Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference This document proposes to amend FAA Order JO 7400.11F, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 10, 2021, and effective September 15, 2021. FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11F lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and reporting points. The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 to amend jet routes J–20, J–31, J–41, and J–73; and to remove J–69, and high altitude RNAV route Q–63, in the eastern United States. This action supports the VOR MON program. The proposed route changes are as follows: J–20: J–20 currently extends from Seattle, WA, to Montgomery, AL. This action would remove the segments to Meridian, MS, and Montgomery, AL. A new RNAV route, Q–184, is being proposed under a separate docket action. This would provide an alternative to the segments that would be removed from J–20. As amended, J– 20 would extend from Seattle, WA, to Magnolia, MS. J–31: J–31 currently extends from Leeville, LA, to Vulcan, AL. This action would remove the segment from Meridian, MS, to Vulcan, AL. As amended, J–31 would extend from Leeville, LA, to Meridian, MS. PO 00000 Frm 00018 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 J–41: J–41 currently extends from Montgomery, AL, to Omaha, IA. The FAA proposes to remove the segments between Montgomery, AL and Memphis, TN. As amended, J–41 would extend from Memphis, TN to Omaha, IA. J–69: J–69 currently extends from Semmes, AL to Vulcan, AL. The route is not required for air traffic control purposes. This action would remove the entire route. Q–63: Q–63 currently extends between the DOOGE, VA, RNAV waypoint (WP) and the HEVAN, IN, WP. The FAA proposes to remove Q–63 because it will be replaced by an extension of Q–93 which is being proposed in a separate docket action. Jet routes are published in paragraph 2004, and United States area navigation routes are published in paragraph 2006, respectively, of FAA Order JO 7400.11F dated August 10, 2021, and effective September 15, 2021, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The jet routes and area navigation route listed in this document would be subsequently amended in, or removed from FAA Order JO 7400.11. FAA Order JO 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 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.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order JO 7400.11F, Airspace 
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 10, 2021, and effective 
September 15, 2021. FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly available as 
listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11F 
lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service 
routes, and reporting points.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 to amend jet 
routes J-20, J-31, J-41, and J-73; and to remove J-69, and high 
altitude RNAV route Q-63, in the eastern United States. This action 
supports the VOR MON program.
    The proposed route changes are as follows:
    J-20: J-20 currently extends from Seattle, WA, to Montgomery, AL. 
This action would remove the segments to Meridian, MS, and Montgomery, 
AL. A new RNAV route, Q-184, is being proposed under a separate docket 
action. This would provide an alternative to the segments that would be 
removed from J-20. As amended, J-20 would extend from Seattle, WA, to 
Magnolia, MS.
    J-31: J-31 currently extends from Leeville, LA, to Vulcan, AL. This 
action would remove the segment from Meridian, MS, to Vulcan, AL. As 
amended, J-31 would extend from Leeville, LA, to Meridian, MS.
    J-41: J-41 currently extends from Montgomery, AL, to Omaha, IA. The 
FAA proposes to remove the segments between Montgomery, AL and Memphis, 
TN. As amended, J-41 would extend from Memphis, TN to Omaha, IA.
    J-69: J-69 currently extends from Semmes, AL to Vulcan, AL. The 
route is not required for air traffic control purposes. This action 
would remove the entire route.
    Q-63: Q-63 currently extends between the DOOGE, VA, RNAV waypoint 
(WP) and the HEVAN, IN, WP. The FAA proposes to remove Q-63 because it 
will be replaced by an extension of Q-93 which is being proposed in a 
separate docket action.
    Jet routes are published in paragraph 2004, and United States area 
navigation routes are published in paragraph 2006, respectively, of FAA 
Order JO 7400.11F dated August 10, 2021, and effective September 15, 
2021, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The jet routes 
and area navigation route listed in this document would be subsequently 
amended in, or removed from FAA Order JO 7400.11.
    FAA Order JO 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 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.
