The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by modifying Class E airspace at Point
Mugu NAWS, Oxnard, CA. Additional controlled airspace is necessary to
accommodate the vectoring of aircraft flying en route, in and out of
the Los Angeles ARTCC's airspace area. This action would enhance the
safety and management of aircraft operations in Los Angeles ARTCC's
airspace.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.9T, signed August 27, 2009, and effective September 15,
2009, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designation listed in this document will be published
subsequently in this 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 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, would 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 U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, section 106, describes
the authority for 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
establishes additional controlled airspace at Point Mugu NAWS, Oxnard,
CA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    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 modifies the route structure as necessary to preserve
the safe and efficient flow of air traffic within the National Airspace
System.

History

    The FAA published a NPRM for Docket No. FAA-2023-0215 in the
Federal Register (88 FR 8241; February 8, 2023), removing VOR Federal
airway V-314. Interested parties were invited to participate in this
rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal. No
comments were received.

Incorporation by Reference

    VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010(a) of FAA Order
JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 on an annual basis. This
document amends

the current version of that order, FAA Order JO 7400.11H, dated August
11, 2023, and effective September 15, 2023. FAA Order JO 7400.11H is
publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document.
This amendment will be published in the next update to FAA Order JO
7400.11.
    FAA Order JO 7400.11H lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,
air traffic service routes, and reporting points.

The Rule

    This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by removing VOR Federal airway V-
314 in Maine. This action is necessary because NAV CANADA has cancelled
the connecting route segments in Canada. As a result, only a short
segment of V-314, extending between the Millinocket, ME (MLT), VOR/
Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME) and the United States-Canadian
border remains. The FAA determined that the remaining route is not
required for navigation or ATC purposes.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    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
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 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.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action of removing VOR Federal
airway V-314 in Maine qualifies for categorical exclusion under the
National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and its
implementing regulations at 40 CFR part 1500, and in accordance with
FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures,
paragraph 5-6.5a which categorically excludes from further
environmental impact review rulemaking actions that designate or modify
classes of airspace areas, airways, routes, and reporting points (see
14 CFR part 71, Designation of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace Areas;
Air Traffic Service Routes; and Reporting Points); and paragraph 5-
6.5b, which categorically excludes from further environmental impact
review ``Actions regarding establishment of jet routes and Federal
airways (see 14 CFR 71.15, Designation of jet routes and VOR Federal
airways) . . .''. As such, this action is not expected to result in any
potentially significant environmental impacts. In accordance with FAA
Order 1050.1F, paragraph 5-2 regarding Extraordinary Circumstances, the
FAA has reviewed this action for factors and circumstances in which a
normally categorically excluded action may have a significant
environmental impact requiring further analysis. Accordingly, the FAA
has determined that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant
preparation of an environmental assessment or environmental impact
study.

BILLING CODE 4910-13-P


53731 Federal Register / Vol. 68, No. 177 / Friday, September 12, 2003 / Notices advance of preparing an Environmental Impact Statement ( EIS) to fund the construction of a non potable water distribution system. The source of the non potable water would come from four sources: ( 1) A mixture of advanced tertiary treated wastewater ( recycled water) generated at the Henry N. Wochholz Wastewater Treatment Plant ( WWTP); ( 2) untreated surface water; ( 3) untreated imported water from the State Water Project; and ( 4) non potable groundwater pumped from the Yucaipa Management Zone Groundwater basin to a lesser degree. Currently, the Yucaipa Valley Water District ( District) discharges approximately 3.0 million gallons per day ( mgd) of tertiary treated wastewater into San Timoteo Creek from the WWTP via an outfall located approximately 1.5 miles upstream of Redlands Boulevard. Some or all of the tertiary treated effluent would be withdrawn from San Timoteo Creek for use within the non potable water distribution system.

Purpose: In accordance with Section 15082 of California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) Guidelines, the District is the lead agency in the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report ( EIR) for the proposed Regional Non Potable Water Distribution System Project. In accordance with Section 1501.7 and 1508.22 of the National Environmental Policy Act ( NEPA), the U. S. EPA is the lead agency in the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement ( EIS). The District and EPA are coordinating to prepare a joint EIR/ EIS. For Further Information, to Submit Comments, and To Be Placed on a Project Mailing List, Contact: Ms. Elizabeth Borowiec, U. S. Environmental Protection Agency, Mail Code WTR   4, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, California, 94105   3901, Telephone: ( 415) 972   3419 or FAX: ( 415) 947   3537 or E mail at borowiec. elizabeth@ epa. gov. Summary: This Notice is to announce EPA and the District's intention to collect public comment in advance of preparing an EIS. Need for Action: The Yucaipa Valley Water District is dependent on local groundwater sources, surface water and imported water to meet the potable water demands of its customers. Currently, these groundwater basins are experiencing an overdraft of 3,000 acrefeet per year. The proposed project would reduce the demand for potable water by up to 1,300 acre feet per year under existing conditions. Alternatives: The following proposed alternatives have been tentatively defined: 1. `` Proposed Project''   A total of approximately 126,100 linear feet of pipeline, eight reservoirs and four pump stations would be constructed, maintained and operated to distribute non potable water to markets identified in the Water Master Plan as Phase I and II customers. Approximately, 9,600 linear feet of pipeline would be constructed to discharge water to San Timoteo Creek at the Live Oak Road bridge crossing. Also, one existing reservoir ( H   1) located near the proposed Casa Blanca golf course would be converted from potable to nonpotable water storage, maintained and operated by the District as part of the non potable water distribution system. 2. `` A Reduced Distribution System Alternative''   A total of 39,900 linear feet of pipeline and two reservoirs would be constructed to distribute nonpotable water to markets identified in the Water Master Plan as Phase I customers. Approximately, 9,600 linear feet of pipeline would be constructed to discharge water to San Timoteo Creek at the Live Oak Road bridge crossing. Also, one existing reservoir ( H   1) located near the proposed Casa Blanca golf course would be converted from potable to non potable water storage, maintained and operated by the District as part of the non potable water distribution system. 3. `` A No Project Alternative''   Construction of a non potable water distribution system would not occur. Scoping: EPA is requesting written comments from federal, state, and local governments, industry, nongovernmental organizations, and the general public on the need for action, the range of alternatives considered, and the potential impacts of the alternatives. Scoping comments will be accepted for 30 days, beginning with the date of this Notice. A public scoping meeting is scheduled for this proposed project on September 29, 2003 at 6: 00 pm at the Yucaipa Valley Water District at 12770 Second Street in Yucaipa, California. Because of the time limits provided by State law, responses should be sent at the earliest possible date, but not later than October 14, 2003. Estimated Date of Draft EIS Release: Spring 2004.

X. Congressional Review Act Under the Agency's current interpretation of the definition of a `` rule,'' grant solicitations such as this which are competitively awarded on the basis of selection criteria, are considered rules for the purpose of the Congressional Review Act ( CRA). The CRA, 5 U. S. C. 801 et seq., as added by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 ( SBREFA), generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating the rules must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other required information to the U. S. Senate, the U. S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. This rule is not a `` major rule'' as defined by 5 U. S. C. 804( 2).
