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 National Airspace System. History The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking for Docket No. FAA–2023–2326 in the Federal Register (88 FR 85519; December 8, 2023), proposing to amend VOR Federal Airways V–13, V–133, and V–300, and RNAV Route T–331; establish Canadian RNAV Routes Q–924, T–765, T–776, and T–810 in U.S. airspace; and revoke Jet Route J–533 and VOR Federal Airway V–348 due to the planned decommissioning of the Thunder Bay, ON, Canada, VOR NAVAID. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal. No comments were received. Differences From the NPRM After publishing the NPRM in the Federal Register, the FAA identified an error in the V–300 proposed amendment discussed in The Proposal section of the preamble. In the paragraph addressing V–300 amendments, it stated the FAA proposed to remove the airway segment between the Victoria VOR/Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME) and the Vancouver VOR/DME to match the airway segment removal action NAV CANADA is taking. However, at the end of the paragraph, it stated that as amended, the airway would be changed to extend between the Victoria VOR/ DME and the Vancouver VOR/DME, in error. This action removes the V–300 airway segment between the Victoria VOR/DME and the Vancouver VOR/ DME as it was published in the proposed regulatory text of the NPRM and is corrected in this final rule. PO 00000 Frm 00016 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 The FAA also identified an error in the proposed Canadian RNAV Route T– 810 description in the proposed regulatory text of the NPRM. The CATGA, MI, Waypoint (WP) listed in the T–810 description incorrectly listed the latitude geographic coordinate for the WP as ‘‘lat. 46°28′11.51″ N.’’ The correct latitude coordinate information for the CATGA WP is ‘‘lat. 46°28′11.52″ N’’ This action corrects the CATGA WP latitude geographic coordinate listed in the Canadian RNAV Route T–810 description in this final rule. Additionally, subsequent publication of the NPRM, the FAA published a NPRM for Docket No. FAA–2023–2493 in the Federal Register (89 FR 1851; January 11, 2024), that also proposed to establish two Canadian RNAV Route T– 765 segments in U.S. airspace due to NAV CANADA’s planned decommissioning of the Winnipeg, Manitoba (MB), Canada, VOR/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) NAVAID. No substantive comments to that NPRM were received. The T–765 route segments in that action were to mitigate the removal of the VOR Federal Airway V–161 segments affected by the Winnipeg VORTAC decommissioning and to provide route continuity and cross border connectivity with the T– 765 route segments being established by NAV CANADA within Canadian airspace. The FAA has decided to establish all of the proposed Canadian RNAV Route T–765 segments in a single docket action and selected Docket No. FAA–2023–2326 to accomplish that. Therefore, the T–765 route segment actions proposed in Docket No. FAA– 2023–2493 have been removed from that docket and are included in this final rule. Finally, prior to the NPRM, the FAA published a rule for Docket No. FAA– 2023–0501 in the Federal Register (88 FR 30896; May 15, 2023), amending RNAV Route T–331 by renaming the Squaw Valley, CA, VOR/DME route point to become the Palisades, CA, VOR/DME. That editorial amendment, effective August 10, 2023, did not affect the T–331 route alignment or structure. In the NPRM for this action, the T–331 Palisades, CA, VOR/DME route point was incorrectly listed as the Squaw Valley, CA, VOR/DME. This rule corrects that error by listing the affected T–331 route point as the Palisades VOR/ DME. Incorporation by Reference Jet Routes are published in paragraph 2004, Canadian Area Navigation Routes (Q-routes) are published in paragraph 2007, VOR Federal Airways are published in paragraph 6010(a), United E:\FR\FM\18JNR1.SGM 18JNR1 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 118 / Tuesday, June 18, 2024 / Rules and Regulations lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with RULES1 States Area Navigation Routes (T-routes) are published in paragraph 6011, and Canadian Area Navigation Routes (Troutes) are published in paragraph 6013 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 amending VOR Federal Airways V–13, V–133, and V–300, and United States RNAV Route T–331; establishing Canadian RNAV Routes Q–924, T–765, T–776, and T–810 in U.S. airspace; and revoking Jet Route J–533 and VOR Federal Airway V–348. This action is being taken due to the planned decommissioning of the Thunder Bay, ON, Canada, VOR by NAV CANADA in support of their NAVAID Modernization Program. The ATS route actions are described below. J–533: Prior to this final rule, J–533 extended between the Duluth, MN, VORTAC and the U.S./Canada border via the Duluth to Thunder Bay, ON, direct radial. The Jet Route is removed in its entirety. Q–924: Q–924 is a new Canadian RNAV route established within U.S. airspace extending between the Duluth, MN, VORTAC and the BEKRR, MI, WP that replaces the ‘‘MPCEG’’ Computer Navigation Fix (CNF) on the U.S./ Canada border. The new RNAV route mitigates the J–533 revocation and provides route continuity and crossborder connectivity with the Q–924 route segment being established by NAV CANADA within Canadian airspace. V–13: Prior to this final rule, V–13 extended between the Mc Allen, TX, VOR/DME and the Razorback, AR, VORTAC; between the Butler, MO, VORTAC and the Farmington, MN, VORTAC; and between the Duluth, MN, VORTAC and the Thunder Bay, ON, Canada, VOR/DME, excluding the airspace outside the United States. The airway segment between the Duluth VORTAC and the Thunder Bay VOR/ DME is removed. As amended, the airway is changed to now extend between the Mc Allen VOR/DME and the Razorback VORTAC, and between VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:05 Jun 17, 2024 Jkt 262001 the Butler VORTAC and the Farmington VORTAC. V–133: Prior to this final rule, V–133 extended between the intersection of the Charlotte, NC, VOR/DME 305° and Barretts Mountain, NC, VOR/DME 197° radials (LINCO Fix) and the