    Alteration of VOR Federal Airways; ME
    
    agency: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
    
    action: Final rule.
    
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    summary: This rule modifies Federal Airways V-93 and V-451 located in 
    Maine. Modifying V-93 and V-451 is necessary because a segment of the 
    description for each airway utilizes the Navy Brunswick, ME, Very High 
    Frequency Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) 
    facility which is scheduled to be decommissioned on April 28, 1994. 
    This action also corrects an inadvertent error in the description of V-
    451: ``Calverton, RI'' should read ``Calverton, NY.''
    
    effective date: 0901 UTC, April 28, 1994.

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    
    History
    
        On January 12, 1994, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the 
    Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to modify V-93 and V-451 
    (59 FR 1686). Interested parties were invited to participate in this 
    rulemaking proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to 
    the FAA. No comments objecting to the proposal were received. Except 
    for editorial changes, this amendment is the same as that proposed in 
    the notice. Domestic VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 
    6010(a) of FAA Order 7400.9A dated June 17, 1993, and effective 
    September 16, 1993, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 
    (58 FR 36298; July 6, 1993). The airways listed in this document will 
    be published subsequently in the Order.
    
    The Rule
    
        This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations 
    modifies V-93 and V-451. A segment of the description for each airway 
    utilizes the Navy Brunswick (NHZ) VORTAC which is scheduled to be 
    decommissioned on April 28, 1994. This action becomes effective 
    concurrent with the decommissioning of the Navy Brunswick VORTAC. This 
    action also corrects an inadvertent error in the description of V-451: 
    ``Calverton, RI'' should read ``Calverton, NY.''
        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 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 will not have a significant economic impact on 
    a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the 
    Regulatory Flexibility Act.
