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 updates the using agency for restricted areas R-3007A, R-3007B, 
R-3007C, and R-3007D, Townsend, GA, to reflect the current organization 
responsible for the restricted areas.

The Rule

    This rule amends title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 
73 by updating the using agency name for restricted areas R-3007A, R-
3007B, R-3007C, and R-3007D, Townsend, GA, by removing the words ``ANG, 
Savannah Combat Readiness Training Center, GA'' and adding the words 
``USMC, Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, SC.'' The name change 
reflects the current organization assigned using agency 
responsibilities for the restricted areas. This is an administrative 
change that does not affect the boundaries, designated altitudes, or 
activities conducted within the restricted areas; therefore, notice and 
public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this action 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 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 of updating the using 
agency information for restricted areas R-3007A, R-3007B, R-3007C, and 
R-3007D, Townsend, GA qualifies for categorical exclusion under the 
National Environmental Policy Act in accordance

[[Page 29230]]

with FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures, 
paragraph 5-6.5.d, ``Modification of the technical description of 
special use airspace (SUA) that does not alter the dimensions, 
altitudes, or times of designation of the airspace (such as changes in 
designation of the controlling or using agency, or correction of 
typographical errors).'' This airspace action is an administrative 
change to the using agency names for restricted areas R-3007A, R-3007B, 
R-3007C, and R-3007D to update the using agency name. It does not alter 
the dimensions, altitudes, time of designation, or use of the airspace. 
Therefore, this airspace action is not expected to result in any 
significant environmental impacts. In accordance with FAAO 1050.1F, 
paragraph 5-2 regarding Extraordinary Circumstances, this action has 
been reviewed for factors and circumstances in which a normally 
categorically excluded action may have a significant environmental 
impact requiring further analysis, and it is determined that no 
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an 
environmental assessment.