Zanesville, OH, VOR/DME; and between the Saginaw, MI, VOR/DME and the Red Lake, ON, Canada, VOR, excluding the airspace within Canada. The airway segment between the Houghton, MI, VOR/DME and the International Falls, MN, VOR/DME is removed. As amended, the airway is changed to now extend between the Charlotte VOR/DME 305° and Barretts Mountain VOR/DME 197° radials (LINCO Fix) and the Zanesville VOR/DME, between the Saginaw VOR/DME and the Houghton VOR/DME, and between the International Falls VOR/DME and the Red Lake, ON, VOR. The airspace within Canada continues to be excluded. V–300: Prior to this final rule, V–300 extended between the Victoria, British Columbia (BC), Canada, VOR/DME and the Vancouver, BC, Canada, VOR/DME; between the Thunder Bay, ON, Canada, VOR/DME and the Wiarton, ON, Canada, VOR/DME; and between the Sherbrooke, Quebec (PQ), Canada, VOR and the Fredericton, New Brunswick (NB), Canada, VORTAC, excluding the airspace within Canada. The airway segment between the Thunder Bay VOR/DME and the Sault Ste Marie, MI, VOR/DME is removed. Additionally, the airway segment between the Victoria VOR/DME and the Vancouver VOR/ DME is removed to match the airway segment removal action NAV CANADA took and was effective November 30, 2023. Finally, the airway segment between the Sherbrooke VOR and the Fredericton VORTAC is removed due to NAV CANADA’s actions removing the segments west and east of the portion of the airway segment within U.S. airspace and the previously existing cross-border connectivity no longer provided. As amended, the airway is changed to now extend between the Sault Ste Marie VOR/DME and the Wiarton, ON, VOR/ DME. The airspace within Canada continues to be excluded. V–348: Prior to this final rule, V–348 extended between the Thunder Bay, ON, Canada VOR/DME and the Sudbury, ON, Canada VOR, excluding the airspace within Canada. The airway segment between the Thunder Bay VOR/DME and the Sault Ste Marie, MI, VOR/DME is removed due to the planned decommissioning of the Thunder Bay VOR. Additionally, the airway segment between the Sault Ste Marie VOR/DME and the Sudbury VOR PO 00000 Frm 00017 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 51411 is removed due to the Sudbury VOR having been decommissioned by NAV CANADA in 2021. The airway is removed in its entirety. T–331: Prior to this final rule, T–331 extended between the FRAME, CA, Fix and the MECNU, MN, Fix. The route is extended northward to the BEKRR, MN, WP that replaces the ‘‘CFGDB’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border and the MECNU Fix route point is removed from the route description. The MECNU Fix will remain charted and appear to be on the route but will not be listed as a route point in the part 71 route description. As amended, the route is changed to now extend between the FRAME Fix and the BEKRR WP and provides mitigation for the V–13 airway segment removal. T–765: T–765 is a new Canadian RNAV route established within U.S. airspace extending between the Houghton, MI, VOR/DME and the BBLUE, MI, WP that replaces the ‘‘KJDRS’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border; between the ASIXX, MN, WP that replaces the ‘‘KJDPL’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border and the KORTY, MN, WP that replaces the ‘‘CFFQV’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border, via the International Falls, MN, VOR/DME; and between the LCROS, MN, WP that replaces the ‘‘CFXDP’’ CNF on the U.S./ Canada border and the CALDU, MN, WP that replaces the ‘‘CFZMG’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border. The new RNAV route mitigates the V–133 airway segment removal due to the Thunder Bay VOR being decommissioned and the V–161 airway segment removal due to the Winnipeg, MB, Canada VORTAC being decommissioned as discussed in the Differences from the NPRM section. The new RNAV Route, T–765, segments in U.S. airspace provide route continuity and cross-border connectivity with the T–765 route segments being established by NAV CANADA within Canadian airspace. T–776: T–776 is a new Canadian RNAV route established within U.S. airspace extending between the KAYCY, MI, WP that replaces the ‘‘CFZSV’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border and the KMNGO, MI, WP that replaces the ‘‘CFXKN’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border; between the NCOLY, MI, WP that replaces the ‘‘CWSKQ’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border and the RRBEE, MI, WP that replaces the ‘‘KJSCR’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border; and between the SKOWT, MI, WP that replaces the ‘‘KJSTL’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border and the Sault Ste Marie, MI, VOR/DME. The new RNAV route mitigates the V–348 revocation and provides route continuity and crossborder connectivity with the T–776 E:\FR\FM\18JNR1.SGM 18JNR1 51412 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 118 / Tuesday, June 18, 2024 / Rules and Regulations route segments being established by NAV CANADA within Canadian airspace. T–810: T–810 is a new Canadian RNAV route established within U.S. airspace extending between the BERDD, MI, WP that replaces the ‘‘KJNGG’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border and the JEORG, MI, WP that replaces the ‘‘CFKJR’’ CNF on the U.S./Canada border; and between the CATGA, MI, WP that replaces the CATGA, MI, Fix on the U.S./Canada border and the Sault Ste Marie, MI, VOR/DME. The new RNAV route mitigates the V–300 airway segment removal and provides route continuity and cross-border connectivity with the T–810 route segments being established by NAV CANADA within Canadian airspace. The NAVAID radials listed in the VOR Federal airway descriptions in the regulatory text of this final rule are unchanged and stated in degrees True north. 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 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 impact 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. 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. The FAA has determined that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment or environmental impact study.

