Amendment of Class E Airspace; Smithville, TN

Airspace Docket No. 00-ASO-18
00-15946
PART 71—DESIGNATION OF CLASS A, CLASS B, CLASS C, CLASS D AND CLASS E AIRSPACE AREAS; AIRWAYS, ROUTES; AND REPORTING POINTS
ASO TN E5 Smithville, TN [Revised]
https://www.federalregister.gov/d/00-15946 https://www.federalregister.gov/d/00-15946
This action amends Class E airspace at Smithville, TN. A Global Positioning System (GPS) Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP), helicopter point in space approach, has been developed for Dekalb County Hospital, Smithville, TN. As a result, controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to accommodate the SIAP.
On May 9, 2000, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by amending Class E airspace at Smithville, TN, (65 FR 26787). This action provides adequate Class E airspace for IFR operations at Dekalb County Hospital. Designations for Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet or more above the surface are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9G, dated September 1, 1999, and effective September 16, 1999, 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.
This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) amends Class E airspace at Smithville, TN.
The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amandments are necessary to keep them operationally current. It, therefore, (1) is not a “significant regulatory action” under Edxecutive 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.
