Authority for This Rulemaking 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the United States Code 

(U.S.C.). Subtitle I, Section 106 

describes the authority of the FAA 

Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation 

Programs, describes in more detail the

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 

modify Class E airspace at RexburgMadison County Airport, ID, to support 

IFR operations at the airport.

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document proposes to amend 

FAA Order JO 7400.11F, 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 modifying the 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at RexburgMadison County Airport, ID. North and 

south extensions to the existing Class E 

airspace are needed to ensure 

containment of arriving IFR operations 

below 1,500 feet above the surface and 

departing IFR operations until they 

reach 1,200 feet above the surface at the 

airport. 

Additionally, the FAA proposes an 

administrative modification to the 

airport’s legal description. The 

geographic coordinates should be 

updated to match the FAA’s database. 

The Class E5 airspace designation is 

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 

designation listed in this document will 

be published subsequently in FAA 

Order JO 7400.11, which is published 

yearly and becomes effective on 

September 15. 

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

38306 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 123 / Tuesday, June 28, 2022 / Proposed Rules 

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.
