E:\FR\FM\07FEP1.SGM 07FEP1 9010 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 26 / Thursday, February 7, 2013 / Proposed Rules mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS Background On October 22, 2012, the FAA published in the Federal Register a NPRM to remove a segment of VOR Federal airway V–595 due to the planned decommissioning of the Portland, OR, VOR/DME (77 FR 64444). No comments were received. The NPRM would have terminated V– 595 at the HARZL navigation fix, which is approximately 29 NM southeast of the Portland VOR/DME. Subsequent to the publication, further study showed that mountainous terrain in the area would limit the service volume of the Deschutes, OR, VORTAC to a degree that the Deschutes VORTAC could not be used to identify the entire length of the proposed segment between Deschutes and the HARZL fix. In addition, the decommissioning of the Portland VOR/DME would require raising the IFR minimum enroute altitude (MEA) along that segment to an unusable height. The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to further modify the description of VOR Federal airway V– 595. Instead of removing that segment of V–595 between the Portland, OR, VOR/ DME and the HARZL fix, as originally proposed, the FAA is now proposing to remove the entire V–595 segment between the Deschutes VORTAC and the Portland VOR/DME. Consequently, the amended V–595 would extend only between the Rogue Valley, OR, VORTAC and the Deschutes VORTAC. This action is necessary because the Portland, OR, VOR/DME, which currently serves as the northern end point of the route, is scheduled to be decommissioned. Further, due to high terrain issues, the Deschutes VORTAC service volume is not adequate to support the originally proposed segment between Deschutes and the HARZL fix. By separate rulemaking action, the FAA is proposing to establish new area navigation routes (T-routes) in the area. Since this change expands the scope of the originally proposed rule, the FAA has determined that it is necessary to reopen the comment period to provide additional opportunity for public comment. VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010, of FAA Order 7400.9W dated August 8, 2012, and effective September 15, 2012, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The VOR Federal airway listed in this document would be subsequently published in the Order. The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves an VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:53 Feb 06, 2013 Jkt 229001 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. 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 an Oregon route structure as required to preserve the safe and efficient flow of air traffic.

Background

    On October 22, 2012, the FAA published in the Federal Register a 
NPRM to remove a segment of VOR Federal airway V-595 due to the planned 
decommissioning of the Portland, OR, VOR/DME (77 FR 64444). No comments 
were received.
    The NPRM would have terminated V-595 at the HARZL navigation fix, 
which is approximately 29 NM southeast of the Portland VOR/DME. 
Subsequent to the publication, further study showed that mountainous 
terrain in the area would limit the service volume of the Deschutes, 
OR, VORTAC to a degree that the Deschutes VORTAC could not be used to 
identify the entire length of the proposed segment between Deschutes 
and the HARZL fix. In addition, the decommissioning of the Portland 
VOR/DME would require raising the IFR minimum enroute altitude (MEA) 
along that segment to an unusable height.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal 
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to further modify the description of VOR 
Federal airway V-595. Instead of removing that segment of V-595 between 
the Portland, OR, VOR/DME and the HARZL fix, as originally proposed, 
the FAA is now proposing to remove the entire V-595 segment between the 
Deschutes VORTAC and the Portland VOR/DME. Consequently, the amended V-
595 would extend only between the Rogue Valley, OR, VORTAC and the 
Deschutes VORTAC. This action is necessary because the Portland, OR, 
VOR/DME, which currently serves as the northern end point of the route, 
is scheduled to be decommissioned. Further, due to high terrain issues, 
the Deschutes VORTAC service volume is not adequate to support the 
originally proposed segment between Deschutes and the HARZL fix. By 
separate rulemaking action, the FAA is proposing to establish new area 
navigation routes (T-routes) in the area.
    Since this change expands the scope of the originally proposed 
rule, the FAA has determined that it is necessary to reopen the comment 
period to provide additional opportunity for public comment.
    VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010, of FAA Order 
7400.9W dated August 8, 2012, and effective September 15, 2012, which 
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The VOR Federal airway 
listed in this document would be subsequently published in the 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 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.
    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 an Oregon route structure as required to preserve the 
safe and efficient flow of air traffic.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in 
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
