DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 93-ANM-32]

Amendment of Class E Airspace; Roosevelt, Utah

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action amends the Roosevelt, Utah, Class E airspace.

Controlled airspace extending from 700 feet above ground level (AGL) is

necessary for a new instrument approach procedure at Roosevelt

Municipal Airport, Roosevelt, Utah. Airspace reclassification, in

effect as of September 16, 1993, has discontinued the use of the term

``transition area,'' replacing it with the designation ``Class E

airspace.'' The airspace will be depicted on aeronautical charts for

pilot reference.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, March 15, 1994.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On October 14, 1993, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by amending the

Roosevelt, Utah, Class E airspace (58 FR 53167). 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.

Airspace reclassification, in effect as of September 16, 1993, has

discontinued the use of the term ``transition area,'' and airspace

extending upward from 700 feet or more above the surface of the earth

is now Class E airspace. This amendment is the same as that proposed in

the notice except during the comment period an error was discovered in

the coordinates of one segment of the description. The error is

corrected in this document. Class E airspace designations for airspace

areas extending 700 feet or more above the surface of the earth are

published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9A dated June 17, 1993,

and effective September 16, 1993, which is incorporated by reference in

14 CFR 71.1 (58 FR 36298, July 6, 1993). The Class E airspace

designation listed in this document will be published subsequently in

the Order.

The Rule

This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations

amends the Class E airspace at Roosevelt, Utah, to provide controlled

airspace for aircraft executing a new instrument approach procedure at

Roosevelt Municipal Airport, Roosevelt, Utah.

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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71
