This action proposes to modify Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Carmi Municipal Airport, Carmi, IL; De Kalb Taylor Municipal Airport, De Kalb, IL; Harrisburg- Raleigh Airport, Harrisburg, IL; Kewanne Municipal Airport, Kewanne, IL; Litchfield Municipal Airport, Litchfield, IL; Edgar County Airport, Paris, IL; and Taylorville Municipal Airport, Taylorville, IL. Decommissioning of non-directional radio beacons (NDB), cancellation of NDB approaches, and implementation of area navigation (RNAV) procedures have made this action necessary for the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the above airports. This action would also update the geographic coordinates of Carmi Municipal Airport, De Kalb Taylor Municipal Airport, Harrisburg-Raleigh Airport, Litchfield Municipal Airport, Edgar County Airport, and Taylorville Municipal Airport to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical database.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: This action proposes to modify Class E airspace extending 
upward from 700 feet above the surface at Carmi Municipal Airport, 
Carmi, IL; De Kalb Taylor Municipal Airport, De Kalb, IL; Harrisburg-
Raleigh Airport, Harrisburg, IL; Kewanne Municipal Airport, Kewanne, 
IL; Litchfield Municipal Airport, Litchfield, IL; Edgar County Airport, 
Paris, IL; and Taylorville Municipal Airport, Taylorville, IL. 
Decommissioning of non-directional radio beacons (NDB), cancellation of 
NDB approaches, and implementation of area navigation (RNAV) procedures 
have made this action necessary for the safety and management of 
Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the above airports. This 
action would also update the geographic coordinates of Carmi Municipal 
Airport, De Kalb Taylor Municipal Airport, Harrisburg-Raleigh Airport, 
Litchfield Municipal Airport, Edgar County Airport, and Taylorville 
Municipal Airport to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical database.

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 would amend Class E airspace at Carmi Municipal Airport, Carmi, 
IL; De Kalb Taylor Municipal Airport, De Kalb, IL; Harrisburg-Raleigh 
Airport, Harrisburg, IL; Kewanne Municipal Airport, Kewanne, IL; 
Litchfield Municipal Airport, Litchfield, IL; Edgar County Airport, 
Paris, IL; and Taylorville Municipal Airport, Taylorville, IL.

Comments Invited

    Interested parties are invited to participate in this proposed 
rulemaking by submitting such written data, views, or arguments, as 
they may desire. Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the 
views and suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing 
reasoned regulatory decisions on the proposal. Comments are 
specifically invited on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic, 
environmental, and energy-related aspects of the proposal. 
Communications should identify both docket numbers and be submitted in 
triplicate to the address listed above. Commenters wishing the FAA to 
acknowledge receipt of their comments on this notice must submit with 
those comments a self-addressed, stamped postcard on which the 
following statement is made: ``Comments to Docket No. FAA-2016-6985/
Airspace Docket No. 16-AGL-16.'' The postcard will be date/time stamped 
and returned to the commenter.

Availability of NPRMs

comments received, and any final disposition in person in the Dockets 
Office (see the ADDRESSES section for the address and phone number) 
between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except federal 
holidays. An informal docket may also be examined during normal 
business hours at the Federal Aviation Administration, Air Traffic 
Organization, Central Service Center, Operations Support Group, 10101

Availability and Summary of Documents Proposed for Incorporation by 
Reference

    This document would amend FAA Order 7400.9Z, Airspace Designations 
and Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2015, and effective September 15, 
2015. FAA Order 7400.9Z is publicly available as listed in the 
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.9Z lists Class A, B, 
C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and reporting 
points.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal 
Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by modifying Class E airspace extending 
upward from 700 feet above the surface at the following airports:
    Within a 6.4-mile radius of Carmi Municipal Airport, Carmi, IL, and 
updating the geographic coordinates of this airport to coincide with 
the FAAs aeronautical database; Within a 6.8-mile radius of De Kalb 
Taylor Municipal Airport, De Kalb, IL, and updating the geographic 
coordinates of this airport to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical 
database; Within a 6.5-mile radius of Harrisburg-Raleigh Airport, 
Harrisburg, IL, and updating the geographic coordinates of this airport 
to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical database; Within a 6.5-mile 
radius of Kewanne Municipal Airport, Kewanne, IL; Within a 6.7-mile 
radius of Litchfield Municipal Airport, Litchfield, IL, and updating 
the geographic coordinates of this airport to coincide with the FAAs 
aeronautical database; Within a 6.4-mile radius of Edgar County 
Airport, Paris, IL, and updating the geographic

[[Page 43126]]

coordinates of this airport to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical 
database; and Within a 6.5-mile radius of Taylorville Municipal 
Airport, Taylorville, IL, and updating the geographic coordinates of 
this airport to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical database. These 
airspace reconfigurations are necessary due to the decommissioning of 
NDBs, cancellation of NDB approaches, and implementation of RNAV 
standard instrument approach procedures at the above airports. 
Controlled airspace is necessary for the safety and management of IFR 
operations at these airports.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of 
FAA Order 7400.9Z, dated August 6, 2015, and effective September 15, 
2015, 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, 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, would not have a 
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities 
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in 
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies 
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
