Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 25 / Friday, February 6, 2004 / Rules and Regulations 5683

would issue a Determination of No 

Hazard. 

As noted by commenters, the interim 

final rule that the FAA published on 

April 22, 2003 (68 FR 19730) will be in 

effect only for the duration of President 

George W. Bush’s term of office. The 

FAA recognizes that all Presidents’

private residences raise safety and 

national security concerns. However, 

the protections necessary to ensure the 

safe ingress and egress of the President 

may vary substantially depending on 

the nature and location of each 

President’s residence. As we stated in 

SFAR No. 98, we anticipate that similar 

rules, tailored to the security concerns 

of the Presidential residence, may be 

needed at other locations to protect the 

transportation of future Presidents. 

Conclusion 

After consideration of the comments 

submitted in response to the interim 

final rule, the FAA has determined that 

no further rulemaking action is 

necessary. SFAR No. 98 remains in 

effect as adopted.

Issued in Washington, DC, on January 29, 

2004.

Administrator.

[Docket No. 30403; Amdt. No. 3088] 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures; Miscellaneous 

Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This amendment establishes, 

amends, suspends, or revokes Standard 

Instrument Approach Procedures 

(SIAPs) for operations at certain 

airports. These regulatory actions are 

needed because of the adoption of new 

or revised criteria, or because of changes 

occurring in the National Airspace 

System, such as the commissioning of 

new navigational facilities, addition of 

new obstacles, or changes in air traffic 

requirements. These changes are 

designed to provide safe and efficient 

use of the navigable airspace and to 

promote safe flight operations under 

instrument flight rules at the affected 

airports.

DATES: This rule is effective February 6, 

2004. The compliance date for each 

SIAP is specified in the amendatory 

provisions. 

The incorporation by reference of 

certain publications listed in the 

regulations is approved by the Director 

of the Federal Register as of February 6, 

2004.

ADDRESSES: Availability of matters 

incorporated by reference in the 

amendment is as follows: 

For Examination—

1. FAA Rules Docket, FAA 

Headquarters Building, 800 

Independence Avenue, SW., 

Washington, DC 20591; 

2. The FAA Regional Office of the 

region in which the affected airport is 

located; 

3. The Flight Inspection Area Office 

which originated the SIAP; or, 

4. The Office of Federal Register, 800

Washington, DC. 

For Purchase—Individual SIAP 

copies may be obtained from: 

1. FAA Public Inquiry Center (APA–

2. The FAA Regional Office of the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

amendment to part 97 of the Federal 

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 97) 

establishes, amends, suspends, or 

revokes Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures (SIAPs). The complete 

regulatory description of each SIAP is 

contained in official FAA form 

documents which are incorporated by 

reference in this amendment under 5 

U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and § 97.20 

of the Federal Aviation Regulations 

(FAR). The applicable FAA Forms are 

identified as FAA Forms 8260–3, 8260–

4, and 8260–5. Materials incorporated 

by reference are available for 

examination or purchase as stated 

above. 

The large number of SIAPs, their 

complex nature, and the need for a 

special format make their verbatim 

publication in the Federal Register

expensive and impractical. Further, 

airmen do not use the regulatory text of 

the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic 

depiction on charts printed by 

publishers of aeronautical materials. 

Thus, the advantages of incorporation 

by reference are realized and 

publication of the complete description 

of each SIAP contained in FAA form 

documents is unnecessary. The 

provisions of this amendment state the 

affected CFR (and FAR) sections, with 

the types and effective dates of the 

SIAPs. This amendment also identifies 

the airport, its location, the procedure 

identification and the amendment 

number.

The Rule 

This amendment to part 97 is effective 

upon publication of each separate SIAP 

as contained in the transmittal. Some 

SIAP amendments may have been 

previously issued by the FAA in a 

National Flight Data Center (NFDC) 

Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) as an 

emergency action of immediate flight 

safety relating directly to published 

aeronautical charts. The circumstances 

which created the need for some SIAP 

amendments may require making them 

effective in less than 30 days. For the 

remaining SIAPs, an effective date at 

least 30 days after publication is 

provided. 

Further, the SIAPs contained in this 

amendment are based on the criteria 

contained in the U.S. Standard for 

Terminal Instrument Procedures 

(TERPS). In developing these SIAPs, the 

TERPS criteria were applied to the 

conditions existing or anticipated at the 

affected airports. Because of the close 

and immediate relationship between 

these SIAPs and safety in air commerce, 

I find that notice and public procedure 

before adopting these SIAPs are 

impracticable and contrary to the public 

interest and, where applicable, that 

good cause exists for making some 

SIAPs effective in less than 30 days. 

Conclusion 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary 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

5684 Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 25 / Friday, February 6, 2004 / Rules and Regulations 

regulatory evaluation as the anticipated 

impact is so minimal. For the same 

reason, the FAA certifies that this 

amendment will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
