DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 93-ANE-76]

 

Establishment of Class E Airspace; Claremont, NH

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action establishes Class E airspace at Claremont, NH. 
This action is a result of a review of a nondirectional beacon (NDB) 
standard instrument approach procedure (SIAP) for Claremont Airport, 
which showed a need for controlled airspace upward from 700 feet above 
the surface to contain instrument flight rules (IFR) operations 
executing that NDB SIAP at the airport. The intended effect of this 
action is to provide adequate Class E airspace for IFR operators who 
will be executing the NDB SIAP at Claremont, NH.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, October 13, 1994.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On March 11, 1994, the FAA published a Notice of Proposed 
Rulemaking (NPRM) to amend part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations 
(14 CFR part 71) to establish Class E airspace at Claremont, NH (59 FR 
11564). The proposal was prompted by a review of a proposed 
nondirectional beacon (NDB) standard instrument approach procedure 
(SIAP) for Claremont Airport, which showed a need for controlled 
airspace upward from 700 feet above the surface to contain instrument 
flight rules (IFR) operations executing that NDB SIAP at the airport. 
The intended effect of this action is to provide adequate Class E 
airspace for IFR operators who will be executing the proposed NDB SIAP 
at Claremont, NH.
    Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking 
proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal of the FAA. 
No comments on the proposal were received.
    Class E airspace designations for airspace areas extending upward 
from 700 feet or more above ground level 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 establishment listed in this document will be 
published in the Order.

The Rule

    This amendment of part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations 
establishes the Class E airspace at Claremont, NH. This action is a 
result of a review of a proposed nondirectional beacon (NDB) standard 
instrument approach procedure (SIAP) for Claremont Airport which showed 
a need for controlled airspace upward from 700 feet above the surface 
to contain instrument flight rules (IFR) operations executing that NDB 
SIAP at the airport. The intended effect of this action is to provide 
adequate Class E airspace for IFR operators who will be executing the 
proposed NDB SIAP at Claremont, NH.
    The FAA has determined that this regulation involves only an 
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and 
routine amendments are necessary to keep these regulations 
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 economic cost will be so 
minimal. Since this is a routine matter that will only affect air 
traffic procedures and air navigation, the FAA certifies 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.
