14 CFR Part 71
[Airspace Docket No. 94-ASO-19]
Establishment of Class E Airspace; Georgetown, KY
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This amendment establishes Class E airspace at Georgetown, KY.
A VOR/DME RWY 3 Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) has been
developed for the Georgetown Scott County-Marshall Field Airport.
Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface
(AGL) is needed to accommodate this SIAP and for instrument flight
rules (IFR) operations at the airport. The operating status of the
airport will change from VFR to include IFR operations concurrent with
publication of the SIAP.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, March 30, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Ralph C. Bixby, Airspace Section, System Management Branch, Air Traffic
Division, Federal Aviation Administration, P.O. Box 20636, Atlanta,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On August 23, 1994, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to establish Class E
airspace at Georgetown, KY, (59 FR 43308). This action is intended to
provide adequate Class E airspace for IFR operations at Georgetown
Scott County-Marshall Field Airport. 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.
The coordinates for this airspace docket are based on North
American Datum 83. This amendment is the same as that proposed in the
notice. Class E airspace areas designated as a surface areas for an
airport are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9B dated July
18, 1994, and effective September 16, 1994. 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
establishes Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet AGL at
Georgetown, Ky, to accomodate the VOR/DME RWY 3 SIAP and for IFR
operations at the Georgetown Scott County-Marshall Field Airport. The
operating status of the airport will be changed from VFR to include IFR
operations concurrent with publication of the SIAP.
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.
