14 CFR Part 71
[Docket No. FAA-2010-0354, Airspace Docket No. 10-AAL-10]
Establishment of Class E Airspace; Port Clarence, AK
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule; delay of effective date, correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action changes the effective date for the establishment
of Class E airspace at Port Clarence Coast Guard Station (CGS) Airport,
Port Clarence, AK. The charting of this airspace has been delayed;
therefore the effective date of the establishment of the Class E
airspace area also must be delayed. A minor correction to a geographic
coordinate also will be made.
DATES: This correction is effective 0901 UTC, May 5, 2011, and the
effective date of FR Doc. 2010-25479, published on October 12, 2010 (75
FR 62457) and corrected by FR Doc. 2010-32293, published on December
27, 2010 (75 FR 62457) is delayed to 0901 UTC, May 5. 2011.
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 7400.9 and publication of
conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
Federal Register Document FAA-2010-0354, Airspace Docket No. 10-
AAL-10, published on Monday, December 27, 2010 [75 FR 81110] makes a
correction to the boundary description that establishes Class E
airspace at Port Clarence CGS Airport, Port Clarence, AK. Subsequent to
publication, the FAA's Aeronautical Products office stated that more
time was needed to chart the airspace. Therefore, this action will
delay the effective date of January 13, 2011, to May 5, 2011, to allow
better coordination for the charting of this airspace. An error also
was discovered in the regulatory text for a latitudinal coordinate.
This action corrects this error.
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.
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. Because this is a routine matter that
will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule will not have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle 1, 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 1, section 40103, Sovereignty and use of
airspace. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing
regulations to ensure the safe and efficient use of the navigable
airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because
it creates Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft
executing instrument procedures for the Port Clarence CGS Airport and
represents the FAA's
[[Page 3012]]
continuing effort to safely and efficiently use the navigable airspace.
