Test Activity, Fort Greely, AK'' to ``U.S. Army, Commander, Cold
Regions Test Center Fort Greely, AK''. The FAA is taking this action in

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 73 by changing the using agency of R-2202A, B, and C, Fort Greely,
AK, from ``U.S. Army, Commander, Cold Regions Test Activity, Fort
Greely, AK'' to ``U.S. Army, Commander, Cold Regions Test Center Fort
Greely, AK''. This is an administrative change and does not affect the
boundaries; designated altitudes; or activities conducted within the
restricted areas. Therefore, notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C.
553(b) are unnecessary.
    Section 73.22 of Title 14 CFR part 73 was republished in FAA Order
7400.8M, dated January 6, 2006.
    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.
Therefore, this 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 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.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with 311d., FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures''. This airspace action is not expected to cause any
potentially significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary
circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental
assessment.
