8166 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 28 / Friday, February 10, 1995 / Rules and Regulations

This change was delayed previously

pending the opening of the new Denver

International Airport. This Class B

airspace reconfiguration coincides with

the scheduled opening date of the new

airport.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The final rule at 58 FR

48722, as postponed at 58 FR 60552, as

corrected at 59 FR 2953, and as

postponed at 59 FR 10744 and 59 FR

24914, is effective 0701 UTC, February

28, 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On

September 17, 1993, the Federal

Aviation Administration (FAA)

published a final rule altering the

Denver, CO, Class B airspace area. On

January 20, 1994, a correction to the

final rule was published correcting an

error in the coordinates for the airport

reference point and the supporting

Navigational Aid for the new Denver

International Airport, and to reflect the

upgrading of the Denver Very High

Frequency Omnidirectional Range

facility to a very high frequency

omnidirectional range/tactical air

navigational facility. Most recently, the

FAA delayed these rules indefinitely

pending the official opening of the

Denver International Airport. The new

Denver International Airport is

scheduled to open on February 28,

1995. This airspace reconfiguration

coincides with the opening date of the

new airport.

Because the public needs to be made

aware of the opening date immediately,

notice and public procedure are

impracticable and good cause exists for

making this action effective in less than

30 days.

In consideration of the foregoing,

Airspace Docket No. 91–AWA–3

altering the Class B airspace area in

Denver, CO, 58 FR 48722 (September

17, 1993); as postponed at 58 FR 60552

(November 17, 1993), as corrected at 59

FR 2953 (January 20, 1994), and as

postponed at 59 FR 10744 (March 8,

1994) and 59 FR 24914 (May 13, 1994)

is effective February 28, 1995.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule announcement of

effective date.

SUMMARY: On January 19, 1994, the

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)

published a final rule to amend

appendix D, part 91 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations to accurately

reflect the name of the new Denver,

Colorado airport. This action was

previously delayed pending the opening

of the Denver International Airport. This

amendment coincides with the

scheduled opening date of the new

airport.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The final rule at 59 FR

2918, as corrected at 59 FR 6547, as

postponed at 59 FR 10958 and 59 FR

24915 is effective 0701 UTC, February

28, 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On

January 19, 1994, the Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA) published a

technical amendment to sections 1 and

3 of appendix D, 14 CFR part 91,

replacing the reference to Stapleton

International Airport with the Denver

International Airport (Amendment No.

91–236; 59 FR 2918). In the amendment,

however, the FAA inadvertently

indicated that the word ‘‘Stapleton’’

should be replaced with the word

‘‘International’’. The FAA issued a

correcting amendment on February 11,

1994 (59 FR 6547). Most recently, the

FAA delayed the rule indefinitely

pending the official opening of the

Denver International Airport. The new

airport is scheduled to open on

February 28, 1995. This action coincides

with the opening of the new airport.

Because the public needs to be made

aware of the opening date immediately,

notice and public procedure are

impracticable and good cause exists for

making this action effective in less than

30 days.

In consideration of the foregoing, the

final rule (Docket No. 27583) amending

the name of the Denver International

Airport in appendix D of 14 CFR part 91

(59 FR 2918; January 19, 1994) and the

final rule correction (59 CFR 6547,

February 11, 1994) postponed at 59 FR

10958, March 9, 1994, and 59 FR 24915,

May 13, 1994 is effective February 28,

1995.

14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 95–ANM–7]

Alteration Jet Route J–20

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; clarification.

SUMMARY: This action reflects the name

change of the Shreveport, LA, Very High

Frequency Omnidirectional Range/

Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC)

facility to the Belcher VORTAC in the

airspace designation for Jet Route J–20.

The description for J–20 was previously

modified to support the airspace

structure for the new Denver

International Airport. That action was

delayed pending the opening of the

airport and reflected the old name for

the Belcher, LA, VORTAC. This action

clarifies that the Shreveport, LA,

VORTAC is now named the Belcher

VORTAC in the new description of J–20

which becomes effective on February

28, 1995.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0701 UTC, February 28,

1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Rule

This amendment to part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR
Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 28 / Friday, February 10, 1995 / Rules and Regulations 8167

part 71) reflects a change to the name of

the Shreveport, LA, VORTAC to the

Belcher VORTAC. The description for J–

20 was previously modified in Docket

91–ANM–16 to support the opening of

the new Denver International Airport;

that action was delayed pending the

opening of the airport. The description

for J–20 in Docket 91–ANM–16

contained the old name for the Belcher

VORTAC. The airspace configuration to

support the opening of the new Denver

International Airport will now become

effective on February 28, 1995. This

action is necessary to clarify the name

change of the VORTAC from

Shreveport, LA, to Belcher, LA, in the

new description of J–20. This action is

editorial in nature. I find that notice and

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

are unnecessary, because this action is

a minor technical amendment in which

the public is not particularly interested.

Jet routes are published in paragraph

2004 of FAA Order 7400.9B dated July

18, 1994, and effective September 16,

1994, which is incorporated by

reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The 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. It, therefore—(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.
