SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On May 9, 1995, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by modifying the Class E airspace
area at Salinas, CA (60 FR 24594). This amendment is necessary due to
the closure of Fort Ord Fritzche AAF, CA. This action will remove Fort
Ord Fritzche AAF, CA, Class D airspace area from the Class E airspace
description at Salinas, CA.
Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking
proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA.
No comments to the proposal were received. Class E airspace
designations are published in paragraph 6004 of FAA Order 7400.9B,
dated July 18, 1994, and effective September 16, 1994, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. 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 (14
CFR part 71) amends the Class E airspace area at Salinas, CA, by
removing Fort Ord Fritzche AAF, CA, Class D airspace area from the
Class E airspace description at Salinas, CA.
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.
Therefore, this regulation--(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 10034; 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
Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).
