Summary
This notice modifies Class E airspace at Delaware, OH. A Global Positioning System (GPS) Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) to Runway (Rwy) 10, a GPS SIAP to Rwy 28, and a VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) SIAP to Rwy 28, have been developed for Delaware Municipal Airport. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 to 1200 feet above ground level (AGL) is needed to contain aircraft executing the approaches. This action increases the radius of the existing controlled airspace for this airport.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, December 30, 1999.

Supplementary Information
History
On Tuesday, June 22, 1999, the FAA proposed to amend 14 CFR part 71 to modify Class E airspace at Delaware, OH (64 FR 33234). The proposal was to add controlled airspace extending upward from 700 to 1200 feet AGL 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 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 7400.9F dated September 10, 1998, and effective September 16, 1998, 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 Delaware, OH, to accommodate aircraft executing the proposed GPS Rwy 10 SIAP, GPS Rwy 28 SIAP, and VOR Rwy 28 SIAP, at Delaware Municipal Airport by modifying the existing controlled airspace. 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 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.
