Amendment of VOR Federal Airway V–
625, Arizona
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule; technical
amendment.
AGENCY:
This action makes an editorial
change to the legal description of VHF
Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal
airway V–625 to reverse the order of
points listed in the route description.
This action is simply to comply with the
standard format for describing routes.
The existing alignment of the airway is
not affected by this action.
DATES: Effective Dates: 0901 UTC, May
29, 2014. The Director of the Federal
Register approves this incorporation by
reference action under 1 CFR part 51,
subject to the annual revision of FAA
Order 7400.9 and publication of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Background
Current format guidelines for airway
and route legal descriptions require that
the order of points in a description be
listed from ‘‘west-to-east’’ or from
‘‘south-to-north,’’ as applicable. The
description for V–625 lists the points
from ‘‘north-to-south.’’ This rule simply
reverses the order of the points listed in
Order 7400.9X to a ‘‘south-to-north’’
format for standardization.

The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by
reversing the order of points listed in
the legal description of VOR Federal
airway V–625. This is only an editorial
change to comply with the standard
route description format. The change
does not alter the current alignment of
V–625 and the airway track is correct on
aeronautical charts.
Since this action merely involves an
editorial change in the legal description
of VOR Federal airway V–625 to

standardize the format, and does not
involve a change in the dimensions or
operating requirements of the affected
route, I find that notice and public
procedures under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are
unnecessary.
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 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 is merely an editorial change of the
legal description of V–625 to comply
with existing administrative format
procedures.
Domestic VOR Federal Airways are
published in paragraph 6010(a) of FAA
Order 7400.9X, dated August 7, 2013,
and effective September 15, 2013, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The VOR Federal airway listed in
this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.
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
311a. This airspace action consists of
editorial changes only and is not
expected to cause any potentially
significant environmental impacts, and
no extraordinary circumstances exist

Background
Current format guidelines for airway and route legal descriptions
require that the order of points in a description be listed from
``west-to-east'' or from ``south-to-north,'' as applicable. The
description for V-626 lists the points from ``east-to-west.'' This rule
simply reverses the order of the points to a ``west-to-east'' format
for standardization.
The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 by reversing the order of points listed in the legal
description of VOR Federal airway V-626. This is only an editorial
change to comply with the standard route description format. The change
does not alter the current alignment of V-626 and the airway track is
correct on aeronautical charts.
Since this action merely involves an editorial change in the legal
description of VOR Federal airway V-626 to standardize the format, and
does not involve a change in the dimensions or operating requirements
of the affected route, I find that notice and public procedures under 5
U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary.
The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
