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. Class E airspace

designations for airspace areas

extending upward from 700 feet or more

above the surface of the earth are

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA

Order 7400.9D, dated September 4,

1996, and effective September 16, 1996,

which is incorporated by reference in 14

CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace

designation listed in this document will

The Rule

This amendment to part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

part 71) establishes Class E airspace at

Moorhead, MN, to accommodate aircraft

executing the GPS Runway 30 SIAP at

Moorhead County Airport. Controlled

airspace extending upward from 700 to

1200 feet AGL is needed to contain

aircraft executing the approach. The

area will be depicted on appropriate

aeronautical charts.

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

current. Therefore, 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)

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.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This action establishes Class

E airspace at Preston, MN. A Global

Positioning System (GPS) Standard

Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAP)

to Runway 28 has been developed for

Fillmore County Airport. Controlled

airspace extending upward from 700 to

1200 feet above ground level (AGL) is

needed to contain aircraft executing the

approach. This action creates the

controlled airspace required for this

SIAP. The intended effect of this action

is to provide segregation of aircraft

using instrument approach procedures

in instrument conditions from other

aircraft operating in visual weather

conditions.

airspace at Lawrenceville, IL. A Very

High Frequency Omnidirectional Range/

Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/

DME) Standard Instrument Approach

Procedure (SIAP) to Runway 18 and a

VOR/DME SIAP to Runway 36 have

aircraft executing the approach. This

action adds an extension to the

northeast of the existing Class E airspace
