(NPRM).

SUMMARY: This action proposes to

modify the Class E airspace at Cody,

WY. Newly developed Area Navigation

(RNAV) Standard Instrument Approach

Procedure (SIAP) to Runway (RWY) 22

at the Yellowstone Regional Airport has

made this proposal necessary.

Additional Class E 700-feet, above the

surface of the earth is required to

contain aircraft executing the RNAV

SIAP at Yellowstone Regional Airport.

The intended effect of this proposal is

to provide adequate controlled airspace

for Instrument Flight Rules (IFR)

operations at Yellowstone Regional

Airport, Cody, WY.

DATES: Comments must be received on

or before March 30, 2001.

NPRM. Persons interested in being

describes the application procedure.

The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal

Regulations, part 71 (14 CFR part 71) by

modifying Class E airspace at Cody, WY.

A newly developed RNAV SIAP RWY

22 approach procedure at the

Yellowstone Regional Airport has made

this proposal necessary. Additional

Class E 700-feet controlled airspace,

above the surface of the earth is required

to contain aircraft executing the RNAV

SIAP RWY 22 at Yellowstone Regional

Airport. The FAA establishes Class E

airspace where necessary to contain

aircraft transitioning between the

terminal and en route environments.

Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 30 / Tuesday, February 13, 2001 / Proposed Rules 9989

The intended effect of this proposal is

designed to provide for the safe and

efficient use of the navigable airspace.

This proposal would promote safe flight

operations under IFR at the Yellowstone

Regional Airport and between the

terminal and en route transition stages.

The area would be depicted on

aeronautical charts for pilot reference.

The coordinates for this airspace docket

are based on North American Datum 83.

Class E airspace areas 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 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. 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 11013; 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.
