expansion) would allow for larger types

of aircraft to operate into and out of the

airport. Establishing Class E controlled

airspace actually enhances safety of

flight operations, for those aircraft

presently permitted to use the airport,

during periods of marginal and

deteriorating weather conditions.

Therefore, any perceived risk associated

with this concern is beyond the scope

of this airspace action, because, as

stated above, comments concerning any

possible future expansion of the airport

should be directed to the local airport

authority.

3. Establishing Class E controlled

airspace does not automatically lead to

increased aircraft operations for that

airport. The demographics of this

airport indicate only a small

insignificant increase in aircraft

operations may occur as a result of this

GPS SIAP and associated airspace

action. There is presently no expected

significant increase in the total annual

air traffic operations due to the

establishment of Class E controlled

airspace at this airport. Therefore, there

is not reasonable expectation of a

significant increase in the noise levels,

nor is there a reasonable expectation of

a significant change in property values

for homes immediately adjacent to the

airport.

Class E airspace designations for 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 be

published subsequently in the Order.

The Rule

This amendment to part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

part 71) establishes Class E airspace at

Ephraim, WI to accommodate aircraft

executing the GPS Runway 32 SIAP at

Ephraim-Fish Creek 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 thereby enabling

pilots to circumnavigate the area or

otherwise comply with IFR procedures.

The FAA has determined that this

regulation only involves an establishes

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On Wednesday, January 8, 1997, the

FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

part 71) to establish Class E airspace at

Shawano, WI (62 FR 1067). The

proposal was to add controlled airspace

extending upward from 700 to 1200 feet
