A report summarizing each substantive public contact with FAA personnel concerned with this rulemaking will be filed in the docket. Availability of NPRMs An electronic copy of this document may be downloaded through the internet at http://www.regulations.gov. Recently published rulemaking documents can also be accessed through the FAA’s web page at http:// www.faa.gov/air-traffic/publications/ airspace-amendments/. You may review the public docket containing the proposal, any comments received, and any final disposition in person in the Dockets Office (see the ADDRESSES section for the address and phone number) between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except federal holidays. An informal docket may also be examined during normal business hours at the Federal Aviation Administration, Air Traffic Organization, Central Service Center, Operations Support Group, 10101 Hillwood Parkway, Fort Worth, TX 76177. Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference This document proposes to amend 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 Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by amending Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface within a 6.3-mile radius of Charleston-Mississippi County Airport, Charleston, MO, and removing the extension within 2.6 miles each side of the 190° bearing from the Charleston NDB. This action is necessary due to the decommissioning of the Charleston NDB. This action would enhance safety and the management of IFR operations at the airport. 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 designation listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order. Regulatory Notices and Analyses The FAA has determined that this proposed 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 proposed 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. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71 Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air). The Proposed Amendment Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the Federal Aviation Administration proposes to amend 14 CFR part 71 as follows: PART 71—DESIGNATION OF CLASS A, B, C, D, AND E AIRSPACE AREAS; AIR TRAFFIC SERVICE ROUTES; AND REPORTING POINTS ■ 1.

The incorporation by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 of FAA Order 7400.11C, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 13, 2018, and effective September 15, 2018, is amended as follows: Paragraph 6005 Class E Airspace Areas Extending Upward From 700 Feet or More Above the Surface of the Earth.

Comments are available on the Commission’s website at https://www.sec.gov/ comments/s7-23-18/s72318.htm. 5 In this regard, the Commission notes that the comment period overlapped in part with the recent lapse in appropriations.

The Commission originally requested that comments on the release be received by February 15, 2019. The Commission has received several requests for an extension of time for public comment on the proposal to, among other things, allow for adequate time to fully consider the proposals and to improve the quality of responses.4 The Commission believes that providing the public additional time to thoroughly consider the matters addressed by the release and to submit comprehensive responses to the release would benefit the Commission in its consideration of final rules.5 Therefore, the Commission is reopening the comment period for Release Nos. 33–10569; 34–84508; IC– 33286 ‘‘Updated Disclosure Requirements and Summary Prospectus for Variable Annuity and Variable Life Insurance Contracts’’ until March 15, 2019.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking. SUMMARY: The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is proposing to amend its regulations to implement a new single-sheet format for order forms (DEA Form 222) which are issued by DEA to DEA registrants to allow them to order schedule I and/or II controlled substances. DEA published a notice of proposed rulemaking about this new format in November 2007 but did not finalize it. Due to the passage of time and procedural considerations, DEA is reissuing another notice of proposed rulemaking. This proposal supersedes the November 2007 proposal. This proposed rule calls for allowing the continued use of the existing triplicate DEA Form 222 until a sunset date of two years after the final rule becomes effective, which would be included in the final rule. DEA also proposes minor procedural changes, including among other things, to clarify the procedure involving who can issue the power of attorney that is required for others to sign DEA Form 222. DATES: Electronic comments must be submitted, and written comments must be postmarked, on or before April 22, 2019. Commenters should be aware that the electronic Federal Docket Management System will not accept comments after 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the last day of the comment period.
