SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, Section 106
describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII,
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's
authority. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
the airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the
efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority as it modifies the air traffic service route.

History

VOR Federal airway V-552 extends between Beaumont, TX, and
Monroeville, AL. In that segment of the airway between the Picayune,
MS, VOR/DME and the CAESA, MS, navigation fix, restricted area R-4403F
infringes on the 4 nautical mile (NM) wide protected airspace on the
south side of the airway. The northernmost point of R-4403F is
approximately 3.73 NM from the centerline of the airway instead of the
required 4 NM clearance. R-4403F is subject to intermittent use by
Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) issued at least 24 hours in advance. This
action amends the V-552 airway description to exclude the airspace in
R-4403F from the airway while the restricted area is activated.
VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010(a) of FAA Order
7400.9Z dated August 6, 2015, and effective September 15, 2015, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The VOR Federal airway
listed in this document will be subsequently amended in the Order.

[[Page 38581]]

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

This document amends FAA Order 7400.9Z, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2015, and effective September 15,
2015. FAA Order 7400.9Z is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.9Z lists Class A, B,
C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and reporting
points.

The Rule

The FAA is amending Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14
CFR) part 71 by adding the words ``The airspace within R-4403F is
excluded during its times of use'' to the regulatory text of VOR
Federal airway V-552. Because this amendment is necessary to ensure the
safe separation of airway traffic from restricted airspace when the
restricted area is active, I find that notice and public procedure
under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impractical and contrary to the public
interest.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

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.
It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
Department of Transportation (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 only affects air traffic procedures
and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated,
does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures,
paragraph 5-6.5a. This airspace action consists of modifying an airway
and it is not expected to cause any potentially significant
environmental impacts, and no extraordinary circumstances exists that
warrant preparation of an environmental assessment.
