ACTION: Interim final rule; reopening of comment period. AGENCY: We are reopening the comment period for our interim final rule that will establish a herd certification program to control chronic wasting disease (CWD) in farmed or captive cervids in the United States. The interim final rule requested comment on our decision that our regulations will set minimum requirements for the interstate movement of farmed or captive cervids but not preempt State or local laws or regulations that are more restrictive than our regulations, except any such laws or regulations that prohibit or further restrict the transit through a State of deer, elk, and moose that are otherwise eligible for interstate movement. This action will allow interested persons additional time to prepare and submit comments on our preemption policy with respect to CWD. This document also indicates that we will consider comments on issues other than our preemption policy for future rulemaking. SUMMARY: We will consider all comments that we receive on or before August 13, 2012. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments by either of the following methods: • Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to https://www.regulations.gov/ #!documentDetail;D=APHIS-2006-01180199. • Postal Mail/Commercial Delivery: Send your comment to Docket No. 00– tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with RULES DATES: VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:50 Jul 19, 2012 Jkt 226001 108–8, Regulatory Analysis and Development, PPD, APHIS, Station 3A– 03.8, 4700 River Road Unit 118, Riverdale, MD 20737–1238.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 13, 2012, we published in the Federal Register (77 FR 35542–35571, Docket No. 00–108–8) an interim final rule that will establish a herd certification program to control chronic wasting disease (CWD) in farmed or captive cervids in the United States. The interim final rule will be effective on August 13, 2012. In the interim final rule, we requested comments specifically on our decision not to preempt State and local laws and regulations that are more restrictive than our regulations with respect to CWD, except any such laws or regulations that prohibit or further restrict the transit through a State of deer, elk, and moose that are otherwise eligible for interstate movement. That decision was discussed in section III of the Background section of the interim final rule, under the heading ‘‘APHIS’ Decision Not to Preempt More Restrictive State Requirements on Farmed or Captive Cervids With Respect to CWD,’’ beginning on 77 FR 35545. Comments on our decisions regarding preemption of State and local laws and regulations were required to be received on or before July 13, 2012. We are reopening the comment period on Docket No. 00–108–8 until August 13, 2012. This action will allow interested persons additional time to prepare and submit comments. We will also consider all comments received between July 14, 2012, and the date of this notice. The interim final rule indicated that we will publish another document in the Federal Register after the comment period closes that will include a discussion of any comments we receive on our preemption policy and any PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 42625 amendments we are making to the rule. We still plan to do this. However, we have received comments on aspects of the interim final rule other than our preemption policy. While we will not address these comments in our document discussing our preemption policy, we will consider these comments to determine whether future rulemaking may be necessary, and we encourage commenters to address any aspect of the interim final rule that they wish to.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with RULES History On Tuesday, February 21, 2012, the FAA published in the Federal Register a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) to modify VOR Federal airways V–10, V–12, and V–508, in the vicinity of Olathe, KS (77 FR 9876), due to the planned decommissioning of the Johnson County VOR navigation aid. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal. One positive comment from the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association was received supporting the proposed action and no negative comments were received. The NPRM referenced the planned decommissioning of the Johnson County VOR/DME navigation aid in the Summary, Background, and Proposal sections, in error. The FAA’s planned decommissioning action is for the VOR portion of the Johnson County VOR/ DME navigation aid only. The DME equipment will remain in service. Subsequent to the ending of the comment period, the proposed action to establish the WETZL fix in the same VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:01 Jul 19, 2012 Jkt 226001 geographic location as the decommissioned Johnson County VOR, and use it to replace the VOR in the V– 10 and V–12 airway descriptions, was changed to using the DODSN fix already established on the airways. The FAA took this action based on the airways not passing flight check at multiple altitudes from 4,000 feet MSL to 15,000 feet MSL due to the lack of extended service volume issues at WETZL fix. The effect of this change on the existing V–10 and V–12 airways is negligible; requiring a one-degree correction to the Napoleon, MO, navigation aid radial used to describe the fix’s location from what was proposed in the NPRM. The corrected Napoleon, MO, radial information is changed from ‘‘Napoleon, MO, 242°(T)/235°(M) radial’’ to ‘‘Napoleon, MO, 243°(T)/236°(M) radial.’’ Only the true radial information is published in this rule. With the exception of minor editorial changes and the changes noted above, this amendment is the same as that proposed in the NPRM. The Rule This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by modifying V–10, V–12, and V–508 in the vicinity of Olathe, KS, due to the planned decommissioning of the OJC VOR in July 2012. To retain the airway structure of V– 10 and V–12 in the vicinity of Olathe, KS, the DODSN fix (described by the intersection of Emporia, KS, and Napoleon, MO, navigation aid radials), replaces the OJC VOR in the airway descriptions. Specifically, the amended V–10 and V–12 airway descriptions replace the ‘‘Johnson County, KS’’ reference with ‘‘INT Emporia 063° and Napoleon, MO, 243° radials’’. The amended V–508 now terminates at the existing RUGBB fix (described by the intersection of Topeka, KS, and Kansas City, MO, navigation aid radials). Ending V–508 at the RUGBB fix retains the capability for eastbound aircraft to continue to destinations further east or northeast via transition from V–508 to V–502. VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010(a) of FAA Order 7400.9V dated August 9, 2011, and effective September 15, 2011, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The VOR Federal Airways listed in this document will be subsequently published in the Order. 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 PO 00000 Frm 00006 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 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 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 VOR Federal airways in the vicinity of Olathe, KS. Environmental Review The FAA has determined that this action is categorically excluded from further environmental documentation according to FAA Order 1050.1E, paragraphs 311a. The implementation of this action will not result in any extraordinary circumstances in accordance with paragraph 304 of Order 1050.1E.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History

    On Tuesday, February 21, 2012, the FAA published in the Federal 
Register a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) to modify VOR Federal 
airways V-10, V-12, and V-508, in the vicinity of Olathe, KS (77 FR 
9876), due to the planned decommissioning of the Johnson County VOR 
navigation aid. Interested parties were invited to participate in this 
rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal. One 
positive comment from the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association was 
received supporting the proposed action and no negative comments were 
received.
    The NPRM referenced the planned decommissioning of the Johnson 
County VOR/DME navigation aid in the Summary, Background, and Proposal 
sections, in error. The FAA's planned decommissioning action is for the 
VOR portion of the Johnson County VOR/DME navigation aid only. The DME 
equipment will remain in service.
    Subsequent to the ending of the comment period, the proposed action 
to establish the WETZL fix in the same geographic location as the 
decommissioned Johnson County VOR, and use it to replace the VOR in the 
V-10 and V-12 airway descriptions, was changed to using the DODSN fix 
already established on the airways. The FAA took this action based on 
the airways not passing flight check at multiple altitudes from 4,000 
feet MSL to 15,000 feet MSL due to the lack of extended service volume 
issues at WETZL fix. The effect of this change on the existing V-10 and 
V-12 airways is negligible; requiring a one-degree correction to the 
Napoleon, MO, navigation aid radial used to describe the fix's location 
from what was proposed in the NPRM. The corrected Napoleon, MO, radial 
information is changed from ``Napoleon, MO, 242[deg](T)/235[deg](M) 
radial'' to ``Napoleon, MO, 243[deg](T)/236[deg](M) radial.'' Only the 
true radial information is published in this rule.
    With the exception of minor editorial changes and the changes noted 
above, this amendment is the same as that proposed in the NPRM.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71 by modifying V-10, V-12, and V-508 in the vicinity of Olathe, 
KS, due to the planned decommissioning of the OJC VOR in July 2012.
    To retain the airway structure of V-10 and V-12 in the vicinity of 
Olathe, KS, the DODSN fix (described by the intersection of Emporia, 
KS, and Napoleon, MO, navigation aid radials), replaces the OJC VOR in 
the airway descriptions. Specifically, the amended V-10 and V-12 airway 
descriptions replace the ``Johnson County, KS'' reference with ``INT 
Emporia 063[deg] and Napoleon, MO, 243[deg] radials''.
    The amended V-508 now terminates at the existing RUGBB fix 
(described by the intersection of Topeka, KS, and Kansas City, MO, 
navigation aid radials). Ending V-508 at the RUGBB fix retains the 
capability for eastbound aircraft to continue to destinations further 
east or northeast via transition from V-508 to V-502.
    VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010(a) of FAA Order 
7400.9V dated August 9, 2011, and effective September 15, 2011, which 
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The VOR Federal Airways 
listed in this document will be subsequently published in the Order.
    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 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 VOR Federal airways in the vicinity of Olathe, KS.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action is categorically excluded 
from further environmental documentation according to FAA Order 
1050.1E, paragraphs 311a. The implementation of this action will not 
result in any extraordinary circumstances in accordance with paragraph 
304 of Order 1050.1E.
