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 amends the legal descriptions of Class E airspace at Grant County 
International Airport, Moses Lake, WA, and Olympia Regional Airport, 
Olympia, WA, to remove the NOTAM part-time status.

History

    The FAA Aeronautical Information Services branch found the Class E 
airspace designated as an extension to a Class D area at Grant County 
International Airport, Moses Lake, WA, and Olympia Regional Airport, 
Olympia, WA, as published in FAA Order 7400.11A, Airspace Designations 
and Reporting Points, does not require part-time status. The FAA also 
found the airport names for Grant County International Airport 
(formerly Grant County Airport) and Olympia Regional Airport (formerly 
Olympia Airport) have changed. Additionally, after a review, the FAA 
found the geographic coordinates listed in Grant County International 
Airport's Class D and Class E airspace legal descriptions for Grant 
County International Airport, Moses Lake VOR/DME, and Fairchild AFB, do 
not match the FAA's aeronautical database.
    Also, an editorial change is made to the Class D and Class E 
airspace legal descriptions replacing Airport/Facility Directory with 
the term Chart Supplement, and adds the city name Spokane to Fairchild 
AFB listed under the header for Grant County International Airport in 
Class E 700 foot airspace.
    Class D and Class E airspace designations are published in 
paragraph 5000, 6002, 6004, and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order 
7400.11A dated August 3, 2016, and effective September 15, 2016, 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 7400.11A, Airspace Designations and 
Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2016, and effective September 15, 
2016. FAA Order 7400.11A is publicly available as listed in the 
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists Class A, 
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and 
reporting points.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71 by eliminating the following language from the legal 
description of Class E airspace designated as an extension to a Class D 
or Class E surface area at Grant County International Airport, Moses 
Lake, WA, and Olympia Regional Airport, Olympia, ``This Class E 
airspace is effective during the specific dates and times established 
in advance by a Notice to Airmen. The effective date and time will 
thereafter be continuously published in the Airport/Facility 
Directory.''
    Also, this action updates the airport names for Grant County 
International Airport (formerly Grant County Airport) and Olympia 
Regional Airport (formerly Olympia Airport). Additionally, this action 
updates the geographic coordinates for Grant County International 
Airport, Moses Lake VOR/DME, and Fairchild AFB as listed in the Grant 
County International Airport Class D and Class E airspace legal

[[Page 18984]]

descriptions. Lastly, this action replaces the outdated term Airport/
Facility Directory with the term Chart Supplement in the Class D and 
Class E airspace legal descriptions, and adds the city name Spokane to 
Fairchild AFB listed under the header for Grant County International 
Airport in Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the 
surface.
    This action is an administrative change and does not affect the 
boundaries, altitudes, or operating requirements of the airspace. 
Therefore, notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) is 
unnecessary.

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 is 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 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and 
Procedures,'' paragraph 5-6.5a. 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.
