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.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
15:53 Apr 24, 2024
Jkt 262001
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 (ATS) route structure
as necessary to preserve the safe and
efficient flow of air traffic within the
NAS.
History
The FAA published a NPRM for
Docket No. FAA 2023–2040 in the
Federal Register (88 FR 73268; October
25, 2023), proposing to establish three
RNAV routes and amend six RNAV
routes in the eastern United States.
Interested parties were invited to
participate in this rulemaking effort by
submitting written comments on the
proposal to the FAA. No comments
were received.
Differences From the NPRM
Subsequent to publication of the
NPRM, the FAA identified that two
route points had been inadvertently
omitted from the legal description of
RNAV Routes T–287 and T–398. These
route points are required to be added to
the part 71 description of each route as
it represents a turn point of one degree
or more. The HAMRR, MD, waypoint
(WP) is added between the TOMYD, PA,
WP and the DANII, MD, WP in the
description of T–287; and the MANGE,
VA, Fix is added between the BOUSY,
VA, WP and the THHMP, VA, WP in the
description of T–398. The addition of
the HAMRR WP and the MANGE Fix to
their respective routes does not
substantively alter the route of T–287
and T–398.
The FAA identified the Bangor, ME
(BGR), Very High Frequency
Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air
Navigation (VORTAC) was
inadvertently omitted from the NPRM’s
part 71 description of RNAV Route T–
295. Prior to this action, the Bangor
VORTAC was in the description of
RNAV Route T–295 and remains on the
route between the BRNNS, ME, Fix and
the LAUDS, ME, WP.
In the part 71 description of RNAV
Route T–206 the NUROE, NC, WP was
removed as intended. In the description
of the proposed changes the removal of
the NUROE WP was not addressed. The
NUROE WP remains charted on T–206
but is removed from the part 71
description as the route segments that it
PO 00000
Frm 00005
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
31605
makes up do not contain a turn of one
degree or more. In the part 71
description of RNAV Route T–287 the
BOUSY, VA, WP was inadvertently
listed as the BOUSY, NC, WP. The
BOUSY WP is located in the state of
Virginia in the National Airspace
System Resource (NASR) database and
charted as such.
Finally, in the NPRM the FAA
incorrectly listed the RUBKI, MI;
TOTHH, NY; HAVNS, OA; VYSOR, MD;
ACUTE, NC; SVILL, VA; and POORK,
VA route points as Fixes. The route
points are identified as WPs in the
NASR database and charted as WPs
accordingly. Additionally, the FAA
incorrectly listed YODAA, NY as a WP.
YODAA, NY is identified as a Fix in the
NASR database and charted as a Fix
accordingly. This final rule corrects
these errors.
Incorporation by Reference
United States Area Navigation routes
(Q-routes) are published in paragraph
2006 and United States Area Navigation
(T-routes) are published in paragraph
6011 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 amends the current version of
that order, FAA Order JO 7400.11H,
dated August 11, 2023, and effective
September 15, 2023. FAA Order JO
7400.11H is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. These amendments will be
published in the next update to FAA
Order JO 7400.11.
FAA Order JO 7400.11H 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 Routes T–480, T–
482, and T–488, and amending RNAV
Routes Q–140, T–206, T–258, T–287, T–
295, and T–398 in the eastern United
States. This action supports NextGen
which provides a modern RNAV route
structure to improve the efficiency of
the NAS. The amendments are
described below.
Q–140: Prior to this final rule, Q–140
extended between the WOBED, WA, WP
and the YODAA, NY, Fix. The route is
amended by moving the RUBKI,
Canada, WP 22 feet west of its current
position to align with the United States/
Canadian border replacing the CFCTJ,
MI, Computer Navigation Fix (CNF).
Additionally, the RAGIX, NY, Fix is
being moved 0.5 nautical miles (NM)
east to align with the United States/
Canadian border replacing the CFDHX,
NY, CNF. The RODYY, NY, WP is being

lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with RULES1
31606
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 81 / Thursday, April 25, 2024 / Rules and Regulations
replaced with the TOTHH, NY, WP due
to similar sounding route point names.
