SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On October 24, 1995, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the 
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to amend Class E airspace 
at St. George, Utah, to accommodate a new GPS SIAP to Runway 34 at St. 
George Municipal Airport (60 FR 54457). 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 errors 
(corrected herein) in geographical coordinates of the airspace 
description. 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 amends 
Class E airspace at St. George, Utah. 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.
