SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On August 23, 1994, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the

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

Wyoming, Class E airspace designation (59 FR 43311). Interested parties

were invited to participate in the rulemaking proceeding by submitting

written comments on the proposal. No comments were received.

During an airspace review an error was discovered in the airspace

description for Class E airspace at Sheridan, Wyoming. This action

corrects that error. The coordinates for this airspace docket are based

on North American Datum 83. Class E airspace is published in Paragraph

6002 of FAA Order 7400.9B dated July 18, 1994, and effective September

16, 1994, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class

E airspace designation listed in this document will be published

subsequently in the Order.

The Rule

This amendment to part 71 of Federal Aviation Regulations amends

Class E airspace at Sheridan, Wyoming. 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 anicipated 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 entites

under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71
