The Proposal
The FAA is considering an amendment to part 71 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to amend the Class E airspace
area at Lovelock, NV. The development of GPS SIAP at Lovelock Derby
Field has made this proposal necessary. The intended effect of this
proposal is to provide adequate Class E airspace for aircraft executing
the GPS RWY 1 SIAP at Lovelock Derby Field, Lovelock, NV. 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 effect September 16,
1995, which is incorporated be reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designation listed in this document would published
subsequently in this 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 1034; 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.
