SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Authority for This Rulemaking
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
amend the route structure as required to
preserve the safe and efficient flow of
air traffic across the U.S./Canadian
border.
jstallworth on DSK7TPTVN1PROD with RULES
History
On September 26, 2014, the FAA
published in the Federal Register a final
rule (79 FR 57758), Docket No. FAA–
2014–0295, that amended, removed, and
established multiple ATS routes in the
northcentral U.S. to reflect and
accommodate route changes being made
in Canadian airspace as part of a
Canadian airspace redesign project. The
FAA recently identified that the SASUT
waypoint name duplicates an existing
waypoint name in Mexico and advised
NAV CANADA accordingly. NAV
CANADA has elected to change the
SASUT waypoint name to DUTEL to
overcome any potential confusion
created by the SASUT waypoint name
being used in Canada and Mexico.
This rule makes the editorial
waypoint name correction to match the
FAA and Canadian aeronautical
databases. On January 19, 2017, the
FAA issued a final rule; technical
amendment that updated the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
14:49 Mar 08, 2017
Jkt 241001
geographical coordinates for five
Canadian waypoints, including SASUT
(82 FR 6212), Docket No. FAA–2016–
9319. That final rule becomes effective
on April 27, 2017. The geographic
coordinates for DUTEL (SASUT) in the
legal description in this rule reflect the
updated coordinates.
High altitude Canadian RNAV routes
(Q-routes) are published in paragraph
2007 of FAA Order 7400.11A dated
August 3, 2016, and effective September
15, 2016, which is incorporated by
reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The high
altitude Canadian RNAV routes (Qroutes) listed in this rule will be
subsequently published in the Order.
Availability and Summary of
Documents for Incorporation by
Reference
This document amends FAA Order
7400.11A, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2016,
and effective September 15, 2016. FAA
Order 7400.11A is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,
air traffic service routes, and reporting
points.
The Rule
The FAA is amending Title 14, Code
of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71
by modifying RNAV routes Q–917 and
Q–923. The route modifications are
editorial in nature and change the
SASUT waypoint name to DUTEL to
match the FAA and Canadian
aeronautical databases information. No
air traffic services are affected by this
action and no substantive changes to the
RNAV routes are being made. Therefore,
notice and public procedures under 5
U.S.C. 553(b) is unnecessary.
The RNAV route modifications
accomplished by this action are
outlined below.
Q–917: change the SASUT waypoint
name from ‘‘SASUT’’ to ‘‘DUTEL.’’
Q–923: change the SASUT waypoint
name from ‘‘SASUT’’ to ‘‘DUTEL.’’
Regulatory Notices and Analyses
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. It, therefore: (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
PO 00000
Frm 00008
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
so minimal. Since this is a routine
matter that only affects air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when
promulgated, does 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
airspace action of modifying two high
altitude RNAV Q-routes by updating the
waypoint name for one Canadian
waypoint listed in the Q-route
descriptions has no potential to cause
any significant environmental impacts,
and no extraordinary circumstances
exist that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment. Therefore,
this proposed airspace action qualifies
for categorical exclusion under the
National Environmental Policy Act and
its implementing regulations at 40 CFR
part 1500–1508, and in accordance with
FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental
Impacts: Policies and Procedures,
Paragraph 5–6.5a, which categorically
excludes from further environmental
impact review rulemaking actions that
designate or modify classes of airspace
areas, airways, routes, and reporting
points (see 14 CFR part 71, Designation
of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace
Areas; Air Traffic Service Routes; and
Reporting Points). In accordance with
FAAO 1050.1F, paragraph 5–2 regarding
Extraordinary Circumstances, this
action has been reviewed for factors and
circumstances in which a normally
categorically excluded action may have
a significant environmental impact
requiring further analysis, and it is
determined that no extraordinary
circumstances exist that warrant
preparation of an environmental
assessment.

