Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591, or

by calling (202) 267–3484.

The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to part 71 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to

provide additional controlled airspace

for a new SIAP based on the relocated

Port City VOR/DME at the Muscatine,

IA, Municipal Airport. The additional

airspace would segregate aircraft

operating under VFR conditions from

aircraft operating under IFR procedures.

The area would be depicted on

appropriate aeronautical charts thereby

enabling pilots to circumnavigate the

area or otherwise comply with IFR

procedures. 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 7400.9C, dated August 17, 1995,

and effective September 16, 1995, which

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR

71.1. The Class E airspace designation

listed in this document would be

published subsequently in the Order.

The FAA has determined that this

proposed regulation only involves an

established body of technical

regulations for which frequent and

routine amendments are necessary to

keep them operationally current.

Therefore, this proposed 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 proposed rule will

not have a significant economic impact

on a substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act.

The additional airspace would segregate

on appropriate aeronautical charts

thereby enabling pilots to

circumnavigate the area or otherwise

comply with IFR procedures. 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 7400.9C, dated August 17, 1995,

and effective September 16, 1995, which

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR

listed in this document would be

published subsequently in the Order.

The FAA has determined that this

proposed regulation only involves an
