Malad City, ID, Very High Frequency Omni-directional Range/Distance 
Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME) and the Muddy Mountain, WY, Very High 
Frequency Omni-directional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC). 
Specifically, the FAA is realigning the route from Malad City, ID, to

airway segment taken out of service, reduces controller workload, and 
enhances the National Airspace System.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On October 4, 2005, the FAA published in the Federal Register a 
notice of proposed rulemaking to revise J-158 between the Malad City, 
ID, VOR/DME and the Muddy Mountain, WY, VORTAC (70 FR 57806). 
Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking 
effort by submitting written comments on the proposal. No comments were 
received. With the exception of editorial changes, this amendment is 
the same as that proposed in the notice.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71 to revise a segment of J-158. This amendment would insert a 
segment extending from Malad City, ID, VOR/DME to Big Piney, WY, VOR/
DME to Muddy Mountain, WY, VORTAC, and restores the use of J-158 
between Malad City and Muddy Mountain.
    Domestic Jet Routes are published in paragraph 2004 of FAA Order 
7400.9N dated September 1, 2005, and effective September 15, 2005, 
which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The domestic Jet 
Route 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 Department of Transportation (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.
