SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On September 2, 2003, the FAA
published in the Federal Register a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
proposing to realign V–233 northeast of
the Capital VORTAC (68 FR 52150).
This change was needed due to the
pending relocation of the Capital
VORTAC. This relocation will result in
a change of the VORTAC radials used in
the legal description of V–233; but
would not have changed the legal
description of any other airways or jet
routes because, at the time that the
NPRM was issued, the FAA did not plan
to change the name of the VORTAC.
Interested parties were invited to
participate in this rulemaking effort by
submitting written comments on the
proposal. No comments were received
in response to the proposal.
Subsequent to the issuance of the
NPRM and in the interest of safety, a
decision was made to change the name
of the ‘‘Capital VORTAC’’ to the
‘‘Spinner VORTAC’’. Because the name
of the VORTAC is contained in the legal
description of Federal Airways V–9, V–
50, V–67, V–69, V–129, V–173 and V–
233; and Jet Routes J–35, J–80, J–101
and J–137, the legal descriptions must
be changed.
Federal airways are published in
paragraph 6010(a) of FAA Order
7400.9M dated August 30, 2004, and
effective September 16, 2004, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Federal airways listed in this
document will be published
subsequently in the order.
The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by
revising the legal descriptions for
Federal Airways V–9, V–50, V–67, V–
69, V–129, V–173 and V–233; and Jet
Routes J–35, J–80, J–101 and J–137 over
the Springfield, IL, area. The FAA is
taking this action due to the relocation
and renaming of the Capitol VORTAC
and to enhance the management of
aircraft operations over the Springfield,
IL area.
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 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 will only affect air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when
promulgated, will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 73 by
revoking R–7104, Vieques Island, PR.
The FAA is taking this action at the
request of the U.S. Navy, which no
longer has a requirement for the
airspace.
Since this action revokes restricted
airspace, the solicitation of comments
would only delay the return of airspace
to public use without offering any
meaningful right or benefit to any
segment of the public; therefore, notice
and public procedure under 5 U.S.C.
553(b) are unnecessary.
