SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    The FAA received a request from the National Aeronautical 
Navigation Services (NANS) to update the geographic coordinates of 
Brewton Municipal Airport, Brewton, AL. This action makes the 
adjustment. Accordingly, since this is an administrative change, and 
does not involve a change in the dimensions or operating requirements 
of that airspace, notice and public procedures under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) 
are unnecessary.
    The Class E airspace designations are published in Paragraph 6005 
of FAA order 7400.9U, dated August 18, 2010, and effective September 
15, 2010, 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.
    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 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.
    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 amends controlled airspace at Brewton, AL.
