Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 117 / Monday, June 18, 2001 / Rules and Regulations 32735

Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by

establishing Class E airspace extending

upward from 700 feet Above Ground

Level (AGL) for an RNAV, Helicopter

Point in Space Approach to the

Westmoreland Hospital Heliport,

Greensburg, PA was published in the

Federal Register (66 FR 17827–17828).

Interested parties were invited to

participate in this rulemaking

proceeding by submitting written

comments on the proposal to the FAA

on or before May 4, 2001. No comments

to the proposal were received. The rule

is adopted as proposed. The coordinates

for this airspace docket are based on

North American Datum 83.

Class E airspace areas designations for

airspace extending upward from 700

feet or more above the surface of the

earth are published in paragraph 6005 of

FAA Order 7400.9H, dated September 1,

2000 and effective September 16, 2000,

which is incorporated by reference in 14

CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace

designation listed in this document will

be amended in the order.

The Rule

This amendment to part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

part 71) provides controlled Class E

airspace extending upward from 700

feet above the surface for aircraft

conducting Instrument Flight Rules

(IFR) operations at the Westmoreland

Hospital Heliport, Greensburg, PA.

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

significant economic impact on a

substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act.

History

On April 30, 2001, the FAA proposed

to amend part 71 of the Federal Aviation

Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by

amending Class D airspace and

establishing Class E4 airspace at

Homestead, FL (66 FR 21296). Class D

airspace designations for airspace areas

extending upward from the surface of

the earth and Class E airspace

designations for airspace areas

designated as an extension to a Class D

airspace area are published in

Paragraphs 5000 and 6004 respectively,

of FAA Order 7400.9H, dated September

1, 2000, and effective September 16,

2000, which is incorporated by

reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D

and Class E airspace designations listed

in this document will be published

subsequently in the Order.

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

The Rule

This amendment to part 71 of the

[Airspace Docket No. 01–ASO–5]

Establishment of Class E Airspace;

LaFayette, GA

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This action establishes Class

E5 airspace at LaFayette, GA. Area

Navigation (RNAV) Runway (RWY) 02

and RWY 20 Standard Instrument

Approach Procedures (SIAP) have been

developed for Barwick LaFayette

Airport. As a result, controlled airspace

extending upward from 700 feet Above

Ground Level (AGL) is needed to

accommodate the SIAP and for

instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations

at Barwick LaFayette Airport. The

operating status of the airport will

change from Visual Flight Rules (VFR)

to include IFR operations concurrent

with the publication of the SIAP.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, September 6,

2001.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On May 4, 2001, the FAA proposed to

amend Part 71 of the Federal Aviation

Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by

establishing Class E airspace at

LaFayette, GA, (66 FR 22490). This

action provides adequate Class E

airspace for IFR operations at Barwick

LaFayette Airport. Designations for

Class E airspace extending upward from

700 feet or more above the surface of the

earth are published in FAA Order

7400.9H, dated September 1, 2000, and

effective September 16, 2000, which is

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR

part 71.1. The Class E designation listed

in this document will be published

subsequently in the Order.

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

was received.

The Rule

This amendment to part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

part 71) establishes Class E airspace at

LaFayette, GA. RNAV RWY 02 and

RWY 20 SIAP have been developed for

Barwick LaFayette Airport. Controlled

airspace extending upward from 700

feet AGL is needed to accommodate the

SIAPs and for IFR operations at Barwick

LaFayette Airport. The operating status

of the airport will change from VFR to

include IFR operations concurrent with

the publication of the SIAP.

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. 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

will not have a significant economic

impact on a substantial number of small

entities under the criteria of the

Regulatory Flexibility Act.
