SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Reason for Withdrawal 

The FAA published a NPRM on 

December 22, 2022 (87 FR 78616), 

Docket No. FAA–2022–1673, to amend 

14 CFR 71 by establishing Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Paoli Municipal 

Airport, Paoli, IN, to support instrument 

flight rule operations at this airport. 

Subsequent to publication, the FAA was 

notified that the airport has withdrawn 

its request to develop public instrument 

flight procedures at this airport which 

necessitated the Class E airspace. 

Conclusion 

The FAA determined that the NPRM 

published on December 22, 2022 (87 FR 

78616), is unnecessary. Therefore, the 

FAA withdraws that NPRM.

Incorporation by Reference 

VOR Federal airways are published in 

paragraph 6010(a) and United States 

Area Navigation Routes (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 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 

The FAA is planning to 

decommission the Cincinnati, KY, VOR 

in May 2024. The Cincinnati VOR was 

one of the candidate VORs identified for 

discontinuance by the FAA’s VOR MON 

program and listed in the final policy 

statement notice, ‘‘Provision of 

Navigation Services for the Next 

Generation Air Transportation System 

(NextGen) Transition to PerformanceBased Navigation (PBN) (Plan for 

Establishing a VOR Minimum 

Operational Network),’’ published in the 

Federal Register on July 26, 2016 (81 FR 

48694), Docket No. FAA–2011–1082. 

Although the VOR portion of the 

Cincinnati, KY, VORTAC is planned for 

decommissioning, the co-located 

Tactical Air Navigation (TACAN) 

portion of the NAVAID is being retained 

to provide navigational service for 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with PROPOSALS1
77240 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 216 / Thursday, November 9, 2023 / Proposed Rules 

military operations and Distance 

Measuring Equipment (DME) service in 

support of current and future NextGen 

PBN flight procedure requirements. 

The VOR Federal airways affected by 

the Cincinnati VOR decommissioning 

are V–5, V–19, V–47, V–97, V–128, V– 

275, and V–517. With the planned 

decommissioning of the Cincinnati 

VOR, the remaining ground-based 

NAVAID coverage in the area is 

insufficient to enable the continuity of 

the affected airways. As such, proposed 

modifications to V–5, V–47, V–128, V– 

275, and V–517 would result in the 

airways being shortened; to V–97 would 

result in an existing gap in the airway 

being expanded; and to V–19 would 

result in the airway being revoked. 

To address the proposed 

modifications to the affected VOR 

Federal airways, instrument flight rules 

(IFR) pilots operating aircraft equipped 

with RNAV capabilities could use 

RNAV routes T–213, T–215, and T–217 

or navigate point-to-point using the 

existing fixes and waypoints (WP) that 

will remain in place to support 

continued operations though the 

affected area. IFR pilots operating 

aircraft not equipped with RNAV 

capabilities may request air traffic 

control (ATC) radar vectors to fly 

through or around the affected area. 

Additionally, visual flight rules pilots 

who elect to navigate via the affected 

Air Traffic Service (ATS) routes may 

also take advantage of the ATC services 

listed previously. 

Additionally, the FAA proposes to 

modify United States RNAV route T– 

315 to further mitigate the proposed 

modifications to the affected airways. 

The route would be extended westward 

to mitigate the proposed removal of the 

affected V–128 airway segment. The 

extended T–315 would provide pilots 

with RNAV-equipped aircraft a route 

alternative through the affected area, 

reduce ATC sector workload and 

complexity, reduce pilot-to-controller 

communications, and support the FAA’s 

continued NextGen efforts to modernize 

the NAS from a ground-based system to 

a satellite-based system. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing to amend 14 

CFR part 71 to amend VOR Federal 

airways V–5, V–47, V–97, V–128, V– 

275, and V–517, and United States 

RNAV route T–315, and to revoke VOR 

Federal airway V–19 due to the planned 

decommissioning of the VOR portion of 

the Cincinnati, KY, VORTAC. The 

proposed ATS route actions are 

described below. 

