the existing route remain as charted.
FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on
September 15.
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
action of modifying RNAV route T–354
to expand the availability of RNAV
routing in support of NextGen
modernization efforts to transition the
NAS from a ground-based to satellitebased PBN system qualifies for
categorical exclusion under the National
Environmental Policy Act and its
implementing regulations at 40 CFR part
1500, 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). As such, this action
is not expected to result in any
potentially significant environmental
impacts. 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. The FAA has
51325
determined that no extraordinary
circumstances exist that warrant
preparation of an environmental
assessment or environmental impact
study.

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

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

airspace. This regulation is within the
scope of that authority as it establishes
Class E airspace extending upward from
700 feet above the surface at Dunn
County Weydahl Field, Killdeer, ND,
and New Town Municipal Airport, New
Town, ND, to support instrument flight
rule operations at this airport.

The FAA has determined that this
action qualifies for categorical exclusion
under the National Environmental
Policy Act in accordance with FAA
Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental

The Rule
Adoption of the Amendment
This amendment to Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71:
Establishes Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface
within a 6.4-mile radius Dunn County
Weydahl Field, Killdeer, ND, with an
extension 1.1 miles each side of the 293°
bearing from the airport extending from
the 6.4-mile radius to 7.9 miles west of
the airport;
And establishes Class E airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface within a 6.5-mile radius of
New Town Municipal Airport, New

These actions are the result of new
public instrument procedures being
established at these airports.
FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, is

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, is non-controversial and
unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a
‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a
‘‘significant rule’’ under 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.

by amending low altitude RNAV route
T–300, and establishing low altitude
RNAV routes T–391, T–393, and T–395,
in the northeastern United States. This
action expands the availability of RNAV
and improves the efficiency of the NAS
by reducing the dependency on groundbased navigation systems. The T-routes
provide RNAV capability in the
northeast U.S. where certain VOR
navigation aids are planned for
decommissioning as part of the FAA’s
VOR MON program. The following is a
general description of the routes.
T–300: T–300 is an existing route that
currently extends between the Albany,
NY (ALB) VORTAC, and the Martha’s
Vineyard, MA (MVY), VOR/DME. The
FAA is extending T–300 north of the
Albany, NY (ALB), VORTAC to the
SSENA, NY, waypoint (WP). The
SSENA, NY, WP is located in the
vicinity of the Massena, NY (MSS),
VORTAC which is planned for
decommissioning at a later date. The
following points are inserted between
the Albany VORTAC and the SSENA
WP: OTOLE, NY, Fix; GASSY, NY, Fix;
OPDIE, NY, WP; UUBER, NY, WP;
JONNN, NY, Fix; and the STANK, NY,
WP. T–300 overlies VOR Federal airway
V–203 between the Albany VORTAC,
and the GASSY, NY, Fix. From that
point, T–300 offsets to the east of V–
203, passing through the OPDIE, NY,
WP; UUBER, NY, WP; JONNN, NY, Fix;
and STANK, NY, WP, to the SSENA,
NY, WP.
The FAA is removing the Norwich,
CT (ORW), VOR/DME; the FALMA, RI,
Fix; and the Martha’s Vineyard, MA,
VOR/DME from the T–300 route
description. The Norwich VOR/DME is
replaced by the YANCT, CT, Fix which
is inserted in the route description
between the NELLIE, CT, Fix, and the
MINNK, RI, Fix. The YANCT WP is
located in the vicinity of the Norwich
VOR/DME which is planned for
decommissioning at a later date. Finally,
the current T–300 route segment that
extends between the MINNK, RI, Fix,
and the Martha’s Vineyard VOR/DME is
removed from the route and that end of
the route is realigned to proceed from
the MINNK Fix southeastward to the
NEWBE, RI, Fix, and the DEEPO, MA,
fix.
T–391: T–391 is a new route that
overlies VOR Federal airway V–29
between the TUMPS, NY, Fix, and the
Massena, NY (MSS), VORTAC. T–391
extends between the TUMPS Fix and
the SSENA, NY, WP. The SSENA WP is
located in the vicinity of the Massena
VORTAC, as described under T–300,
above. T–391 includes following points
between the TUMPS Fix and the SSENA
WP: Syracuse, NY (SYR), VORTAC;

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, is
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action''
under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
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 action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures,'' paragraph 5-6.5.a. This airspace action is not expected
to cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.
