Proposed Modification of Area Navigation (RNAV) Route T-265, IL, 78303-78305 [2013-30693]
Download as PDF
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 248 / Thursday, December 26, 2013 / Proposed Rules
transition to an RNAV route structure in
support of the NextGen initiative.
T–325: This proposed new route
would extend between BWG and TTH to
replace the cancelled Federal airway
route segment of V–243 between BWG
and TTH described above. The proposed
routing of T–325 between BWG and the
APALO, IN, waypoint (WP), and
between the new BUNKA, IN, WP and
TTH, are exact overlays of the route
segments of V–243 proposed for
cancellation.
The navigation aid radials cited in the
proposed VOR Federal airway route
description, below, are stated relative to
True north.
Domestic VOR Federal airways are
published in paragraph 6010(a) and low
altitude RNAV routes (T) are published
in paragraph 6011, respectively, of FAA
Order 7400.9X dated August 7, 2013,
and effective September 15, 2013, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The VOR Federal airway and low
altitude RNAV route 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 would 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 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 would modify the route structure as
necessary to preserve the safe and
efficient flow of air traffic within the
NAS.
Environmental Review
This proposal will be subject to an
environmental analysis in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1E,
‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final
regulatory action.

The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment
to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations
(14 CFR) part 71 to modify T–265 in
support of the OMP/CAP. As part of the
OMP/CAP, the RFD/C90 airspace
boundary will be moved to the west.
This proposed action would re-align T–
265 slightly to the west by replacing the
first two waypoints in the existing route,
KELSI and SIMMN, with two airway
intersection fixes, AHMED and START,
respectively, and then re-designating the
remaining waypoints in the route,
BULLZ and VEENA, as airway
intersection fixes also. The proposed
route modification would ensure
appropriate lateral spacing from the new
RFD/C90 airspace boundary and
eliminate the need for manual air traffic
control (ATC) coordination or aircraft to
accomplish frequency changes between
the two facilities. This modification
would shorten T–265 by almost two
nautical miles while providing the same
level of convenience to the flying public
with an easy way to file and fly around
the Chicago Class B airspace area
between Chicago/Rockford International
Airport, IL, and Chicago O’Hare
International Airport, IL.
Low altitude RNAV routes are
published in paragraph 6011 of FAA
Order 7400.9X, dated August 7, 2013,
and effective September 15, 2013, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The RNAV route listed in this
document would be subsequently
published in the Order.

energy labeling for major household
appliances and other consumer
products to help consumers compare
competing models. When first
published in 1979, the Rule applied to
eight product categories: Refrigerators,
refrigerator-freezers, freezers,
dishwashers, water heaters, clothes
washers, room air conditioners, and
furnaces. The Commission has since
expanded the Rule’s coverage to include
central air conditioners, heat pumps,
plumbing products, lighting products,
ceiling fans, certain types of water
heaters, and televisions.
The Rule requires manufacturers to
attach yellow EnergyGuide labels on
many of these products, and prohibits
retailers from removing the labels or
rendering them illegible. In addition,
the Rule directs sellers, including
retailers, to post label information on
Web sites and in paper catalogs from
which consumers can order products.
EnergyGuide labels for covered
appliances must contain three key
disclosures: Estimated annual energy
cost (for most products); a product’s
energy consumption or energy
efficiency rating as determined from
Department of Energy (DOE) test
procedures; and a comparability range
displaying the highest and lowest
energy costs or efficiency ratings for all
similar models.1 For energy cost
calculations, the Rule specifies national
average costs for applicable energy
sources (e.g., electricity, natural gas, oil)
as calculated by DOE. The Rule sets a
five-year schedule for updating range of
comparability and average unit energy
cost information.2 The Commission
updates the range information based on
manufacturer data submitted pursuant
to the Rule’s reporting requirements.
1 Where no ‘‘applicable’’ DOE test exists for
televisions, EPCA authorizes the Commission to use
‘‘adequate non-Department of Energy test
procedures’’ to obtain information for energy
disclosures. 42 U.S.C. 6294(a)(2)(I)(ii). During FTC’s
television labeling proceeding, DOE announced
plans to develop a new test procedure. 74 FR 53640,
