September 15, 2006, is amended as follows: * The Rule Paragraph 6002 Class E2 Airspace. This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by amending the ARP in the Class E2 airspace legal description of Provo Municipal Airport, UT, and changing it to coincide with the Class D airspace legal description. Accordingly, since this action only involves a change in the airport’s legal description of the Provo, UT, Class E2 airspace area, and does not involve a change in the dimensions or operating requirements of that airspace, notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 533(b) are unnecessary. 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 Department of Transportation (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, would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. * * * * * * Issued in College Park, Georgia, on July 13, 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: hsrobinson on PROD1PC70 with RULES History There is a discrepancy between the Airport Reference Point (ARP) of the Class E2 airspace area at Provo Municipal Airport, UT, and the Class D ARP. The ARP of the Class E2 airspace is amended to correspond with the Class D airspace ARP. In addition, the Class E2 airspace legal description is changed to coincide with the Class D legal description.

The action was proposed in order to create Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft while executing two new Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs), one new Standard Instrument Departure (SID) and a published departure procedure (DP) for the Willow Airport. The new approaches are (1) Area Navigation (Global Positioning System) (RNAV (GPS)) RWY 13, Original and (2) RNAV (GPS) RWY 31, Original. The SID is named the Big Lake One Departure. The DP is unnamed and will be listed in the front of the U.S. Terminal Procedures publication for Alaska. Class E controlled airspace extending upward from 700 ft. and 1,200 ft. above the surface in the Willow 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. One comment was received. The commenter approved of the proposed action but would like to ‘‘get the Class E down to the surface.’’ A surface area had been considered for the Willow Airport, but was deemed too restrictive for the vast majority of local operators. There are 11 airports within the area that would be encompassed by a standard surface area. The pilots at these airports are typically flying exclusively under Visual Flight Rules (VFR). The demand for Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) usage of SIAPs to the Willow Airport is very low. A surface area would require increased visibility and communications requirements, as well as the necessity to obtain ATC clearances for operations to/from these airports, and is not warranted at this time. The SIAP minima will contain IFR traffic in Class E airspace as proposed. The commenter also offered a suggestion to place a VOR in the Willow area to enable VOR SIAP(s). This suggestion will not be adopted due to E:\FR\FM\01AUR1.SGM 01AUR1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On June 7, 2006, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the Federal 
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by establishing Class E airspace 
at Mooresville, NC, (71 FR 32876). This action provides adequate Class 
E airspace for IFR operations at Lake Norman Airpark. Designations for 
Class E airspace areas extending upward from 700 feet or more above the 
surface of the earth are published in FAA Order 7400.9N, dated 
September 1, 2005, and effective September 16, 2005, which is 
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E designations 
listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order.
    Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking 
proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. 
No comments objecting to the proposal were received.

The Rule

    This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 
CFR part 71) establishes Class E airspace at Mooresville, NC.
    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 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.
