SUMMARY: This action changes the using agency for R-2510A and R-2510B,
El Centro, CA, from ``U.S. Navy, Commander, Fleet Area Control and
Surveillance Facility, San Diego, CA'' to ``Commanding Officer (CO),
Yuma Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS), AZ.'' This is an administrative
change that was initiated by the U.S. Navy to reflect the current using
organization. There are no changes to the boundaries, designated

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Rule
This action amends 14 CFR part 73 by changing the name of the using
agency for R-2510A and R-2510B, from ``U.S. Navy, Commander, Fleet Area
Control and Surveillance Facility, San Diego, CA'' to ``CO, Yuma MCAS,
AZ.''
This administrative change will not alter the existing boundaries,
altitudes, times of designation, or the activities conducted within the
affected restricted areas. Therefore, I find that notice and public
procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary because this action is
a minor technical amendment in which the public would not be
particularly interested.
Section 73.25 of part 73 was republished in FAA Order 7400.8F,
dated October 27, 1998.
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 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.
Environmental Review
This action is a minor administrative change to amend the name of
the using agency of existing restricted areas. There are no changes to
the dimensions of the restricted areas, or to air traffic control
procedures or routes as a result of this action. Therefore, this action
is not subject to environmental assessments and procedures in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1D, ``Policies and Procedures for
Considering Environmental Impacts,'' and the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 73
