AGENCY: Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
This action establishes a high
altitude area navigation (RNAV) route,
designated Q–42, extending between the
New York-Philadelphia area and the
Kirksville, MO, very high frequency
omnidirectional range/tactical air
navigation (VORTAC) facility. The route
will streamline RNAV procedures in the
east-central United States by creating a
route parallel to the existing Jet Route
J–80. This action will help alleviate
departure delay issues for westbound
aircraft flying from the New York and
Philadelphia areas.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On Wednesday, January 21, 2009, the
FAA published in the Federal Register
a notice of proposed rulemaking to
establish area navigation route Q–42 (74
FR 3468). Interested parties were invited
to participate in this rulemaking effort
by submitting written comments on the
proposal. No comments were received.
In the NPRM, the latitude/longitude
for the MAALS waypoint was listed as
lat. 40°19′16″ N., long. 76°16′08″ W. The
position has since been updated in the
National Airspace System Resources
(NASR) database as lat. 40°19′19″; N.,
long. 76°16′11″ W. This is a minor
refinement of the position that does not
alter the alignment of the route.
With the exception of the editorial
change discussed above, this
amendment is the same as that proposed
in the NPRM.
The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by
establishing high altitude area
navigation route Q–42 between the
Kirksville, MO, VORTAC and the
ELIOT, PA, navigation fix. The new
route will enhance the flow of air traffic
in a major transit corridor, parallel to J–
80, and traversing airspace assigned to
the New York, Cleveland, Indianapolis,
Chicago and Kansas City Air Route
Traffic Control Centers.
High altitude RNAV routes are
published in paragraph 2006 of FAA
Order 7400.9S signed October 3, 2008
and effective October 31, 2008, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The RNAV 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. Therefore, this regulation: (1) Is
not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’
under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not
PO 00000
Frm 00022
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
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.
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 amends a portion of the en route
structure to enhance the safe and
efficient use of the NAS in the EastCentral United States.
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 311a and 311b. 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.

On April 30, 2009, the FAA published
in the Federal Register a notice of
proposed rulemaking to establish Class
D airspace at Fort Worth Spinks Airport,
Fort Worth, TX. (74 FR 19910, Docket
No. FAA–2009–0283). Interested parties
were invited to participate in this
rulemaking effort by submitting written
comments on the proposal to the FAA.
No comments were received. Class D
airspace designations are published in

The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by
establishing Class D airspace at Fort
Worth Spinks Airport, Fort Worth, TX,
for the safety and management of IFR
operations. This Class D airspace area is
effective during the specific dates and
times established in advance by a Notice
to Airmen.
The FAA has determined that this
