SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 73 by 

changing the using agency name for 

Restricted Area R–2515 Muroc Lake, 

CA, from ‘‘Commander Air Force Flight 

Test Center, Edwards AFB, CA’’ to 

‘‘Commander, 412th Test Wing (412 

TW), Edwards AFB, CA.’’ As part of the 

Air Force Materiel Command’s 

reorganization, responsibility for the 

day-to-day operation of R–2515 was 

assigned to the 412 TW at Edwards 

AFB, CA. This is an administrative 

change to update the name of the using 

agency. It 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 

amends the description of Restricted 

Area R–2515, Edwards AFB, CA. 

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 action is an administrative 

change to the description 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 environmental impacts, and 

no extraordinary circumstances exists 

that warrant preparation of an 

environmental assessment.
