Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11E, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated July 21, 2020, and effective September 15, 2020. FAA Order 7400.11E is publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11E lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and reporting points.
The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations 14 CFR part 71 by establishing Class E
airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface at Hughes Airport, Hughes, AK.
The Class E airspace would be established within a 3.8-mile radius of the airport and within an area 2 miles each side of the 194 bearing extending from the airport 6.4 miles south. This area would protect aircraft on approach to runway 36 as they descend through 1,500 feet above ground level AGL. In addition, an extension in the shape of a dogleg would be established 1.8 miles each side of the 14 bearing extending from the 3.8-mile radius to 6 miles north of the airport and then 1.8 miles each side of the 39 bearing from a point in space, Lat. 660814 N, long. 1541217
W, forming an angle that extends from the 3.8-mile radius northeast 9.5 miles from the airport. This section would protect aircraft on approach to runway 18 descending through 1,500 feet AGL
and those aircraft on departure until reaching 1,200 feet AGL.
Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA
Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020, and effective September 15, 2020, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
part 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in this document

will be published subsequently in the Order.
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 will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated, would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
Environmental Review This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
