SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section

286(d) of the Immigration and

Nationality Act (Act) directs the

Attorney General to charge and collect

a user fee from each individual arriving

in the United States aboard a

commercial aircraft or commercial

vessel from foreign locations effective

December 1, 1986. Individuals arriving

from Mexico, Canada, and the adjacent

islands by means other than commercial

aircraft are exempt from the fee. The

1994 Appropriations Act for the

Department of Justice, Public Law 103–

121, changed the Immigration User Fee

from $5.00 to $6.00 per passenger

inspected. Fee collections are used to

provide immigration inspection services

for commercial aircraft and commercial

vessels; detect fraudulent documents

used by air and sea passengers travelling

to the United States; detain and deport

excludable aliens arriving on

commercial aircraft and commercial

vessels; expand and operate information

systems for non-immigrant control and

debt collection; and provide necessary

support for operations to ensure that the

objectives of the program are achieved.

The 1994 Appropriations Act

authorized the use of the IUFA to

provide detention and deportation

services for excludable aliens who have

attempted to enter the United States

illegally through avoidance of

inspectoin at air and sea ports-of-entry,

and to provide exclusion and asylum

proceedings at air and sea ports-of-entry

for excludable aliens arriving on

commercial aircraft and vessels and for

any excludable aliens who have

attempted to enter the United States

illegally through avoidance of

inspection at air and sea ports-of-entry.

Section 286(h) of the Act requires the

Attorney General to submit a bi-yearly

report to the Congress concerning the

status of the IUFA. Before the report is

submitted, the Attorney General must

present a summary of the account’s

status for review and public comment.

As of September 30, 1994, the status

of the account is as follows:

On February 15, 1994, INS published

proposed changes in regulations (59 FR

7227) to amend 8 CFR 286 to comply

with 1991 and 1994 Department of

Justice Appropriations Acts. In addition,

the proposed rule included changes in
3108 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 9 / Friday, January 13, 1995 / Proposed Rules

remittance and statement procedures

and proposed other amendments and

technical corrections. Public comments

were received, evaluated, and

considered, and a final rule was

published on September 28, 1994 (59 FR

49347). The rule was effective on

October 28, 1994. No other regulatory

changes are contemplated.

By this notice, the public may provide

any proposals to revise 8 CFR part 286

on matters which may be changed by

regulation, and may provide comments

on the status of the IUFA before a report

is submitted to the Congress.

14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 94–AWA–9]

Proposed Modification of the Roanoke

Regional/Woodrum Field, VA, and

Rochester-Monroe County Airport, NY,

Class C Airspace Areas and Proposed

Establishment of the Roanoke

Regional/Woodrum Field, VA, Class E

Airspace Area

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

SUMMARY: This proposed rule would

modify the Class C airspace areas at

Roanoke Regional/Woodrum Field, VA,

and Rochester-Monroe County Airport,

NY. The effective hours of the Roanoke

Regional/Woodrum Field, VA, Class C

airspace area would be amended to

coincide with the associated radar

approach control facility’s hours of

operation. Class C airspace areas are

predicated on an operational air traffic

control tower (ATCT) serviced by a

radar approach control facility. In

addition, this action proposes to

establish Class E airspace at Roanoke

Regional/Woodrum Field, VA, when the

associated radar approach control

facility is not in operation. This

proposed action would also change the

name of the Rochester-Monroe County

Airport, NY, to Greater Rochester

International Airport, NY. This proposal

would not change the designated

boundaries or altitudes of these Class C

airspace areas.

DATES: Comments must be received on

or before January 26, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Send comments on the

proposal in triplicate to: Federal

Aviation Administration, Office of the

Chief Counsel, Attention: Rules Docket

The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to part 71 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to

modify the Class C airspace areas at

Rochester-Monroe County, Airport, NY,

and Roanoke Regional/Woodrum Field,

VA. This action proposes to change the

name of the Rochester-Monroe County

Airport, NY, to Greater Rochester

International Airport, NY. In addition,

this proposed action would modify the

Roanoke Regional/Woodrum Field, VA,

Class C airspace area by amending the

area’s effective hours to coincide with

the associated radar approach control

facility’s hours of operation. This action

also proposes to establish Class E

airspace at Roanoke Regional/Woodrum

Field, VA, when the associated radar

approach control facility is not in

operation. Establishing Class E airspace

is necessary to provide controlled

airspace for instrument approaches.

Class C and Class E airspace

designations are published in

paragraphs 4000 and 6002, respectively,

of FAA Order 7400.9B dated July 18,

1994, and effective September 16, 1994,

which is incorporated by reference in 14

CFR 71.1. The Class C and Class E

airspace designations listed in this

document would be published

subsequently in the Order.

The FAA has determined that this

proposed regulation only involves an

established body of technical

regulations that need frequent and

routine amendments 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 so minimal. Since this is a
