[Airspace Docket No. 95-AGL-15]


Modification of Class E Airspace; Alliance, OH, Salem, OH, and 
Youngstown, OH

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action modifies Class E5 airspace at Youngstown-Warren 
Regional Airport, Youngstown, OH and revises the exclusionary language 
in the Class E5 airspace designations for Alliance, OH and Salem, OH, 
due to the closing of the Youngstown Executive Airport, Youngstown, OH, 
on August 15, 1995. The intent of this action is to provide adequate 
controlled airspace for the existing procedures at Youngstown, OH and 
to modify the airspace designations at Alliance and Salem, OH, to 
reflect the closure of Youngstown Executive Airport.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, June 20, 1996.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History

    On February 6, 1996, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the 
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to modify the Class E5 
airspace area at Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport, Youngstown, OH, 
and to modify the language for the Class E5 airspace designations for 
Alliance, OH and Salem, OH.
    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 was received. Class E airspace 
designations for airspace extending upward from 700 feet or more above 
ground level 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

[[Page 19817]]

71.1. The Class E airspace designations 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 the Class E5 airspace at Youngstown-Warren 
Regional Airport, Youngstown, Ohio and revises the language for the 
Class E5 airspace designations for Alliance, OH and Salem, OH. The 
closing of the Youngstown Executive Airport, Youngstown, OH on August 
15, 1995 and deletion of the airport's VOR Runway 11/29 Standard 
Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) require this modification to 
ensure that the procedures at Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport are 
contained within controlled airspace and that the Alliance and Salem, 
OH, Class E airspace designations are appropriately identified.
    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.