V–5: V–5 currently extends between 

the Pecan, GA, VOR/DME and the 

Athens, GA, VOR/DME and between the 

New Hope, KY, VOR/DME and the 

Appleton, OH, VORTAC. The FAA 

proposes to remove the airway segment 

between the Louisville, KY, VORTAC 

and the Appleton VORTAC due to the 

planned decommissioning of the VOR 

portion of the Cincinnati VORTAC. 

Additionally, the FAA proposes to also 

remove the airway segment between the 

New Hope, KY, VOR/DME and the 

Louisville, KY, VORTAC due to that 

airway segment overlapping V–513 

which will remain charted and provide 

navigational guidance between the two 

NAVAIDs. As amended, the airway 

would be changed to extend between 

the Pecan VOR/DME and the Athens 

VOR/DME. 

V–19: V–19 currently extends 

between the Cincinnati, KY (reflected as 

OH in the current description), VOR/ 

DME and the Appleton, OH, VORTAC. 

The FAA proposes to revoke the airway 

in its entirety. 

V–47: V–47 currently extends 

between the Cunningham, KY, VOR/ 

DME and the Pocket City, IN, VORTAC 

and between the Cincinnati, KY, 

VORTAC and the Flag City, OH, 

VORTAC. The FAA proposes to remove 

the airway segment between the 

Cincinnati VORTAC and the Rosewood, 

OH, VORTAC due to the planned 

decommissioning of the VOR portion of 

the Cincinnati VORTAC. Additionally, 

the FAA proposes to also remove the 

airway segment between the 

Cunningham VOR/DME and the Pocket 

City VORTAC due to that airway 

segment overlapping both V–11 and V– 

305 that will remain charted and 

provide navigational guidance between 

the two NAVAIDs. As amended, the 

airway would be changed to extend 

between the Rosewood VORTAC and 

the Flag City VORTAC. 

V–97: V–97 currently extends 

between the Dolphin, FL, VORTAC and 

the intersection of the Pecan, GA, VOR/ 

DME 357° and Vienna, GA, VORTAC 

300° radials (PRATZ Fix); between the 

intersection of the Rome, GA, VORTAC 

060° and Volunteer, TN, VORTAC 197° 

radials (NELLO Fix) and the intersection 

of the Chicago Heights, IL, VORTAC 

358° and DuPage, IL, VOR/DME 101° 

radials (NILES Fix); and between the 

Nodine, MN, VORTAC and the Gopher, 

MN, VORTAC. The airspace below 

2,000 feet mean sea level (MSL) outside 

the United States is excluded. The FAA 

proposes to remove the airway segment 

between the Lexington, KY, VOR/DME 

and the Shelbyville, IN, VOR/DME due 

to the planned decommissioning of the 

VOR portion of the Cincinnati VORTAC. 

Additionally, the FAA proposes to also 

remove the airway segment between the 

Shelbyville VOR/DME and the Chicago 

Heights VORTAC due to that airway 

segment overlapping V–51 that will 

remain charted and provide 

navigational guidance between the two 

NAVAIDs. Lastly, the FAA proposes to 

also remove the airway segment 

between the Chicago Heights VORTAC 

and the intersection of the Chicago 

Heights VORTAC 358° and DuPage 

VOR/DME 101° radials (NILES Fix) due 

to that airway segment overlapping V– 

7 that will remain charted and provide 

navigational guidance between the 

Chicago Heights VORTAC and the 

NILES Fix. As amended, the airway 

would be changed to extend between 

the Dolphin VORTAC and the Lexington 

VOR/DME and between the Nodine 

VORTAC and the Gopher VORTAC. 

V–128: V–128 currently extends 

between the Brickyard, IN, VORTAC 

and the Casanova, VA, VORTAC. The 

FAA proposes to remove the airway 

segment between the Brickyard 

VORTAC and the York, KY, VORTAC. 

