35896 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 114 / Tuesday, June 14, 2022 / Rules and Regulations 

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 service routes, 

and reporting points. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 71 

amends the Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Baldwin Municipal Airport, Baldwin, 

MI, by removing the White Cloud VOR 

and associated extension from the 

airspace legal description; and updates 

the geographic coordinates of the airport 

to coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical 

database. 

This action is due to an airspace 

review conducted as part of the 

decommissioning of the White Cloud 

VOR, which provided navigation 

information for the instrument 

procedures at this airport, as part of the 

VOR MON Program. 

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 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– 

6.5.a. 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.

Title 49 of the United States Code. 

Subtitle I, Section 106 describes the

Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, 

describes in more detail the scope of the

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 the 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at Graham 

Municipal Airport, Graham, TX, to 

support instrument flight rule 

operations at this airport.

proposed rulemaking in the Federal 

Register (87 FR 21066; April 11, 2022) 

for Docket No. FAA–2022–0311 to 

amend the Class E airspace at Graham, 

TX. Interested parties were invited to
