-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action modifies Class E airspace to Akron, OH. A Standard
Instrument Approach Procedure has been developed for Wingfoot Lake
Airship Operations Airport. Controlled airspace extending upward from
700 feet or more above the surface of the earth is needed to contain
aircraft executing this approach. This action increases the areas of
existing controlled airspace for Akron, OH.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, December 22, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On Friday July 1, 2005, the FAA proposed to amend 14 CFR part 71 to
modify Class F airspace at Akron, OH (70 FR 38055). The proposal was to
modify controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet or more above
the surface of the earth to contain Instrument Flight Rules 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
designations for airspace areas extending upward from 700 feet or more
above the surface of the earth are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA
Order 7400.9N dated September 1, 2005, and effective September 16,
2005, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designation 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
Akron, OH, to accommodate aircraft executing instrument flight
procedures into and out of Wingfoot Lake Airship Operations Airport.
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 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 want 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.
