14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 00–ASO–36]

Amendment of Class D Airspace;

Kissimmee, FL

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This action amends Class D

airspace at Kissimmee, FL. Orlando

Approach Control is the controlling air

traffic control (ATC) facility for

Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations

at Kissimmee Municipal Airport,

Kissimmee, FL. Due to the proximity of

the Kissimmee Municipal Airport to the

Orlando International Airport and the

Orlando Class B airspace area, Orlando

Approach Control has requested the

Kissimmee Class D airspace be lowered

from 2,500 feet MSL to 1,500 feet MSL.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, January 25,

2001.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On September 25, 2000, the FAA

proposed to amend Part 71 of the

Federal Aviation regulations (14 CFR

part 71) by amending Class D airspace

at Kissimmee, FL (65 FR 57567), at the

request of Orlando Approach Control,

the controlling ATC facility for IFR

operations at Kissimmee Municipal

Airport. Designations for Class D

airspace are published in FAA Order

7400.9H, dated September 1, 2000, and

effective September 16, 2000, which is

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR

71.11. The Class D designation 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) amends Class D airspace

Kissimmee, FL.

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. 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 will not have

a significant economic impact on a

substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

amendment to 14 CFR part 71 revises

the Class E airspace at Atlanta, TX. The

development of a RNAV SIAP, at Hall

Miller Municipal Airport, Atlanta, TX,

has made this rule necessary. This

action is intended to provide adequate

controlled airspace extending upward

from 700 feet or more above the surface

for IFR operations to Hall Miller

Municipal Airport, Atlanta, TX.

Class E airspace designations are

published in Paragraph 6005 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 E airspace

designation listed in this document will

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. A

substantial number of previous

opportunities provided to the public to

comment on substantially identical

actions have resulted in negligible

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, or adverse or negative comment,

or written notice of intent to submit

such a comment, a document