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 National Airspace System.

History

    The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking for Docket No. 
FAA-2023-2326 in the Federal Register (88 FR 85519; December 8, 2023), 
proposing to amend VOR Federal Airways V-13, V-133, and V-300, and RNAV 
Route T-331; establish Canadian RNAV Routes Q-924, T-765, T-776, and T-
810 in U.S. airspace; and revoke Jet Route J-533 and VOR Federal Airway 
V-348 due to the planned decommissioning of the Thunder Bay, ON, 
Canada, VOR NAVAID. Interested parties were invited to participate in 
this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal. 
No comments were received.

Differences From the NPRM

    After publishing the NPRM in the Federal Register, the FAA 
identified an error in the V-300 proposed amendment discussed in The 
Proposal section of the preamble. In the paragraph addressing V-300 
amendments, it stated the FAA proposed to remove the airway segment 
between the Victoria VOR/Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME) and the 
Vancouver VOR/DME to match the airway segment removal action NAV CANADA 
is taking. However, at the end of the paragraph, it stated that as 
amended, the airway would be changed to extend between the Victoria 
VOR/DME and the Vancouver VOR/DME, in error. This action removes the V-
300 airway segment between the Victoria VOR/DME and the Vancouver VOR/
DME as it was published in the proposed regulatory text of the NPRM and 
is corrected in this final rule.
    The FAA also identified an error in the proposed Canadian RNAV 
Route T-810 description in the proposed regulatory text of the NPRM. 
The CATGA, MI, Waypoint (WP) listed in the T-810 description 
incorrectly listed the latitude geographic coordinate for the WP as 
``lat. 46[deg]28'11.51'' N.'' The correct latitude coordinate 
information for the CATGA WP is ``lat. 46[deg]28'11.52'' N'' This 
action corrects the CATGA WP latitude geographic coordinate listed in 
the Canadian RNAV Route T-810 description in this final rule.
    Additionally, subsequent publication of the NPRM, the FAA published 
a NPRM for Docket No. FAA-2023-2493 in the Federal Register (89 FR 
1851; January 11, 2024), that also proposed to establish two Canadian 
RNAV Route T-765 segments in U.S. airspace due to NAV CANADA's planned 
decommissioning of the Winnipeg, Manitoba (MB), Canada, VOR/Tactical 
Air Navigation (VORTAC) NAVAID. No substantive comments to that NPRM 
were received. The T-765 route segments in that action were to mitigate 
the removal of the VOR Federal Airway V-161 segments affected by the 
Winnipeg VORTAC decommissioning and to provide route continuity and 
cross border connectivity with the T-765 route segments being 
established by NAV CANADA within Canadian airspace. The FAA has decided 
to establish all of the proposed Canadian RNAV Route T-765 segments in 
a single docket action and selected Docket No. FAA-2023-2326 to 
accomplish that. Therefore, the T-765 route segment actions proposed in 
Docket No. FAA-2023-2493 have been removed from that docket and are 
included in this final rule.
    Finally, prior to the NPRM, the FAA published a rule for Docket No. 
FAA-2023-0501 in the Federal Register (88 FR 30896; May 15, 2023), 
amending RNAV Route T-331 by renaming the Squaw Valley, CA, VOR/DME 
route point to become the Palisades, CA, VOR/DME. That editorial 
amendment, effective August 10, 2023, did not affect the T-331 route 
alignment or structure. In the NPRM for this action, the T-331 
Palisades, CA, VOR/DME route point was incorrectly listed as the Squaw 
Valley, CA, VOR/DME. This rule corrects that error by listing the 
affected T-331 route point as the Palisades VOR/DME.

