SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On May 25, 2005, the FAA published in the Federal Register a notice proposing to amend V-536 by extending the airway from the Great Falls VORTAC, to the SWEDD intersection (70 FR 30035). Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal. No comments were received. With the exception of editorial changes, this amendment is the same as that proposed in the notice.

The Rule

This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to modify V-536 by adding a segment from the Great Falls, MT, VORTAC to the SWEDD intersection. The purpose of this airway segment is to enhance the management of aircraft transiting between Great Falls, MT, and Bozeman, MT.

Domestic VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010(a) of FAA Order 7400.9N dated September 1, 2005, and effective September 16, 2005, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The domestic VOR Federal airway listed in this document will be published subsequently in the order.

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 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 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.
