This action modifies Class D airspace, Class E airspace designated as a surface area, and Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface, and removes Class E airspace designated as an extension to Class D or Class E surface area at Jackson County Airport-Reynolds Field, Jackson MI. This action is due to the decommissioning of the Jackson VHF omnidirectional range (VOR), which provided navigation guidance for the instrument procedures to this airport. The VOR is being decommissioned as part of the VOR Minimum Operational Network (MON) Program. The name and the geographic coordinates of the airport are also updated to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database. Additionally, this action makes an editorial change to the airspace legal descriptions replacing ``Airport/Facility Directory'' with the term ``Chart Supplement.''

Amendment of Class D and Class E Airspace and Revocation of Class 
E Airspace; Jackson, MI

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action modifies Class D airspace, Class E airspace 
designated as a surface area, and Class E airspace extending upward 
from 700 feet above the surface, and removes Class E airspace 
designated as an extension to Class D or Class E surface area at 
Jackson County Airport-Reynolds Field, Jackson MI. This action is due 
to the decommissioning of the Jackson VHF omnidirectional range (VOR), 
which provided navigation guidance for the instrument procedures to 
this airport. The VOR is being decommissioned as part of the VOR 
Minimum Operational Network (MON) Program. The name and the geographic 
coordinates of the airport are also updated to coincide with the FAA's 
aeronautical database. Additionally, this action makes an editorial 
change to the airspace legal descriptions replacing ``Airport/Facility 
Directory'' with the term ``Chart Supplement.''

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, February 28, 2019. 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 amends Class D airspace, Class E airspace designated as a surface 
area, and Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the 
surface, and removes Class E airspace designated as an extension to 
Class D or Class E surface area at Jackson County Airport-Reynolds 
Field, Jackson MI to support instrument flight rules (IFR) operations 
at this airport.

History

    The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal 
Register (83 FR 19987; May 7, 2018) for Docket No. FAA-2017-1187 to 
amend Class D airspace, Class E airspace designated as a surface area, 
and Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface, 
and remove Class E airspace designated as an extension to Class D or 
Class E surface area at Jackson County Airport-Reynolds Field, Jackson 
MI. 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 of FAA Order 7400.11C, dated August 13, 
2018, and effective September 15, 2018, 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 7400.11C, Airspace Designations and 
Reporting Points, dated August 13, 2018, and effective September 15, 
2018. FAA Order 7400.11C is publicly available as listed in the 
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11C 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 the Class D airspace at Jackson County Airport-Reynolds 
Field, Jackson, MI, by updating the geographic coordinates of the 
airport to coincide with the FAA's aeronautic database and makes an 
editorial change to the airspace legal description replacing ``Airport/
Facility Directory'' with the term ``Chart Supplement'';
    Modifies the Class E airspace designated as a surface area at 
Jackson County Airport-Reynolds Field (formerly Jackson County-Reynolds 
Field) by removing all airspace extensions from the 4-mile radius in 
the airspace legal description, updates the name and geographic 
coordinates of the airport to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical 
database, and makes an editorial change to the airspace legal 
description replacing ``Airport/Facility Directory'' with the term 
``Chart Supplement'';
    Removes the Class E airspace designated as an extension to Class D 
or Class E airspace designated as a surface area at Jackson County-
Reynolds Field, MI, as it is no longer required; and
    Modifies the Class E airspace area extending upward from 700 feet 
above the surface to within a 6.5-mile radius (decreased from a 7-mile 
radius) of Jackson County Airport-Reynolds Field (formerly Jackson 
County-Reynolds Field), removes the Jackson VOR/DME from the airspace 
legal description, and updates the name and geographic coordinates to 
coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database.
    Airspace reconfiguration is necessary due to the decommissioning of 
the Jackson VOR, which provided navigation guidance for the instrument 
procedures to this airport, as part of the VOR MON Program and to bring 
the airspace in compliance with FAA Order 7400.2L, Procedures for 
Handling Airspace Matters. This action enhances safety and the 
management of IFR operations at this 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, 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 5-6.5.a. 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.
