This action establishes Class E airspace designated as an extension to a Class E surface area, establishes Class E en route airspace, and modifies Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at St. George Regional Airport (formerly St. George Municipal Airport), St. George, UT. After a review of the airspace, the FAA found redesign necessary to support new instrument flight rules (IFR) standard instrument approach procedures and en route operations where the Federal airway structure is inadequate, for the safety and management of aircraft operations at the airport. Also, this action updates the airport name from St. George Municipal Airport, to St. George Regional Airport, in the associated Class E airspace areas.

14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2016-8162; Airspace Docket No. 17-ANM-12]


Establishment of Class E Airspace, and Amendment of Class E 
Airspace; St. George, UT

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action establishes Class E airspace designated as an 
extension to a Class E surface area, establishes Class E en route 
airspace, and modifies Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet 
above the surface at St. George Regional Airport (formerly St. George 
Municipal Airport), St. George, UT. After a review of the airspace, the 
FAA found redesign necessary to support new instrument flight rules 
(IFR) standard instrument approach procedures and en route operations 
where the Federal airway structure is inadequate, for the safety and 
management of aircraft operations at the airport. Also, this action 
updates the airport name from St. George Municipal Airport, to St. 
George Regional Airport, in the associated Class E airspace areas.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, October 12, 2017. 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:

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 Class E airspace and modifies Class E airspace at St. 
George Regional Airport, St. George, UT, to support IFR operations in 
standard instrument approach procedures at the airport.

History

    On April 20, 2017, the FAA published in the Federal Register (82 FR 
18594) Docket FAA-2016-8162 a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to 
establish Class E airspace designated as an extension, establish Class 
E en route airspace, and modify Class E airspace extending upward from 
700 feet above the surface at St. George Regional Airport, St. George, 
UT. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking 
effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No 
comments were received.
    Subsequent to publication, the FAA discovered the references to 
Class D airspace at St. George, UT, were in error. Those references are 
removed from the rule. No Class D airspace exists or is proposed at St. 
George, UT.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6002, 
6004, 6005, and 6006, respectively of FAA Order 7400.11A, dated August 
3, 2016, and effective September 15, 2016, which is incorporated by 
reference in 14 CFR part 71.1. The Class E airspace designation 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 amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71 establishes Class E airspace designated as an extension to a 
Class E surface area, establishes Class E domestic en route airspace 
upward from 1,200 feet above the surface, and modifies Class E airspace 
extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at St. George Regional 
Airport, St. George, UT. This airspace redesign is necessary for the 
safety and management of aircraft operations at the airport and to 
support en route operations where the Federal airway structure is 
inadequate. Also, this action updates the airport name from St. George 
Municipal Airport, to St. George Regional Airport, in the associated 
Class E airspace areas.
    Class E airspace designated as an extension to a Class E surface 
area is established within 1 mile each side of the St. George Regional 
Airport 030[deg] bearing from the airport 4.5-mile radius to 7.7 miles 
northeast of the airport, and within 2 miles each side of the airport 
203[deg] bearing from the 4.5-mile radius to 8.5 miles southwest of the 
airport. This controlled airspace supports instrument flight rules 
(IFR) operations for standard instrument approach aircraft operating 
below 1,000 feet above the surface.
    Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface 
is

[[Page 36078]]

reduced to a 4.5-mile radius (from a 8.1-mile radius) of the airport, 
and within 2.5 miles each side of the airport 203[deg] bearing (from 4 
miles each side of the 200[deg] bearing) of the airport extending from 
the airport 4.5-mile radius (from a 8.1-mile radius) to 13.9 miles 
southwest (from 20 miles southwest) of the airport, and within 2.2 
miles (from 4 miles) each side of the airport 030[deg] bearing 
extending from the airport 4.5-mile radius (from a 8.1-mile radius) to 
21.6 miles northeast (from 25.8 miles) of the airport. The existing 
1,200 foot airspace is removed since this would duplicate the en route 
airspace described below.
    Class E en route airspace is established for the safety and 
management of IFR point-to-point operations outside of the established 
airway structure, and Air Traffic Control vectoring services.

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, will 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.
