SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
FAA Order JO 7400.11F, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points,
effective September 15, 2021, listed Class A, B, C, D and E airspace
areas; air traffic service routes; and reporting points. Due to the
length of these descriptions, the FAA requested approval from the
Office of the Federal Register to incorporate the material by reference
in the Federal Aviation Regulations Sec. 71.1, effective September 15,
2021, through September 15, 2022. During the incorporation by reference
period, the FAA processed all proposed changes of the airspace listings
in FAA Order JO 7400.11F in full text as proposed rule documents in the
Federal Register, unless there was good cause to forego notice and
comment. Likewise, all amendments of these listings were published in
full text as final rules in the Federal Register. This rule reflects
the periodic integration of these final rule amendments into a revised
edition of FAA Order JO 7400.11G, Airspace Designations and Reporting
Points. The Director of the Federal Register has approved the
incorporation by reference of FAA Order JO 7400.11G in section 71.1, as
of September 15, 2022, through September 15, 2023. This rule also
explains the procedures the FAA will use to amend the airspace
designations incorporated by reference in part 71. This rule also
updates sections 71.5, 71.15, 71.31, 71.33, 71.41, 71.51, 71.61, 71.71,
and 71.901 to reflect the incorporation by reference of FAA Order JO
7400.11G.
Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference
This document incorporates by reference FAA Order JO 7400.11G,
Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 19, 2022, and
effective September 15, 2022, in section 71.1. FAA Order JO 7400.11G is
publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this final
rule. FAA Order JO 7400.11G lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace
areas, air traffic service routes, and reporting points.
The Rule
This action amends 14 CFR part 71 to reflect the approval by the
Director of the Federal Register of the incorporation by reference of
FAA Order JO 7400.11G, effective September 15, 2022, through September
15, 2023. During the incorporation by reference period, the FAA will
continue to process all proposed changes of the airspace listings in
FAA Order JO 7400.11G in full text as proposed rule documents in the
Federal Register, unless there is good cause to forego notice and
comment. Likewise, all amendments of these listings will be published
in full text as final rules in the Federal Register. The FAA will
periodically integrate all final rule amendments into a revised edition
of FAA Order JO 7400.11, and submit the revised edition to the Director
of the Federal Register for approval for incorporation by reference in

published yearly and effective on September 15.
Regulatory Notices and Analyses
The FAA has determined that this action: (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. This
action neither places any new restrictions or requirements on the
public, nor changes the dimensions or operation requirements of the
airspace listings incorporated by reference in part 71.
