    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    
    History
    
        The Memphis Naval Air Station (NAS) is now a joint use airport. As 
    a result, the name of the airport located at Millington, TN, changed 
    from Memphis NAS to Memphis NAS/Millington Municipal Airport. This 
    amendment is necessary to reflect that change. The dimensions, 
    configuration and operating requirements of the affected airspace do 
    not change. This rule will become effective on the date specified in 
    the EFFECTIVE DATE section. Since this action does not change the 
    dimensions, configuration or operating requirements of the Class D 
    surface area airspace for the airport, and as a result, has no impact 
    on users of the airspace in the vicinity of the Memphis NAS/Millington 
    Municipal Airport, notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) 
    are unnecessary. Class D airspace designations are published in 
    Paragraph 5000 of FAA Order 7400.9C dated August 17, 1995, and 
    effective September 16, 1995. The Class D airspace designation listed 
    in this document will be published subsequently in the Order.
    
    The Rule
    
        This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulatory (14 
    CFR part 71) changes the name of Memphis NAS to Memphis NAS/Millington 
    
    [[Page 4871]]
    Municipal Airport and changes the title of the airspace designation for 
    the Memphis NAS/Millington Municipal Airport located at Millington, TN, 
    from Memphis NAS, TN, to Millington, TN.
        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.
