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
modify the route structure as necessary
to preserve the safe and efficient flow of
air traffic within the National Airspace
System.

7400.11C is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. FAA Order 7400.11C lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,
air traffic service routes, and reporting
points.
Background
The FAA is planning to
decommission the Hobby VOR/DME in
April 2019 in support of construction
activities for a new international
terminal and associated parking garage
at the William P. Hobby Airport,
Houston, TX. The ATS routes effected
by the Hobby VOR/DME
decommissioning are jet routes J–37,
J–138, and J–177, and VOR Federal
airways V–15, V–20, V–68, V–76,
V–194, V–198, V–548, and V–558.
With the planned decommissioning of
the Hobby VOR/DME, the remaining
ground-based NAVAID coverage in the
area is insufficient to enable the
continuity of the effected ATS routes.
As such, proposed modifications to the
effected jet routes and VOR Federal
airways would result in gaps in those
routes. To overcome the gaps, 2 high
altitude RNAV Q-routes (Q–24 and
Q–56) are proposed to be amended and
4 low altitude RNAV T-routes (T–200,
T–220, T–224, and T–256) are proposed
to be established to replace the jet route
and VOR Federal airway segments
proposed to be removed over the Hobby
VOR/DME. The proposed amended Qroutes would provide the route structure
necessary for departures from the
Austin, Houston, and San Antonio
terminal areas to transition to the en
route environment. The proposed new
T-routes would provide the Tower En
Route structure through the airspace
delegated to the Houston Terminal
Radar Approach Control facility
necessary to allow flights to continue
along the en route structure that extends
from San Antonio along the Gulf Coast
into Florida.
Instrument flight rules (IFR) traffic
that cannot fly Q-routes could use
adjacent jet routes J–29 between the
Palacios, TX, VORTAC and Humble,
TX, VORTAC; J–22 between the
Palacios, TX, VORTAC and Lake
Charles, LA, VORTAC; and J–2, J–86
and J–31 between the San Antonio, TX,
VORTAC and Harvey, LA, VORTAC to
circumnavigate the affected area.
Similarly, IFR traffic that cannot fly
T-routes could use adjacent VOR
Federal Airways V–70 between the
Palacios, TX, VORTAC and Sabine Pass,
LA, VOR/DME; V–556 between the
Eagle Lake, TX, VOR/DME and Sabine
Pass, LA, VOR/DME; and V–212, V–571,
and V–222 between the Industry, TX,
VORTAC and Beaumont, LA, VOR/DME
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:28 Sep 26, 2018
Jkt 244001
to circumnavigate the affected area.
Additionally, IFR traffic could file point
to point through the affected area using
fixes that will remain in place, or
receive air traffic control (ATC) radar
vectors through the area. Visual flight
rules pilots who elect to navigate via the
airways through the affected area could
also take advantage of the adjacent jet
routes, VOR Federal airways or ATC
services listed previously.
The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment
to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations
(14 CFR) part 71 to modify 3 jet routes,
2 Q-routes, and 8 VOR Federal airways,
and establish 4 T-routes due to the
planned decommissioning of the Hobby,
TX, VOR/DME. The proposed ATS route
amendments are to the descriptions of
J–37, J–138, J–177, Q–24, Q–56, V–15,
V–20, V–68, V–76, V–194, V–198,
V–548, and V–558, and the proposed
new T-routes would be designated T–
200, T–220, T–224, and T–256. The
proposed amended and new ATS route
end points are listed below. Full route
descriptions are in ‘‘The Proposed
Amendment’’ section of this document.
The proposed jet route amendments
are as follows:
J–37: J–37 currently extends between
the Hobby, TX, VOR/DME and the
Coyle, NJ, VORTAC; and between the
Kennedy, NY, VOR/DME and the
Massena, NY, VORTAC. The FAA
proposes to remove the airway segment
between the Hobby, TX, VOR/DME and
the Harvey, LA, VORTAC. The
unaffected portions of the existing
airway would remain as charted.
J–138: J–138 currently extends
between the Fort Stockton, TX,
VORTAC and the Semmes, AL,
VORTAC. The FAA proposes to remove
the airway segment between the San
Antonio, TX, VORTAC and the Lake
Charles, LA, VORTAC. The unaffected
portions of the existing airway would
remain as charted.
J–177: J–177 currently extends
between the Humble, TX, VORTAC and
the Tampico, Mexico, VOR/DME,
excluding the portion south of lat.
