14290 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 58 / Wednesday, March 26, 1997 / Rules and Regulations

body of technical regulations that need

frequent and routine amendments 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

action will change several airspace legal

descriptions to reflect the name change

of the Sacramento International Airport.

The 1996 name change of the

Sacramento Metropolitan Airport to

Sacramento International Airport has

made this action necessary. The

intended effect of this action is to

replace all references to Sacramento

Metropolitan Airport with Sacramento

International Airport. Class D airspace

areas are published in Paragraph 5000

and Class E airspace areas are published

in Paragraph 6002 and Paragraph 6003

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 D

and E airspace designation listed in this

document would be published

subsequently in this Order.

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. This

action changes several airspace legal

descriptions to reflect the name change

of the Sacramento International Airport.

The intended effect of this action is to

replace all references to Sacramento

Metropolitan Airport with Sacramento

International Airport. 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, an adverse or negative comment,

or written notice of intent to submit

such a comment, a document

withdrawing the direct final rule will be

published in the Federal Register, and

a notice of proposed rulemaking may be

published with a new comment period.

Comments Invited

Although this action is in the form of

a final rule and was not preceded by a

notice of proposed rulemaking,

comments are invited on this rule.

Interested persons are invited to

comment on this rule by submitting

such written data, views, or arguments

as they may desire. Communications

should identify the Rules Docket

number and be submitted in triplicate to

the address specified under the caption

ADDRESSES. All communications

received on or before the closing date

for comments will be considered, and

this rule may be amended or withdrawn

in light of the comments received.

Factual information that supports the

commenter’s ideas and suggestions is

extremely helpful in evaluating the

effectiveness of this action and

determining whether additional

rulemaking action would be needed.

Comments are specifically invited on

the overall regulatory, economic,

environmental, and energy aspects of

the rule that might suggest a need to

modify the rule. All comments
Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 58 / Wednesday, March 26, 1997 / Rules and Regulations 14291

submitted will be available, both before

and after the closing date for comments,

in the Rules Docket for examination by

interested persons. A report that

summarizes each FAA-public contact

concerned with the substance of this

action will be filed in the Rules Docket.

Commenters wishing the FAA to

acknowledge receipt of their comments

submitted in response to this rule must

submit a self-addressed, stamped

postcard on which the following

statement is made: ‘‘Comments to

Docket No. 97–AWP–13.’’ The postcard

will be date stamped and returned to the

commenter.

Agency Findings

The regulations adopted herein will

not have substantial direct effects on the

States, on the relationship between the

national government and the States, or

on the distribution of power and

responsibilities among the various

levels of government. Therefore, in

accordance with Executive Order 12612,

it is determined that this final rule does

not have sufficient federalism

implications to warrant the preparation

of a Federalism Assessment.

The FAA has determined that this

regulation is noncontroversial and

unlikely to result in adverse or negative

comments. For the reasons discussed in

the preamble, I certify that this

regulation (1) is not a ‘‘significant

regulatory action’’ under Executive

Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant

rule’’ under Department of

Transportation (DOT) Regulatory

Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034,

February 26, 1979); and (3) if

promulgated, will not have a significant

economic impact, positive or negative,

on a substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act. A copy of the regulatory

evaluation prepared for this action is

contained in the Rules Docket. A copy

of it may be obtained by contacting the

Rules Docket at the location provided

under the caption ADDRESSES.
