Download as PDF 15016 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 42 / Friday, March 1, 2024 / Rules and Regulations 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 amending VOR Federal Airway V–9 in the eastern United States, qualifies for categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and its implementing regulations at 40 CFR part 1500, and in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ paragraph 5–6.5a, which categorically excludes from further environmental impact review rulemaking actions that designate or modify classes of airspace areas, airways, routes, and reporting points (see 14 CFR part 71, Designation of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace Areas; Air Traffic Service Routes; and Reporting Points); and paragraph 5– 6.5b, which categorically excludes from further environmental impact review ‘‘Actions regarding establishment of jet routes and Federal airways (see 14 CFR 71.15, Designation of jet routes and VOR Federal airways). . .’’. As such, this airspace action is not expected to cause any potentially significant environmental impacts. In accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, paragraph 5– 2 regarding Extraordinary Circumstances, the FAA has reviewed this action for factors and circumstances in which a normally categorically excluded action may have a significant environmental impact requiring further analysis. Accordingly, the FAA has determined that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment or environmental impact study.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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 listed for restricted areas R–2510A and R–2510B in the vicinity of El Centro, CA. Background The U.S. Department of the Navy requested that the Federal Aviation Administration amend the descriptions of restricted areas R–2510A and R– 2510B by changing the using agency listed for each from ‘‘Commanding Officer, U.S. Navy Fleet Area Control and Surveillance Facility, San Diego, CA’’ to ‘‘U.S. Marine Corps, Commanding Officer, Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Yuma, AZ’’. The request is the result of a realignment of air traffic control responsibilities for the area. The Rule This action amends 14 CFR part 73 by amending the using agency listed for restricted areas R–2510A and R–2510B from ‘‘Commanding Officer, U.S. Navy Fleet Area Control and Surveillance Facility, San Diego, CA’’ to ‘‘U.S. Marine Corps, Commanding Officer, Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Yuma, AZ’’. This action is necessary in order to reflect the current organization tasked with using agency responsibilities for the restricted areas. This is an administrative change that does not affect the boundaries, designated altitudes, times of designation, or activities conducted within restricted areas R–2510A and R– 2510B; therefore, notice and public E:\FR\FM\01MRR1.SGM 01MRR1 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 42 / Friday, March 1, 2024 / Rules and Regulations procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary. ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1 Regulatory Notices and Analyses 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.

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 amending the using agency information for restricted areas R– 2510A and R–2510B, qualifies for categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and its implementing regulations at 40 CFR part 1500, and in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F ‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ paragraph 5–6.5a, which categorically excludes from further environmental impact review rulemaking actions that designate or modify classes of airspace areas, airways, routes, and reporting points (see 14 CFR part 71, Designation of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace Areas; Air Traffic Service Routes; and Reporting Points), and paragraph 5– 6.5d, which categorically excludes from further environmental impact review the 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–2510A and R–2510B to update the using agency name. It does not alter the restricted area dimensions, designated altitudes, times of designation, or use of the airspace. Therefore, this airspace action is not expected to result in any significant environmental impacts.

Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking On December 23, 2021, the Federal Trade Commission (‘‘Commission’’ or ‘‘FTC’’) published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (‘‘ANPR’’) to address certain deceptive or unfair acts or practices of impersonation.1 As part of the ANPR, the Commission requested comment on any issues or concerns relevant or appropriate to this rulemaking to combat impersonation of governments, businesses, or their agents, and whether and how to proceed with a notice of proposed rulemaking (‘‘NPRM’’).2 The Commission took comments for 60 days, and received 164 comments from representatives from a broad spectrum of businesses, trade associations, government or lawenforcement organizations, and individual consumers, which are publicly available on this rulemaking’s docket at https://www.regulations.gov/ docket/FTC-2021-0077/comments. Commenters generally expressed support for the Commission’s proceeding with the rulemaking. They also voiced deep concerns about the prevalence and harmfulness of both government and business impersonation. No commenter expressed the view that the Commission should not commence the rulemaking. Commenters also offered suggestions for the Commission’s consideration in drafting the proposed rule and other recommendations in furtherance of the proposed rulemaking. B. Notice of Proposed Rulemaking Based on an extensive review of the comments received in response to the ANPR, the Commission’s own history of enforcement, and other considerations that occurred after the ANPR’s publication,3 the Commission published the NPRM on October 17, 2022.4 In the E:\FR\FM\01MRR1.SGM 01MRR1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

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 listed for restricted areas R-
2510A and R-2510B in the vicinity of El Centro, CA.

Background

    The U.S. Department of the Navy requested that the Federal Aviation 
Administration amend the descriptions of restricted areas R-2510A and 
R-2510B by changing the using agency listed for each from ``Commanding 
Officer, U.S. Navy Fleet Area Control and Surveillance Facility, San 
Diego, CA'' to ``U.S. Marine Corps, Commanding Officer, Marine Corps 
Air Station Yuma, Yuma, AZ''. The request is the result of a 
realignment of air traffic control responsibilities for the area.

The Rule

    This action amends 14 CFR part 73 by amending the using agency 
listed for restricted areas R-2510A and R-2510B from ``Commanding 
Officer, U.S. Navy Fleet Area Control and Surveillance Facility, San 
Diego, CA'' to ``U.S. Marine Corps, Commanding Officer, Marine Corps 
Air Station Yuma, Yuma, AZ''. This action is necessary in order to 
reflect the current organization tasked with using agency 
responsibilities for the restricted areas.
    This is an administrative change that does not affect the 
boundaries, designated altitudes, times of designation, or activities 
conducted within restricted areas R-2510A and R-2510B; therefore, 
notice and public

[[Page 15017]]

procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    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. 
It, therefore: (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.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action of amending the using 
agency information for restricted areas R-2510A and R-2510B, qualifies 
for categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act 
(42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and its implementing regulations at 40 CFR 
part 1500, and in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F ``Environmental 
Impacts: Policies and Procedures,'' paragraph 5-6.5a, which 
categorically excludes from further environmental impact review 
rulemaking actions that designate or modify classes of airspace areas, 
airways, routes, and reporting points (see 14 CFR part 71, Designation 
of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace Areas; Air Traffic Service Routes; 
and Reporting Points), and paragraph 5-6.5d, which categorically 
excludes from further environmental impact review the 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-2510A 
and R-2510B to update the using agency name. It does not alter the 
restricted area dimensions, designated altitudes, times 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. Accordingly, the FAA 
has determined that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant 
preparation of an environmental assessment or environmental impact 
study.
