14 CFR Part 71
[Airspace Docket No. 99-ANM-4]
RIN 2120-AA66
Modification of Federal Airway Victor 108 (V-108) in the Vicinity
of Colorado Springs, CO
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action amends the legal description of Federal Airway V-
108. Specifically, this action includes a reference to the Hugo Very
High Frequency Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC)
as part of the legal description of V-108. This action is editorial and
does not change the actual airway as currently used or depicted on
aeronautical charts.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, December 30, 1999.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ken McElroy, Airspace and Rules
Division, ATA-400, Office of Air Traffic Airspace Management, Federal
Aviation Administration, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Rule
This action amends 14 CFR part 71 (part 71) by inserting a
reference to the Hugo VORTAC in the legal description of V-108. The
Hugo VORTAC is part of the existing charted V-108 but was inadvertently
omitted from the legal description of V-108 published on December 12,
1997. Since this action merely involves an editorial change to the
legal description of V-108, and does not involve a change in the
dimensions or operating requirements of the airway, I find that notice
and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary.
Domestic VOR Federal airway designations are published in paragraph
6010(a) of FAA Order 7400.9G, Airspace Designations and Reporting
Points, dated September 1, 1999, and effective September 16, 1999,
which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The 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
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.
