The Proposal The FAA is considering an amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by establishing a Class D airspace area to Chandler Municipal Airport, AZ. The intended effect of this proposal is to provide adequate Class D airspace for aircraft executing instrument approach procedures at Chandler Municipal Airport, Chandler, AZ. Class D airspace designations are published in paragraph 5000 of FAA Order 7400.9B, dated July 18, 1994, and effective September 16, 1994, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D airspace designation listed in this document would be published subsequently in this Order. 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. Therefore, this proposed regulation--(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 10034; 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 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). The Proposed Amendment Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the Federal Aviation Administration proposes to amend part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) as follows: PART 71--[AMENDED] 1. The authority citation for part 71 continues to read as follows: Authority: 49 U.S.C. 40103, 40113, 40120; E.O. 10854, 24 FR 9565, 3 CFR, 1959-1963 Comp., p. 389; 49 U.S.C. 106(g); 14 CFR 11.69. Sec. 71.1 [Amended] 2. The incorporation by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 of the Federal Aviation Administration Order 7400.9B, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated July 18, 1994, and effective September 16, 1994, is amended follows: Paragraph 5000 Class D Airspace * * * * * AWP AZ D Chandler Municipal Airport, AZ [New] Chandler Municipal Airport, AZ (Lat. 33 deg.16'09'' N, long. 111 deg.48'40'' W) [[Page 31424]] That airspace extending upward from the surface to and including 3700 feet MSL within a 4-mile radius of Chandler Municipal Airport, excluding the portion within the Chandler Williams-Gateway Airport, AZ, Class D airspace area.
