58514 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 195 / Tuesday, October 7, 2008 / Proposed Rules 

11–2A, Notice of Proposed Rulemaking 

Distribution System, which describes 

the application procedure. 

The Proposal 

This action proposes to amend Title 

14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 

CFR), Part 71 by establishing Class E 

airspace for SIAP IFR operations at 

South Texas International Airport, 

Edinburg, TX. The area would be 

depicted on appropriate aeronautical 

charts. 

Class E airspace areas are published 

in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 

7400.9R, dated August 15, 2007, and 

effective September 15, 2007, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designation 

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 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 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, will not have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. The FAA’s authority to 

issue rules regarding aviation safety is 

found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. 

Subtitle 1, 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 

establish controlled airspace at South 

Texas International Airport, Edinburg, 

TX.

Approval and Promulgation of Air 

Quality Implementation Plans; Texas; 

Reasonable Further Progress Plan, 

Motor Vehicle Emissions Budgets and 

Revised 2002 Emissions Inventory; 

Dallas/Fort Worth Ozone 

Nonattainment Area 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a 

revision to the Texas State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) to meet the 

Reasonable Further Progress (RFP) 

requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA) 

for the Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) 

moderate 1997 8-hour ozone 

nonattainment area. EPA is also 

proposing to approve the RFP motor 

vehicle emissions budgets (MVEBs) and 

a revised 2002 Base Year Emission 

Inventory associated with the revision. 

EPA is proposing to approve the SIP 

revision because it satisfies the RFP, 

RFP transportation conformity, and 

Emissions Inventory requirements for 

1997 8-hour ozone nonattainment areas 

classified as moderate, and 

demonstrates further progress in 

reducing ozone precursors. EPA is 

proposing to approve the revision 

pursuant to section 110 and part D of 

the CAA and EPA’s regulations. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

received on or before November 6, 2008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

final rules section of this Federal 

Register, EPA is approving the State’s 

SIP submittal as a direct final rule 

without prior proposal because the 

Agency views this as a noncontroversial 

submittal and anticipates no adverse 

comments. A detailed rationale for the 

approval is set forth in the direct final 

rule. If no relevant adverse comments 

are received in response to this action, 

no further activity is contemplated. If 

EPA receives adverse comments, the 

direct final rule will be withdrawn and 

all public comments received will be 

addressed in a subsequent final rule 

based on this proposed rule. EPA will 

not institute a second comment period. 

Any parties interested in commenting 

on this action should do so at this time. 

Please note that if EPA receives adverse 

comment on an amendment, paragraph, 

or section of this rule and if that 

provision may be severed from the 

remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt 

as final those provisions of the rule that 

are not the subject of an adverse 

comment.

direct final rule, which is located in the 

rules section of this Federal Register.
