After the close of the comment period, the FAA will publish a document in the Federal Register indicating that no adverse or negative comments were received and confirming the date on which the final rule will become effective. If the FAA does receive, within the comment period, an adverse or negative comment, or written notice of intent to submit such a comment, a document withdrawing the direct final rule will be published in the Federal Register, and a notice of proposed rulemaking may be published with new comment period. Comment Invited Interested parties are invited to participate in this rulemaking by submitting such written data, views, or arguments, as they may desire. Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the views and suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing reasoned regulatory decisions on the proposal. Comments are specifically invited on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic, environmental, and energy-related aspects of the proposal. Communications should identify both docket numbers and be submitted in triplicate to the address listed above. Commenters wishing the FAA to acknowledge receipt of their comments on this notice must submit with those comments a self-addressed, stamped postcard on which the following statement is made: ‘‘Comments to Docket No. FAA–2005–21703/Airspace Docket No. 05–ACE–19.’’ The postcard will be date/time stamped and returned to the commenter. Agency Findings The regulations adopted herein will not have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. Therefore, it is determined that this final rule does not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. 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 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 VerDate jul<14>2003 14:34 Jul 11, 2005 Jkt 205001 routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of the airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority since it contains aircraft executing instrument approach procedures to Forbes Field.

Establishment of Class E Airspace, Mariposa, CA

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This final rule will establish Class E airspace at Mariposa, 
CA. New Area Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning System (GPS) Standard 
Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) have been developed at Mariposa-
Yosemite Airport. Additional Class E airspace extending upward from 700 
feet above the surface is necessary for the safety of instrument flight 
rules (IFR) aircraft executing these new SIAPs and transitioning 
between the terminal and en route environment. This action also 
corrects a small error in the airport latitude and longitude 
description.

DATES: 0901 UTC August 04, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On November 23, 2004, the FAA published in the Federal Register a

[[Page 39916]]

notice of proposed rule making to establish Class E airspace at 
Mariposa, CA (69 FR 68104). New RNAV GPS SIAPs at Mariposa-Yosemite 
Airport, Mariposa, CA, makes it necessary to increase the controlled 
airspace. Interested parties were invited to participate in this 
rulemaking proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to 
the FAA. No comments were received. Class E airspace designations are 
published in paragraph 6005 FAA Order 7400.9M dated August 30, 2004, 
and effective September 16, 2004, which is incorporated by reference in 
14 CFR part 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in this 
document will be published subsequently in that order.

The Rule

    This amendment to 14 CFR part 71 establishes Class E airspace at 
Mariposa-Yosemite Airport, Mariposa, CA. New RNAV GPS SIAPs at 
Mariposa-Yosemite Airport make it necessary to establish the Class E 
Airspace. This controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet or 
more above the surface is necessary for the containment and safety of 
IFR aircraft transitioning to/from the en route environment and 
executing these RNAV GPS SIAP procedures. The amendment also corrects 
an error in the airport latitude and longitude description.
    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 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, when promulgated, will not have a significant 
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the 
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
