    summary: This amendment establishes, amends, suspends, or revokes 
    Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) for operations at 
    certain airports. These regulatory actions are needed because of 
    changes occurring in the National Airspace System, such as the 
    commissioning of new navigational facilities, addition of new 
    obstacles, or changes in air traffic requirements. These changes are 
    designed to provide safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace 
    and to promote safe flight operations under instrument flight rules at 
    the affected airports.
    
    [[Page 9288]] dates: An effective date for each SIAP is specified in 
    the amendatory provisions.
        Incorporation by reference-approved by the Director of the Federal 
    Register on December 31, 1980, and reapproved as of January 1, 1982.

    amendment is as follows:

    supplementary information: This amendment to part 97 of the Federal 
    Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 97) establishes, amends, suspends, or 
    revokes Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs). The complete 
    regulatory description on each SIAP is contained in the appropriate FAA 
    Form 8260 and the National Flight Data Center (FDC)/Permanent (P) 
    Notices to Airmen (NOTAM) which are incorporated by reference in the 
    amendment under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and Sec. 97.20 of the 
    Federal Aviations Regulations (FAR). Materials incorporated by 
    reference are available for examination or purchase as stated above.
        The large number of SIAPs, their complex nature, and the need for a 
    special format make their verbatim publication in the Federal Register 
    expensive and impractical. Further, airmen do not use the regulatory 
    text of the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic depiction of charts 
    printed by publishers of aeronautical materials. Thus, the advantages 
    of incorporation by reference are realized and publication of the 
    complete description of each SIAP contained in FAA form documents is 
    unnecessary. The provisions of this amendment state the affected CFR 
    (and FAR) sections, with the types and effective dates of the SIAPs. 
    This amendment also identifies the airport, its location, the procedure 
    identification and the amendment number.
    
    The Rule
    
        This amendment to part 97 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 
    CFR part 97) establishes, amends, suspends, or revokes SIAPs. For 
    safety and timeliness of change considerations, this amendment 
    incorporates only specific changes contained in the content of the 
    following FDC/P NOTAM for each SIAP. The SIAP information in some 
    previously designated FDC/Temporary (FDC/T) NOTAMs is of such duration 
    as to be permanent. With conversion to FDC/P NOTAMs, the respective 
    FDC/T NOTAMs have been cancelled.
        The FDC/P NOTAMs for the SIAPs contained in this amendment are 
    based on the criteria contained in the U.S. Standard for Terminal 
    Instrument Approach Procedures (TERPS). In developing these chart 
    changes to SIAPs by FDC/P NOTAMs, the TERPS criteria were applied to 
    only these specific conditions existing at the affected airports. All 
    SIAP amendments in this rule have been previously issued by the FAA in 
    a National Flight Data Center (FDC) Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) as an 
    emergency action of immediate flight safety relating directly to 
    published aeronautical charts. The circumstances which created the need 
    for all these SIAP amendments requires making them effective in less 
    than 30 days.
        Further, the SIAPs contained in this amendment are based on the 
    criteria contained in the TERPS. Because of the close and immediate 
    relationship between these SIAPs and safety in air commerce, I find 
    that notice and public procedure before adopting these SIAPs are 
    unnecessary, impracticable, and contrary to the public interest and, 
    where applicable, that good cause exists for making these SIAPs 
    effective in less than 30 days.
    
    Conclusion
    
        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. For the same reason, the FAA 
    certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic 
    impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of 
    the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