Incorporation by Reference

    Jet Routes are published in paragraph 2004, Canadian Area 
Navigation Routes (Q-routes) are published in paragraph 2007, VOR

The Rule

    This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by amending VOR Federal Airways 
V-13, V-133, and V-300, and United States RNAV Route T-331; 
establishing Canadian RNAV Routes Q-924, T-765, T-776, and T-810 in 
U.S. airspace; and revoking Jet Route J-533 and VOR Federal Airway V-
348. This action is being taken due to the planned decommissioning of 
the Thunder Bay, ON, Canada, VOR by NAV CANADA in support of their 
NAVAID Modernization Program. The ATS route actions are described 
below.
    J-533: Prior to this final rule, J-533 extended between the Duluth, 
MN, VORTAC and the U.S./Canada border via the Duluth to Thunder Bay, 
ON, direct radial. The Jet Route is removed in its entirety.
    Q-924: Q-924 is a new Canadian RNAV route established within U.S. 
airspace extending between the Duluth, MN, VORTAC and the BEKRR, MI, WP 
that replaces the ``MPCEG'' Computer Navigation Fix (CNF) on the U.S./
Canada border. The new RNAV route mitigates the J-533 revocation and 
provides route continuity and cross-border connectivity with the Q-924 
route segment being established by NAV CANADA within Canadian airspace.
    V-13: Prior to this final rule, V-13 extended between the Mc Allen, 
TX, VOR/DME and the Razorback, AR, VORTAC; between the Butler, MO, 
VORTAC and the Farmington, MN, VORTAC; and between the Duluth, MN, 
VORTAC and the Thunder Bay, ON, Canada, VOR/DME, excluding the airspace 
outside the United States. The airway segment between the Duluth VORTAC 
and the Thunder Bay VOR/DME is removed. As amended, the airway is 
changed to now extend between the Mc Allen VOR/DME and the Razorback 
VORTAC, and between the Butler VORTAC and the Farmington VORTAC.
    V-133: Prior to this final rule, V-133 extended between the 
intersection of the Charlotte, NC, VOR/DME 305[deg] and Barretts 
Mountain, NC, VOR/DME 197[deg] radials (LINCO Fix) and the Zanesville, 
OH, VOR/DME; and between the Saginaw, MI, VOR/DME and the Red Lake, ON, 
Canada, VOR, excluding the airspace within Canada. The airway segment 
between the Houghton, MI, VOR/DME and the International Falls, MN, VOR/
DME is removed. As amended, the airway is changed to now extend between 
the Charlotte VOR/DME 305[deg] and Barretts Mountain VOR/DME 197[deg] 
radials (LINCO Fix) and the Zanesville VOR/DME, between the Saginaw 
VOR/DME and the Houghton VOR/DME, and between the International Falls 
VOR/DME and the Red Lake, ON, VOR. The airspace within Canada continues 
to be excluded.
    V-300: Prior to this final rule, V-300 extended between the 
Victoria, British Columbia (BC), Canada, VOR/DME and the Vancouver, BC, 
Canada, VOR/DME; between the Thunder Bay, ON, Canada, VOR/DME and the 
Wiarton, ON, Canada, VOR/DME; and between the Sherbrooke, Quebec (PQ), 
Canada, VOR and the Fredericton, New Brunswick (NB), Canada, VORTAC, 
excluding the airspace within Canada. The airway segment between the 
Thunder Bay VOR/DME and the Sault Ste Marie, MI, VOR/DME is removed. 
Additionally, the airway segment between the Victoria VOR/DME and the 
Vancouver VOR/DME is removed to match the airway segment removal action 
NAV CANADA took and was effective November 30, 2023. Finally, the 
airway segment between the Sherbrooke VOR and the Fredericton VORTAC is 
removed due to NAV CANADA's actions removing the segments west and east 
of the portion of the airway segment within U.S. airspace and the 
previously existing cross-border connectivity no longer provided. As 
amended, the airway is changed to now extend between the Sault Ste 
Marie VOR/DME and the Wiarton, ON, VOR/DME. The airspace within Canada 
