DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
14 CFR Part 71
[Airspace Docket No. 94-ANM-26]
Establish Class E Airspace; Trinidad, CO
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action establishes Class E airspace at the Perry Stokes
Airport, Trinidad, Colorado. Establishment of a new instrument approach
procedure requires controlled airspace for the procedure. Airspace
reclassification, in effect as of September 16, 1993, has discontinued
use of the term ``transition area,'' replacing it with the designation
``Class E'' airspace. The Class E airspace will be depicted on
aeronautical charts for pilot reference when the new approach
procedures become effective.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, October 13, 1994.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On May 10, 1994, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to establish Class E airspace for
the Perry Stokes Airport, Trinidad, Colorado (59 FR 24093). Interested
parties were invited to participate in the rulemaking process by
submitting such written data, views, or arguments as they desired. No
comments were received.
Airspace reclassification, in effect as of September 16, 1993, has
discontinued use of the term ``transition area,'' replacing it with the
designation ``Class E airspace.'' Class E airspace designations for
airport surface areas and for airspace areas extending upward from 700
feet above the surface of the earth are published in Paragraphs 6002
and 6005, respectively, 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 designations
listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order.
The coordinates in this final rule are in North American Datum 83.
The Rule
This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations
establishes Class E airspace at Trinidad, Colorado. It will provide
controlled airspace for a new instrument approach procedure at the Lake
County Airport.
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
