DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 95-ACE-2]


Establishment of Class E Airspace; Scribner, NE

agency: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

action: Final rule.

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

summary: This action establishes Class E airspace at Scribner State 
Airport, Scribner, NE. The development of a new standard instrument 
approach procedure (SIAP) at Scribner State Airport, Scribner, NE, 
utilizing the Scribner, NE, Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range 
(VOR) as a navigational aid, has made the proposal necessary. The 
intended effect of this action is to provide controlled airspace for 
aircraft executing the SIAP at Scribner, NE. A minor correction is 
being made by enlarging the radius around the Scribner State Airport 
and excluding that airspace within the Fremont, NE, Class E airspace 
area.

effective date: 0901 UTC, November 9, 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On May 24, 1995, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the Federal 
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by establishing Class E airspace 
at Scribner, NE (60 FR 27452). The proposed action would provide 
controlled airspace to accommodate a VOR SIAP to Runway 17/35 at the 
Scribner State Airport. A minor correction is being made to enlarge the 
radius around the airport and to exclude that airspace within the 
Fremont, NE, Class E airspace area.
    Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking 
proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. 
No comments were received. Class E airspace areas extending from 700 
feet or more above the surface of the earth are published in paragraphs 
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 will be published 
subsequently in the Order.

The Rule

    This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 
CFR part 71) establishes Class E airspace at Scribner, NE, providing 
controlled airspace for aircraft executing the VOR Runway 17/35 SIAP to 
the Scribner State Airport. This action also corrects the radius around 
the airport and excludes that airspace within the Fremont, NE, Class E 
airspace.
    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. 
Therefore, this regulation--(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.
