ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action amends Jackson, Wyoming, Class E airspace by
providing additional controlled airspace to accommodate a Global
Positioning System (GPS) Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP)
to the Jackson Hole Airport. A correction is made herein clarifying
that the intent of this rulemaking action is to amend existing Class E
airspace rather than establish Class E airspace as was stated in the
notice of proposed rulemaking action. A minor correction is also being
made to the geographic position coordinates of the Jackson Hole
Airport.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, October 10, 1996.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On April 22, 1996, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to amend Class E airspace at
Jackson, Wyoming, by providing additional controlled airspace to
accommodate a new GPS SIAP to the Jackson Hole Airport (61 FR 17606). A
correction is made herein clarifying that the intent of this action is
to amend existing Class E airspace rather than establish Class E
airspace as was stated in the notice of proposed rulemaking action. A
minor correction is also being made to the geographical position
coordinates of the Jackson Hole Airport.
Interested parties were invited to participate in the rulemaking
proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal. No comments
were received.
The coordinates for this airspace docket are based on North
American Datum 83. Class E airspace areas extending upward from 700
feet or more above the surface of the earth are published in paragraph
6005 of FAA Order 7400.9C dated August 17, 1995, and effective
September 16, 1995, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1.
The Class E airspace listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.
The Rule
This amendment to part 71 of Federal Aviation Regulations amends
Class E airspace at Jackson, Wyoming. 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.
