SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On Thursday, April 15, 2004, the FAA proposed to amend 14 CFR part 
71 to modify Class E airspace at Urbana, OH (69 FR 19958). The proposal 
was to modify controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above 
the surface of the earth to contain Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) 
operations in controlled airspace during portions of the terminal 
operation and while transiting between the enroute and terminal 
environments.
    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 upward from 700 feet or more above the surface of the 
earth are published in paragraph 6005, of FAA Order 7400.9L dated 
September 2, 2003, and effective September 16, 2003, which is 
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace 
designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in 
the order.

The Rule

    This amendment to 14 CFR part 71 modifies Class E airspace at 
Urbana, OH, to accommodate aircraft executing instrument flight 
procedures into and out of Grimes Field. The area will be depicted on 
appropriate aeronautical charts.
    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 proposed 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.
