SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On Thursday, May 28, 1998, the FAA

proposed to amend 14 CFR part 71 to

modify Class E airspace at Marshall, MN

(63 FR 29166). 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 Marshall,

MN, to accommodate aircraft executing

the proposed VOR Rwy 12, Amendment

7, SIAP at Marshall Municipal-Ryan

Field Airport, MN, 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 would 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.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Direct final rule; request for

comments.

SUMMARY: This action amends Class E

airspace area at Cambridge Municipal

for diverse departures as specified in

FAA Order 7400.2D. The area has been

enlarged to conform to the criteria of

FAA Order 7400.2D. The intended effect

of this rule is to comply with the criteria

of FAA Order 7400.2D, and to provide

additional controlled Class E airspace

for aircraft operating under Instrument

Flight Rules (IFR).

DATES: Effective date: 0901 UTC,

December 3, 1998.
