Airspace System (NAS). 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before January 24, 2011. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments on the 

proposal to the U.S. Department of

Persons interested in being placed on

contact the FAA’s Office of Rulemaking, 

(202) 267–9677, for a copy of Advisory 

Circular No. 11–2A, Notice of Proposed 

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 six RNAV 

Q-routes in the Western United States. 

The RNAV routes described in this 

NPRM would enhance safety, and 

facilitate more flexible and efficient use 

of the navigable airspace for en route 

Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations 

within the NAS. Specifically, these 

proposed routes would be designed to 

improve arrival flow from the Denver, 

CO, Terminal area to the San Francisco/ 

Oakland, CA, Terminal area and 

improve arrival flow from and through 

Salt Lake ARTCC to the San Francisco/ 

Oakland, CA, Terminal area. 

High Altitude RNAV Routes are 

published in paragraph 2006 in FAA 

Order 7400.9U, Airspace Designations 

and Reporting Points, dated August 18, 

2010, and effective September 15, 2010, 

which is incorporated by reference in 14 

CFR 71.1. The airspace designations 

listed in this document would be 

published subsequently 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 proposes to establish RNAV routes in 

the Western United States. 

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.

Export Control Modernization: 

Strategic Trade Authorization License 

Exception 

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and 

Security, Commerce. 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: This proposed rule would add 

a new license exception to the Export 

Administration Regulations (EAR). The 

exception would allow exports, 

reexports and transfers (in-country) of 

specified items to destinations that pose 

little risk of unauthorized use of those 

items. To provide assurance against 

diversion to unauthorized destinations, 

transactions under this license 

exception would be subject to 

notification, destination control 

statement and consignee statement 

requirements. This proposed rule is part 

of the Administration’s Export Control 

Reform Initiative undertaken as a result 

of the fundamental review of the U.S. 

export control system announced by the 

President in August 2009. 

DATES: Comments must be received by 

BIS no later than February 7, 2011. 

ADDRESSES: Comments on this rule may 

be submitted to the Federal rulemaking 

portal (http://www.regulations.gov). The
