SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On February 12, 1997, the FAA

proposed to amend Part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

part 71) by revising the Class E airspace

area at San Francisco, CA (62 FR 6507).

This action will revoke the surface area

for Alameda NAS (Nimitz Field), CA

since the purpose and requirements for

controlled airspace no longer exist.

Interested parties were invited to

participate in this rulemaking

proceeding by submitting written

comments on the proposals to the FAA.

No comments to the proposals were

received. Class E airspace designations

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 designations

listed in this document will be

published subsequently in this Order.

The Rule

This amendment to part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

part 71) revises the Class E airspace area

at San Francisco, CA by revoking the

surface area for Alameda NAS (Nimitz

Field), CA. The base closure of Alameda

Naval Air Station (NAS) has made this

action necessary. The intended effect of

this action is to revoke controlled

airspace since the purpose and

requirements for the surface area no

longer exist at Alameda NAS (Nimitz

Field), CA.

The FAA has determined that this

regulation only involves an established

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 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 rule will not have

a significant economic impact on a

substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act.
