Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 146 / Tuesday, August 3, 2021 / Rules and Regulations Authority for This Rulemaking 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 amends the Class D airspace at Ohio State University Airport, Columbus, OH, and Rickenbacker International Airport, Columbus, OH, and the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at John Glenn Columbus International Airport, Columbus, OH, and Rickenbacker International Airport, and revokes the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Darby Dan Airport, Columbus, OH, to support instrument flight rule operations at these airports.
History The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking NPRM in the Federal Register 86 FR 28729; May 28, 2021 for Docket No. FAA20210385 to amend the Class D airspace and Class E
airspace at Columbus, OH, and revoke the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Darby Dan Airport, Columbus, OH. 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 and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020, and effective September 15, 2020, 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.

air traffic service routes, and reporting points.
Differences From the NPRM
Subsequent to publication of the NPRM, the FAA discovered a typographic error in the NPRM. The NPRM published the airport name of Darby Dan Airport as Dan Darby Airport. As the correction does not affect the airspace as proposed, it is incorporated into this rule.
The Rule This amendment to 14 CFR part 71:
Amends the Class D airspace at Ohio State University Airport, Columbus Ohio by removing the name of the airport from the header of the airspace legal description to comply with changes to FAA Order 7400.2N, Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters; removes the city associated with the airport in the airspace legal description to comply with changes to FAA Order 7400.2N; updates the geographic coordinates of the airport to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical database; and replaces the outdated term Airport/Facility Directory with Chart Supplement;
Amends the Class D airspace to within a 4.6-mile increased from a 4.5mile radius of Rickenbacker International Airport, Columbus, OH;
removes the airport name from the header of the airspace legal description to comply with changes to FAA Order 7400.2N; and removes the city associated with the airport to comply with changes to FAA Order 7400.2N;
And amends the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface to within a 7.5-mile increased from a 7-mile radius of John Glenn Columbus International Airport, Columbus, OH; updates the name of John Glenn Columbus International Airport previously Port Columbus International Airport to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical database;
removes the cities associated with the airports to comply with changes to FAA
Order 7400.2N; within a 7.1-mile increased from a 7-mile radius of Rickenbacker International Airport;
within 4 miles each side of the 045
bearing from Rickenbacker International Airport extending from the 7.1-mile previously 7-mile radius to 12.6 miles increased from 12.5 miles northeast of the Rickenbacker International Airport;
updates the geographic coordinates of Ohio State University Airport to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical database; removes Darby Dan Airport, Columbus, OH, and the associated airspace as the instrument procedures at this airport have been cancelled and the

airspace is no longer required; and removes the exclusionary language from the airspace legal description as it is not required.
This action is necessary due to airspace reviews caused by the decommissioning of the Rickenbacker International Airport runway 5R middle maker, which provided navigation information for the instrument procedures at this airport, and the cancellation of the instrument procedures at Darby Dan Airport, Columbus, OH.
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.
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 56.5.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.