Finally, the FAA is removing fixes from
the route’s legal description for
segments that are in Canada, and
segments that contain turns of less than
one degree. The following are the route
points that are removed: GETNG, WA,
WP; CORDU, ID, Fix; PETIY, MT, WP;
CHOTE, MT, Fix; CESNA, WI, WP;
WISCN, WI, WP; PEPLA, Canada, WP;
SIKBO, Canada, WP; MEDAV, Canada,
WP; HANKK, NY, Fix; BEEPS, NY, Fix;
EXTOL, NY, Fix; MEMMS, NY, Fix; and
KODEY, NY, Fix. As amended, the route
continues to extend between the
WOBED WP and the YODAA Fix.
T–206: Prior to this final rule, T–206
extended between the ENADE, NC, WP
and the ZADEL, NC, WP. The route is
extended to the east between the ZADEL
WP and the SNOWS, NC, Fix. As
amended, the route is changed to now
extend between the ENADE, NC, WP
and the SNOWS, NC, Fix.
T–258: Prior to this final rule, T–258
extended between the MINIM, AL, Fix
and the GMINI, NC, WP. The route is
extended to the northeast between the
GMINI WP and the BOUSY, VA, WP.
Additionally, the FAA removed fixes
from the route’s legal description for
segments that contain turns of less than
one degree. The following are the route
points that are removed: CAYAP, AL,
Fix; ZIVMU, AL, Fix; DAYVS, AL, WP;
HEENA, AL, Fix; KYLEE, AL, Fix;
CAMPP, AL, Fix; and LANGA, GA, Fix.
As amended, the route is changed to
now extend between the MINIM Fix and
the BOUSY WP.
T–287: Prior to this final rule, T–287
extended between the DENNN, VA, WP
and the TOMYD, MD, WP. The route is
extended to the southwest between the
GMINI, NC, WP and the DENNN WP;
and to the northeast between the
TOMYD WP and the Kennebunk, ME
(ENE), VOR/Distance Measuring
Equipment (VOR/DME). The FAA
moved the TOMYD, MD, WP 2.8 NM
north of its current location. Moving the
TOMYD WP allows alignment with
future proposed RNAV routes, and
results in the WP being in the state of
Pennsylvania. The amended route
segment of T–287 overlays a portion of
VOR Federal Airway V–44 between the
PALEO, MD, WP and the WNSTN, NJ,
WP; a portion of VOR Federal Airway
V–139 between MANTA, NJ, Fix and
the Kennebunk VOR/DME; and a
portion of VOR Federal Airway V–454
between the SNOWS, NC, Fix and the
Lawrenceville, VA (LVL), VORTAC.
Additionally, the FAA removed fixes
from the route’s legal description for
segments that contain turns of less than
one degree. The following are the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
15:53 Apr 24, 2024
Jkt 262001
waypoints that are removed: DENNN,
VA, WP; CAARY, VA, WP; and WILMY,
VA, WP. As amended, the route is
changed to now extend between the
GMINI WP and the Kennebunk VOR/
DME.
T–295: Prior to this final rule, T–295
extended between the POORK, VA, WP
and the Presque Isle, ME (PQI), VOR/
DME. The FAA extended T–295 to the
southwest between the DUFFI, NC, Fix
and the POORK WP; added the
DOGWD, VA, Fix and the RIPKN, MD,
WP to the route; and replaced the
Wilkes Barre, PA (LVZ), VOR/DME with
the WLKES, PA, Fix. Additionally, the
FAA removed the Chester, MA (CTR),
VOR/DME from the route’s legal
description as those segments contain
turns of less than one degree. As
amended, the route is changed to now
extend between the DUFFI Fix and the
Presque Isle VOR/DME.
T–398: Prior to this final rule, T–398
extended between the RRORY, TX, WP
and the GMINI, NC, WP. The FAA
extended T–398 to the northeast
between the GMINI WP and the TAPPA,
VA, Fix. The amended route segment of
T–398 overlays a portion of VOR
Federal Airway V–155 from the
Sandhills, NC (SDZ), VORTAC to the
MANGE, VA, Fix. As amended, the
route is changed to now extend between
the RRORY WP and the TAPPA Fix.
