[Airspace Docket No. 96–ASW–06]

Establishment of Class E Airspace;

Panhandle, TX

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This action establishes the

Class E airspace extending upward from

700 feet above ground level (AGL) at

Panhandle, TX. The development of a

Global Positioning System (GPS)

Standard Instrument Approach

Procedure (SIAP) to Runway (RWY) 35

AT Panhandle-Carson County Airport

has made this action necessary. This

action is intended to provide adequate

Class E airspace to contain instrument

flight rule (IFR) operations for aircraft

executing the GPS SIAP to RWY 35 at

Panhandle-Carson County Airport,

Panhandle, TX.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, May 22,

1997.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On June 19, 1996, a proposal to

amend part 71 of the Federal Aviation

Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to establish

the Class E airspace at Panhandle, TX,

was published in the Federal Register

(61 FR 31067). A GPS SIAP to RWY 35

developed for Panhandle-Carson County

Airport, Panhandle, TX, requires the

establishment of Class E airspace at this

airport. The proposal was to establish

the controlled airspace extending

upward from 700 feet AGL to contain

IFR operations in controlled airspace

during portions of the terminal

operation and while transitioning

between the enroute and terminal

environments.

Interested parties were invited to

participate in this rulemaking

proceeding by submitting written

comments on the proposal to the FAA.

No comments to the proposal were

received. The rule is adopted as

proposed.

The coordinates for this airspace

docket are based on North American

Datum 83. Class E airspace designations

for airspace areas extending upward

from 700 feet or more AGL 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

located at Panhandle-Carson County

Airport, Panhandle, TX, to provide

controlled airspace extending upward

from 700 feet AGL for aircraft executing

the GPS SIAP to RWY 35.

The FAA has determined that this

regulation only involves an established

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:

History

On June 19, 1996, a proposal to

amend part 71 of the Federal Aviation

Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to revise

Class E airspace at Ardmore Municipal

Airport, Ardmore, OK, was published in

the Federal Register (61 FR 31068). A

revision to the VOR SIAP to RWY 04 for

Ardmore Municipal Airport, Ardmore,

OK, requires the revision of Class E

airspace at this airport. The proposal

was to revise the controlled airspace

extending upward from the surface to

contain IFR operations in controlled

airspace during portions of the terminal

operation and while transitioning

between the enroute and terminal

environments.

Interested parties were invited to

participate in this rulemaking

proceeding by submitting written

comments on the proposal to the FAA.

No comments to the proposal were

received. However, the proposal was

published with an incorrect coordinate

for the location of the Ardmore

Municipal Airport, Ardmore, OK. The

correct coordinates for the airport

should have been (Lat. 34°18′12′′ N,

long. 097°01′12′′ W). The description of

the Class E airspace in this rule has been

revised to reflect this change. The FAA

has determined that this is an editorial

change and will not increase the scope

of this rule. Except for non-substantive,

editorial changes, the rule is adopted as

proposed.

The coordinates for this airspace

docket are based on North American

Datum 83. Class E airspace designations

for airspace areas extending upward

from surface are published in Paragraph

6004 of FAA Order 7400.9D dated

September 4, 1996, and effective

September 16, 1996, which is

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR

72.2. 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) revises the Classs E airspace

located at Ardmore Municipal Airport,

Ardmore, OK, to provide controlled

airspace extending upward from surface

for aircraft executing the VOR SIAP to

RWY 04.

The FAA has determined that this

regulation only involves an established

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

26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant

preparation of a regulatory evaluation as

the anticipated impact is so minimal.

Since this is 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
