ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This notice proposes to
amend the Class E airspace area in the
Binghampton, NY area. The
development of multiple area navigation
(RNAV) Standard Instrument Approach
Procedures (SIAP) for numerous airports
within the Binghampton, NY area with
approved Instrument Flight Rules (IFR)
operations and the resulting overlap of
designated Class E–5 airspace have
made this proposal necessary. The
proposal would correct the name of the
airport and update the Airport
Reference Point (ARP). The proposal
would consolidate the Class E–5
airspace designations for six airports in
the Binghampton area and result in the
rescission of five separate Class E–5
descriptions through separate
rulemaking action. The area would be
depicted on aeronautical charts for pilot
reference.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before September 22, 2005.
ADDRESSES: Send comments on the
proposal to the Docket Management
System, U.S. Department of
Transportation, Room Plaza 401, 400
Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC
20590–0001. You must identify the
docket number FAA–2005–22100/

disposition in person in the Dockets

decisions on the proposal. Comments
are specifically invited on the overall
regulatory, economic, environmental,
and energy-related aspects of the
proposal. Communications should

request to the Office of Air Traffic
Airspace Management, ATA–400, 800
Independence Avenue, SW.,

(202) 267–8783. Communications must

placed on a mailing list for future
NPRMs should contact the FAA Office
of Rulemaking, (202) 267–9677 to
request a copy of Advisory Circular No.

procedure.
The Proposal
The FAA is considering an
amendment to Part 71 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to
amend the Class E airspace within the
Binghamton, NY area. The proposal
would consolidate the following airport
Class E–5 airspace designations into the
Binghamton, NY designation: Cortland,
NY, Cortland County-Chase Field
VerDate jul<14>2003
16:15 Aug 22, 2005
Jkt 205001
Airport (N03); Ithaca, NY, Tompkins
County Airport (ITH); Elmira, NY,
Elmira/Corning Regional Airport (ELM);
Endicott, NY, Tri-Cities Airport (CZG);
and Sayre, PA, Robert Parker Hospital
Heliport. This action would result in the
rescission of five Class E–5 designations
under a separate docket. The affected
airspace would subsequently be
incorporated into the Binghamton, NY
description. The airspace will be
defined to accommodate the approaches
and contain IFR operations to and from
those airports. This change would have
no impact on aircraft operations since
the type of airspace designation is not
changing. Furthermore, the IFR
approach procedures for the individual
airports within the are would not be
affected. Class E airspace designations
for airspace areas extending upward
from 700 ft. or more above the surface
are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA
Order 7400.9M, 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 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.
Therefore, this proposed 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 would only affect air
traffic procedures and air navigation, it
is certified that this proposed rule
would not have significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
