    The Proposal
    
        The FAA is considering an amendment to part 71 of the Federal 
    Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by establishing Class E airspace 
    area at Hemet, CA. The development of a GPS SIAP at Hemet-Ryan Airport 
    has made this proposal necessary. The intended effect of this proposal 
    is to provide adequate Class E airspace for aircraft executing the GPS 
    RWY 05 SIAP at Hemet-Ryan Airport, Hemet, CA. 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 7400.9D dated September 4, 1996, and effective September 16, 
    1996, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E 
    airspace designation listed in this document would be published 
    subsequently in this Order.
        The FAA has determined that this proposed regulations 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 10034; 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.
