SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The time of designation for R–2504A and R–2504B currently reads ‘‘0600 to 2400 PST, daily’’ and the time of designation for R–2530 currently reads ‘‘0800 to 1800 PST, Monday–Friday; other times by NOTAM.’’ Since the restricted areas lie completely within the pacific time zone, it is unnecessary to specify ‘‘PST’’ in the descriptions. The use of ‘‘PST’’ has led to confusion about the time of designation during that part of the year when daylight saving time is in effect. The intended time of designation for restricted areas R–2504A and R–2504B is 0600–2400 local time, daily, during both standard time and daylight saving time periods and for R–2530 is 0800–1800 local time, Monday–Friday; other times by NOTAM, during both standard time and daylight saving time periods. The Rule This action amends Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 73 by removing ‘‘PST’’ from the time of designation for restricted areas R–2504A and R–2504B, Camp Roberts, CA, and R–2530, Sierra Army Depot, CA, and inserting the words ‘‘local time’’ in its place. The time of designation is amended to read ‘‘0600 to 2400 local time, daily’’ for R–2504A and R–2504B and ‘‘0800–1800 local time, Monday– Friday; other times by NOTAM’’ for R– 2530. These changes do not alter the current dimensions or usage of the restricted areas. Because this action is a minor editorial change that does not alter the physical location or utilization of the restricted areas, I find that notice and public procedures under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary. Section 73.25 of Title 14 CFR part 73 was republished in FAA Order JO 7400.8V, effective February 16, 2013. The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an established E:\FR\FM\09JYR1.SGM 09JYR1 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 131 / Tuesday, July 9, 2013 / Rules and Regulations 40959 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 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. 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 amends airspace descriptions to keep them current. Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40103, 40113, 40120; E.O. 10854, 24 FR 9565, 3 CFR, 1959– 1963 Comp., p. 389. Background § 73.25 STOP VAIW Program DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE In 1994, Congress passed the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), a comprehensive legislative package aimed at ending violence against women. VAWA was enacted on September 13, 1994, as title IV of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994, Public Law 103–322, 108 Stat. 1796. VAWA was designed to improve criminal justice system responses to domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking, and to increase the availability of services for victims of these crimes. The STOP VAIW Program was codified at 42 U.S.C. 3796gg through 3796gg–5. The final rule for this program, found at 28 CFR part 90, subpart C, under the heading Indian Tribal Governments Discretionary Program, was promulgated on April 18, 1995 (74 FR 19474). The Violence Against Women and Department of Justice Reauthorization Act of 2005 (VAWA 2005), Public Law 109–162, 119 Stat. 2960 (January 5, 2006) (hereinafter ‘‘VAWA 2005’’), eliminated the STOP VAIW Program and replaced it with the Grants to Indian Tribal Governments Program, which is codified at 42 U.S.C. 3796gg– 10. Accordingly, this rule removes the now unnecessary STOP VAIW Program regulations. Environmental Review The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures, paragraph 311d. This action updates the technical description of special use airspace that does not alter the dimensions, altitudes, or use of the airspace. It is not expected to cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment. 28 CFR Part 90 Higher Education Amendments of 1998 [OVW Docket No. 110] Violence against women on college and university campuses also is a serious, widespread problem. To help address this problem, Congress authorized the Grants to Combat Violent Crimes Against Women on Campuses Program in title VIII, part E, section 826 of the Higher Education Amendments of 1998, Public Law 105–244, 112 Stat. 1581 (Oct. 7, 1998). Consistent with VAWA, the Grants to Combat Violent Crimes Against Women on Campuses Program was designed to encourage the higher education community to adopt comprehensive, coordinated strategies for preventing and stopping violence against women. This program was originally codified at 20 U.S.C. 1152. The final rule for the program, found at 28 CFR part 90, subpart E, was promulgated on July 22, 1999 (64 FR 39774). VAWA 2005 amended the Campus Program and renamed it the Grants to Combat Violent Crimes on Campus Program (Campus Program) and recodified it at 42 U.S.C. 14045b. When VAWA 2005 recodified the program, it removed the requirement for mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 73 Airspace, Prohibited areas, Restricted areas.

SUMMARY: This action amends the descriptions of restricted areas R-
2504A and R-2504B, Camp Roberts, CA, and restricted area R-2530, Sierra 
Army Depot, CA, by removing the abbreviation ``PST'' from the time of 
designation. This amendment does not change the dimensions of, or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The time of designation for R-2504A and R-2504B currently reads 
``0600 to 2400 PST, daily'' and the time of designation for R-2530 
currently reads ``0800 to 1800 PST, Monday-Friday; other times by 
NOTAM.'' Since the restricted areas lie completely within the pacific 
time zone, it is unnecessary to specify ``PST'' in the descriptions. 
The use of ``PST'' has led to confusion about the time of designation 
during that part of the year when daylight saving time is in effect. 
The intended time of designation for restricted areas R-2504A and R-
2504B is 0600-2400 local time, daily, during both standard time and 
daylight saving time periods and for R-2530 is 0800-1800 local time, 
Monday-Friday; other times by NOTAM, during both standard time and 
daylight saving time periods.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 73 by removing ``PST'' from the time of designation for restricted 
areas R-2504A and R-2504B, Camp Roberts, CA, and R-2530, Sierra Army 
Depot, CA, and inserting the words ``local time'' in its place. The 
time of designation is amended to read ``0600 to 2400 local time, 
daily'' for R-2504A and R-2504B and ``0800-1800 local time, Monday-
Friday; other times by NOTAM'' for R-2530. These changes do not alter 
the current dimensions or usage of the restricted areas.
    Because this action is a minor editorial change that does not alter 
the physical location or utilization of the restricted areas, I find 
that notice and public procedures under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are 
unnecessary.
    Section 73.25 of Title 14 CFR part 73 was republished in FAA Order 
JO 7400.8V, effective February 16, 2013.
    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an

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.

and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated, 
does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of

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

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 amends airspace descriptions to keep them current.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical 
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance 
with FAA Order 1050.1E, Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures, 
paragraph 311d. This action updates the technical description of 
special use airspace that does not alter the dimensions, altitudes, or 
use of the airspace. It is not expected to cause any potentially 
significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary circumstances 
exist that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment.