26°00′00″ N. The FAA proposes to
remove the airway segment between the
Humble, TX, VORTAC and the Palacios,
TX, VORTAC. The unaffected portions
of the existing airway would remain as
charted.
The proposed Q-route amendments
are as follows:
Q–24: Q–24 currently extends
between the Lake Charles, LA, VORTAC
and the PAYTN, AL, fix. The FAA
proposes to extend the route west of the
Lake Charles, LA, VORTAC to the San
Antonio, TX, VORTAC. The San

Regulatory Notices and Analyses
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. It,
therefore: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under Executive
Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant
rule’’ under Department of
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:28 Sep 26, 2018
Jkt 244001
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.
Environmental Review
This proposal will be subject to an
environmental analysis in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F,
‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final
regulatory action.

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 modify the route structure as necessary to
preserve the safe and efficient flow of air traffic within the National
Airspace System.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference
This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11C, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 13, 2018, and effective
September 15, 2018. FAA Order
[[Page 48731]]
7400.11C is publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of
this document. FAA Order 7400.11C lists Class A, B, C, D, and E
airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and reporting points.
Background
The FAA is planning to decommission the Hobby VOR/DME in April 2019
in support of construction activities for a new international terminal
and associated parking garage at the William P. Hobby Airport, Houston,
TX. The ATS routes effected by the Hobby VOR/DME decommissioning are
jet routes J-37, J-138, and J-177, and VOR Federal airways V-15, V-20,
V-68, V-76, V-194, V-198, V-548, and V-558.
With the planned decommissioning of the Hobby VOR/DME, the
remaining ground-based NAVAID coverage in the area is insufficient to
enable the continuity of the effected ATS routes. As such, proposed
modifications to the effected jet routes and VOR Federal airways would
result in gaps in those routes. To overcome the gaps, 2 high altitude
RNAV Q-routes (Q-24 and Q-56) are proposed to be amended and 4 low
altitude RNAV T-routes (T-200, T-220, T-224, and T-256) are proposed to
be established to replace the jet route and VOR Federal airway segments
proposed to be removed over the Hobby VOR/DME. The proposed amended Q-
routes would provide the route structure necessary for departures from
the Austin, Houston, and San Antonio terminal areas to transition to
the en route environment. The proposed new T-routes would provide the
Tower En Route structure through the airspace delegated to the Houston
Terminal Radar Approach Control facility necessary to allow flights to
continue along the en route structure that extends from San Antonio
along the Gulf Coast into Florida.
Instrument flight rules (IFR) traffic that cannot fly Q-routes
could use adjacent jet routes J-29 between the Palacios, TX, VORTAC and
Humble, TX, VORTAC; J-22 between the Palacios, TX, VORTAC and Lake
Charles, LA, VORTAC; and J-2, J-86 and J-31 between the San Antonio,
TX, VORTAC and Harvey, LA, VORTAC to circumnavigate the affected area.
Similarly, IFR traffic that cannot fly T-routes could use adjacent VOR
Federal Airways V-70 between the Palacios, TX, VORTAC and Sabine Pass,
LA, VOR/DME; V-556 between the Eagle Lake, TX, VOR/DME and Sabine Pass,
LA, VOR/DME; and V-212, V-571, and V-222 between the Industry, TX,
VORTAC and Beaumont, LA, VOR/DME to circumnavigate the affected area.
Additionally, IFR traffic could file point to point through the
affected area using fixes that will remain in place, or receive air
traffic control (ATC) radar vectors through the area. Visual flight
rules pilots who elect to navigate via the airways through the affected
area could also take advantage of the adjacent jet routes, VOR Federal
airways or ATC services listed previously.
The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to modify 3 jet routes, 2 Q-routes, and 8
VOR Federal airways, and establish 4 T-routes due to the planned
decommissioning of the Hobby, TX, VOR/DME. The proposed ATS route
amendments are to the descriptions of J-37, J-138, J-177, Q-24, Q-56,
V-15, V-20, V-68, V-76, V-194, V-198, V-548, and V-558, and the
proposed new T-routes would be designated T-200, T-220, T-224, and T-
256. The proposed amended and new ATS route end points are listed
below. Full route descriptions are in ``The Proposed Amendment''
section of this document.
The proposed jet route amendments are as follows:
J-37: J-37 currently extends between the Hobby, TX, VOR/DME and the
Coyle, NJ, VORTAC; and between the Kennedy, NY, VOR/DME and the
Massena, NY, VORTAC. The FAA proposes to remove the airway segment
between the Hobby, TX, VOR/DME and the Harvey, LA, VORTAC. The
unaffected portions of the existing airway would remain as charted.
