DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
14 CFR Part 71
[Airspace Docket No. 93-ANE-34]
Alteration of VOR Federal Airways; ME
agency: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
action: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
summary: This rule modifies Federal Airways V-93 and V-451 located in
Maine. Modifying V-93 and V-451 is necessary because a segment of the
description for each airway utilizes the Navy Brunswick, ME, Very High
Frequency Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC)
facility which is scheduled to be decommissioned on April 28, 1994.
This action also corrects an inadvertent error in the description of V-
451: ``Calverton, RI'' should read ``Calverton, NY.''
effective date: 0901 UTC, April 28, 1994.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On January 12, 1994, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to modify V-93 and V-451
(59 FR 1686). 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. Except
for editorial changes, this amendment is the same as that proposed in
the notice. Domestic VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph
6010(a) of FAA Order 7400.9A dated June 17, 1993, and effective
September 16, 1993, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1
(58 FR 36298; July 6, 1993). The airways listed in this document will
be published subsequently in the Order.
The Rule
This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations
modifies V-93 and V-451. A segment of the description for each airway
utilizes the Navy Brunswick (NHZ) VORTAC which is scheduled to be
decommissioned on April 28, 1994. This action becomes effective
concurrent with the decommissioning of the Navy Brunswick VORTAC. This
action also corrects an inadvertent error in the description of V-451:
``Calverton, RI'' should read ``Calverton, NY.''
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 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.
