SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: History On Monday, February 7, 2005, the FAA proposed to revise part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to revise the Class E airspace upward from 700 ft. above the surface at St. Michael, AK (70 FR 6381). The action was proposed in order to add Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft while executing two new SIAPs and a textual departure procedure for the St. Michael Airport. The new approaches are (1) Area Navigation-Global Positioning System (RNAV GPS) Runway 2, original; and (2) RNAV (GPS) RWY 20, original. Revised Class E controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface within a 8.4-mile radius of the St. Michael Airport area is established by this action. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No public comments have been received, thus, the rule is adopted as proposed. The area will be depicted on aeronautical charts for pilot reference. The coordinates for this airspace docket are based on North American Datum 83. The Class E airspace areas designated as 700/1200 foot transition areas are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9M, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 30, 2004, and effective September 16, 2004, 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 revision to 14 CFR part 71 revises Class E airspace at St. Michael, Alaska. Additional Class E airspace is being created to accommodate aircraft executing new instrument procedures and will be depicted on aeronautical charts for pilot reference. The intended effect of this rule is to provide adequate controlled airspace for IFR operations at St. Michael Airport, St. Michael, Alaska. PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 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. The FAA’s authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle 1, section 106 describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency’s authority. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart 1, Section 40103, Sovereignty and use of airspace. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to ensure the safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because it creates Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft executing new and existing instrument procedures for the St. Michael Airport and represents the FAA’s continuing effort to safely and efficiently use the navigable airspace.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On Monday, February 7, 2005, the FAA proposed to revise part 71 of 
the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to revise the Class E 
airspace upward from 700 ft. above the surface at St. Michael, AK (70 
FR 6381). The action was proposed in order to add Class E airspace 
sufficient in size to contain aircraft while executing two new SIAPs 
and a textual departure procedure for the St. Michael Airport. The new 
approaches are (1) Area Navigation-Global Positioning System (RNAV GPS) 
Runway 2, original; and (2) RNAV (GPS) RWY 20, original. Revised Class 
E controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface 
within a 8.4-mile radius of the St. Michael Airport area is established 
by this action. Interested parties were invited to participate in this 
rulemaking proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to 
the FAA. No public comments have been received, thus, the rule is 
adopted as proposed.
    The area will be depicted on aeronautical charts for pilot 
reference. The coordinates for this airspace docket are based on North 
American Datum 83. The Class E airspace areas designated as 700/1200 
foot transition areas are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 
7400.9M, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 30, 
2004, and effective September 16, 2004, 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 revision to 14 CFR part 71 revises Class E airspace at St. 
Michael, Alaska. Additional Class E airspace is being created to 
accommodate aircraft executing new instrument procedures and will be 
depicted on aeronautical charts for pilot reference. The intended 
effect of this rule is to provide adequate controlled airspace for IFR 
operations at St. Michael Airport, St. Michael, Alaska.
    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.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is 
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle 1, section 106 
describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, 
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's 
authority.
    This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in 
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart 1, Section 40103, Sovereignty and use of 
airspace. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing 
regulations to ensure the safe and efficient use of the navigable 
airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because 
it creates Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft 
executing new and existing instrument procedures for the St. Michael 
Airport and represents the FAA's continuing effort to safely and 
efficiently use the navigable airspace.