J-138: J-138 currently extends between the Fort Stockton, TX,
VORTAC and the Semmes, AL, VORTAC. The FAA proposes to remove the
airway segment between the San Antonio, TX, VORTAC and the Lake
Charles, LA, VORTAC. The unaffected portions of the existing airway
would remain as charted.
J-177: J-177 currently extends between the Humble, TX, VORTAC and
the Tampico, Mexico, VOR/DME, excluding the portion south of lat.
26[deg]00'00'' N. The FAA proposes to remove the airway segment between
the Humble, TX, VORTAC and the Palacios, TX, VORTAC. The unaffected
portions of the existing airway would remain as charted.
The proposed Q-route amendments are as follows:
Q-24: Q-24 currently extends between the Lake Charles, LA, VORTAC
and the PAYTN, AL, fix. The FAA proposes to extend the route west of
the Lake Charles, LA, VORTAC to the San Antonio, TX, VORTAC. The San
Antonio, TX, VORTAC and MOLLR, TX, WP would be added prior to the Lake
Charles, LA VORTAC. The unaffected portions of the existing airway
would remain as charted.
Q-56: Q-56 currently extends between the CATLN, AL, fix and the
KIWII, VA, WP. The FAA proposes to extend the route south of the CATLN,
AL, fix to the San Antonio, TX, VORTAC. The San Antonio, TX, VORTAC;
MOLLR, TX, WP; PEKON, LA, fix; Harvey, LA, VORTAC; and Semmes, AL,
VORTAC would be added prior to the CATLN, AL, fix. Additionally, the
KBLER, GA, WP would be removed between the CATLN, AL, fix and the
KELLN, SC, WP. The unaffected portions of the existing airway would
remain as charted.
The proposed VOR Federal airway amendments are as follows:
V-15: V-15 currently extends between the Hobby, TX, VOR/DME and the
Neosho, MO, VOR/DME; and between the Sioux City, IA, VORTAC and the
Minot, ND, VORTAC. The FAA proposes to remove the airway segment
between the Hobby, TX, VOR/DME and the Navasota, TX, VOR/DME. The
unaffected portions of the existing airway would remain as charted.
V-20: V-20 currently extends between the McAllen, TX, VOR/DME and
the Nottingham, MD, VORTAC. The FAA proposes to remove the airway
segment between the Palacios, TX, VORTAC and the Beaumont, TX, VOR/DME.
The unaffected portions of the existing airway would remain as charted.
V-68: V-68 currently extends between the Montrose, CO, VOR/DME and
the Hobby, TX, VOR/DME. The FAA proposes to remove the airway segment
between the Industry, TX, VORTAC and the Hobby, TX, VOR/DME. The
unaffected portions of the existing airway would remain as charted.
V-76: V-76 currently extends between the Lubbock, TX, VORTAC and
the Hobby, TX, VOR/DME. The FAA proposes to remove the airway segment
between the Industry, TX, VORTAC and the Hobby, TX, VOR/DME. The
unaffected portions of the existing airway would remain as charted.
V-194: V-194 currently extends between the Cedar Creek, TX, VORTAC
and the Meridian, MS, VORTAC; and between the Liberty, NC, VORTAC and
the intersection of the Cofield, NC, VORTAC 077[deg] and Norfolk, VA,
VORTAC 209[deg] radials (SUNNS fix). The FAA proposes to remove the
airway segment between the College Station, TX, VORTAC and the Sabine
Pass, TX, VOR/DME. The unaffected portions of
[[Page 48732]]
the existing airway would remain as charted.
V-198: V-198 currently extends between the San Simon, AZ, VORTAC
and the Craig, FL, VORTAC. The FAA proposes to remove the airway
segment between the Eagle Lake, TX, VOR/DME and the Sabine Pass, TX,

All radials in the route descriptions below are unchanged and
stated in True degrees.
Jet routes are published in paragraph 2004, high altitude RNAV Q-
routes are published in paragraph 2006, Domestic VOR Federal airways
are published in paragraph 6010(a), and low altitude RNAV T-routes are
published in paragraph 6011 of FAA Order 7400.11C dated August 13,
2018, and effective September 15, 2018, which is incorporated by
reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The jet routes, Q-routes, VOR Federal
airways, and T-routes listed in this document will be subsequently
published in the Order.
Regulatory Notices and Analyses
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.
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 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.
Environmental Review
This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