As amended, the airway would be 

changed to extend between the York 

VORTAC and the Casanova VORTAC. 

Additional airway changes have been 

proposed in a separate NPRM action. 

V–275: V–275 currently extends 

between the Cincinnati, KY, VORTAC 

and the intersection of the Dayton, OH, 

VOR/DME 007° and Flag City, OH, 

VORTAC 313° radials (KLOEE Fix). The 

FAA proposes to remove the airway 

segment between the Cincinnati 

VORTAC and the Dayton VOR/DME. As 

amended, the airway would be changed 

to extend between the Dayton VOR/ 

DME and the intersection of the Dayton 

VOR/DME 007° and Flag City VORTAC 

313° radials (KLOEE Fix). 

V–517: V–517 currently extends 

between the Snowbird, TN, VORTAC 

and the Cincinnati, KY, VORTAC. The 

FAA proposes to remove the airway 

segment between the Falmouth, KY, 

VOR/DME and the Cincinnati VORTAC. 

As amended, the airway would be 

changed to extend between the 

Snowbird VORTAC and the Falmouth 

VOR/DME. 

T–315: T–315 currently extends 

between the JARLO, WV, WP and the 

Burlington, VT, VORTAC. The FAA 

proposes to extend the route westward 

from the JARLO WP to the Brickyard, 

IN, VORTAC. The route extension 

would include the ILILE, OH, Fix that 

would be converted to a WP prior to the 

planned decommissioning of the 

Cincinnati VOR. As amended, T–315 

would be changed to extend between 

the Brickyard, IN, VORTAC and the 

Burlington, VT, VORTAC and provide 

mitigation for the proposed V–128 

airway segment removal. Additional 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with PROPOSALS1
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 216 / Thursday, November 9, 2023 / Proposed Rules 77241 

route changes have been proposed in a 

separate NPRM action. The full T–315 

route description is listed in the 

amendments to part 71 as set forth 

below. 

The NAVAID radials listed in the 

VOR Federal airway descriptions in The 

Proposed Amendment section below are 

unchanged and stated in degrees True 

north. 

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 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.

Coast Guard 

33 CFR Part 165 

[Docket Number USCG–2023–0803] 

RIN 1625–AA11 

Security Zone; Coast Guard Sector 

Key West, Trumbo Point Annex, Key 

West Harbor, Key West, FL 

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is proposing 

to establish a security zone for certain 

waters of the Key West Harbor 

surrounding the Coast Guard Sector Key 

West on Trumbo Point Annex. This 

action is necessary to safeguard Coast 

Guard assets in the interest of national 

security. This proposed rulemaking 

would prohibit persons and vessels 

from being in the security zone unless 

authorized by the Captain of the Port 

Key West or a designated representative. 

We invite your comments on this 

proposed rulemaking. 

DATES: Comments and related material 

must be received by the Coast Guard on 

or before December 11, 2023. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments 

identified by docket number USCG– 

2023–0803 using the Federal DecisionMaking Portal at https://

www.regulations.gov. See the ‘‘Public 

Participation and Request for 

Comments’’ portion of the 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for 

further instructions on submitting 

comments. This notice of proposed 

rulemaking with its plain-language, 100- 

word-or-less proposed rule summary 

will be available in this same docket. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If 

you have questions about this proposed 

rulemaking, call or email Lieutenant 

Hailye Wilson, Waterways Management 

Division, U.S. Coast Guard; telephone

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

CFR Code of Federal Regulations 

DHS Department of Homeland Security 

FR Federal Register 

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking 

§ Section 

U.S.C. United States Code 

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal 

Basis 

The Coast Guard Sector Key West, FL 

and its assets are on property previously 

under the control of the Naval Air 

Station (NAS) Key West, FL. The 

current regulations restricting vessel 

traffic in and around NAS Key West are 

found in 33 CFR 334.610 and are only 

enforceable by the Commanding Officer 

of NAS Key West, and certain 

designated agencies. Currently, the 

Coast Guard requires the authority from 

the Commanding Officer, NAS Key 

West, before they can enforce a security 

zone in and around Coast Guard 

property and assets. This additional step 

can generate unnecessary delays, which 

creates security concerns for the Coast 

Guard and potential hazards to the 

public. The Captain of the Port Key 

West (COTP) has determined that 

permanent security zone is in the 

interest of national security, the safety 

of life, and the prevention of damage to 

property. 

