The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to part 71 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR Part 71) to

amend Class D airspace at Kissimmee,

FL Class D airspace designations for

airspace areas extending upward from

the surface are published in Paragraph

5000 of FAA Order 7400.9H, dated

September 1, 2000, and effective

September 16, 2000, which is

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR

71.1. The Class D 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. 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.
