The Proposal

    The FAA is considering an amendment to Part 71 of the Federal 
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR Part 71) to amend Class D airspace at 
Hollywood, FL. A GPS RWY 9R Standard Instrument Approach Procedure 
(SIAP) has been developed for North Perry

Airport. Additional controlled airspace extending upward from the 
surface is needed to accommodate this SIAP and for instrument flight 
rules (IFR) operations at North Perry Airport. The operating status of 
the airport will change from VFR to include IFR operations concurrent 
with publication of this SIAP. Class D airspace designations are 
published in Paragraph 5000 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 document would be published subsequently in the Order.
    The FAA has determined that this proposed 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, when promulgated, will not have a significant 
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the 
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
