SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On October 1, 1993, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the 
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by amending the Moab, 
Utah, Class E airspace (58 FR 51257). 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.
    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 Moab, Utah, to provide controlled 
airspace for aircraft executing a new instrument approach procedure at 
Canyonlands Field Airport, Moab, 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 effect 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

    Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).
