CFR part 71.1. The Class E 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 Title 14, Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 

establishes Class E airspace at 

Gainesville, FL, to provide controlled 

airspace required to support the new 

Area Navigation (RNAV) Global 

Positioning System (GPS) helicopter 

point in space approach at Shands 

Hospital. 

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On May 11, 2006 the FAA proposed 

to amend Title 14 Code of Federal 

Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by 

establishing Class E airspace at Forest 

Hill, MD. (71 FR 27429). An original 

SIAP has been developed for this airport 

and this action provides adequate Class 

E airspace for IFR operations. 

Designations for Class E5 airspace areas 

extending upward from 700 fee or more 

above the surface of the earth are 

published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9P, dated September 1, 

2006, and effective September 15, 2006, 

which is incorporated by reference in 14 

CFR part 71.1. The Class E 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, however, in revalidating 

the proposed dimension of the airspace, 

it was found that the radius had been 

miscalculated and is actually 6.4 miles 

instead of 6.0 miles as proposed. 

Although it is believed that the 

corrected radius would not adversely 

affect airspace users, a 30-day comment 

period is being provided to give 

interested persons an opportunity to 

comment on the change. 

The Rule 

This amendment to Title 14, Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 

establishes Class E5 airspace at Forest 

Hill, MD, to provide controlled airspace 

required to support the new Area 

Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning 

System (GPS) Runway (RWY) 31 SIAP 

at Forest Hill Airport. 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed regulation only involves an

when promulgated, will not have a

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

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. Previous 

actions of this nature have not been 

controversial and have not resulted in 

adverse comments or objections. Unless 

a written adverse or negative comment 

or a written notice of intent to submit 

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 final 

rule will become effective. If the FAA 

does receive, within the comment 

period, an adverse or negative comment, 

on 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 

Interested parties are invited to 

participate in this rulemaking by 

submitting such written data, views, or 

arguments, as they may desire. 

Comments that provide the factual basis 

supporting the views and suggestions 

presented are particularly helpful in 

developing reasoned regulatory 

decisions on the direct final rule. 

Comments are specifically invited on 

the overall regulatory, aeronautical, 

economic, environmental, and energyrelated aspects of the direct final rule.
