SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On May 4, 2006, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice 
of proposed rulemaking to revise Class E airspace at Eagle, CO (71 FR 
26284). This action would provide additional controlled airspace for 
the safety of IFR aircraft executing a new published ILS or LOC DME 
SIAP at Eagle County Regional Airport. Interested parties were invited 
to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments 
on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6002 and 
6005 of FAA Order 7400.9N, dated September 1, 2005, and effective 
September 15, 2005, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. 
The Class E airspace designations listed in this document will be 
published subsequently in that Order.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71 by revising Class E airspace at Eagle, CO. Additional 
controlled airspace is necessary for the safety of IFR aircraft 
executing the new ILS or LOC DME SIAP at Eagle County Regional 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 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, when promulgated, will not have a significant 
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the 
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
