Amendment of Class E Airspace; Carrollton, GA
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice amends Class E airspace at Carrollton, GA. The
Non-Directional Beacon (NDB) or Global Positioning System (GPS) Runway
(RWY) 34 and the Localizer (LOC) RWY 34 Standard Instrument Approach
Procedures (SIAP's) have been amended to the West Georgia Regional
Airport. The outbound course from the Carrollton NDB for the NDB or GPS
RWY 34 SIAP has changed from the 168 degree bearing to the 167 degree
bearing and the inbound course has changed from the 348 degree bearing
to the 347 degree bearing. The outbound course from the Carrollton NDB
for the LOC RWY 34 SIAP has changed from the 165 degree bearing to the
166 degree bearing and the inbound course has changed from the 345
degree bearing to the 346 degree bearing. As a result, the length of
the Class E airspace extension south of the NDB will be reduced from 9
to 7 miles and the width of the airspace extension will be increased
from 6 to 7 miles.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, March 25, 1999.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On November 27, 1998, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by establishing Class E
airspace at Carrollton, GA, (63 FR 65565). This action provides
adequate Class E airspace for IFR operations at West Georgia Regional
Airport. Designations for Class E airspace extending upward from 700
feet or more above the surface are published in FAA Order 7400.9F,
dated September 10, 1998, and effective September 16, 1998, 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.
Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking
proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA.
No comments objecting to the proposal was received.
The Rule
This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14
CFR part 71) amends Class E Airspace at Carrollton, GA for the West
Georgia Regional Airport.
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.
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 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.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71
Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).
