History
Southern California Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACON)
requested modification of V-363 to circumnavigate the Camp Pendleton
restricted area 2503D. This action would avoid the entire Camp
Pendleton, CA, range complex. This proposed action responds to that
request.
Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 (part 71) to realign V-363. The proposed
amendment would change the alignment of V-363 between the Pomona VORTAC
and the Mission Bay VORTAC. This amendment would provide users with a
routing that avoids the Camp Pendleton, CA, range complex.
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 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 proposed 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.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71
Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).

Administration proposes to amend 14 CFR part 71 as follows:
