regulatory, economic, environmental,

and energy-related aspects of the

proposal. Communications should

identify the airspace docket number and

be submitted in triplicate to the address

listed above. Commenters wishing the

FAA to acknowledge receipt of their

comments on this notice must submit

with those comments a self-addressed,

stamped postcard on which the

following statement is made:

‘‘Comments to Airspace Docket No. 97–

The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to Part 71 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR Part 71) to

amend the Class E airspace area at

Meadville, PA. A GPS RWY 25 SIAP has

been developed for the Port Meadville

Airport. Additional controlled airspace

extending upward from 700 feet above

the surface (AGL) is needed to

accommodate this SIAP and for IFR

operations at the airport. Class E

airspace designations for airspace areas

extending upward from 700 feet or more

above the surface 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 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.

Therefore, this proposed 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 would only affect air

traffic procedures and air navigation, it

is certified that this proposed rule

would not have significant economic

impact on a substantial number of small

entities under the criteria of the

Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Proposed Establishment of Class E

Airspace; Mount Pleasant, PA

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

establish Class E airspace at Mount

Pleasant, PA. The development of a new

Standard Instrument Approach

Procedure (SIAP), Helicopter Point In

Space Approach based on the Global

Positioning System (GPS), and serving

Frick Community Hospital Heliport, has

made this proposal necessary. The

intended effect of this proposal is to

provide adequate controlled airspace for

Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations

to the heliport. The area would be

depicted on aeronautical charts for pilot

reference.

DATES: Comments must be received on
