SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History

    On September 13, 1995, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the 
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to establish Class E 
airspace at Baker, Montana, to accommodate a new instrument approach 
procedure at Baker Municipal Airport (60 FR 47503). Interested parties 
were invited to participate in the rulemaking proceeding by submitting 
written comments on the proposal. No comments were received.
    This action is the same as the proposal except for an error 
(corrected herein) in the location of the Bowman Municipal Airport in 
Montana rather than North Dakota. The coordinates for this airspace 
docket are based on North American Datum 83. Class E airspace areas 
extending upward from 700 feet or more above the surface of the earth 
are published in paragraph 6005 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 E airspace listed in this document 
will be published subsequently in the Order.

The Rule

    This amendment to part 71 of Federal Aviation Regulations 
establishes Class E airspace at Baker, Montana. 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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71
