SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On November 24, 1993, a proposal to amend part 71 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR Part 71) to modify the Class E airspace at
Chickasha, OK, was published in the Federal Register (58 FR 62055). A
new standard instrument approach procedure (SIAP) has been developed
for the Chickasha Municipal Airport. This modification is required to
provide adequate Class E airspace for instrument flight rule (IFR)
operators executing the new SIAP.
Interested persons were invited to participate in this rulemaking
proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA.
No comments objecting to the proposal were received.
Except for updating the latitude and longitude of the Chickasha
NDB, this amendment is the same as that proposed in the notice. The
coordinates for this airspace docket are based on North American Datum
83. Class E airspace designations for airspace areas extending upward
from 700 feet or more above ground level are published in Paragraph
6005 of FAA Order 7400.9A dated June 17, 1993, and effective September
16, 1993, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 (58 FR
36298; July 6, 1994). The Class E airspace designation listed in this
document will be published subsequently in the Order.
The Rule
This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14
CFR part 71) revises the Class E airspace located at Chickasha, OK.
The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations that need frequent and
routine amendments to keep them operationally current. 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 will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71
Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).
