Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 202 / Thursday, October 20, 2022 / Rules and Regulations 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 northwest United States to maintain the efficient flow of air traffic within the National Airspace System. History The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking for Docket No. FAA 2021–0416 in the Federal Register (86 FR 29530; June 2, 2021), revoking Jet Route J–591 in the vicinity of Bellingham, WA. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal. No comments were received. Jet Routes are published in paragraph 2004 of FAA Order JO 7400.11G, dated August 19, 2022, and effective September 15, 2022, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1.

FAA Order JO 7400.11G is publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11G 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 revoking Jet Route J–591 due to NAV CANADA’s actions revoking the route within Canada. The change is outlined below. J–591: J–591 extended between the Whatcom, WA, VHF Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) and the Kelowna, BC, Canada, navigational aids, excluding the segment within Canada, before NAV CANADA revoked the route within Canadian airspace in 2021. The route currently extends between the Whatcom VerDate Sep<11>2014 15:48 Oct 19, 2022 Jkt 259001 VORTAC and the United States/Canada border. The route is revoked in its entirety. 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 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 revoking Jet Route J– 591 in the vicinity of Bellingham, WA, 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). 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. Accordingly, the FAA has determined that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment or environmental impact study.

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 establishes restricted area airspace in the vicinity of Trona, CA, to contain activities deemed hazardous to non-participating aircraft. The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for Docket No. FAA–2021–0650 in the Federal Register (86 FR 57611; October 18, 2021) proposing to establish restricted area R–2511 in the vicinity of Trona, CA, to support testing and training activities by the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD), China Lake, CA. R–2511 is needed to provide a connection between restricted areas R–2505 and R–2524 to segregate the testing and evaluation of hazardous weapons systems, and other unproven aviation platforms in the early development cycle from nonparticipating aircraft. NAWCWD will use R–2511 to contain free flight weapons systems as they transit from launch areas within R–2505 to target areas within R–2524, and/or from launch areas within R–2524 to target areas within R–2505. This airspace, situated between restricted areas R– 2505 and R–2524, has been variously referred to as: Trona Pass, Trona Corridor, or Trona Gap. Since 1995, the containment of military hazardous weapons system activities transiting the airspace between R–2505 and R–2524 was accomplished through the use of a controlled firing area (CFA) located in that airspace between R–2505 and R– 2524. The FAA has determined that a CFA is not the appropriate type of special use airspace (SUA) for this activity because CFAs are not depicted on aeronautical charts, and because PO 00000 Frm 00021 Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 19, 2022, and effective September 15, 2022, is amended as follows: Paragraph 6011 United States Area Navigation Routes. * * * * * (Lat. 56°00′45.21″ N, long. 134°35′53.84″ W) (Lat. 56°28′03.75″ N, long. 133°04′59.21″ W) (Lat. 56°30′41.67″ N, long. 132°28′52.38″ W) History [Docket No. FAA–2021–0650; Airspace Docket No. 21–AWP–11] 63683 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 hazardous activity in a CFA must be immediately suspended upon observation or notification that a nonparticipating aircraft is approaching the area. Based on these criteria, a CFA is not practical for accommodating NAWCWD’s mission requirements. A restricted area is the appropriate type of SUA to safely segregate hazardous activities from nonparticipating aircraft operating in this area. Restricted areas are depicted on aeronautical charts allowing for ready identification by pilots. R–2511, which replaces the CFA, was designed with the same lateral and vertical parameters as the Trona CFA. Interested parties were invited to submit comments on the NPRM. A total of 65 comments were posted to the regulations.gov website in response to the NPRM. Comments were received from the following organizations: Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA); Centurion Flight Services; Golden State Air Charter; Loyd’s Aviation; and, Soaring Society of America (SSA). In addition, 58 individuals submitted comments. Two individuals submitted their comment twice. The issues raised by the commenters are addressed below. Discussion of Comments Some commenters questioned the need for establishing R–2511 contending that there is already enough existing restricted airspace in the area which should be used to accomplish the NAWCWD’s hazardous activities. In response, the NAWCWD considered whether there are alternatives to the proposed R–2511 that might meet the Research, Development, Acquisition, Testing, and Evaluation (RDAT&E) and training mission requirements. To qualify, the SUA must be able to accommodate the flight profile requirements; the launch and target areas must have the supporting ground infrastructure needed to properly conduct RDAT&E events, score tests, and record results; the impact areas must be on government owned or controlled land; and the capability to E:\FR\FM\20OCR1.SGM 20OCR1

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 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 (NPRM) for Docket 
No. FAA-2021-1100 in the Federal Register (86 FR 71411; December 16, 
2021), amending RNAV route T-241 in the vicinity of Level Island, 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.
    United States Area Navigation Routes are published in paragraph 
6011 of FAA Order JO 7400.11G, dated August 19, 2022, and effective 
September 15, 2022, 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.

Difference From the NPRM

    In the NPRM, the LATCH, AK, route point was incorrectly listed as a 
waypoint (WP) instead of correctly identifying it as a Fix. This action 
corrects that error and lists the LATCH, AK, route point as a Fix. This 
correction is editorial only and does not change the alignment of RNAV 
route T-241.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order JO 7400.11G, Airspace Designations 
and Reporting Points, dated August 19, 2022, and effective September 
15, 2022. FAA Order JO 7400.11G is publicly available as listed in the 
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11G 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 amending RNAV route T-241 in 
the vicinity of Level Island, AK, in support of a large and 
comprehensive T-route modernization project for the state of Alaska. 
The route amendment is described below.
    T-241: T-241 extends between the LATCH, AK, Fix and the Level 
Island, AK (LVD), VHF Omnidirectional Range/Distance Measuring 
Equipment (VOR/DME) navigational aid. The route is amended by extending 
it eastward from the Level Island VOR/DME navigational aid to the new 
ZIDRA, AK, WP. The unaffected portion of the route remains unchanged. 
The full route description of the amended route is listed in the 
amendments 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 amending RNAV 
route T-241 in the vicinity of Level Island, 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 not significantly increase noise over noise sensitive 
areas; and increases in minimum altitudes and landing minima. 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. Accordingly, the FAA has determined that no 
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an 
environmental assessment or environmental impact study.
