SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
Background
On February 25, 2004, the airspace manager for the 45th Space Wing,
Cape Canaveral AFS, FL, requested a change to the using agency
information for R-2932, R-2933, R-2934, and R-2935 to reflect the
current organizational structure. This action responds to this request.
The Rule
The FAA is amending Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 73 (part 73) by modifying R-2932, R-2933, R-2934, and R-2935, Cape
Canaveral AFS, FL. Specifically, this action changes the using agency
name from ``U.S. Air Force, Eastern Space and Missile Center/RRS, Cape
Canaveral AFS, FL,'' to ``Commander, 1st Range Operations Squadron,
Cape Canaveral AFS, FL.'' This action is an administrative change to
reflect the current organization name of the using agency. This action
does not alter the boundaries, altitudes, time of designation, or
activities conducted within the restricted areas. Therefore, notice and
public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary.
Section 73.29 of part 73 of the Federal Aviation Regulations was
republished in FAA Order 7400.8L, dated October 7, 2003.
This regulation is limited to 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. It
has been determined that 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.
Environmental Review
This action is a minor administrative change to update the using
agency name
[[Page 68076]]
for existing restricted areas. There are no changes to air traffic
procedures or routes as a result of this action. Therefore, the FAA
determined that this action qualifies for a categorical exclusion from
further environmental analysis under the National Environmental Policy
Act in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts:
Policies and Procedures,'' paragraph 311d.
