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 would amend the Class D airspace, Class E surface airspace, and
Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface and
remove the Class E airspace designated as an extension to Class D and
Class E surface airspace at La Crosse Regional Airport, La Crosse, WI,
to support instrument flight rule operations at this airport.

Comments Invited

    Interested parties are invited to participate in this proposed
rulemaking by submitting such written data, views, or arguments, as
they may desire. Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the
views and suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing
reasoned regulatory decisions on the proposal. Comments are
specifically invited on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic,
environmental, and energy-related aspects of the proposal.
Communications should identify both docket numbers and be submitted in
triplicate to the address listed above. Commenters wishing the FAA to
acknowledge receipt of their comments on this notice must submit with
those comments a self-addressed, stamped postcard on which the
following statement is made: ``Comments to Docket No. FAA-2022-0774/
Airspace Docket No. 22-AGL-26.'' The postcard will be date/time stamped
and returned to the commenter.
    All communications received before the specified closing date for
comments will be considered before taking action on the proposed rule.
The proposal contained in this notice may be changed in light of the
comments received. A report summarizing each substantive public contact
with FAA personnel concerned with this rulemaking will be filed in the
docket.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order JO 7400.11F, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 10, 2021, and effective
September 15, 2021. FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11F
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 14 CFR part 71 by:
    Amending the Class D airspace at La Crosse Regional Airport, La
Crosse, WI, by adding an extension 1 mile each side of the 359[deg]
bearing from the La Crosse Regional: RWY 18-LOC extending from the 4.4-
mile radius of the airport to 5.3 miles north of the airport; adding an
extension 1 mile each side of the 359[deg] bearing from the airport
extending from the 4.4-mile radius to 5.3 miles north of

the airport; adding an extension 1 mile each side of the 036[deg]
bearing from the airport extending from the 4.4-mile radius of the
airport to 6.2 miles northeast of the airport; adding an extension 1
mile each side of the 119[deg] bearing from the airport extending from
the 4.4-mile radius of the airport to 5.7 miles southeast of the
airport; adding an extension 1 mile each side of the 216[deg] bearing
from the airport extending from the 4.4-mile radius of the airport to
5.6 miles southwest of the airport; and replacing the outdated term
``Notice to Airmen'' with ``Notice to Air Missions'';
    Amending the Class E surface airspace at La Crosse Regional Airport
by adding an extension 1 mile each side of the 359[deg] bearing from
the La Crosse Regional: RWY 18-LOC extending from the 4.4-mile radius
of the airport to 5.3 miles north of the airport; adding an extension 1
mile each side of the 359[deg] bearing from the airport extending from
the 4.4-mile radius to 5.3 miles north of the airport; adding an
extension 1 mile each side of the 036[deg] bearing from the airport
extending from the 4.4-mile radius of the airport to 6.2 miles
northeast of the airport; adding an extension 1 mile each side of the
119[deg] bearing from the airport extending from the 4.4-mile radius of
the airport to 5.7 miles southeast of the airport; adding an extension
1 mile each side of the 216[deg] bearing from the airport extending
from the 4.4-mile radius of the airport to 5.6 miles southwest of the
airport; removing the 3,200 feet MSL restriction as it is not required;
and replacing the outdated term ``Notice to Airmen'' with ``Notice to
Air Missions'';
    Removing the Class E airspace designated as an extension to Class D
and Class E surface areas at La Crosse Regional Airport as these
extensions have been incorporated into the Class D airspace and Class E
surface airspace and this airspace is no longer required;
    And amending the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface at La Crosse Regional Airport by adding an extension
1 mile each side of the 359[deg] bearing from the La Crosse Regional:
RWY 18-LOC extending from the 6.9-mile radius of the airport to 7.2
miles north of the airport.
    This action is due to an airspace review conducted as part of the
decommissioning of the La Crosse VOR, which provided navigation
information for the instrument procedures at these airports, as part of
the VOR MON Program.
    Class D and E airspace designations are published in paragraphs
5000, 6002, 6004, 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 E airspace
designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in
FAA Order JO 7400.11.
    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, Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures, prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
