14 CFR Part 71
[Airspace Docket No. 94-ANM-10]
Amendment to Class D Airspace; Aurora, CO
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action amends the Aurora, Buckley ANG Base Airport,
Colorado, Class D airspace. It amends the Class D airspace effective
hours to conform with the control tower's hours of operation at the
Buckley ANG Base, Colorado. Airspace reclassification, in effect as of
September 16, 1993, has discontinued use of the terms ``control zone''
and ``air traffic area,'' replacing them with the designation ``Class D
airspace.'' This amendment would bring publications up to date.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 VTC, June 23, 1994.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ted Melland, ANM-536, Federal Aviation
Administration, Docket No. 94-ANM-10, 1601 Lind Avenue S.W., Renton,
Washington 98055-4056; telephone number: (206) 227-2536.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On March 23, 1994, the FAA proposed to amend part 11 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations to amend the Buckley ANG Base Class D airspace to
incorporate ``part-time'' information into the rule (59 FR 13663; March
23, 1994). The information would provide pilots with notice that the
Class D airspace would not be effective during certain periods of the
day. No comments were received. Airspace reclassification, in effect as
of September 16, 1993, has discontinued use of the terms ``control
zone'' and ``air traffic area,'' replacing them with the designation
``Class D airspace.''
Class D airspace designations are published in Paragraph 5000 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 8, 1993). The Class D airspace designation listed in this document
will be published subsequently in the Order. The coordinates are in
North American Datum 83.
The Rule
This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14
CFR part 71) amends Class D airspace at the Buckley ANG Base, Aurora,
Colorado, by adding information regarding the times the Class D
airspace is effective. 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
