The Proposal 

The FAA is considering an 

amendment to 14 CFR part 71 to modify 

Class E airspace at Hibbing, MN, for 

Chisholm-Hibbing Airport. Controlled 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet or more above the surface of the 

earth is needed to contain aircraft 

executing instrument approach 

procedures. The area would be depicted 

on appropriate aeronautical charts. 

Class E airspace areas extending upward 

from 700 feet or more above the surface 

of the earth are published in paragraph 

6005 of FAA Order 7400.9L dated 

September 2, 2003, and effective 

September 16, 2003, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E designations listed in 

this document would be published 

subsequently in the Order. 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed regulation only involves an 

establishment 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 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) 

does not warrant preparation of a 

Regulatory Evaluation as the 

anticipation 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.

Findlay Airport. Class E airspace areas 

extending upward from the surface of 

the earth are published in paragraph 

6002 of FAA Order 7400.9L dated

this document would be published 

subsequently in the Order. 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed regulation only involves an 

establishment 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 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 will 

not have a significant economic impact 

on a substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory
