    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    
    History
    
        On July 17, 1995, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the Federal 
    Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by establishing a Class E 
    airspace area at Placerville Airport, Placerville, CA. (60 FR 36372). 
    The development of a GPS SIAP at Placerville Airport has made this 
    action necessary.
        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 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 
    designation listed in this document will be published subsequently in 
    this Order.
    
    The Rule
    
        This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 
    CFR part 71) establishes a Class E airspace area at Placerville, CA. 
    The development of a GPS SIAP at Placerville Airport has made this 
    action necessary. The intended effect of this action is to provide 
    adequate Class E airspace for aircraft executing the GPS RWY 5 SIAP at 
    Placerville Airport, Placerville, 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 
    
    [[Page 48024]]
    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.
