airspace on users of airspace in the vicinity of Cedar Springs, GA, 
notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are not necessary. 
Designations for 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 7400.9P, dated September 16, 2006, and effective September 
16, 2006, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class 
E airspace designations listed in this document will be published 
subsequently in the Order.

The Rule

    This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 
CFR part 71) removes Class E5 airspace at Cedar Springs, GA.
    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 currently. 
If, 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.
