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 would
modify the route structure as necessary
to preserve the safe and efficient flow of
air traffic within the National Airspace
System (NAS).
Comments Invited
The FAA invites interested persons to
participate in this rulemaking by
submitting written comments, data, or
views. Comments are specifically
invited on the overall regulatory,
aeronautical, economic, environmental,
and energy-related aspects of the
proposal. The most helpful comments
reference a specific segment of the
proposal, explain the reason for any
recommended change, and include
supporting data. To ensure the docket
does not contain duplicate comments,
commenters should submit only one
time if comments are filed
electronically, or commenters should
send only one copy of written
comments if comments are filed in
writing.
The FAA will file in the docket all
comments it receives, as well as a report
summarizing each substantive public
contact with FAA personnel concerning
this proposed rulemaking. Before acting
on this proposal, the FAA will consider
all comments it receives on or before the
closing date for comments. The FAA
will consider comments filed after the
comment period has closed if it is
possible to do so without incurring
expense or delay. The FAA may change
this proposal in light of the comments
it receives.
Privacy: In accordance with 5 U.S.C.
553(c), DOT solicits comments from the
public to better inform its rulemaking
process. DOT posts these comments,
without edit, including any personal
information the commenter provides, to
www.regulations.gov, as described in
the system of records notice (DOT/ALL–

Incorporation by Reference
United States Area Navigation Routes
are published in paragraph 2006 (Q
routes) and paragraph 6011 (T routes) of
FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points,
which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1 on an annual basis. This
document proposes to amend the
current version of that order, FAA Order
JO 7400.11H, dated August 11, 2023,
and effective September 15, 2023. These
updates would be published in the next
update to FAA Order JO 7400.11. That
order is publicly available as listed in
the ADDRESSES section of this document.
FAA Order JO 7400.11H lists Class A,
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic
service routes, and reporting points.
Background
This action proposes to establish
United States Area Navigation Routes
(RNAV) Q–143 and T–467 in southern
Utah. The FAA is proposing this action
to provide alternative routing around
the TIPET and SEVIER Air Traffic
Control Assigned Airspaces (ATCAA)
and the WHITE ELK and GANDY
Military Operations Areas (MOA). This
action would improve the safety and
efficiency of the NAS by offering high
and low altitude alternate RNAV routing
when the aforementioned special use
airspace is active. Currently, pilots are
issued point-to-point clearances from air
traffic control to ensure proper
separation is maintained between the
aircraft and the active special use
airspace. The ability to issue a route
clearance increases safety of flight and
efficiency by reducing the workload on
air traffic controllers and pilots. Q–143
would extend between the WINEN,
waypoint (WP), UT to the BROPH, WP,
ID and provide alternate routing to Q–
73 when the TIPET and SEVIER
ATCAAs are active. T–467 would
extend between the BERYL, Fix, UT and
the BROPH, WP, ID and provide
alternative routing when the WHITE
ELK and GANDY MOAs are active.
The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment
to 14 CFR part 71 establishing United
States Area Navigation Routes (RNAV)
Q–143 and T–467 in southern Utah. The
FAA is proposing this action to provide
alternative routing around the TIPET
and SEVIER ATCAAs and the WHITE
ELK and GANDY MOAs when active.
T–467: T–467 would extend between
the BERYL, Fix, UT and the BROPH,
WP, ID and provide alternative routing
when the WHITE ELK and GANDY
MOAs are active.
Q–143: Q–143 would extend between
the WINEN, WP, UT to the BROPH, WP,
ID and provide alternate routing to Q–
73 when the TIPET and SEVIER
ATCAAs are active.
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

Incorporation by Reference
United States Area Navigation Routes are published in paragraph
2006 (Q routes) and paragraph 6011 (T routes) of FAA Order JO 7400.11,
Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, which is incorporated by
reference in 14 CFR 71.1 on an annual basis. This document proposes to
amend the current version of that order, FAA Order JO 7400.11H, dated
August 11, 2023, and effective September 15, 2023. These updates would
be published in the next update to FAA Order JO 7400.11. That order is
publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document.
FAA Order JO 7400.11H lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,
air traffic service routes, and reporting points.
Background
This action proposes to establish United States Area Navigation
Routes (RNAV) Q-143 and T-467 in southern Utah. The FAA is proposing
this action to provide alternative routing around the TIPET and SEVIER
Air Traffic Control Assigned Airspaces (ATCAA) and the WHITE ELK and
GANDY Military Operations Areas (MOA). This action would improve the
safety and efficiency of the NAS by offering high and low altitude
alternate RNAV routing when the aforementioned special use airspace is
active. Currently, pilots are issued point-to-point clearances from air
traffic control to ensure proper separation is maintained between the
aircraft and the active special use airspace. The ability to issue a
route clearance increases safety of flight and efficiency by reducing
the workload on air traffic controllers and pilots. Q-143 would extend
between the WINEN, waypoint (WP), UT to the BROPH, WP, ID and provide
alternate routing to Q-73 when the TIPET and SEVIER ATCAAs are active.
T-467 would extend between the BERYL, Fix, UT and the BROPH, WP, ID and
provide alternative routing when the WHITE ELK and GANDY MOAs are
active.
The Proposal
The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 establishing
United States Area Navigation Routes (RNAV) Q-143 and T-467 in southern
Utah. The FAA is proposing this action to provide alternative routing
around the TIPET and SEVIER ATCAAs and the WHITE ELK and GANDY MOAs
when active.
T-467: T-467 would extend between the BERYL, Fix, UT and the BROPH,
WP, ID and provide alternative routing when the WHITE ELK and GANDY
MOAs are active.
Q-143: Q-143 would extend between the WINEN, WP, UT to the BROPH,
WP, ID and provide alternate routing to Q-73 when the TIPET and SEVIER
ATCAAs are active.
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.