T–480: T–480 is a new route that
extends between the Greensboro, NC
(GSO), VORTAC and the ZOLMN, NC,
Fix. T–480 overlays a portion of VOR
Federal Airway V–266 between the
Greensboro VORTAC and the South
Boston, MA (SBV), VORTAC; from the
MAZON, VA, Fix to the Wright
Brothers, NC (RBX), VOR/DME; and a
portion of Colored Federal Airway
Green 13 (G–13) from the MANTEO, NC
(MQI), Nondirectional Radio Beacon
(NDB) to the ZOLMN Fix.
T–482: T–482 is a new route that
extends between the MEYER, NC, Fix
and the COUPN, VA, WP. T–482
overlays a portion of VOR Federal
Airway V–615 between the MEYER Fix
and the DUFFI, NC, Fix.
T–488: T–488 is a new route that
extends between the Tar River, NC
(TYI), VORTAC and the RTBRO, NC,
Fix. T–488 overlays a portion of VOR
Federal Airway V–189 from the Tar
River VORTAC and the Wright Brothers,
NC (RBX), VOR/DME.
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
PO 00000
Frm 00006
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
‘‘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 of establishing RNAV Routes T–
480, T–482, and T–488, and amending
RNAV Routes Q–140, T–206, T–258, T–
287, T–295, and T–398 in the eastern
United States in support of FAA
NextGen, 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–
6.5b, which categorically excludes from
further environmental impact review
‘‘Actions regarding establishment of jet
routes and Federal airways (see 14 CFR
71.15, Designation of jet routes and VOR
Federal airways) . . .’’. As such, this
airspace action is not expected to cause
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.

IFR Altitudes; Miscellaneous
Amendments
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Final rule.
This amendment adopts
miscellaneous amendments to the
required IFR (instrument flight rules)
altitudes and changeover points for
certain Federal airways, jet routes, or
direct routes for which a minimum or
maximum en route authorized IFR
altitude is prescribed. This regulatory
action is needed because of changes
occurring in the National Airspace
System. These changes are designed to
provide for the safe and efficient use of
the navigable airspace under instrument
conditions in the affected areas.
DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, May 16,
2024.

The specified IFR altitudes, when
used in conjunction with the prescribed
changeover points for those routes,
ensure navigation aid coverage that is
adequate for safe flight operations and
free of frequency interference. The
reasons and circumstances that create
the need for this amendment involve
matters of flight safety and operational
efficiency in the National Airspace
System, are related to published
aeronautical charts that are essential to
the user, and provide for the safe and
efficient use of the navigable airspace.
In addition, those various reasons or
circumstances require making this
amendment effective before the next
scheduled charting and publication date
of the flight information to assure its
timely availability to the user. The
effective date of this amendment reflects
those considerations. In view of the
close and immediate relationship
between these regulatory changes and
safety in air commerce, I find that notice
and public procedure before adopting
this amendment are impracticable and
contrary to the public interest and that

amendment effective in less than 30
days.
Conclusion
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 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. For the same
reason, the FAA certifies that this
amendment will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

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 modifies the Air Traffic Service (ATS) route structure
as necessary to preserve the safe and efficient flow of air traffic
within the NAS.
History
The FAA published a NPRM for Docket No. FAA 2023-2040 in the
Federal Register (88 FR 73268; October 25, 2023), proposing to
establish three RNAV routes and amend six RNAV routes in the eastern
United States. Interested parties were invited to participate in this
rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the
FAA. No comments were received.
Differences From the NPRM
Subsequent to publication of the NPRM, the FAA identified that two
route points had been inadvertently omitted from the legal description
of RNAV Routes T-287 and T-398. These route points are required to be
added to the part 71 description of each route as it represents a turn
point of one degree or more. The HAMRR, MD, waypoint (WP) is added
between the TOMYD, PA, WP and the DANII, MD, WP in the description of
T-287; and the MANGE, VA, Fix is added between the BOUSY, VA, WP and
the THHMP, VA, WP in the description of T-398. The addition of the
HAMRR WP and the MANGE Fix to their respective routes does not
substantively alter the route of T-287 and T-398.
