Amendment to Class D Airspace; Eastover, SC
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This amendment modifies Class D airspace at Mc Entire ANGS,
Eastover, SC. In accordance with a periodical review, the Non-
Directional Radio Beacon (NDB) Runway (RWY) 32 Standard Instrument
Approach Procedure (SIAP) requires additional
[[Page 69633]]
airspace. As a result, additional controlled airspace extending upward
from the surface is needed to accommodate the SIAP at Mc Entire ANGS.
An extension via the 164 deg. bearing from the Mc Entire NDB for the
NDB RWY 32 SIAP will be necessary. The length of the Class D airspace
extension southeast of the NDB will be 6.3 miles, and the width of the
airspace extension will be 5 miles.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, February 24, 2000.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On October 29, 1999, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by amending Class D
airspace at Mc Entire ANGS, SC, (64 FR 209). This amendment modifies
Class D airspace at Mc Entire ANGS. Designations for Class D airspace
extending upward from the surface of the earth are published in 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
D 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 were received.
The Rule
This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14
CFR part 71) amends Class D airspace at Mc Entire ANGS, Eastover, SC.
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).
