Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 94-AWA-6]


Modification of the Flint Bishop International Airport, MI, 
Madison Dane County Regional Airport-Truax Field, WI, Peoria, Greater 
Peoria Regional Airport, IL, Toledo Express Airport, OH, Columbus AFB, 
MS, and the Jackson International Airport, MS, Class C Airspace Areas 
and Establishment of the Madison Dane County Regional Airport-Truax 
Field, WI, and Jackson International Airport, MS, Class E Airspace 
Areas

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule modifies the Flint Bishop International Airport, MI, 
Madison Dane County Regional Airport-Truax Field, WI, Peoria, Greater 
Peoria Regional Airport, IL, Jackson International Airport, MS, Toledo 
Express Airport, OH, and the Columbus AFB, MS, Class C airspace areas. 
The effective hours are amended to coincide with the associated radar 
approach control facility's hours of operation. Class C airspace areas 
are predicated on an operational air traffic control tower (ATCT) 
serviced by a radar approach control facility. The designated 
boundaries and altitudes of these Class C airspace areas will remain as 
they currently exist. In addition, this action establishes Class E 
airspace at Madison Dane County Regional Airport-Truax Field, WI, and 
Jackson International Airport, MS, when the associated radar approach 
control facility is not in operation. Also, Class E airspace is 
established as an extension to the Madison Dane County Regional 
Airport-Truax Field, WI, Class C airspace area to provide controlled 
airspace to instrument operations.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, March 30, 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On January 13, 1995, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the 
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to modify the Flint 
Bishop International Airport, MI, Madison Dane County Regional Airport-
Truax Field, WI, Peoria, Greater Peoria Regional Airport, IL, Toledo 
Express Airport, OH, Columbus AFB, MS, and the Jackson International 
Airport, MS, Class C airspace areas and establish the Madison Dane 
County Regional Airport-Truax Field, WI, and the Jackson International 
Airport, MS, Class E airspace areas (60 FR 3109). 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. It was also determined that Class E 
extensions are needed for instrument approach procedures at Madison 
Dane County Regional Airport-Truax Field, WI. Therefore, this action 
establishes Class E3 airspace to coincide with the effective hours of 
the Madison Dane County Regional Airport-Truax Field, WI, Class C 
airspace area. Except for editorial changes, and establishment of the 
E3 designation for Madison Dane County Regional Airport-Truax Field, 
[[Page 7440]] this amendment is the same as that proposed in the 
notice. Class C, Class E2, and Class E3 airspace designations are 
published in paragraphs 4000, 6002 and 6003, respectively, 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 C and E airspace 
designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in 
the Order.

The Rule

    This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 
CFR part 71) modifies the Flint Bishop International Airport, MI, 
Madison Dane County Regional Airport-Truax Field, WI, Peoria, Greater 
Peoria Regional Airport, IL, Toledo Express Airport, OH, Columbus AFB, 
MS, and the Jackson International Airport, MS, Class C airspace areas 
by amending the effective hours to coincide with the associated radar 
approach control facility's hours of operation. The designated 
boundaries and altitudes of these Class C airspace areas will not 
change. In addition, this action establishes the Madison Dane County 
Regional-Truax Field Airport, WI, Class E2 and E3 airspace areas and 
the Jackson International Airport, MS, Class E2 airspace area.
    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.
