airport’s name, and adding an extension 

1 mile each side of the airports 244° 

bearing extending from the airports 4.6- 

mile radius to 5.5 miles southwest of the 

airport, and replacing the outdated term 

Airport/Facility Directory with the term 

Chart Supplement in the airport 

description; 

The Gwinnett County/Briscoe Field 

Airport (formerly Lawrenceville, 

Gwinnett County-Briscoe Field Airport) 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface would be 

amended by updating the airport’s 

name, increasing the radius to 7.0 miles 

(formerly 6.5 miles), eliminating the 

extension to the east, and removing the 

Gwinnett County NDB from the 

description. 

Controlled airspace is necessary for 

the safety and management of 

instrument flight rules (IFR) operations 

in the area. 

Class D and Class E airspace 

designations are published in 

Paragraphs 5000 and 6005, respectively, 

of FAA Order JO 7400.11F, dated 

August 10, 2021, and effective 

September 15, 2021, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class D and Class E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

would be published subsequently in 

FAA Order JO 7400.11. 

FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, is 

published yearly and effective on 

September 15. 

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.

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document proposes to amend 

FAA Order JO 7400.11F, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, 

dated August 10, 2021, and effective 

September 15, 2021. FAA Order JO 

7400.11F is publicly available as listed 

in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. FAA Order JO 7400.11F lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, 

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

Background 

In 2003, Congress enacted the Vision 

100-Century of Aviation 

Reauthorization Act (Pub. L. 108–176), 

which established a joint planning and 

development office in the FAA to 

manage the work related to the Next 

Generation Air Transportation System 

(NextGen). Today, NextGen is an 

ongoing FAA-led modernization of the 

nation’s air transportation system to 

make flying safer, more efficient, and 

more predictable. 

In support of NextGen, this proposal 

is part of a larger and comprehensive Troute modernization project in the state 

of Alaska. The project mission statement 

states: ‘‘To modernize Alaska’s Air 

Traffic Service route structure using 

satellite based navigation Development 

of new T-routes and optimization of 

existing T-routes will enhance safety, 

increase efficiency and access, and will 

provide en route continuity that is not 

subject to the restrictions associated 

with ground based airway navigation.’’ 

As part of this project, the FAA 

evaluated the existing Colored Airway 

structure for: (a) Direct replacement (i.e., 

overlay) with a T-route that offers a 

similar or lower Minimum En route 

Altitude (MEA) or Global Navigation 

Satellite System Minimum En route 

Altitude (GNSS MEA); (b) the 

replacement of the Colored airway with 

a T-route in an optimized but similar 

geographic area, while retaining similar 

or lower MEA; or (c) removal with no 

route structure (T-route) restored in that 

area because the value was determined 

to be insignificant. 

The aviation industry/users have 

indicated a desire for the FAA to 

transition the Alaskan en route 

navigation structure away from 

dependency on Non-Directional 

Beacons (NDB), and move to develop 

and improve the RNAV route structure. 

The FAA proposes to amend RNAV 

route T–232 that currently navigates 

between the Barrow, AK, (BRW) VHF 

Omnidirectional Radar/Distance 

Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME) and 

the Northway, AK, (ORT) VOR and 

Tactical Air Navigational System 

(VORTAC). The proposed amendments 

would allow for lower GNSS MEAs, 

while ensuring lateral separation from 

Special Use Airspace (SUA) in the area. 

The proposed route will also provide 

instrument approach accessibility to 

Allen Army Air Field, AK (PABI) 

Airport. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to 14 CFR part 71 to amend RNAV route 

T–232 in the vicinity of Fairbanks, AK 

in support of a large and comprehensive 

T-route modernization project for the 

state of Alaska. The proposed route is 

described below. 

T–232: The FAA proposes to amend 

T–232 by amending the segment 

between the Fairbanks, AK, (FAI) 

VORTAC and the Big Delta, AK, (BIG) 

VORTAC by adding two newly 

established waypoints (WP); the RIVOR, 

AK, WP and the CUTUB, AK, WP; in 

order to facilitate a lower GNSS MEA 

and ensure lateral separation from 

active special use airspace (SUA) in the 

area. The proposal will also correct the 

legal description, by including the turn 

points, OCOCU, AK, WP, and IMARE, 

AK WP, and removing the BRONX, AK, 

Fix. The full legal description is 

included in ‘‘The Proposed 

Amendment’’ section below. 

United States Area Navigation Routes 

are published in paragraph 6011 of FAA 

Order JO 7400.11F dated August 10, 

2021, and effective September 15, 2021, 

which is incorporated by reference in 14 

CFR 71.1. The RNAV listed in this 

document would be published 

subsequently in FAA Order JO 7400.11.

Disapproval of Air Quality 

Implementation Plans; Wyoming; 

Proposed Revisions to Regional Haze 

State Implementation Plan 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to 

disapprove a State Implementation Plan 

(SIP) revision submitted by the State of 

Wyoming on May 14, 2020, and 

supplemented in September and 

October 2020, addressing regional haze 

(‘‘Wyoming’s 2020 SIP revision’’). 

Wyoming’s 2020 SIP revision reverses 

the State’s 2011 decision that emission 

limits consistent with the installation of 

selective catalytic reduction (SCR) for 

the Jim Bridger power plant, Units 1 and 

2, are necessary to make reasonable 

progress under the State’s long-term 

strategy for the first regional haze 

planning period. The SIP revision 

contains a source-specific nitrogen 

oxide (NOX) reasonable progress 

analysis and determination that 

currently installed controls (low-NOX

burners with separated overfire air 

(LNB/SOFA)) are sufficient for 

reasonable progress during the first 

planning period for Jim Bridger Units 1 

and 2, and that the emission limits 

associated with the installation of SCR 

are no longer necessary. The SIP 

revision also contains plant-wide 

monthly and annual NOX and sulfur 

dioxide (SO2) emission limits for the Jim 

Bridger power plant, Units 1–4. EPA is 

proposing to disapprove this SIP 

revision in full. The agency is proposing 

this action pursuant to sections 110 and 

169A of the Clean Air Act (CAA).
