SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History

    On June 15, 1995, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the Federal 
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by establishing a Class D 
airspace area at Chandler Municipal Airport, Chandler, AZ. (60 FR 
31423). The effect of this action is to provide adequate Class D 
airspace for aircraft executing an instrument approach procedure at 
Chandler Municipal Airport.
    Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking 
proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. 
No comments to the proposal were received. Class D airspace 
designations are published in paragraph 5000 of FAA Order 7400.9C, 
dated August 17, 1995, and effective September 16, 1995, which is 
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D 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 a Class D airspace area at Chandler Municipal 
Airport, AZ. This action will provide adequate Class D airspace for 
aircraft executing instrument approach procedures at Chandler Municipal 
Airport, Chandler, AZ.
    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 10034; 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.
