this AD; and, if the unsafe condition has not

been eliminated, the request should include

specific proposed actions to address it.

Compliance: Required as indicated, unless

accomplished previously.

To prevent a fuel fire due to electrical

sparks contacting the maintenance light

housing of the fuel service panel, accomplish

the following:

CB5–B8 located in the aft equipment bay at

STA.645L on the JB5 panel.

(2) Open the refuel/defuel door located on

the right side of the fuselage at the wing root.

Remove the maintenance light receptacle by

removing the four screws holding the

receptacle to the fairing.

(3) Pull the light receptacle away from the

fairing revealing the two wire leads attached

to the receptacle.

(4) Disconnect the wires by removing the

two screws that attach the wire leads to the

light receptacle.

(5) Cap and stow the wires to prevent

contact with metal objects within the fairing.

Transport Airplane Directorate. Operators

shall submit their requests through an

appropriate FAA Principal Maintenance

Inspector, who may add comments and then

send it to the Manager, Los Angeles ACO.

Note 2: Information concerning the

14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 2000–ASW–02]

Establishment of Class E Airspace;

Stigler, OK

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Direct final rule; request for

comments.

SUMMARY: This amendment establishes

Class E airspace at Stigler, OK. The

development of two global positioning

system (GPS) standard instrument

approach procedures (SIAP’s), to Stigler

Municipal Airport, Stigler, OK, has

made this rule necessary. This action is

intended to provide adequate controlled

airspace extending upward from 700

feet or more above the surface for

instrument flight rules (IFR) operations

to Stigler Municipal Airport, Stigler,

OK.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, April 20,

2000.

Comments must be received on or

before March 6, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Send comments on the rule

in triplicate to Manager, Airspace

Branch, Air Traffic Division, Federal

Aviation Administration, Southwest

Region, Docket No. 2000–ASW–02, Fort

docket may be examined in the Office

of the Regional Counsel, Southwest

Region, Federal Aviation

Administration, 2601 Meacham

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

amendment to 14 CFR part 71

establishes Class E airspace at Stigler,

OK. The development of two GPS

SIAP’s, to Stigler Municipal Airport,

Stigler, OK, has made this rule

necessary. This action is intended to

provide adequate controlled airspace

extending upward from 700 feet or more

above the surface for IFR operations to

Stigler Municipal Airport, Stigler, OK.

Class E airspace designations are

published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA

Order 7400.9G, dated September 1,

1999, and effective September 16, 1999,

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.

The Direct Final Rule Procedure

The FAA anticipates that this

regulation will not result in adverse or

negative comment and therefore is

issuing it as a direct final rule. A

substantial number of previous

opportunities provided to the public to

comment on substantially identical

actions have resulted in negligible

adverse comments or objections. Unless

a written adverse or negative comment,

or a written notice of intent to submit

3382 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 14 / Friday, January 21, 2000 / Rules and Regulations

an adverse or negative comment is

received within the comment period,

the regulation will become effective on

the date specified above. After the close

of the comment period, the FAA will

publish a document in the Federal

Register indicating that no adverse or

negative comments were received and

confirming the date on which the

comment period, an adverse or negative

comment, or written notice of intent to

submit such a comment, a document

withdrawing the direct final rule will be

published in the Federal Register, and

a notice of proposed rulemaking may be

published with a new comment period.

Comments Invited

Although this action is in the form of

a final rule and was not preceded by a

notice of proposed rulemaking,

comments are invited on this rule.

Interested persons are invited to

comment on this rule by submitting

such written data, views, or arguments

as they may desire. Communications

should identify the Rules Docket

number and be submitted in triplicate to

the address supplied under the caption

ADDRESSES. All communications

received on or before the closing date

for comments will be considered, and

this rule may be amended or withdrawn

in light of the comments received.

Factual information that supports the

commenter’s ideas and suggestions is

extremely helpful in evaluating the

effectiveness of this action and

determining whether additional

rulemaking action is needed.

Comments are specifically invited on

the overall regulatory, economic,

environmental, and energy aspects of

the rule that might suggest a need to

modify the rule. All comments

submitted will be available, both before

and after the closing date for comments,

in the Rules Docket for examination by

interested persons. A report that

summarizes each FAA-public contact

concerned witht the substance of this

action will be filed in the Rules Docket.

Commenters wishing the FAA to

acknowledge receipt of their comments

submitted in response to this rule must

submit a self-addresseed, stamped

postcard on which the following

statement is made: ‘‘Comments to

Docket No. 2000–ASW–02.’’ The

postcard will be date stamped and

returned to the commenter.

Agency Findings

The regulations adopted herein will

not have substantial direct effects on the

States, on the relationship between the

national government and the States, or

on the distribution of power and

responsibilities among the various

levels of government. Therefore, it is

determined that this final rule will not

have federalism implications under

Executive Order 13132.

Further, the FAA has determined that

this regulation is noncontroversial and

unlikely to result in adverse or negative

comments and only involves an

established body of technical

regulations that require frequent and

routine amendments to keep them

operationally current. Therefore, I

certify that this 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) if

promulgated, will not have a significant

economic impact, positive or negative,

on a substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act. Since this rule involves

routine matters that will only affect air

traffic procedures and air navigation, it

does not warrant preparation of a

Regulatory Flexibility Analysis because

the anticipated impact is so minimal.
