History On March 1, 2005, the U.S. Army requested that the FAA take action to establish R–5601F. Specifically, the requested action would provide additional airspace needed to support new high angle air-to-ground training E:\FR\FM\02NOP1.SGM 02NOP1 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 211 / Wednesday, November 2, 2005 / Proposed Rules requirements for Air Force, Navy, and Marine aircraft operating over the Falcon Bombing Range. Specifically, R– 5601F would provide additional maneuvering area needed for aircraft conducting training in adjacent restricted areas R–5601B and R–5601C which are located over the West Range Target Area and the Falcon Bombing Range, respectively. This action would also enhance Fort Sill’s ability to host joint training. The Proposal At the request of the U.S. Army, the FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 73 to establish R–5601F adjacent to and north of R–5601B and R–5601C. Establishment of the new restricted area would provide additional airspace needed to support new high angle air-to-ground training requirements for Air Force, Navy, and Marine aircraft operating over the Falcon Bombing Range and would enhance Fort Sill’s ability to host joint training. The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. Therefore, this proposed 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 proposed 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. Environmental Review This proposal will be subjected to an environmental analysis in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

History

    On March 1, 2005, the U.S. Army requested that the FAA take action 
to establish R-5601F. Specifically, the requested action would provide 
additional airspace needed to support new high angle air-to-ground 
training

requirements for Air Force, Navy, and Marine aircraft operating over 
the Falcon Bombing Range. Specifically, R-5601F would provide 
additional maneuvering area needed for aircraft conducting training in 
adjacent restricted areas R-5601B and R-5601C which are located over 
the West Range Target Area and the Falcon Bombing Range, respectively. 
This action would also enhance Fort Sill's ability to host joint 
training.

The Proposal

    At the request of the U.S. Army, the FAA is proposing an amendment 
to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 73 to establish 
R-5601F adjacent to and north of R-5601B and R-5601C. Establishment of 
the new restricted area would provide additional airspace needed to 
support new high angle air-to-ground training requirements for Air 
Force, Navy, and Marine aircraft operating over the Falcon Bombing 
Range and would enhance Fort Sill's ability to host joint training.
    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves 
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and 
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. 
Therefore, this proposed 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 proposed 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.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subjected to an environmental analysis in 
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies 
and Procedures,'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
