   NOTICE OF ACTION TAKEN -- DOCKET OST-2004-19231

________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________

This serves as notice to the public of the action described below, taken
by the Department official indicated (no additional confirming order
will be issued in this matter).

Application of   Delta Air Lines, Inc. (Delta)  filed   9/27/04  for:

XX  Exemption for two years under 49 U.S.C. 40109 to provide the
following service:

Scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail
between Atlanta, Georgia, and Cozumel, Mexico, and to integrate this
authority with all of Delta’s existing certificate and exemption
authority, consistent with applicable international agreements.  Delta
proposes to operate service in this market using its own aircraft and
crews beginning on March 5, 2005.

Applicant rep: Robert E. Cohn,<PHONE_NUMBER>  DOT Analyst: Thuy H.
Cooper<PHONE_NUMBER>

D I S P O S I T I O N

XX  Granted (subject to conditions, see below)

The above action was effective when taken: October 6, 2004,  through
October 6, 2006.

Action taken by:   Paul L. Gretch, Director

		    Office of International Aviation

XX  The authority granted is consistent with the aviation agreement
between the United States and Mexico.

Except to the extent exempted or waived, this authority is subject to
the terms, conditions, and limitations indicated:

XX Holder’s certificates of public convenience and necessity

   	XX Standard exemption conditions (attached)

Conditions:  The U.S.-Mexico exemption authority granted is subject to
the dormancy notice requirements set forth in condition 7 of Appendix A
of Order 88-10-2.  Consistent with our policy, the dormancy notice
period will begin on March 5, 2005, Delta’s proposed start-up date for
the Atlanta-Cozumel service.

The route integration authority granted is subject to the condition that
any service provided under this exemption shall be consistent with all
applicable agreements between the United States and the foreign
countries involved.  Furthermore, (a) nothing in the award of the route
integration authority granted should be construed as conferring upon
Delta rights (including fifth-freedom intermediate and/or beyond rights)
to serve markets where U.S. carrier entry is limited unless Delta
notifies the Department of its intent to serve such a market and unless
and until the Department has completed any necessary carrier selection
procedures to determine which carrier(s) should be authorized to
exercise such rights; and (b) should there be a request by any carrier
to use the limited-entry route rights that are included in Delta’s
authority by virtue of the route integration exemption granted here, but
that are not then being used by Delta, the holding of such authority by
route integration will not be considered as providing any preference for
Delta in a competitive carrier selection proceeding to determine which
carrier(s) should be entitled to use the authority at issue.

Remarks:  We acted on this application without awaiting expiration of
the 15-day answer period with the consent of all parties served with the
application.

________________________________________________________________________
_____

On the basis of data officially noticeable under Rule 24(g) of the
Department's regulations, we found the applicant qualified to provide
the exemption services authorized.

Under authority assigned by the Department in its regulations, 14 CFR
Part 385, we found that (1) our action was consistent with Department
policy; (2) grant of the authority was consistent with the public
interest; and (3) grant of the authority would not constitute a major
regulatory action under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975.
To the extent not granted, we denied all requests in the referenced
Docket.  We may amend, modify, or revoke the authority granted in this
Notice at any time without hearing at our discretion.

Persons entitled to petition the Department for review of the action set
forth in this Notice under the Department’s regulations, 14 CFR
§385.30, may file their petitions within seven (7) days after the date
of issuance of this Notice.  This action was effective when taken, and
the filing of a petition for review will not alter such effectiveness.

										  05/2004

 Delta previously held the authority to serve the Atlanta-Cozumel market
pursuant to a code-share arrangement with Aerovias de Mexico, S.A. de
C.V. (Aeromexico) (see Route 562, Order 2000-5-31).  However, that
authority became dormant and it automatically expired according to its
terms.

14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2017-0183; Airspace Docket No. 17-ASW-4]

Amendment of Class E Airspace for the Following Louisiana Towns;
Leesville, LA; and Patterson, LA

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action amends Class E airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface at Leesville City Airport, Leesville, LA, and
Harry P. Williams Memorial Airport, Patterson, LA. Airspace redesign is
necessary due to the decommissioning of the Leesville non-directional
radio beacon (NDB), and the Patterson radio beacon (RBN), and
cancellation of NDB and RBN approaches, and for the safe management of
instrument flight rules (IFR) operations at these airports.
Additionally, this action amends the geographic coordinates at Harry P.
Williams Memorial Airport, to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical
database.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, December 7, 2017. The Director of the
Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under
Title 1, Code of Federal Regulations, part 51, subject to the annual
revision of FAA Order 7400.11 and publication of conforming amendments.

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 Leesville City Airport, Leesville, LA and Harry P. Williams
Memorial Airport, Patterson, LA, to support standard instrument
approach procedures for IFR operations at the airport.

