Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 119 / Tuesday, June 20, 2000 / Proposed Rules 38225

by submitting a request to the Federal

Aviation Administration, Manager,

Airspace Branch, ASO–520, Air Traffic

Division, P.O. Box 20636, Atlanta,

Georgia 30320. Communications must

identify the docket number of this

NPRM. Persons interested in being

placed on a mailing list for future

NPRMs should also request a copy of

Advisory Circular No. 11–2A which

describes the application procedure.

The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to part 71 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR Part 71) to

establish Class D airspace at Kissimmee,

FL. Air traffic controllers at Kissimmee

Municipal Airport, FL, are being

certificated as weather observers.

Therefore, the airport will meet criteria

for Class D airspace. Class D surface area

airspace is required when the control

tower is open to accommodate current

SIAPs and for IFR operations at the

airport. Class D airspace designations

for airspace areas extending upward

from the surface are published in

Paragraph 5000 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 D airspace designation

listed in this document would be

published subsequently in the 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. 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,

when promulgated, will not have a

significant economic impact on a

substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act.
