending the Class E surface 

airspace at Mansfield Lahm Municipal 

Airport by removing the Mansfield 

VORTAC and associated extension from 

the airspace legal description as they are 

no longer needed; and adding missing 

part-time language to the airspace legal 

description; 

And amending the Class E airspace 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the surface at Mansfield Lahm 

Municipal Airport by removing the 

extensions to the southeast, northwest, 

and southwest of the airport from the 

airspace legal description as they are no 

longer needed; amending the extension 

northeast of the airport to within 2 

(decreased from 4) miles each side of 

the 047° bearing from the airport 

extending from the 6.9-mile radius of 

the airport to 8.9 (decreased from 11.2) 

miles northeast of the airport; amending 

the extension southeast of the VORTAC 

to within 9.9 miles northeast and 6.1 

miles southwest (previously 4.4 miles 

each side) of the Mansfield VORTAC 

133° (previously 130°) radial extending 

from the 6.9-mile radius of the airport 

to 19 (increased from 13.8) miles 

southeast of the VORTAC; amending the 

extension northwest of the VORTAC to 

within 9.9 miles southwest and 6.1 

miles northeast (previously 6.1 miles 

each side) of the Mansfield VORTAC 

310° (previously 307°) radial extending 

from the 6.9-mile radius of the airport 

to 10 (decreased from 13.3) miles 

northwest of the VORTAC; removing the 

cities associated with the airports in the 

airspace legal description to comply 

with changes to FAA Order JO 7400.2N, 

Procedures for Handling Airspace 

Matters; and updating the geographic 

coordinates of the Mansfield VORTAC 

to coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical 

database. 

This action is due to a biennial 

airspace review. 

Class D and E airspace designations 

are published in paragraphs 5000, 6002, 

and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order JO 

7400.11F, dated August 10, 2021, and 

effective September 15, 2021, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class D and E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in FAA 

Order JO 7400.11. 

FAA Order JO 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.

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Supplemental notification of 

inquiry, request for comments. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is seeking 

information and comments on 

proposing a change to the drawbridge 

operating regulations for the Florida 

East Coast (FEC) Railroad Bridge, mile 

7.4, and the SR 707 (Dixie Hwy) Bridge, 

mile 7.5, across the Okeechobee 

Waterway (OWW), at Stuart, Florida. In 

anticipation of passenger rail service 

across the FEC Railroad Bridge, the 

Coast Guard recognizes a change to the 

drawbridge operating schedules may be 

necessary to meet the reasonable needs 

of the maritime community and railway 

traffic. We invite your comments on this 

proposed rulemaking. 

DATES: Comments and related material 

must reach the Coast Guard on or before 

July 25, 2022.

NOI Notification of Inquiry 

II. Background, Purpose and Purpose 

On May 3, 2022, the Coast Guard 

published a notification of inquiry (NOI) 

in the Federal Register (87 FR 26145) to 

solicit public comments on proposing a 

change to the drawbridge operating 

regulations for the Florida East Coast 

(FEC) Railroad Bridge, mile 7.4, and the 

SR 707 (Dixie Hwy) Bridge, mile 7.5, 

across the Okeechobee Waterway 

(OWW), at Stuart, Florida. Comments 

and related material were to reach the 

Coast Guard on or before July 5, 2022. 

As of May 27, 2022, 16 comments were 

received. These comments will be 

addressed with the Supplemental NOI 

comments. 

On May 26, 2022, the Honorable Brian 

Mast requested the NOI be ‘‘recalled, 

rewritten, and republished’’ based on 

concerns the NOI failed to address all 

recommendations included in the 2018 

Waterways Analysis and Management 

System (WAMS) study. The Coast Guard 

will publish an ex parte 

communications memorandum via the 

Federal Register using docket number 

USCG–2022–0222. 

This Supplemental NOI is being 

provided to clarify the Coast Guard’s 

intent in gathering information under 

this NOI. The Coast Guard is seeking 

information regarding usage and 

equitable access to the waterway under 

the FEC Railroad Bridge, mile 7.4, and 

the SR 707 (Dixie Hwy) Bridge, mile 7.5, 

across the OWW, at Stuart, Florida. For 

drawbridge operating regulations, the 

Coast Guard interprets ‘‘equitable’’ 

usage as access to the waterway which 

meets the reasonable needs of 

navigation while balancing the needs of 

competing modes of transportation. 

III. Discussion on Comments and 

Changes 

As noted above, a request was made 

to recall, rewrite, and republish the NOI 

based on an apparent lack of objectivity 

regarding the Coast Guard’s intent as to 

mariners’ access to the waterway. The 

Coast Guard has updated the summary 

and revised question six of the original 

NOI to avoid perceived bias by the Coast 

Guard. A Supplemental NOI will be 

published in the Federal Register. 

IV. Information Requested 

To aid us in further developing a 

proposed rule, we seek responses from 

waterway users to the following 

questions: 

(1) Do you currently transit through 

the FEC Railroad Bridge crossing the 

Okeechobee Waterway, mile 7.4, at 

Stuart, Florida? 

(2) How often do you transit this 

waterway? 

(3) If railway traffic impedes your 

navigation of this area, how long are you 

normally delayed? 

(4) How would you propose to 

regulate the balance of railway and 

maritime traffic in this area? 

(5) What challenges have you 

experienced when transiting this area 

due to these bridges and/or railway 

activity? 

(6) At what frequency and duration 

should the drawbridge openings occur 

in order to meet the needs of 

navigation? 

(7) Should the SR 707 (Dixie Hwy) 

Bridge opening schedule mirror the 

operating schedule of the FEC Railroad 

Bridge? 

V. Public Participation and Request for 

Comments 

We encourage you to submit 

comments in response to this notice of 

inquiry through the Federal Decision 

Making Portal at https://
