14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2020-0935; Airspace Docket No. 20-ANE-4]
RIN 2120-AA66

Establishment of Class E Airspace; Calais, ME

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action amends Class E airspace extending upward from 700 
feet above the surface for Calais Regional Heliport, Calais, ME. The 
FAA discovered that necessary language was inadvertently omitted to the 
description of the airspace that excluded airspace outside of the 
United States.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, April 22, 2021. The Director of the Federal 
Register approves this incorporation by reference action under Title 1 
Code of Federal Regulations part 51, subject to the annual revision of 
FAA Order 7400.11 and publication of conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Rule

    This amendment to 14 CFR part 71 amends Class E airspace for Calais 
Regional Heliport, Calais, ME, by correcting the airspace description. 
The description is amended from `That airspace extending upward from 
700 feet above the surface of the earth within a 6-mile radius of 
Calais Regional Heliport' to `That airspace extending upward from 700 
feet above the surface of the earth within a 6-mile radius of Calais 
Regional Heliport excluding that airspace outside of the United 
States'. Accordingly, since this is an administrative change, and does 
not affect the boundaries, altitudes, or operating requirements of the 
airspace, notice and public procedures under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are 
unnecessary.
    Class E airspace designations are published in Paragraph 6005, of 
FAA Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020, and effective September 15, 
2020, 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 Order.

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 so 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.