The FAA identified the Bangor, ME (BGR), Very High Frequency
Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) was
inadvertently omitted from the NPRM's part 71 description of RNAV Route
T-295. Prior to this action, the Bangor VORTAC was in the description
of RNAV Route T-295 and remains on the route between the BRNNS, ME, Fix
and the LAUDS, ME, WP.
In the part 71 description of RNAV Route T-206 the NUROE, NC, WP
was removed as intended. In the description of the proposed changes the
removal of the NUROE WP was not addressed. The NUROE WP remains charted
on T-206 but is removed from the part 71 description as the route
segments that it makes up do not contain a turn of one degree or more.
In the part 71 description of RNAV Route T-287 the BOUSY, VA, WP was
inadvertently listed as the BOUSY, NC, WP. The BOUSY WP is located in
the state of Virginia in the National Airspace System Resource (NASR)
database and charted as such.
Finally, in the NPRM the FAA incorrectly listed the RUBKI, MI;
TOTHH, NY; HAVNS, OA; VYSOR, MD; ACUTE, NC; SVILL, VA; and POORK, VA
route points as Fixes. The route points are identified as WPs in the
NASR database and charted as WPs accordingly. Additionally, the FAA
incorrectly listed YODAA, NY as a WP. YODAA, NY is identified as a Fix
in the NASR database and charted as a Fix accordingly. This final rule
corrects these errors.
Incorporation by Reference
United States Area Navigation routes (Q-routes) are published in
paragraph 2006 and United States Area Navigation (T-routes) are
published in paragraph 6011 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 amends the current
version of that order, FAA Order JO 7400.11H, dated August 11, 2023,
and effective September 15, 2023. FAA Order JO 7400.11H is publicly
available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. These
amendments will be published in the next update to FAA Order JO
7400.11.
FAA Order JO 7400.11H 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 Routes T-
480, T-482, and T-488, and amending RNAV Routes Q-140, T-206, T-258, T-
287, T-295, and T-398 in the eastern United States. This action
supports NextGen which provides a modern RNAV route structure to
improve the efficiency of the NAS. The amendments are described below.
Q-140: Prior to this final rule, Q-140 extended between the WOBED,
WA, WP and the YODAA, NY, Fix. The route is amended by moving the
RUBKI, Canada, WP 22 feet west of its current position to align with
the United States/Canadian border replacing the CFCTJ, MI, Computer
Navigation Fix (CNF). Additionally, the RAGIX, NY, Fix is being moved
0.5 nautical miles (NM) east to align with the United States/Canadian
border replacing the CFDHX, NY, CNF. The RODYY, NY, WP is being
[[Page 31606]]
replaced with the TOTHH, NY, WP due to similar sounding route point
names. Finally, the FAA is removing fixes from the route's legal
description for segments that are in Canada, and segments that contain
turns of less than one degree. The following are the route points that
are removed: GETNG, WA, WP; CORDU, ID, Fix; PETIY, MT, WP; CHOTE, MT,
Fix; CESNA, WI, WP; WISCN, WI, WP; PEPLA, Canada, WP; SIKBO, Canada,
WP; MEDAV, Canada, WP; HANKK, NY, Fix; BEEPS, NY, Fix; EXTOL, NY, Fix;
MEMMS, NY, Fix; and KODEY, NY, Fix. As amended, the route continues to
extend between the WOBED WP and the YODAA Fix.
T-206: Prior to this final rule, T-206 extended between the ENADE,
NC, WP and the ZADEL, NC, WP. The route is extended to the east between
the ZADEL WP and the SNOWS, NC, Fix. As amended, the route is changed
to now extend between the ENADE, NC, WP and the SNOWS, NC, Fix.
T-258: Prior to this final rule, T-258 extended between the MINIM,
AL, Fix and the GMINI, NC, WP. The route is extended to the northeast
between the GMINI WP and the BOUSY, VA, WP. Additionally, the FAA
removed fixes from the route's legal description for segments that
contain turns of less than one degree. The following are the route
points that are removed: CAYAP, AL, Fix; ZIVMU, AL, Fix; DAYVS, AL, WP;
HEENA, AL, Fix; KYLEE, AL, Fix; CAMPP, AL, Fix; and LANGA, GA, Fix. As
amended, the route is changed to now extend between the MINIM Fix and
the BOUSY WP.
