SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On March 28, 1995, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the Federal 
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by increasing the Class E 
airspace in the vicinity of Claremont Municipal Airport, Claremont, NH 
(60 FR 15885). The proposed action would provide adequate controlled 
airspace for the new GPS runway 29, Standard Instrument Approach 
Procedure at Claremont Municipal Airport, Claremont, NH, by adding to 
the basic radius of Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet 
above the surface, airspace within 2 miles on each side of the 094 deg. 
bearing from the Claremont Nondirectional Beacon (NDB) extending from 
the 5.5-mile radius to 15.3 miles east of the Claremont NDB. The 
proposed action would not affect that airspace within the Springfield, 
VT, Concord, NH, and Lebanon, NH, Class E areas.
    Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking 
proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. 
No comments on the proposal were received. Class E airspace 
designations for airspace areas extending upward from 700 feet or more 
above the surface of the earth are published in paragraph 6005 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 would be published subsequently in 
the Order.
    The FAA has determined that this proposed 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.
