This action modifies Class E airspace designated as an extension to a Class D or Class E surface area at Roberts Field, Redmond, OR, by removing the Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) part-time status, and modifying Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at the airport. Also, the geographic coordinates for Roberts Field in the associated Class D and E airspace areas are amended to match the FAA's aeronautical database. These changes are necessary to accommodate airspace redesign for the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations within the National Airspace System. 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.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action modifies Class E airspace designated as an 
extension to a Class D or Class E surface area at Roberts Field, 
Redmond, OR, by removing the Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) part-time status, 
and modifying Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the 
surface at the airport. Also, the geographic coordinates for Roberts 
Field in the associated Class D and E airspace areas are amended to 
match the FAA's aeronautical database. These changes are necessary to 
accommodate airspace redesign for the safety and management of 
Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations within the National Airspace 
System. 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.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, December 7, 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 modifies Class D and Class E airspace at Roberts Field, Redmond, 
OR to accommodate airspace redesign for the safety and management of 
Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations within the National Airspace 
System.

History

    On June 23, 2017, the FAA published in the Federal Register (82 FR 
28603) Docket FAA-2017-0390, a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 
that proposed to modify Class E airspace designated as an extension to 
a Class D or Class E surface area at Roberts Field, Redmond, OR, by 
removing the Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) part-time status, and proposed to 
modify Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the 
surface at the airport. Also, the geographic coordinates for Roberts 
Field in the associated Class D and E airspace areas would be amended 
to match the FAA's aeronautical database. 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 E airspace designations are published in paragraph 
5000, 6002, 6004, and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.11B, dated 
August 3, 2017, and effective September 15, 2017, which is incorporated 
by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and 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 7400.11B, Airspace Designations and 
Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15, 
2017. FAA Order 7400.11B is publicly available as listed in the 
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11B lists Class A, 
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and 
reporting points.

The Rule

    The FAA is amending Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71 by modifying Class E airspace designated as an extension to a 
Class D or Class E surface area at Roberts Field, Redmond, OR, by 
shortening the segment to within 8.5 miles (from 13.5 miles) of the 
airport. This action also removes the part-time NOTAM language that 
reads ``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.''
    Additionally, this action modifies Class E airspace extending 
upward from 700 feet above the surface to reduce the area east (to 
within 9.6 miles, from 11.5 miles) and southeast (to within 13.1

[[Page 46895]]

miles, from 15 miles) of the airport, and expand the area southwest (to 
within 10.5 miles, from 7.6 miles) of the airport.
    Also, this action updates the geographic coordinates for Roberts 
Field and replaces the outdated term Airport/Facility Directory with 
the term Chart Supplement in the Class D and Class E airspace legal 
descriptions. Further, this action makes an editorial edit to the Class 
D legal description by reinstating the letters ``MSL'' to signify 5,600 
feet mean sea level. This airspace redesign is necessary for the safety 
and management of IFR operations at the airport.

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.