continues to be excluded.
    V-348: Prior to this final rule, V-348 extended between the Thunder 
Bay, ON, Canada VOR/DME and the Sudbury, ON, Canada VOR, excluding the 
airspace within Canada. The airway segment between the Thunder Bay VOR/
DME and the Sault Ste Marie, MI, VOR/DME is removed due to the planned 
decommissioning of the Thunder Bay VOR. Additionally, the airway 
segment between the Sault Ste Marie VOR/DME and the Sudbury VOR is 
removed due to the Sudbury VOR having been decommissioned by NAV CANADA 
in 2021. The airway is removed in its entirety.
    T-331: Prior to this final rule, T-331 extended between the FRAME, 
CA, Fix and the MECNU, MN, Fix. The route is extended northward to the 
BEKRR, MN, WP that replaces the ``CFGDB'' CNF on the U.S./Canada border 
and the MECNU Fix route point is removed from the route description. 
The MECNU Fix will remain charted and appear to be on the route but 
will not be listed as a route point in the part 71 route description. 
As amended, the route is changed to now extend between the FRAME Fix 
and the BEKRR WP and provides mitigation for the V-13 airway segment 
removal.
    T-765: T-765 is a new Canadian RNAV route established within U.S. 
airspace extending between the Houghton, MI, VOR/DME and the BBLUE, MI, 
WP that replaces the ``KJDRS'' CNF on the U.S./Canada border; between 
the ASIXX, MN, WP that replaces the ``KJDPL'' CNF on the U.S./Canada 
border and the KORTY, MN, WP that replaces the ``CFFQV'' CNF on the 
U.S./Canada border, via the International Falls, MN, VOR/DME; and 
between the LCROS, MN, WP that replaces the ``CFXDP'' CNF on the U.S./
Canada border and the CALDU, MN, WP that replaces the ``CFZMG'' CNF on 
the U.S./Canada border. The new RNAV route mitigates the V-133 airway 
segment removal due to the Thunder Bay VOR being decommissioned and the 
V-161 airway segment removal due to the Winnipeg, MB, Canada VORTAC 
being decommissioned as discussed in the Differences from the NPRM 
section. The new RNAV Route, T-765, segments in U.S. airspace provide 
route continuity and cross-border connectivity with the T-765 route 
segments being established by NAV CANADA within Canadian airspace.
    T-776: T-776 is a new Canadian RNAV route established within U.S. 
airspace extending between the KAYCY, MI, WP that replaces the 
``CFZSV'' CNF on the U.S./Canada border and the KMNGO, MI, WP that 
replaces the ``CFXKN'' CNF on the U.S./Canada border; between the 
NCOLY, MI, WP that replaces the ``CWSKQ'' CNF on the U.S./Canada border 
and the RRBEE, MI, WP that replaces the ``KJSCR'' CNF on the U.S./
Canada border; and between the SKOWT, MI, WP that replaces the 
``KJSTL'' CNF on the U.S./Canada border and the Sault Ste Marie, MI, 
VOR/DME. The new RNAV route mitigates the V-348 revocation and provides 
route continuity and cross-border connectivity with the T-776

[[Page 51412]]

route segments being established by NAV CANADA within Canadian 
airspace.
    T-810: T-810 is a new Canadian RNAV route established within U.S. 
airspace extending between the BERDD, MI, WP that replaces the 
``KJNGG'' CNF on the U.S./Canada border and the JEORG, MI, WP that 
replaces the ``CFKJR'' CNF on the U.S./Canada border; and between the 
CATGA, MI, WP that replaces the CATGA, MI, Fix on the U.S./Canada 
border and the Sault Ste Marie, MI, VOR/DME. The new RNAV route 
mitigates the V-300 airway segment removal and provides route 
continuity and cross-border connectivity with the T-810 route segments 
being established by NAV CANADA within Canadian airspace.
    The NAVAID radials listed in the VOR Federal airway descriptions in 
the regulatory text of this final rule are unchanged and stated in 
degrees True north.

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