History

    On April 10, 2017, the FAA published in the Federal Register (82 FR
17160) Docket No. FAA-2017-0183, a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
to amend Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the
surface at:
    Leesville Airport, Leesville, LA, and Harry P. Williams Memorial
Airport, Patterson, LA, due to the decommissioning of the Leesville NBD
and Patterson RBN.
    Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking
effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No
comments were received.
    Subsequent to publication, the FAA realized that it had
inadvertently failed to include updates to the geographic coordinates
for Harry P. Williams Memorial Airport, to coincide with the FAA's
aeronautical database in the NPRM. Those geographic coordinates are
updated in this final rule.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005, of
FAA Order 7400.11B, dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15,
2017, 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 7400.11B, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15,
2017. FAA Order 7400.11B is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11B 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 Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface at:
    Leesville Airport, Leesville, LA, to within a 6.4-mile radius
(reduced from a 6.5-mile radius) of Leesville Airport, and within 3.7
miles each side of the 360[deg] bearing from the airport (modified from
3.6 miles from each side of the 345[deg] bearing) extending from the
6.4-

mile radius (reduced from a 6.5-mile radius) to 12.3 miles (increased
from 12.2 miles) north of the airport, and removing the segment within
2.5 miles each side of the 000[deg] bearing of the Leesville NDB
extending from the 6.5-mile radius to 7.3 miles north of the airport;
and
    Harry P. Williams Memorial Airport, Patterson, LA, by removing the
segment within 2.5 mile each side of the 233[deg] bearing from the
Patterson RBN extending from the 6.5-mile radius to 7.5 miles southwest
of the airport. Additionally, the geographic coordinates for Harry P.
Williams Memorial Airport, are adjusted to coincide with the FAA's
aeronautical database.
    Airspace reconfiguration is necessary due to the decommissioning of
the Leesville NBD and Patterson RBN, and cancellation of the navigation
aid approaches at these airports. Controlled airspace is necessary for
the safety and management of standard instrument approach procedures
for IFR operations at these airports.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.11B, dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15,
2017, 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.

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.

(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-7 under the Act,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on December 4, 2006, National Futures Association (``NFA'') filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the
proposed rule change described in Items I, II, and III below, which
Items have been substantially prepared by NFA. On December 14, 2006,
NFA submitted an amendment to the proposed rule change.\3\ The
Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the
proposed rule change, as amended, from interested persons. NFA also has
filed the proposed rule change with the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (``CFTC'').

Regulation, Commission, dated December 14, 2006 (``Amendment No.
1''). In Amendment No. 1, NFA replaced Exhibit 4, which was
incomplete in the original filing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    NFA, on November 30, 2006, submitted the proposed rule change to
the CFTC for approval and invoked the ``ten-day'' provision of Section
17(j) of the Commodity Exchange Act (``CEA'').\4\ By letter dated
December 12, 2006, the CFTC notified NFA of its determination not to
review the proposed rule change.\5\

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Description of the Proposed Rule
Change

    Section 15A(k) of the Act \6\ makes NFA a national securities
association for the limited purpose of regulating the activities of NFA
members (``Members'') who are registered as brokers or dealers in
security futures products under Section 15(b)(11) of the Act.\7\ NFA's
interpretive notice entitled ``Compliance Rule 2-9: Supervision of the
Use of Automated Order-Routing Systems'' (``Interpretive Notice'')
applies to all futures commission merchant and introducing broker
Members, including those who are registered as security futures brokers
or dealers under Section 15(b)(11).\8\

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(k).
    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78o(b)(11).
    \8\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In 2002, NFA adopted the Interpretive Notice, which referred
Members to an AICPA/CICA WebTrustSM/TM Self-Assessment
Questionnaire for Availability and stated that they could download the
questionnaire from NFA's Web site. The questionnaire is not available
on NFA's Web site. Therefore, the AORS Interpretive Notice is amended
to delete the paragraph referencing the WebTrustSM/TM Self-
Assessment Questionnaire for Availability.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, NFA has prepared statements
concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change,
burdens on competition, and comments received from members,
participants, and others. The text of these statements may be examined
at the places specified in Item IV below. NFA has prepared summaries,
set forth in Sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant
aspects of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    In 2002, NFA adopted the Interpretative Notice, which referred
Members to an AICPA/CICA WebTrustSM/TM Self-Assessment
Questionnaire for Availability and stated that they could download the
questionnaire from NFA's Web site. At the time the Interpretative
Notice was adopted, NFA knew that the questionnaire was copyrighted but
was in discussions with AICPA/CICA and believed that it would give NFA
permission to use the material in this manner.
    AICPA/CICA subsequently informed NFA that it had decided not to
allow NFA to use the questionnaire as described in the Interpretive
Notice. Although the questionnaire is not available on NFA's Web site,
NFA never removed the reference in the Interpretative Notice.
Therefore, the Interpretive Notice is amended to delete the paragraph
referencing the WebTrustSM/TM Self-Assessment Questionnaire
for Availability.
2. Statutory Basis
    The rule change is authorized by, and consistent with, Section
15A(k) of the Act.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(k).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The rule change will not impose any burden on competition that is
not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act
and the CEA.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    NFA did not publish the rule change to the membership for comment.
NFA did not receive comment letters concerning the rule change.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    NFA, on November 30, 2006, submitted the proposed rule change to
the CFTC for approval and invoked the ``ten-day'' provision of Section
17(j) of the CEA.\10\ By letter dated December 12, 2006, the CFTC
notified NFA of its determination not to review the proposed rule
change.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 7 U.S.C. 21(j).
    \11\ See Letter, supra note 5.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Within 60 days of the date of effectiveness of the proposed rule
change, the Commission, after consultation with the CFTC, may summarily
abrogate the proposed rule change and require that the proposed rule
change be refiled in accordance with the provisions of Section 19(b)(1)
of the Act.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
