SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, 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 establishes controlled airspace at McNary Field, Salem, OR.

History

On May 1, 2015, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice
of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to modify Class D airspace, Class E
surface area airspace, Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface, and remove Class E surface area airspace designated
as an extension at McNary Field, Salem, OR (80 FR 24858). Interested
parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by
submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments
were received.
Class D and Class E airspace designations are published in
paragraph 5000, 6002, 6004, and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order
7400.9Y, dated August 6, 2014, and effective September 15, 2014, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and Class E
airspace designations listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

This document amends FAA Order 7400.9Y, airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2014, and effective September 15,
2014. FAA Order 7400.9Y is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this final rule. FAA Order 7400.9Y lists Class A,
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Rule

This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 modifies Class D airspace, Class E surface area airspace, Class
E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface, and
removes Class E surface area airspace as an extension at McNary Field,
Salem, OR. A review of the airspace revealed an increase and
reconfiguration of the airspace is needed for IFR operations due to
cancellation of the Turno non-directional radio beacon (NDB) and
cancellation of the NDB approach. Class D airspace and Class E surface
area airspace extends upward from the surface to and including 2,700
feet within a 4-mile radius northeast of McNary Field, within a 6.2-
mile radius southeast of the airport, and within an 8.1-mile radius
southeast to northwest of the airport, excluding airspace within 1.2
miles of Independence State Airport, OR. Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface is amended to within a 6.5-mile
radius northeast of McNary Field, within an 8.2-mile radius southeast
of the airport, and within a 9.1-mile radius southeast to northwest of
the airport, excluding airspace within 1.2 miles of Independence State
Airport, OR. This action enhances the safety and management of
controlled airspace within the NAS.

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 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 and 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.

Environmental Review

The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures,'' paragraph 311a. This airspace action is not expected to
cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment
