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 removes 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at 

Stroudsburg-Pocono Airport, East 

Stroudsburg, PA, due to the closing of 

the airport. 

History 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking in the Federal 

Register (87 FR 20793, April 8, 2022) for 

Docket No. FAA–2022–0332 to remove 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at 

Stroudsburg-Pocono Airport, East 

Stroudsburg, PA. 

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 

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 E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in FAA 

Order JO 7400.11. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends 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 routes, and 

reporting points. 

The Rule 

The FAA is amending 14 CFR part 71 

by removing Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Stroudsburg-Pocono Airport, East 

Stroudsburg, PA, as the airport has 

closed. Therefore, the airspace is no 

longer necessary. This action enhances 

the safety and management of controlled 

airspace within the national airspace 

system. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in Paragraph 6005 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 E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in the 

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. 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 an 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

The FAA published a final rule in the 

Federal Register (87 FR 32982; June 1, 

2022) for Docket No. FAA–2022–0041, 

which established Class E airspace 

beginning at 700 feet above the surface 

at Limon Municipal Airport, CO. The 

effective date listed in the final rule was 

incorrect. The final rule stated the 

effective date of 0901 UTC, July 14, 

2022. However, the final rule was 

submitted too late to be effective on July 

14, 2022, and should have listed the 

effective date as 0901 UTC, September 

8, 2022. This action corrects this error. 

The Class E5 airspace designation in 

this document is published in paragraph 

6005 of FAA Order JO 7400.11F, dated 

August 10, 2021, and effective 

September 15, 2021, which is
