FAA Order 7400.11D is publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11D 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 VOR Federal airways V– 11 and V–275. The planned decommissioning of the Waterville, OH, VOR has made this action necessary. The VOR Federal airway changes are outlined below. V–11: V–11 extends between the Brookley, AL, VORTAC and the intersection of the Fort Wayne, IN, VORTAC 038° and Waterville, OH, VOR/DME 273° radials (EDGEE fix). The EDGEE fix in the airway description is amended to describe it as the intersection of the existing Fort Wayne VORTAC 038° radial and the Flag City, OH, VORTAC 308° radial. The unaffected portions of the existing airway remain as charted. V–275: V–275 extends between the Cincinnati, KY, VORTAC and the intersection of the Dayton, OH, VOR/ DME 007° and the Waterville, OH, VOR/ DME 246° radials (KLOEE fix). The KLOEE fix in the airway description is amended to describe it as the intersection of the existing Dayton, OH, VOR/DME 007° radial and the Flag City, OH, VORTAC 313° radial. Additionally, an editorial correction changes the state abbreviation for the Cincinnati VORTAC listed in the description from ‘‘OH’’ to ‘‘KY’’. The unaffected portions of the existing airway remain as charted. All radials in the route descriptions are stated in True degrees. 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 PO 00000 Frm 00006 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 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 amending the EDGEE fix and KLOEE fix NAVAID radial computations in VOR Federal airways V–61 and V–275, respectively, has no potential to cause any significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment. Therefore, this airspace action has been categorically excluded from further environmental impact review in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and its implementing regulations at 40 CFR parts 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 FAA Order 1050.1F, paragraph 5–2 regarding Extraordinary Circumstances, the FAA has reviewed this action for factors and circumstances in which a normally categorically excluded action may have a significant environmental impact requiring further analysis.

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 modifies the air traffic service route structure in the 
National Airspace System as necessary to preserve the safe and 
efficient flow of air traffic.

History

    The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking for Docket No. 
FAA-2019-0688 in the Federal Register (84 FR 52049; October 1, 2019), 
amending VOR Federal airways V-11 and V-275 due to the planned 
decommissioning of the VOR portion of the Waterville, OH, VOR/DME 
NAVAID. Interested parties were invited to participate in this 
rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal. No 
comments were received.
    VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010(a) of FAA Order 
7400.11D dated August 8, 2019, and effective September 15, 2019, which 
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The VOR Federal airways 
listed in this document will be subsequently published in the Order.
    FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is 
published yearly and effective on September 15.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.11D, Airspace Designations and 
Reporting Points, dated August 8, 2019, and effective September 15, 
2019. FAA Order 7400.11D is publicly available as listed in the 
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11D 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 VOR Federal airways V-11 and V-275. The planned 
decommissioning of the Waterville, OH, VOR has made this action 
necessary. The VOR Federal airway changes are outlined below.
    V-11: V-11 extends between the Brookley, AL, VORTAC and the 
intersection of the Fort Wayne, IN, VORTAC 038[deg] and Waterville, OH, 
VOR/DME 273[deg] radials (EDGEE fix). The EDGEE fix in the airway 
description is amended to describe it as the intersection of the 
existing Fort Wayne VORTAC 038[deg] radial and the Flag City, OH, 
VORTAC 308[deg] radial. The unaffected portions of the existing airway 
remain as charted.
    V-275: V-275 extends between the Cincinnati, KY, VORTAC and the 
intersection of the Dayton, OH, VOR/DME 007[deg] and the Waterville, 
OH, VOR/DME 246[deg] radials (KLOEE fix). The KLOEE fix in the airway 
description is amended to describe it as the intersection of the 
existing Dayton, OH, VOR/DME 007[deg] radial and the Flag City, OH, 
VORTAC 313[deg] radial. Additionally, an editorial correction changes 
the state abbreviation for the Cincinnati VORTAC listed in the 
description from ``OH'' to ``KY''. The unaffected portions of the 
existing airway remain as charted.
    All radials in the route descriptions are stated in True degrees.

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 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 amending the 
EDGEE fix and KLOEE fix NAVAID radial computations in VOR Federal 
airways V-61 and V-275, respectively, has no potential to cause any 
significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary circumstances 
exist that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment. 
Therefore, this airspace action has been categorically excluded from 
further environmental impact review in accordance with the National 
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and its implementing regulations at 40 
CFR parts 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;
