The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 by modifying the Class D airspace at China Lake NAWS
Armitage Field Airport, China Lake, CA. To properly contain departing IFR
aircraft flying toward or over rising terrain, the Class D should be extended to the southwest of the airport.
This action also proposes to modify the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface. This airspace is designed to contain departing IFR aircraft until reaching 1,200 feet above the surface and arriving IFR aircraft descending below 1,500 feet above the surface. New IFR approach procedures to Runway 03 were recently established at China Lake NAWS
Armitage Field Airport, therefore, additional Class E airspace is necessary to ensure proper containment of the procedures.
Additionally, this action proposes to remove the China Lake NAVY TACAN
from the Class E5 text header and airspace description. The navigational aid NAVAID is not needed to describe

the airspace area, and removal of the NAVAID simplifies the airspace description.
Lastly, this action proposes numerous administrative updates to Class D and Class E5 text headers and the Class D
airspace description. The city name in the first line of the text headers should be amended from China Lake NWC to China Lake, to match the FAA
database. The airport name in the second line of the text headers should be amended from China Lake NWC to China Lake NAWS Armitage Field Airport, to match the FAA database.
The geographic coordinates in the third line of the text headers should be updated to lat. 354109 N, long.
1174132 W, to match the FAA
database. The term Airport/Facility Directory in the last line of the Class D airspace description should be updated to Chart Supplement.
Class D and Class E5 airspace designations are published in paragraphs 5000, and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order JO 7400.11F, dated August 10, 2021, and effective September 15, 2021, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class D and Class E airspace designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order.
FAA Order JO 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,
