accommodate Area Navigation (RNAV) 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures (SIAP) at Evelyn Sharp Field 

Airport, Ord, NE. This action also 

updates the geographic coordinates of 

the airport to coincide with the FAA’s 

National Aeronautical Charting Office. 

The FAA is taking this action to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On April 21, 2009, the FAA published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

proposed rulemaking to amend Class E 

airspace at Ord, NE, adding additional 

controlled airspace at Evelyn Sharp 

Field Airport, Ord, NE. (74 FR 18167, 

Docket No. FAA–2009–0066). Interested 

parties were invited to participate in 

this rulemaking effort by submitting 

written comments on the proposal to the 

FAA. No comments were received. Class 

E airspace designations are published in 

paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9S 

signed October 3, 2008, and effective 

October 31, 2008, which is incorporated 

by reference in 14 CFR Part 71.1. The 

Class E airspace designations listed in 

this document will be published 

subsequently in the Order. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by 

amending Class E airspace at Ord, NE, 

adding additional controlled airspace 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the surface at Evelyn Sharp Field 

Airport, Ord, NE, for the safety and 

management of IFR operations. This 

action also updates the geographic 

coordinates of the airport to coincide 

with the FAA’s National Aeronautical 

Charting Office. 

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, when 

promulgated, will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
