SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On March 19, 1996, the President, Wentzville Airport, Inc.
requested cancellation of the instrument approach procedure and advised
that the airport was converted to a private-use airport in August 1995.
Based on that request the Class E controlled airspace area is no longer
necessary.
The Rule
This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14
CFR part 71) removes the Class E airspace at
[[Page 4633]]
Wentzville, Missouri, extending upward from 700 feet above the surface.
The cancellation of this SIAP on April 23, 1996, at Wentzville Airport
has made this proposal necessary.
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 12886; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 CFR 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.
