The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to part 71 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to

establish Class E airspace at Sturgis, SD.

This proposal would provide adequate

Class E airspace for operators executing

the GPS Runway 29 SIAP at Sturgis

Municipal Airport. Controlled airspace

extending upward from 700 feet AGL is

needed for aircraft executing the

approach. The area would be depicted

on appropriate aeronautical charts.

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

would not have a significant economic

impact on a substantial number of small

entities under the criteria of the

Regulatory Flexibility Act.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71

Airspace, Incorporation by reference,

Navigation (air).

The Proposed Amendment

Accordingly, purusant to the

authority delegated to me, the Federal

Aviation Administration proposes to

amend part 71 of the Federal Aviation

Regulations (14 CFR part 71) as follows:

PART 71—[AMENDED]

1. The authority citation for part 71

continues to read as follows:

1963 Comp., p. 389; 14 CFR 11.69.

§ 71.1 [Amended]

2. The incorporation by reference in

14 CFR 71.1 of the Federal Aviation

Administration Order 7400.9C, Airspace

Designations and Reporting Points,

dated August 17, 1995, and effective

September 16, 1995, is amended as

follows:

above the surface of the earth.
