Amendment of Restricted Area R– 

5304C; Camp Lejeune, NC 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule; technical 

amendment. 

SUMMARY: This action changes the name 

of the using agency for Restricted Area 

R–5304C, Camp Lejeune, NC. This is an 

administrative change to reflect 

organizational restructuring within the 

United States Marine Corps. It does not 

affect the boundaries, designated 

altitudes, time of designation or 

activities conducted within the 

restricted area. 

DATES: Effective date: 0901 UTC, July 

24, 2014.

Gallant, Airspace Policy and 

Regulations Group, Office of Airspace 

Services, Federal Aviation 

Administration, 800 Independence 

Avenue SW., Washington, DC 20591; 

telephone: (202) 267–8783. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 73 by 

updating the using agency name for 

Restricted Area R–5304C, Camp 

Lejeune, NC. The name change is due to 

organizational restructuring within the 

U.S. Marine Corps. This is an 

administrative change that does not 

affect the boundaries, designated 

altitudes, or activities conducted within 

the restricted area; therefore, notice and 

public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) 

are unnecessary. 

The FAA has determined that this 

action 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 only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, does 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 makes an administrative change to the 

descriptions of Restricted Area R– 

5303C, Camp Lejeune, NC to reflect 

organizational realignments within the 

U.S. Marine Corps. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1E, Environmental Impacts: 

Policies and Procedures, paragraph 

311d. This airspace action is an 

administrative change to the 

descriptions of the affected restricted 

area to update the using agency name. 

It does not alter the dimensions, 

altitudes, or times of designation of the 

airspace; therefore, it is not expected to 

cause any potentially significant

Commission, Energy. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Commission is clarifying 

its regulations to make explicit that, 

consistent with Order No. 714 and its 

subsequent orders, statutory tariff and 

rate filings must be made electronically, 

according to the Commission’s posted 

requirements for eTariff filings. Filings 

not made in proper electronic format 

will not become effective under the 

applicable statutes if the Commission 

fails to act by the proposed effective 

dates in the applicants’ pleadings.

Before Commissioners: Cheryl A. LaFleur, 

Acting Chairman; Philip D. Moeller, John 

R. Norris, and Tony Clark. 

Final Rule 

Issued May 15, 2014 

1. By this instant Final Rule, the 

Commission is clarifying its 

regulations 1 to make explicit that, in 

order for filings to have a statutory 

action date, the filings must be made 

electronically as tariff filings in 

accordance with the Commission’s 

posted requirements and formats 

(commonly known as ‘‘eTariff’’). Filings 

not made in proper format consistent 

with the Commission’s eTariff 

requirements will not become effective 

by operation of law under the statutes 

administered by the Commission, if the 

Commission fails to act on the filings 

within the timeframes in the statutes.2

These revisions clarify the regulations 

so they reflect the Commission’s Order 

No. 714,3 adopting regulations requiring 

electronic filing of tariffs and tariffrelated materials. 

I. Discussion 

2. Section 4 of the Natural Gas Act 

(NGA),4 section 205 of the Federal 

Power Act (FPA),5 and section 6 of the 

Interstate Commerce Act (ICA) 6 provide 

that no change shall be made in rates, 

charges, classifications, or services 

except after prior notice provided to the 

Commission. The statutes further 

provide that if the Commission fails to 

act on such a filing within the 

statutorily prescribed notice period, the 

changes in the filing will become 

effective by operation of law. 

3. These statutory provisions (section 

4(c) of the NGA, section 205(c) of the 

FPA and section 6(6) of the ICA) also 

provide that filings to revise rates, terms 

and conditions of service must be filed 

in the form the Commission designates. 

In Order No. 714, the Commission 

adopted regulations 7 governing the 

filing of such changes to rates, terms 

and conditions of service and of other 

materials related to such changes,8 for 

natural gas pipelines, public utilities, 

and oil pipelines governed by these 

statutes. These regulations require that 

all tariff and tariff-related filings must 

be made electronically according to the 

requirements and formats for such 

electronic filing listed in the 

instructions for such electronic filing.9

The Commission stated that the formats 

and data elements in these requirements 

‘‘are required to properly identify the 

nature of the tariff filing. . . .’’ 10 In a 

subsequent order, the Commission 

further amplified the procedures for 

identifying whether tariff filings are 

statutory, explaining that only eTariff 

filings using the proper filing codes 

would establish the applicable filing 

and notice requirements under the 

NGA, FPA, and ICA.11 In this regard, the 

Commission stated that the filer’s choice 

of electronic filing codes determines 

whether a filing has a statutory action 

date, and not statements in transmittal 

letters or other documents.12

4. Despite the passage of three years 

since the implementation of electronic 

tariff filing, many filers still are 

incorrectly filing what purport to be 

statutory filings, either by not making 

the filings through eTariff or by not 

using the proper filing codes for 

statutory filings.13 We are therefore 

revising sections 35.7, 154.4, and 341.1 

of the Commission’s regulations to 

reflect the Commission’s required
