The Proposal
The FAA is considering an amendment to part 71 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to relocate the Kahului (OGG)
VORTAC and realign VOR airways at Kahului, Maui, Hawaii. The
coordinates for this airspace docket are based on North American Datum
83. Hawaiian VOR Federal Airways are published in subpart E of FAA
Order 7400.9A, dated June 17, 1993, and effective September 16, 1993,
which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The VOR Federal
Airways listed in the document would be published subsequently in the
Order.
The FAA has determined that this proposed 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 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.
