28630 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 98 / Tuesday, May 22, 2007 / Proposed Rules 

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 1, 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 1, Section 

40103, Sovereignty and use of airspace. 

Under that section, the FAA is charged 

with prescribing regulations to ensure 

the safe and efficient use of the 

navigable airspace. This regulation is 

within the scope of that authority 

because it proposes to create Class E 

airspace sufficient in size to contain 

aircraft executing instrument 

procedures at Ruby Airport and 

represents the FAA’s continuing effort 

to safely and efficiently use the 

navigable airspace.

Proposed Establishment of Low 

Altitude Area Navigation Route T–209;

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: This action proposes to 

establish a low altitude Global 

Positioning System (GPS)/Global 

Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) area 

navigation (RNAV) route, designatedT–

209, in the vicinity of Augusta, GA. The 

FAA is proposing this action to enhance 

the safe and efficient use of the 

navigable airspace. The proposed route 

would reduce air traffic controller 

workload and provide a nonradar route 

that ensures clearance from the Bulldog 

A Military Operations Area (MOA). 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before July 6, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments on this 

proposal to the Docket Management 

System, U.S. Department of 

Transportation, Room Plaza 401, 400

College Park, GA 30337. 

Persons interested in being placed on 

a mailing list for future NPRM’s should 

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 to amend Title 

14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 

part 71 to establish a low altitude RNAV 

route, designated T–209, in the vicinity 

of Augusta, GA. The route would extend 

between the Colliers, SC, very high 

frequency omnidirectional range/ 

tactical air navigation (VORTAC) aid 

and the EHEJO, GA, navigation fix 

(located on Federal airway V–154). T–

209 would provide a more direct route 

for north and southbound traffic and 

would also establish a published route 

that ensures clearance from the Bulldog 

A MOA to assist aircraft navigating 

around the MOA. 

This route would enhance the safe 

and efficient use of the navigable 

airspace for north and southbound IFR 

aircraft in the vicinity of Augusta, GA. 

Low altitude RNAV routes are 

published in paragraph 6011 of FAA 

Order 7400.9P, dated September 1, 2006 

and effective September 15, 2006, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The low altitude RNAV route 

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.