T-287: Prior to this final rule, T-287 extended between the DENNN,
VA, WP and the TOMYD, MD, WP. The route is extended to the southwest
between the GMINI, NC, WP and the DENNN WP; and to the northeast
between the TOMYD WP and the Kennebunk, ME (ENE), VOR/Distance
Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME). The FAA moved the TOMYD, MD, WP 2.8 NM
north of its current location. Moving the TOMYD WP allows alignment
with future proposed RNAV routes, and results in the WP being in the
state of Pennsylvania. The amended route segment of T-287 overlays a
portion of VOR Federal Airway V-44 between the PALEO, MD, WP and the
WNSTN, NJ, WP; a portion of VOR Federal Airway V-139 between MANTA, NJ,
Fix and the Kennebunk VOR/DME; and a portion of VOR Federal Airway V-
454 between the SNOWS, NC, Fix and the Lawrenceville, VA (LVL), VORTAC.
Additionally, the FAA removed fixes from the route's legal description
for segments that contain turns of less than one degree. The following
are the waypoints that are removed: DENNN, VA, WP; CAARY, VA, WP; and
WILMY, VA, WP. As amended, the route is changed to now extend between
the GMINI WP and the Kennebunk VOR/DME.
T-295: Prior to this final rule, T-295 extended between the POORK,
VA, WP and the Presque Isle, ME (PQI), VOR/DME. The FAA extended T-295
to the southwest between the DUFFI, NC, Fix and the POORK WP; added the
DOGWD, VA, Fix and the RIPKN, MD, WP to the route; and replaced the
Wilkes Barre, PA (LVZ), VOR/DME with the WLKES, PA, Fix. Additionally,
the FAA removed the Chester, MA (CTR), VOR/DME from the route's legal
description as those segments contain turns of less than one degree. As
amended, the route is changed to now extend between the DUFFI Fix and
the Presque Isle VOR/DME.
T-398: Prior to this final rule, T-398 extended between the RRORY,
TX, WP and the GMINI, NC, WP. The FAA extended T-398 to the northeast
between the GMINI WP and the TAPPA, VA, Fix. The amended route segment
of T-398 overlays a portion of VOR Federal Airway V-155 from the
Sandhills, NC (SDZ), VORTAC to the MANGE, VA, Fix. As amended, the
route is changed to now extend between the RRORY WP and the TAPPA Fix.
T-480: T-480 is a new route that extends between the Greensboro, NC
(GSO), VORTAC and the ZOLMN, NC, Fix. T-480 overlays a portion of VOR
Federal Airway V-266 between the Greensboro VORTAC and the South
Boston, MA (SBV), VORTAC; from the MAZON, VA, Fix to the Wright
Brothers, NC (RBX), VOR/DME; and a portion of Colored Federal Airway
Green 13 (G-13) from the MANTEO, NC (MQI), Nondirectional Radio Beacon
(NDB) to the ZOLMN Fix.
T-482: T-482 is a new route that extends between the MEYER, NC, Fix
and the COUPN, VA, WP. T-482 overlays a portion of VOR Federal Airway
V-615 between the MEYER Fix and the DUFFI, NC, Fix.
T-488: T-488 is a new route that extends between the Tar River, NC
(TYI), VORTAC and the RTBRO, NC, Fix. T-488 overlays a portion of VOR
Federal Airway V-189 from the Tar River VORTAC and the Wright Brothers,
NC (RBX), VOR/DME.
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 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 establishing RNAV Routes
T-480, T-482, and T-488, and amending RNAV Routes Q-140, T-206, T-258,
T-287, T-295, and T-398 in the eastern United States in support of FAA
NextGen, 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 5-6.5b, which
categorically excludes from further environmental impact review
``Actions regarding establishment of jet routes and Federal airways
(see 14 CFR 71.15, Designation of jet routes and VOR Federal airways) .
. .''. As such, this airspace action is not expected to cause 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.
