SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History

    On Monday, August 30, 2004, the FAA proposed to amend 14 CFR part 
71 to modify Class D and Class E airspace at Prescott, AZ. (69 FR 
52839). 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 D 
airspace designations are published in paragraph 5000 and Class E 
surface area airspace designations are published in paragraph 6002 of 
FAA Order 7400.9M dated August 30, 2004, and effective September 16, 
2004, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D 
and 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 D and Class E 
airspace at Prescott, AZ. 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.
