SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

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 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 41 / Thursday, February 29, 2024 / Proposed Rules 14787 

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 would 

modify the NAS as necessary to 

preserve the safe and efficient flow of 

air traffic. 

Comments Invited 

The FAA invites interested persons to 

participate in this rulemaking by 

submitting written comments, data, or 

views. Comments are specifically 

invited on the overall regulatory, 

aeronautical, economic, environmental, 

and energy-related aspects of the 

proposal. The most helpful comments 

reference a specific portion of the 

proposal, explain the reason for any 

recommended change, and include 

supporting data. To ensure the docket 

does not contain duplicate comments, 

commenters should submit only one 

time if comments are filed 

electronically, or commenters should 

send only one copy of written 

comments if comments are filed in 

writing. 

The FAA will file in the docket all 

comments it receives, as well as a report 

summarizing each substantive public 

contact with FAA personnel concerning 

this proposed rulemaking. Before acting 

on this proposal, the FAA will consider 

all comments it receives on or before the 

closing date for comments. The FAA 

will consider comments filed after the 

comment period has closed if it is 

possible to do so without incurring 

expense or delay. The FAA may change 

this proposal in light of the comments 

it receives. 

Privacy: In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 

553(c), DOT solicits comments from the 

public to better inform its rulemaking 

process. DOT posts these comments, 

without edit, including any personal 

information the commenter provides, to 

www.regulations.gov, as described in 

the system of records notice (DOT/ALL– 

14 FDMS), which can be reviewed at 

www.dot.gov/privacy.

An electronic copy of this document 

may be downloaded through the 

internet at www.regulations.gov. 

Recently published rulemaking 

documents can also be accessed through 

the FAA’s web page at www.faa.gov/air_

amendments/. 

You may review the public docket 

containing the proposal, any comments 

received and any final disposition in 

person in the Dockets Operations office 

(see ADDRESSES section for address, 

phone number, and hours of 

operations). An informal docket may 

also be examined during normal 

business hours at the office of the 

Eastern Service Center, Federal Aviation 

Administration, Room 210, 1701 

Columbia Avenue, College Park, GA 

30337. 

Incorporation by Reference 

United States Area Navigation routes 

are published in paragraph 2006 and 

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. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing to amend 14 

CFR part 71 by establishing RNAV 

routes Q–147, Q–149, and T–484 in the 

eastern United States. This action 

supports the FAA’s NextGen efforts to 

provide a modern RNAV route structure 

to improve the safety and efficiency of 

the NAS. The proposed RNAV route 

actions are described below. 

Q–147: Q–147 is a new RNAV route 

proposed to extend between the 

BURGG, SC, waypoint (WP), and the 

Dryer, OH (DJB), Very High Frequency 

Omnidirectional Range/Distance 

Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME). The 

proposed route would overlay Jet Route 

J–85 between the BURGG WP and the 

Dryer VOR/DME. The new proposed 

RNAV route would provide RNAV 

routing between the Spartanburg, SC, 

area, and the Cleveland, OH, area. 

Q–149: Q–149 is a new RNAV route 

proposed to extend between the 

BURGG, SC, WP and the Dryer, OH 

(DJB), VOR/DME. The proposed route 

would overlay Jet Route J–83 between 

the BURGG WP and the Dryer VOR/ 

DME. The new proposed RNAV route 

would provide alternate connectivity 

between the Spartanburg, SC, area, and 

the Cleveland, OH, area. 

T–484: T–484 is a new RNAV route 

proposed to extend between the NELLO, 

GA, Fix, and the BURGG, SC, WP. The 

proposed route would overlay VOR 

Federal Airway V–415 between the 

NELLO Fix and the BURGG WP. The 

new proposed RNAV route would 

provide RNAV connectivity between the 

Atlanta, GA, area and the Spartanburg, 

SC, area. 

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.