The Drug Enforcement
Administration (DEA) implements and
enforces titles II and III of the
Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention
and Control Act of 1970, as amended. 21
U.S.C. 801–971. Titles II and III are
referred to as the ‘‘Controlled
Substances Act’’ and the ‘‘Controlled
Substances Import and Export Act,’’
respectively, and are collectively
referred to as the ‘‘Controlled
Substances Act’’ or the ‘‘CSA’’ for the
purpose of this action. The DEA
publishes the implementing regulations
for these statutes in title 21 of the Code
of Federal Regulations (CFR), chapter II.
The CSA and its implementing
regulations are designed to prevent,
detect, and eliminate the diversion of
controlled substances and listed
chemicals into the illicit market while
providing for the legitimate medical,
scientific, research, and industrial needs
of the United States. Controlled
substances have the potential for abuse

and dependence and are controlled to
protect the public health and safety.
Under the CSA, controlled substances
are classified into one of five schedules
based upon their potential for abuse,
their currently accepted medical use in
treatment in the United States, and the
degree of dependence the substance
may cause. 21 U.S.C. 812. The initial
schedules of controlled substances
established by Congress are found at 21
U.S.C. 812(c), and the current list of all
scheduled substances is published at 21
CFR part 1308.
The Improving Regulatory
Transparency for New Medical
Therapies Act (Pub. L. 114–89) was
signed into law on November 25, 2015.
This law amended the CSA and states
that in cases where the DEA receives
notification from HHS that the Secretary
has approved an application under
section 505(c) of the Federal Food, Drug,
and Cosmetic Act (FDCA), the DEA is
required to issue an interim final rule,
with opportunity for public comment
and to request a hearing, controlling the
drug not later than 90 days after
receiving such notification from HHS
and subsequently to issue a final rule.
21 U.S.C. 811(j). When controlling a
drug pursuant to section 811(j), the DEA
must apply the scheduling criteria of
subsections 811(b), (c), and (d) and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Authority for This Rulemaking
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 amend the route structure as required to preserve
the safe and efficient flow of air traffic across the U.S./Canadian
border.
History
On September 26, 2014, the FAA published in the Federal Register a

removed, and established multiple ATS routes in the northcentral U.S.
to reflect and accommodate route changes being made in Canadian
airspace as part of a Canadian airspace redesign project. The FAA
recently identified that the SASUT waypoint name duplicates an existing
waypoint name in Mexico and advised NAV CANADA accordingly. NAV CANADA
has elected to change the SASUT waypoint name to DUTEL to overcome any
potential confusion created by the SASUT waypoint name being used in
Canada and Mexico.
This rule makes the editorial waypoint name correction to match the
FAA and Canadian aeronautical databases. On January 19, 2017, the FAA
issued a final rule; technical amendment that updated the geographical
coordinates for five Canadian waypoints, including SASUT (82 FR 6212),
Docket No. FAA-2016-9319. That final rule becomes effective on April
27, 2017. The geographic coordinates for DUTEL (SASUT) in the legal
description in this rule reflect the updated coordinates.
High altitude Canadian RNAV routes (Q-routes) are published in
paragraph 2007 of FAA Order 7400.11A dated August 3, 2016, and
effective September 15, 2016, which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1. The high altitude Canadian RNAV routes (Q-routes) listed in
this rule will be subsequently published in the Order.
Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference
This document amends FAA Order 7400.11A, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2016, and effective September 15,

ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists Class A,
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.
The Rule
The FAA is amending Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 by modifying RNAV routes Q-917 and Q-923. The route
modifications are editorial in nature and change the SASUT waypoint
name to DUTEL to match the FAA and Canadian aeronautical databases
information. No air traffic services are affected by this action and no
substantive changes to the RNAV routes are being made. Therefore,
notice and public procedures under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) is unnecessary.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses
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.
It, therefore: (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 only affects air traffic procedures
and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated,
does 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 airspace action of modifying two
high altitude RNAV Q-routes by updating the waypoint name for one
Canadian waypoint listed in the Q-route descriptions has no potential
to cause any significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary
circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental
assessment. Therefore, this proposed airspace action qualifies for
categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act and
its implementing regulations at 40 CFR part 1500-1508, and in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures, Paragraph 5-6.5a, which categorically excludes from further
environmental impact review rulemaking actions that designate or modify
classes of airspace areas, airways, routes, and reporting points (see
14 CFR part 71, Designation of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace Areas;
Air Traffic Service Routes; and Reporting Points). In accordance with
FAAO 1050.1F, paragraph 5-2 regarding Extraordinary Circumstances, this
action has been reviewed for factors and circumstances in which a
normally categorically excluded action may have a significant
environmental impact requiring further analysis, and it is determined
that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of
an environmental assessment.
