SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The FAA published a final rule in the Federal Register for Docket
No. FAA-2021-0169 (86 FR 50245, September 8, 2021), amending Class D
and Class E airspace for eight airports in the south Florida area. The
FAA then delayed the effective date for that final rule until May 19,
2022 (87 FR 4154). Due to delays in other rule making projects in the
area, the FAA is delaying the effective date to September 8, 2022. 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. FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting
Points, is published yearly and effective on September 15.
Good Cause for No Notice and Comment
Section 553(b)(3)(B) of Title 5, United States Code, (the
Administrative Procedure Act) authorizes agencies to dispense with
notice and comment procedures for rules when the agency for ``good
cause'' finds that those procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary,
or contrary to the public interest.'' Under this section, an agency,
upon finding good cause, may issue a final rule without seeking comment
prior to the rulemaking. The FAA finds that prior notice and public
comment to this final rule is unnecessary due to the brief length of
the extension of the effective date and the fact that there is no
substantive change to the rule.
Delay of Effective Date
Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the
effective date of the final rule, Airspace Docket 21-ASO-3, as
published in the Federal Register on September 8, 2021 (86 FR 50245)
and delayed to May 19, 2022, on January 27, 2022 (87 FR 4154; FR Doc.
2021-19268), is hereby delayed until September 8, 2022.
Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(f), 106(g); 40103, 40113, 40120; E.O.
