Alteration of Jet Route

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This rule extends Jet Route

231 (J–231) from the St. Johns, AZ, Very

High Frequency Omnidirectional Range/

Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) west

to the Twentynine Palms, CA, VORTAC.

This action enhances air safety,

simplifies routings, and reduces

controller workload.

41266 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 148 / Friday, August 1, 1997 / Rules and Regulations

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On October 11, 1994, the FAA

proposed to amend part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

part 71) to realign J–10 and extend J–231

(59 FR 51394). Interested parties were

invited to participate in this rulemaking

effort by submitting written comments

on the proposal to the FAA. No

comments objecting to the proposal

were received. The J–231 extension is

adopted.

Prior to establishing or altering any

airway, the FAA conducts an in-flight

aeronautical evaluation (flight check) to

ensure that each segment of the

proposed airway meets certain

navigational and safety design criteria.

A flight check of J–10, as proposed,

revealed that the realigned airway

would not meet FAA design criteria.

The FAA will, therefore, not adopt the

proposed realignment of J–10.

Jet routes are published in paragraph

2004 of FAA Order 7400.9D, dated

September 4, 1996, and effective

September 16, 1996, which is

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR

71.1. The jet route listed in this

document will be published

subsequently in the Order.

The Rule

This amendment to Part 71 of the

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

part 71) extends J–231 from the St.

Johns, AZ, VORTAC west to the

Twentynine Palms, CA, VORTAC. The

extension of J–231 will provide

simplified routing for aircraft overflying

the St. Johns, AZ, VORTAC destined for

Los Angeles International Airport

(LAX). It will reduce sector complexity

northeast of the Phoenix Sky Harbor

International Airport (PHX) by

increasing lateral separation between

PHX arrivals and LAX arrivals, resulting

in increased maneuvering airspace for

sequencing PHX arrivals. This action

enhances air safety and reduces

controller workload.

The FAA has determined that this

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 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.

Standard Instrument Approach

Procedures; Miscellaneous

Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This amendment establishes,

amends, suspends, or revokes Standard

Instrument Approach Procedures

(SIAPs) for operations at certain

airports. These regulatory actions are

needed because of changes occurring in

the National Airspace System, such as

the commissioning of new navigational

facilities, addition of new obstacles, or

changes in air traffic requirements.

These changes are designed to provide

safe and efficient use of the navigable

airspace and to promote safe flight

operations under instrument flight rules

at the affected airports.

DATES: An effective date for each SIAP

is specified in the amendatory

provisions.

Incorporation by reference—approved

by the Director of the Federal Register

on December 31, 1980, and reapproved

as of January 1, 1982.
