Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 221 / Friday, November 15, 2013 / Proposed Rules 68777 

of an Airbus Model A350–900 series 

airplane fuselage skin/structure section 

of sufficient size to assess any tendency 

for fire propagation. The fire threat used 

to represent the realistic ignition source 

in the airplane would consist of a 4′′ x 

4′′ x 9′′ polyurethane foam block and 10 

ml of Heptane. This ignition source 

provides approximately three minutes 

of flame time and would be positioned 

at various points and orientations 

within the mocked up installation to 

impinge on those areas of the fuselage 

considered to be most crucial. 

This fire threat was established based 

on an assessment of a range of potential 

ignition sources, coupled with possible 

contamination of materials. The FAA 

considers this a severe fire threat, 

encompassing a variety of scenarios. 

However, should ignition or fire sources 

of a greater severity be identified, the 

special condition or its method of 

compliance would need to be modified 

in order to take the more severe threat 

into account. 

Applicability 

As discussed above, these proposed 

special conditions apply to Airbus 

Model A350–900 series airplanes. 

Should Airbus apply later for a change 

to the type certificate to include another 

model incorporating the same novel or 

unusual design feature, the proposed 

special conditions would apply to that 

model as well. 

Conclusion 

This action affects only certain novel 

or unusual design features on the Airbus 

Model A350–900 series airplanes. It is 

not a rule of general applicability.

The Proposed Special Condition 

Accordingly, the Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) proposes the 

following special condition as part of 

the type certification basis for Airbus 

Model A350–900 series airplanes. 

Composite Fuselage In-Flight Fire/ 

Flammability Resistance 

In addition to the requirements of 

§ 25.853(a) governing material 

flammability, the following special 

condition applies: 

The Airbus Model A350 composite 

fuselage structure must be shown to be 

resistant to flame propagation under the 

fire threat used to develop § 25.856(a). If 

products of combustion are observed 

beyond the test heat source, they must 

be evaluated and found acceptable.

Rulemaking Distribution System, which 

describes the application procedure. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations 

(14 CFR) part 71 to establish nine low 

altitude RNAV routes (T-routes) in the 

Atlanta, GA area. Since there are no 

published routes currently available for 

aircraft to use to circumnavigate the 

busy Atlanta Metroplex airspace, the 

Atlanta Air Route Traffic Control Center 

(ARTCC) (ZTL) and Atlanta Terminal 

Radar Approach Control (TRACON) 

(A80) facilities routinely vector and 

reroute aircraft around areas where high 

volumes of large aircraft consistently 

fly. This results in increased track miles 

flown and air traffic controller and pilot 

task complexity. The proposed routes 

would support the Atlanta OAPM 

project and provide routes through, 

around and over the Atlanta Metroplex 

area that are procedurally deconflicted 

from arrivals, departures and other 

airspace areas. The following routes are 

proposed: 

T–290: T–290 would provide a route 

through the southern portion of the 

Atlanta Metroplex area from the SCAIL, 

AL, waypoint (WP), near Tallapoosa 

County, AL, to the JACET, GA, WP, near 

Augusta, GA. 

T–292: T–292 would provide a route 

through a portion of the Metroplex to 

the north of Atlanta from the RKMRT, 

GA, WP (near Polk County Airport, GA) 

to the JACET, GA, WP. 

T–293: T–293 is proposed to provide 

a route around the west of the Atlanta 

area from the CHUTT, AL, WP, in 

Alabama (south of Columbus, GA) to the 

DAISI, GA, WP (near Pickens County 

Airport, GA [JZP]). Aligning the route 

segments between the RTLRY, HONRR 

and POLLL waypoints would keep T– 

293 within Atlanta TRACON’s airspace 

and provide vertical and lateral 

separation from three separate 

published arrival procedures used by 

aircraft descending to land at airports 

within the Metroplex area. 

T–294: T–294 would provide an 

alternative RNAV route through the 

Metroplex airspace on the southwest 

side, between the GRANT, GA, WP 

(near Thomaston, GA) and the HEFIN, 

AL, WP (near Heflin, AL). 

T–296: T–296 would provide a route 

southeast of Atlanta between the 

JMPPR, GA, WP (near Woodbury, GA) 

and the TACKL, GA, WP (southwest of 

Athens, GA). 

T–297: T–297 would provide an 

alternative route around the west side of 

the Metroplex airspace between the 

PAIRA, GA, WP (south of Atlanta, near 

Geneva, GA) and the REELL, GA, WP 

(northwest of Athens, GA). The route 

would have altitude limitations so that 

T–297 flights would be procedurally 

separated from all optimized published 

departure and arrival procedures. 

T–319: T–319 would provide an 

RNAV route directly over the HartsfieldJackson Atlanta International Airport 

(ATL) for aircraft transitioning Class B 

airspace from north-to-south and vice 

versa. 

T–321: T–321 would provide a northsouth oriented route east of ATL, 

between the BBOAT, GA, WP (near 

Eatonton, GA) and the BIGNN, GA, WP 

(abeam Habersham County, GA). The 

BBOAT and BIGNN waypoints would 

also connect to T–290 and T–323, 

respectively, enabling more flexibility in 

routing options. 

T–323: The proposed T–323 would 

allow aircraft to transition the 

Metroplex airspace between a point 

approximately 110 NM northeast of ATL 

from the HIGGI, NC, WP and a point 110 

NM southeast of ATL at the CROCS, GA, 

WP. T–323 would intersect the 

proposed T–290 and T–321 enabling 

alternative routing between the 

Knoxville, TN, area and locations south 

of the Atlanta Metroplex area. 

RNAV routes are published in 

paragraph 6011 of FAA Order 7400.9X 

dated August 7, 2013, and effective 

September 15, 2013, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The RNAV routes listed in this 

document would be subsequently 

published in the Order. 

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. 

Therefore, this proposed regulation: (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. 

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 

required to enhance the safe and 

efficient flow of air traffic in the Atlanta, 

GA area. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1E, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures,’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.
