14 CFR Part 73
[Airspace Docket No. 94-ASW-21]
Change in Using Agency for Restricted Areas R-5107C, D, E, F, G,
H; R-5109A, B; and R-5111A, B, C; NM
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action changes the using agency for Restricted Areas R-
5107C, D, E, F, G, H; R-5109A, B; White Sands Missile Range, NM, and R-
5111A, B, C; Elephant Butte, NM, from ``Deputy for Air Force, White
Sands Missile Range, NM 88002'' to ``Commanding General, White Sands
Missile Range, NM.'' This is an administrative change initiated by the
U.S. Air Force to reflect its reorganization of responsibilities at
White Sands Missile Range. There are no changes to the boundaries,
designated altitudes, times of designation, or activities conducted
within the affected restricted areas.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, May 25, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Pete Magarelli, Military Operations
Program Office (ATM-420), Office of Air Traffic System Management,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Rule
This amendment to part 73 of the Federal Aviation Regulations
changes the using agency for Restricted Areas R-5107C, D, E, F, G, H;
R-5109A, B; White Sands Missile Range, NM, and R-5111A, B, C; Elephant
Butte, NM, from ``Deputy for Air Force, White Sands Missile Range, NM
88002'' to ``Commanding General, White Sands Missile Range, NM.'' This
is an administrative change initiated by the U.S. Air Force to reflect
its reorganization of responsibilities at White Sands Missile Range.
There are no changes to the boundaries, designated altitudes, times of
designation, or activities conducted within the affected restricted
areas. Because this action is a minor technical amendment in which the
public is not particularly interested, I find that notice and public
procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary. Section 73.51 of part
73 of the Federal Aviation Regulations was republished in FAA Order
7400.8B dated March 9, 1994.
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.
Environmental Review
This action changes the using agency of the restricted areas. There
are no changes to the boundaries, designated altitudes, times of
designation, or activities conducted within the affected restricted
areas. Accordingly, this action is not subject to environmental
assessments and procedures as set forth in FAA Order 1050.1D,
``Policies and Procedures for Considering Environmental Impacts'' and
the National Environmental Policy Act.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 73
