[Airspace Docket No. 00–ASO–9]

Amendment to Class D and Class E5

Airspace, Greenwood, MS

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This action amends Class D

and E airspace at Greenwood—Leflore

Airport, Greenwood, MS. An Area

Navigation (RNAV) Runway (RWY) 18

Standard Instrument Approach

Procedure (SIAP) has been developed

for Greenwood, MS. As a result,

additional controlled airspace extending

upward from the surface and extending

upward from 700 feet Above Ground

Level (AGL) is needed to accommodate

the SIAP. This action also makes a

technical change by amending the name

of the VORTAC from Greenwood to

Sidon.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, October 5,

2000.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On April 19, 2000, the FAA proposed

to amend part 71 of the Federal Aviation

Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by

amending Class D and E airspace at

Greenwood—Leflore Airport,

Greenwood, MS. This action would

provide adequate Class D and E airspace

at the airport for the RNAV RWY 18

SIAP. Class D airspace designations are

published in Paragraph 5000, Class E4

airspace designations are published in

Paragraph 6004 and Class E5 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, dated September 1, 1999. The

Class D and E airspace designations

listed in this document will be

published subsequently in the Order.

Interested parties were invited to

participate in this rulemaking

proceeding by submitting written

comments on the proposal to the FAA.

No comments objecting to the proposal

were received.

The Rule

This amendment to Part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

part 71) amends Class D and E airspace

at Greenwood—Leflore Airport,

Greenwood, MS. This action also makes

a technical change by amending the

name of the VORTAC from Greenwood

to Sidon.

The FAA has determined that this

regulation only involves an established

boy 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 will not have

a significant economic impact on a

substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act.
