6320 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 26 / Tuesday, February 9, 2010 / Proposed Rules 

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 proposed 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. 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the United States Code. 

Subtitle I, Section 106 describes the 

authority of the FAA Administrator. 

Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, 

describes in more detail the scope of the 

agency’s authority. 

This rulemaking is promulgated 

under the authority described in 

Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 

40103. Under that section, the FAA is 

charged with prescribing regulations to 

assign the use of the airspace necessary 

to ensure the safety of aircraft and the 

efficient use of airspace. This regulation 

is within the scope of that authority as 

it would modify a low altitude RNAV Troute in the Houston, TX, terminal area. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1E, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures,’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.

Persons interested in being placed on 

a mailing list for future NPRMs should 

contact the FAA’s Office of Rulemaking, 

(202) 267–9677, for a copy of Advisory 

Circular No. 11–2A, Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking Distribution System, which 

describes the application procedure. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to the Title 14 Code of Federal 

Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to revise 

Jet Route J–120 by removing the 

segment from Fort Yukon to the BTI 

NDB. The BTI NDB decommissioning 

proposal was publicly circulated in 

Notice number 06–AAL–49NR. After 

reviewing public comment, the FAA 

decided that keeping the NDB was not 

feasible and that it should be 

decommissioned. 

Jet Routes are published in paragraph 

2004 of FAA Order 7400.9T, dated 

August 27, 2009 and effective 

September 15, 2009, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Jet Route listed in this 

document would be subsequently 

published in the Order. 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed regulation only involves an 

established body of technical 

regulations for which frequent and 

routine amendments are necessary to 

keep them operationally current. 

Therefore, this proposed 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 proposed 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. 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the United States Code. 

Subtitle I, Section 106 describes the 

authority of the FAA Administrator. 

Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, 

describes in more detail the scope of the 

agency’s authority. 

This rulemaking is promulgated 

under the authority described in 

Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 

40103. Under that section, the FAA is 

charged with prescribing regulations to 

assign the airspace necessary to ensure 

the safety of aircraft and the efficient 

use of airspace. This regulation is 

within the scope of that authority as it 

would modify a Jet Route in Alaska. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1E, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures,’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.

Schedule of Fees for Consular 

Services, Department of State and 

Overseas Embassies and Consulates 

AGENCY: Bureau of Consular Affairs, 

State. 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: This rule proposes 

adjustments in current fees for consular 

services. The Department of State is 

adjusting the fees in light of an 

independent cost of service study’s 

(‘‘CoSS’’) findings that the U.S. 

Government is not fully covering its 

costs for providing these services under 

the current fee structure. The primary 

objective of the adjustments to the 

Schedule of Fees is to ensure that fees 

for consular services reflect costs to the 

United States of providing the services. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

received on or before 30 days from 

February 9, 2010.
