SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On August 21, 1995, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the 
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) by modifying class E 
airspace at Leesburg, FL (60 FR 43420). This action would provide 
adequate Class E airspace for IFR operations at the Leesburg Municipal 
Airport.
    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. Designations for 
Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet or more above the 
surface are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9C dated 
August 17, 1995, and effective September 16, 1995. 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) modifies Class E airspace at Leesburg, FL, to accommodate 
a NDB RWY 31 SIAP and for IFR operations at the Leesburg Municipal 
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. 
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.
