airspace down to 700 feet above ground level is needed for instrument
flight rules (IFR) operations at Teterboro Airport. The intended effect
of this proposed action is to provide adequate Class E airspace for IFR
operators.

The Proposal
The FAA is considering an amendment to part 71 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 17) to establish additional Class E
airspace at New York, NY. The intended effect of this proposal is to
provide additional controlled airspace down to 700' above ground level
for IFR operations at Teterboro Airport, NJ. The coordinates for this
airspace docket are based on North American Datum 83. Class E airspace
designations are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9B,
Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, 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
would be published subsequently in the Order.
The FAA has determined that this proposed 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, when promulgated, this proposed rule will not have
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
