Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
This action updates the using
agency information for restricted areas
R–4102A and R–4102B, Fort Devens,
MA. This is an administrative change to
reflect the current organization tasked
with using agency responsibilities for
the restricted areas. It does not affect the
boundaries, designated altitudes, time of
designation or activities conducted
within the restricted areas.
DATES: Effective date: 0901 UTC, June
22, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Authority for This Rulemaking
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 updates the using agency for restricted
areas R–4102A and R–4102B, Fort
Devens, MA, to reflect the current
organization responsible for the
restricted areas.

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 79 / Wednesday, April 26, 2017 / Rules and Regulations
The Rule
This rule amends Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 73 by
updating the using agency name for
restricted areas R–4102A and R–4102B,
Fort Devens, MA, by removing the
words ‘‘Chief, Reserve Component
Division, Devens Reserve Forces
Training Area, Ayer, MA,’’ and adding
the words ‘‘Commander, U.S. Army
Garrison, Fort Devens, MA.’’ The name
change reflects the current organization
assigned using agency responsibilities
for the restricted areas. This is an
administrative change that does not
affect the boundaries, designated
altitudes, or activities conducted within
the restricted areas; therefore, notice
and public procedure under 5 U.S.C.
553(b) are unnecessary.
Regulatory Notices and Analyses
The FAA has determined that this
action only involves an established
body of technical regulations for which
frequent and routine amendments are
necessary to keep them operationally
current. It, therefore: (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.

Environmental Review
The FAA has determined that this
action of updating the using agency
information for restricted areas R–
4102A and R–4102B, Fort Devens, MA
qualifies for categorical exclusion under
the National Environmental Policy Act
in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F,
Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures, paragraph 5–6.5.d,
‘‘Modification of the technical
description of special use airspace
(SUA) that does not alter the
dimensions, altitudes, or times of
designation of the airspace (such as
changes in designation of the
controlling or using agency, or
correction of typographical errors).’’
This airspace action is an administrative
change to the description of restricted
areas R–4102A and R–4102B to update
the using agency name. It does not alter
the dimensions, altitudes, time of
designation, or use of the airspace.

Therefore, this airspace action is not
expected to result in any significant
environmental impacts. In accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F, paragraph 5–
2 regarding Extraordinary
Circumstances, this action has been
reviewed for factors and circumstances
in which a normally categorically
excluded action may have a significant
environmental impact requiring further
analysis, and it is determined that no
extraordinary circumstances exist that
warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.

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 updates the using agency for restricted areas R-4102A and R-
4102B, Fort Devens, MA, to reflect the current organization responsible
for the restricted areas.
[[Page 19189]]
The Rule
This rule amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part
73 by updating the using agency name for restricted areas R-4102A and
R-4102B, Fort Devens, MA, by removing the words ``Chief, Reserve
Component Division, Devens Reserve Forces Training Area, Ayer, MA,''
and adding the words ``Commander, U.S. Army Garrison, Fort Devens,
MA.'' The name change reflects the current organization assigned using
agency responsibilities for the restricted areas. This is an
administrative change that does not affect the boundaries, designated
altitudes, or activities conducted within the restricted areas;
therefore, notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are
unnecessary.
Regulatory Notices and Analyses
The FAA has determined that this action only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore: (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.
Environmental Review
The FAA has determined that this action of updating the using
agency information for restricted areas R-4102A and R-4102B, Fort
Devens, MA qualifies for categorical exclusion under the National
Environmental Policy Act in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F,
Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures, paragraph 5-6.5.d,
``Modification of the technical description of special use airspace
(SUA) that does not alter the dimensions, altitudes, or times of
designation of the airspace (such as changes in designation of the
controlling or using agency, or correction of typographical errors).''
This airspace action is an administrative change to the description of
restricted areas R-4102A and R-4102B to update the using agency name.
It does not alter the dimensions, altitudes, time of designation, or
use of the airspace. Therefore, this airspace action is not expected to
result in any significant environmental impacts. In accordance with FAA
Order 1050.1F, paragraph 5-2 regarding Extraordinary Circumstances,
this action has been reviewed for factors and circumstances in which a
normally categorically excluded action may have a significant
environmental impact requiring further analysis, and it is determined
that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of
an environmental assessment.
