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 modify 3 Q-routes 

and establish 5 RNAV Q-routes 

originating in the Oakland ARTCC 

airspace. The routes would run 

generally west-east, connecting the San 

Francisco and Los Angeles terminal 

areas with destinations to the east. The 

modified routes would connect to new 

Standard Instrument Departure (SID) 

and Standard Terminal Arrival (STAR) 

procedures as designed in the Northern 

California (NorCal) Metroplex. The 

proposed routes would provide options 

to traverse or circumnavigate the 

restricted area R–2508 complex. The 

proposed routes are described below. 

Q–120: Q–120 extends between the 

Sacramento, CA, VORTAC (SAC) and 

the Redwood Falls, MN, VOR/DME 

(RWF). The proposed modification 

would remove the SAC VORTAC at the 

west end of the route and replace it with 

the new ORRCA waypoint (WP). 

Additional WPs would be added along 

the route. On the east end, the RWF 

VOR/DME would be removed from the 

route and a new endpoint would be 

established using the existing UFFDA 

WP, MN. The UFFDA WP is located 

approximately 41 nautical miles (NM) 

west of the RWF VOR/DME, thereby 

shortening the length of Q–120 by that 

distance. 

Q–128: Q–128 extends between the 

Linden, CA, VORTAC (LIN) and the 

Memphis, TN, VORTAC (MEM). The 

proposed modifications would remove 

the LIN VORTAC from route and 

replaced with the new SYRAH, CA, WP. 

The SYRAH WP would be located 

approximately 7 NM southwest of the 

LIN VORTAC. The Bartlesville, OK, 

VOR/DME (BVO) would be removed 

from the route and replaced with the 

VEGUC, OK, WP (approximately 12 NM 

southeast of the BVO) VOR/DME. The 

Razorback, AR, VORTAC (RZC) would 

also be removed from the route and 

replaced by the NOBBY, AR, WP. The 

NOBBY WP is approximately 1 NM 

northeast of RZC VORTAC. The MEM 

VORTAC would be removed from the 

route and replaced by the MUDHO, MS, 

WP (approximately 7 NM southwest of 

the MEM VORTAC). From the MUDHO 

WP, Q–128 would be extended by 

approximately 160 NM to the southeast 

terminating at the new east end JILLS, 

AL, WP. The JILLS WP would be 

located approximately 11 NM northwest 

of the Crimson, AL, VORTAC (LDK). 

Q130: Q130 extends between the LIN 

VORTAC and the Panhandle, TX, 

VORTAC (PNH). The proposed 

modifications would remove the LIN 

VORTAC from route and replace it with 

the new SYRAH, CA, WP. The 

Rattlesnake, NM, VORTAC (RSK) would 

also be replaced by the new HASSL, UT, 

WP; and the existing TAHIB, UT, WP, 

would be inserted between the ROCCY, 

UT, WP and the DIXAN, NM, WP. The 

PNH VORTAC would remain as the 

eastern endpoint of Q–130. 

The proposed changes to Q–120, Q– 

128, and Q–130 are intended to support 

Performance Based Navigation 

procedures into or out of terminal areas 

and to reduce the reliance on groundbased navigation aids by replacing some 

facilities in the route descriptions with 

GPS waypoints. 

The following new routes are 

proposed: 

Q–158: Q–158 would extend from a 

new NTELL, CA, WP (to be located west 

of restricted area R–2508, near the 

Clovis, CA, VORTAC (CZQ), transiting 

through the northern part of R–2508, 

and the new JEDNA, NV, WP (northwest 

of Las Vegas, NV). 

Q–160: Q–160 would begin at the new 

SHVVR, CA, WP, then transit through 

the northern part of R–2508, and end at 

the existing BIKKR, CA, WP, where it 

would link to Q–158. 

Q–162: Q–162 would extend between 

the NTELL WP and the MYCAL, NV, 

WP. From NTELL, Q–162 would 

circumnavigate around the north end of 

R–2508 through the existing CABAB, 

CA, WP and the KENNO, NV, WP, then 

turn southeastward through the gap 

between restricted areas R–2508 and R– 

4807A/R–4808N, to the MYCAL WP, 

where it would link to Q–158. 

Q–164: Q–164 would extend between 

the NTELL, CA, WP and the existing 

ROCCY, UT, WP. Q–164 would provide 

east- and west-bound routing north of 

the R–2508 and R–4807/R–4808 

complexes. 

Q–166: Q–166 would begin at the 

VIKSN, CA, WP, then transit through 

the northeast corner of R–2508, to end 

at the BIKKR, CA, WP. Q–166 would 

connect with Q–162 at the VIKSN WP 

and with Q–158 and Q–160 at the 

BIKKR WP. 

It should be noted that the proposed 

routes that would transit through R– 

2508 (i.e., Q–158, Q–160 and Q–166) 

would only be available during times 

when the restricted airspace has been 

released to the FAA for joint use in 

accordance with a joint use agreement. 

The FAA is proposing this action to 

promote user operational efficiencies 

and to provide connectivity to current 

and proposed RNAV en route and 

terminal procedures. 

High altitude RNAV routes are 

published in paragraph 2006 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 


ehiers on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 110 / Monday, June 9, 2014 / Proposed Rules 32885 

efficient use of airspace. This proposed 

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 

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.
