ACTION: Final rule. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This action establishes a Class E airspace area at the new Clay County Regional Airport, Mosby, MO, with a projected opening in late 1996. The FAA has developed Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAP) to accommodate a planned Global Positioning System (GPS) and a Non-directional Radio Beacon (NDB) at the new Clay County Regional Airport. This action will provide for controlled airspace necessary for aircraft executing the SIAPs at the new airport. EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, October 10, 1996.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: History On August 2, 1996, the FAA proposed to amend Part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR Part 71) by establishing Class E airspace at the new Clay County Regional Airport, Mosby, MO (61 FR 40365). The proposed action would provide controlled airspace to accommodate the new SIAP to Clay County Regional 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. Class E airspace areas extending from 700 feet or more above the surface of the earth are published in paragraphs 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9D, dated September 4, 1996, and effective September 16, 1996, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designation listed in this documented will be published subsequently in the order. The Rule This amendment to Part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR Part 71) establishes the Class E airspace area at Mosby, MO, by providing additional controlled airspace for aircraft executing the new SIAP to the 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. 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.
