SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As part of 6 U.S.C. 313-314, and section 611
of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act,
(codified at 42 U.S.C. 5196), the mission of the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) is to reduce the loss of life and property and
protect the Nation from all hazards by leading and supporting the
Nation in a risk-based, comprehensive emergency management system of
preparedness, protection, response, recovery, and mitigation. FEMA's
Individual and Community Preparedness Division (ICPD) supports the FEMA
Mission by connecting individuals, organizations, and communities with
research and tools to build and sustain capabilities to prepare for any
disaster or emergency. The Division conducts research to better
understand effective preparedness actions and ways to motivate the
public to take those actions. ICPD develops and shares preparedness
resources and coordinates comprehensive disaster preparedness
initiatives that empower communities to prepare for, protect against,
respond to, and recover from a disaster. This mission is achieved
through close coordination with the FEMA Regions and working
relationships with Federal, state, local, and Tribal agencies. This
includes working with nongovernmental partners from all sectors both
nationally and through neighborhood-based community groups.
    This collection will allow ICPD to gather the following information
from the public via web form(s):
     Feedback: General feedback on the effectiveness of
national FEMA preparedness programs and initiatives and website user
experience
     Activity Details: Information regarding the type, size and
location of preparedness activities hosted by members of the public and
community organizers
     POC Information: For registration within the site and
follow-on communication, if needed
     Future Engagement Requests: Allow for the public to enroll
in the ICPD newsletter or other public communications
     Publication Ordering: Submitting requests to the FEMA
publication warehouse to have materials shipped directly to members of
the public
    This proposed information collection previously published in the
Federal Register on March 31, 2023, at 88 FR 19316 with a 60-day public
comment period. One public comment was received regarding the benefit
of collecting this information to the public. ICPD uses data regularly
in order to develop efficient and effective preparedness programming
for individuals and communities across the nation. Data collection,
including asking the public for their opinions on ICPD educational
materials, helps ICPD make informed decisions about program development
and program revision cycles. The collection mentioned in this
information collection request contains multiple methods for the public
to freely share their perspectives and opinions on ICPD programming
online.
    The purpose of this notice is to notify the public that FEMA will
submit the information collection abstracted below to the Office of
Management and Budget for review and clearance.

SUMMARY: This action modifies Class E airspace extending upward from
700 feet above the surface at George L. Scott Municipal Airport, West
Union, IA, by updating the geographic coordinates of the airport to

the instrument procedures at this airport, as part of the VOR Minimum
Operational Network (MON) Program.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, April 25, 2019. The Director of the Federal
Register approves this incorporation by reference action under Title 1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's 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 agency's
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 Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the
surface at George L. Scott Municipal Airport, West Union, IA, to
support instrument flight rules operations at this airport.

History

    The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal
Register (83 FR 51900; October 15, 2018) for Docket No. FAA-2018-0827
to amend Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the
surface at George L. Scott Municipal Airport, West Union, IA.
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 E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.11C, dated August 13, 2018, and effective September 15,
2018, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designations listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.11C, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 13, 2018, and effective September 15,
2018. FAA Order 7400.11C is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11C lists Class A,
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Rule

    This amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 modifies the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface at George L. Scott Municipal Airport, West Union, IA,
by updating the geographic coordinates of the airport to coincide with
the FAA's aeronautical database. Additionally, an editorial change
removing the city associated with the airport in the airspace legal
description is being made to comply with a change to FAA Order 7400.2L,
Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters.
    This action is necessary due to an airspace review caused by the
decommissioning of the Waukon VOR, which provided navigation
information to the instrument procedures at this airport, as part of
the VOR MON Program.

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 5-6.5.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.
