Office of Management and Budget

(OMB) under the provisions of 44 U.S.C.

chapter 35 and have been assigned OMB

control numbers 0575–0109 and 0575–

0110 in accordance with the Paperwork

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507).

This rule does not revise or impose any

new information collection or

recordkeeping requirements.

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

Title II of the Unfunded Mandates

Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), Pub. L.

104–4, establishes requirements for

Federal agencies to assess the effects of

their regulatory actions on State, local,

and tribal governments and the private

sector. Under section 202 of the UMRA,

the Agencies generally must prepare a

written statement, including a cost

benefit analysis, for proposed and final

rules with ‘‘Federal mandates’’ that may

result in expenditures to State, local, or

tribal governments, in the aggregate, or

to the private sector, of $100 million or

more in any one year. When such a

statement is needed for a rule, section

205 of the UMRA generally requires the

Agencies to identify and consider a

reasonable number of regulatory

alternatives and adopt the least costly,

more cost-effective or least burdensome

alternative that achieves the objectives

of the rule.

This rule contains no Federal

mandates (under regulatory provisions

of title II of the UMRA) for State, local,

and tribal governments or the private

sector. Thus, this rule is not subject to

the requirements of sections 202 and

205 of the UMRA.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

The undersigned certify that this rule

will not have a significant impact on a

substantial number of small entities as

defined under the Regulatory Flexibility

Act. Pub. L. 96-534, as amended (5

U.S.C. 601). No actions are being taken

under this rule that affect small entities.

These changes only affect Agency

recordkeeping. Therefore, a Regulatory

Flexibility Analysis has not been

prepared.

Environmental Impact Statement

It is the determination of the issuing

Agencies that this action is not a major

Federal action significantly affecting the

environment and, in accordance with

the National Environmental Policy Act

of 1969, Pub. L. 91–190, an

Environmental Impact Statement is not

required.

Executive Order 12988

This rule has been reviewed in

accordance with Executive Order 12988,

Civil Justice Reform. In accordance with

this rule: (1) All State and local laws

and regulations that are in conflict with

this rule will be preempted; (2) no

retroactive effect will be given to this

rule; and (3) administrative proceedings

in accordance with 7 CFR parts 11, and

1900, subpart B or 780, as applicable,

must be exhausted before bringing suit

in court challenging action taken under

this rule unless those regulations

specifically allow bringing suit at an

earlier time.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

ACTION: Direct final rule; confirmation of

effective date.

SUMMARY: This action confirms the

effective date of Airworthiness Directive

(AD) 98–12–31, which applies to certain

British Aerospace Jetstream Model 3101

airplanes. AD 98–12–31 requires

repositioning the fuel cross feed pipes

in the lower center fuselage to give an

overall clearance of 2 inches when

measuring from the bottom of Frame

Station 223. This AD was the result of

mandatory continuing airworthiness

information (MCAI) issued by the

airworthiness authority for the United

Kingdom. The actions specified in this

AD are intended to prevent the fuel pipe

from fracturing during a wheels up

landing because of the positioning of the

fuel cross feed pipes, which could result

in an airplane fire.

EFFECTIVE DATE: September 10, 1998.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA

published this direct final rule with

request for comments in the Federal

Register on June 12, 1998 (63 FR 32121).

The FAA uses the direct final

rulemaking procedure for a noncontroversial rule where the FAA

anticipates that there will be no adverse

public comment. This direct final rule

advised the public that no adverse

comments were anticipated, and that

unless a written adverse comment, or a

written notice of intent to submit such

an adverse comment, was received

within the comment period, the

regulation would become effective on

September 10, 1998. No adverse

comments were received, and thus this

notice confirms that this final rule will

become effective on that date.

Issued in Kansas City, Missouri, on July 28,

1998.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On April 20, 1998, a proposal to

amend part 71 of the Federal Aviation

Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to revise

Class E airspace at Barrow, AK, was

published in the Federal Register (63

FR 19429). The proposal was necessary

due to establishment of GPS instrument

approaches to RWY 6 and RWY 24 at

Barrow, AK.

Interested parties were invited to

participate in this rulemaking

proceeding by submitting written

comments on the proposal to the FAA.

No public comments to the proposal

were received. However, the Point

Barrow LRRS Airport was shut down

and abandoned in December 1991. The

airspace within 6.5-mile radius of the

Point Barrow LRRS Airport therefore is

no longer required. Elimination of this

airspace will reduce the burden to the

public. References to the Point Barrow

LRRS Airport 6.5-mile radius have been

removed from the Barrow, AK, legal

description. The Barrow, AK, legal

description was changed to reflect this

removal by: (1) the intersection of the

Barrow 345° radial and the 6.5-mile

radius of the Point Barrow LRRS Airport

has been replaced with the latitude/

longitude coordinates: 71° 25′ N, 156°

55′W and (2) the 1,200 foot airspace

boundary line will connect to the

northeast corner of the existing 700 foot

airspace boundary at 71° 21′ 02′′ N, 156°

00′ 41′′ W. The Federal Aviation

Administration has determined that

these changes are editorial in nature and

will not increase the scope of this rule.

Except for the non-substantive change

just discussed, the rule is adopted as

written.

The coordinates for this airspace

docket are based on North American

Datum 83. The area will be depicted on

aeronautical charts for pilot reference.

The Class E airspace designated 700/

1200 foot transition areas are published

in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order

7400.9E, Airspace Designations and

Reporting Points, dated September 10,

1997, and effective September 16, 1997,

which is incorporated by reference in 14

CFR 71.1 (62 FR 52491; October 8,

1997). The Class E airspace designations

listed in this document will be revised

and published subsequently in the

Order.

The Rule

This amendment to 14 CFR part 71

revises the Class E airspace at Barrow,

AK. The establishment of the GPS

instrument approaches to RWY 6 and

RWY 24 have made this action

necessary. The intended effect of this

proposal is to provide adequate

controlled airspace for IFR operations at

Barrow, AK.

The FAA has determined that these

proposed regulations only involve an

established body of technical

regulations for which frequent and

routine amendments are necessary 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,

when promulgated, will not have a

significant economic impact on a

substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act.

Adoption of the Amendment

In consideration of the foregoing, the

Federal Aviation Administration

amends 14 CFR part 71 as follows:

1963 Comp., p. 389.

§ 71.1 [Amended]

2. The incorporation by reference in

14 CFR 71.1 of Federal Aviation

Administration Order 7400.9E, Airspace
