[Airspace Docket No. 97–AWP–14]

Proposed Revision of Class E

Airspace; Sacramento, CA

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

SUMMARY: This notice proposes to revise

the Class E airspace area at Sacramento,

CA. This action removes from the

Sacramento E5 airspace area description

that portion of airspace defined as a

surface area for Sacramento Executive

Airport and corresponding references.

Deleting this portion of the description

which describes a surface area conforms

to the E5 airspace area standard. This

surface area is thoroughly and

appropriately described in the

Sacramento Executive Airport, CA,

Class E2 airspace area. A review of

airspace classification and air traffic

procedures has made this action

necessary. The intended effect of this

action is to remove overlapping

descriptions of controlled airspace.

DATES: Comments must be received on

or before April 15, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Send comments on the

proposal in triplicate to: Federal

Aviation Administration, Attn:

Any person may obtain a copy of this

Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM)

by submitting a request to the Federal

Aviation Administration, Operations

Branch, P.O. Box 92007, Worldway

The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to part 71 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to

revise the class E airspace area at

Sacramento, CA. This action removes

from the Sacramento E5 airspace area
15864 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 64 / Thursday, April 3, 1997 / Proposed Rules

description that portion of airspace

defined as a surface area for Sacramento

Executive Airport and corresponding

references. Deleting this portion of the

description which describes a surface

area conforms to the E5 airspace area

standard. This surface area is

thoroughly and appropriately described

in the Sacramento Executive Airport,

CA, Class E2 airspace area. A review of

airspace classification and air traffic

procedures has made this action

necessary. The intended effect of this

action is to remove overlapping

descriptions of controlled airspace.

Class E airspace areas 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 this 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 10034; 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 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

Accordingly, pursuant to the

authority delegated to me, the Federal

Aviation Administration proposes to

amend part 71 of the Federal Aviation

Regulations (14 CFR part 71) as follows:

PART 71—[AMENDED]

1. The authority citation for 14 CFR

part 71 continues to read as follows:

[Airspace Docket No. 97–AEA–19 ]

Proposed Establishment of Class E

Airspace; Zelienople, PA

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

SUMMARY: This proposed rule would

establish Class E Airspace at Zelienople,

PA. The development of a new Standard

Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP)

at Zelienople Municipal Airport based

on the Global Positioning System (GPS)

has made this proposal necessary.

Additional controlled airspace

extending upward from 700 feet above

the surface (AGL) is needed to

accommodate this SIAP and for

Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations

to the airport. The area would be

depicted on aeronautical charts for pilot

reference.

DATES: Comments must be received on

or before April 30, 1997.
