Authority for This Rulemaking
The Rule
The FAAs 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 agencys 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 revokes the Class E surface airspace at Tri-County Regional Airport, Lone Rock, WI, and amends the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Tri-County Regional Airport and Richland Airport, Richland Center, WI, which is contained within the Lone Rock, WI, airspace legal description, to support instrument flight rule operations at this airport.

This amendment to 14 CFR part 71:
Revokes the Class E surface airspace at Tri-County Regional Airport, Lone Rock, WI, as the weather reporting and communications requirements of FAA
Order 7400.2M, Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters, are no longer being met to retain this airspace;
Amends the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface to within a 6.5-mile increased from a 6.4-mile radius of TriCounty Regional Airport, Lone Rock, WI; removes the city associated with the airport to comply with changes in FAA
Order 7400.2M; and updates the geographic coordinates of the airport to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical database;
And amends the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface to within a 6.4-mile decreased from a 7.3-miles radius of Richland Airport, Richland Center, WI, which is contained within the Lone Rock, WI, airspace legal description;
and updates the name previously Richland Center Airport and geographic coordinates of the airport to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical database.
This action is the result of airspace reviews caused by the decommissioning of the Lone Rock VOR, which provided navigation information for the instrument procedures these airports, as part of the VOR MON Program.
FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is published yearly and effective on September 15.

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.
