AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

inadvertently omitted during the airspace reclassification process.
This action amends the West Yellowstone, Montana Class E airspace from
full-time back to part-time. Airspace reclassification, in effect as of
September 16, 1993, has discontinued the use of the term ``transition
area,'' replacing it with the designation ``Class E airspace.''

James E. Riley, ANM-537, Federal Aviation Administration, Docket No.
93-ANM-38, 1601 Lind Avenue SW., Renton, Washington 98055-4056;
Telephone: (206) 227-2537.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On December 3, 1993, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by amending the West
Yellowstone, Montana, Class E airspace (58 FR 63905). 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.
Airspace reclassification, in effect as of September 16, 1993, has
discontinued the use of the term ``transition area,'' and airspace
extending upward from 700 feet or more above the surface of the earth
is now Class E airspace. Class E airspace designations for airspace
areas extending 700 feet or more above the surface of the earth are
published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9A dated June 17, 1993,
and effective September 16, 1993, which is incorporated by reference in
14 CFR 71.1 (58 FR 36298; July 6, 1993). The Class E airspace
designation listed in this document will be published subsequently in
the Order.
The Rule
This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations
amends the Class E airspace at West Yellowstone, Montana, to correct an
error in the airspace description inadvertently omitted during the
airspace reclassification process. This action amends the West
Yellowstone Class E airspace from full-time back to part-time.
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
