DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 95-ACE-5]


Establishment of Class E Airspace, Scott City, KS

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action establishes Class E airspace at Scott City 
Municipal Airport, Scott City, KS. The development of a new standard 
instrument approach procedure (SIAP) at Scott City Municipal Airport, 
Scott City, KS, utilizing the Scott City NDB has made the proposal 
necessary. The intended effect of this action is to provide controlled 
airspace for aircraft executing the SIAP at Scott City, KS. A minor 
correction is being made in the geographic coordinates of the Scott 
City Municipal Airport.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, November 9, 1995.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On May 8, 1995, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the Federal 
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by establishing Class E airspace 
at Scott City, KS (60 FR 30028). The proposed action would provide 
controlled airspace to accommodate an NDB SIAP to Runway 35 at the 
Scott City Municipal Airport. A minor correction is being made in the 
geographic coordinates of the airport.
    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 Scott City, KS, providing 
controlled airspace for aircraft executing the NDB Runway 35 SIAP to 
the Scott City Municipal Airport. This action also corrects the 
geographic position coordinates of the airport.
    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.