The purpose of this rulemaking is to 

ensure the security of vessels, 

waterfront facilities, and personnel 

located at the Coast Guard, Sector Key 

West. The Coast Guard is proposing this 

rulemaking under authority in 46 U.S.C. 

70051 and 70124. 

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule 

The COTP is proposing to establish a 

permanent security zone surrounding 

the Coast Guard Sector Key West, 

located adjacent to Trumbo Point 

Annex, Naval Air Station Key West. The 

security zone would cover all navigable 

waters within 100 yards of the Coast 

Guard Sector Key West. No vessel, other 

than Government-owned vessels and 

specifically authorized private craft, or 

persons would be permitted to stop or 

land in the security zone. The regulatory 

text we are proposing appears at the end 

of this document. 

IV. Regulatory Analyses 

We developed this proposed rule after 

considering numerous statutes and 

Executive orders related to rulemaking. 

Below we summarize our analyses 

based on a number of these statutes and 

Executive orders, and we discuss First 

Amendment rights of protestors. 

A. Regulatory Planning and Review 

Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 

direct agencies to assess the costs and 

benefits of available regulatory 

alternatives and, if regulation is 

necessary, to select regulatory 

approaches that maximize net benefits. 

This NPRM has not been designated a 

‘‘significant regulatory action,’’ under 

section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, as 

amended by Executive Order 14094 

(Modernizing Regulatory Review). 

Accordingly, the NPRM has not been 

reviewed by the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB). 

This regulatory action determination 

is based on the fact that the area covered 

by the permanent security zone created 

by this rulemaking is already a regulated 

restricted area as contained in 33 CFR 

334.610. Unauthorized vessels and 

persons have not been allowed to stop 

and land within 100 yards of the Coast 

Guard base on Trumbo Point Annex 

through the regulation in § 334.610. 

This rulemaking allows the Coast Guard 

to enforce the restricted area through a 

security zone. Additionally, the security 

zone only extends 100 yards from the 

Coast Guard Sector Key West, located 

adjacent to Trumbo Point Annex, Naval 

Air Station Key West and does not 

impede any regular vessel traffic (i.e., 

cruise ships, ferries, small passenger 

vessels, etc.). Vessels will be able to 

transit safely around the zone. 

B. Impact on Small Entities 

The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 

1980, 5 U.S.C. 601–612, as amended, 

requires Federal agencies to consider 

the potential impact of regulations on 

small entities during rulemaking. The 

term ‘‘small entities’’ comprises small 

businesses, not-for-profit organizations 

that are independently owned and 

operated and are not dominant in their 

fields, and governmental jurisdictions 

with populations of less than 50,000. 

The Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 

605(b) that this proposed rule would not 

have a significant economic impact on 

a substantial number of small entities. 

For the reasons stated in section IV.A 

above, this proposed rule would not 

have a significant economic impact on 

any vessel owner or operator. 

If you think that your business, 

organization, or governmental 

jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity 

and that this proposed rule would have 

a significant economic impact on it, 

please submit a comment (see 

ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it 

qualifies and how and to what degree 

this rulemaking would economically 

affect it. 

Under section 213(a) of the Small 

Business Regulatory Enforcement 

Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–121), 

we want to assist small entities in 

understanding this proposed rule. If the 

proposed rule would affect your small 

business, organization, or governmental
