SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
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 expands the
availability of RNAV in Alaska and
improves the efficient flow of air traffic
within the National Airspace System by
lessening the dependency on ground
based navigation.
History
The FAA published a notice of
proposed rulemaking for Docket No.
FAA–2021–1194 in the Federal Register
(87 FR 2370; January 14, 2022),
establishing RNAV route T–370 in the
vicinity of Kenai, AK, in support of a
large and comprehensive T-route
modernization project for the state of
Alaska. Interested parties were invited
to participate in this rulemaking effort
by submitting comments on the
proposal. No comments were received.

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 166 / Monday, August 29, 2022 / Rules and Regulations
United States Area Navigation Routes
are published in paragraph 6011 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 RNAV route listed in this
document will be published
subsequently in FAA Order JO 7400.11.
Availability and Summary of
Documents for Incorporation by
Reference
This document amends 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 Rule
This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by
establishing RNAV route T–370 in the
vicinity of Kenai, AK, in support of a
large and comprehensive T-route
modernization project for the state of
Alaska. The new route is described
below.
T–370: T–370 is a new RNAV route
established between the new WIXER,
AK, waypoint (WP), located over the
Port Heiden Airport, AK, and the Kenai,
AK (ENA), VHF Omnidirection Range/
Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/
DME) navigational aid.
The full route description of the new
route is listed in the amendment to part
71 set forth below.
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
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 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
The FAA has determined that this
airspace action of establishing RNAV
route T–370 in the vicinity of Kenai,
AK, qualifies for categorical exclusion
under the National Environmental
Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) 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), and paragraph 5–6.5i,
which categorically excludes from
further environmental review the
establishment of new or revised air
traffic control procedures conducted at
3,000 feet or more above ground level
(AGL); procedures conducted below
3,000 feet AGL that do not cause traffic
to be routinely routed over noise
sensitive areas; modifications to
currently approved procedures
conducted below 3,000 feet AGL that do

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. Accordingly, the FAA has
determined that no extraordinary
circumstances exist that warrant
preparation of an environmental
assessment or environmental impact
study.
