ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This action modifies Class E

airspace at Casey, IL. A Nondirectional

Beacon (NDB) Standard Instrument

Approach Procedure (SIAP) to Runway

(Rwy) 4, Amendment 7, has been

developed for Casey Municipal Airport.

Controlled airspace extending upward

from 700 to 1200 feet above ground

level (AGL) is needed to contain aircraft

executing the approach. This action

increases the radius of the existing

controlled airspace.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On Thursday, March 12, 1998, the

FAA proposed to amend 14 CFR part 71

to modify Class E airspace at Casey, IL

(63 FR 12051). The proposal was to add

controlled airspace extending upward

from 700 to 1200 feet AGL to contain

Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations

in controlled airspace during portions of

the terminal operation and while

transiting 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 objecting to the proposal

were received. Class E airspace

designations for airspace areas

extending upward from 700 feet or more

above the surface of the earth are

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA

Order 7400.9E dated September 10,

1997, and effective September 16, 1997,

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 14 CFR part 71

modifies Class E airspace at Casey, IL,

to accommodate aircraft executing the

proposed NDB Rwy 4 SIAP,

Amendment 7, at Casey Municipal

Airport by increasing the radius of the

existing controlled airspace. 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.

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 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.
