Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 47 / Tuesday, March 11, 1997 / Proposed Rules 11121

The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to Part 71 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to

establish Class E airspace extending

upward from 700 feet above the surface

(AGL) at Thiel, PA.A GPS 199 Point In

Space Approach has been developed for

Greenville Hospital Heliport. Additional

controlled airspace extending upward

from 700 feet above the surface (AGL) is

needed to accommodate this approach

and for IFR operations to the heliport.

The area would be depicted on

appropriate aeronautical charts. Class E

airspace designations for airspace

extending upward from 700 feet 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 a significant economic

impact on a substantial number of small

entities under the criteria of the

Regulatory Flexibility Act.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71

Airspace, Incorporation by reference,

Navigation (air).

The Proposed Amendment

In consideration of the foregoing, the

Federal Aviation Administration

proposes to amend 14 CFR part 71 as

follows:

PART 71—[AMENDED]

§ 71.1 [Amended]

2. The incorporation by reference in

14 CFR 71.1 of the Federal Aviation

Administration Order 7400.9D, dated

September 4, 1996, and effective

September 16, 1996, is proposed to be

amended as follows:

above the surface of the earth.
