The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by establishing Class E airspace at Carson City, NV. Controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate aircraft using the new RNAV (GPS) SIAP at Carson City Airport. This action would enhance the safety and management of aircraft operations at Carson City Airport, Carson City, NV. Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9R, signed August 15, 2007, and effective September 15, 2007, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1.

    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves

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

``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44

the authority for the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation
