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 

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 route structure as necessary 

to preserve the safe and efficient flow of 

air traffic within the NAS. 

Comments Invited 

Interested parties are invited to 

participate in this proposed rulemaking 

by submitting such written data, views, 

or arguments as they may desire. 

Comments that provide the factual basis 

supporting the views and suggestions 

presented are particularly helpful in

decisions on the proposal. Comments 

are specifically invited on the overall 

regulatory, aeronautical, economic, 

environmental, and energy-related 

aspects of the proposal. 

Communications should identify both 

docket numbers (FAA Docket No. FAA– 

2021–1079; Airspace Docket No. 21– 

ASO–15) and be submitted in triplicate 

to the Docket Management Facility (see

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

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

Background 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking for Docket No. 

FAA–2021–1079 in the Federal Register 

(86 FR 70771; December 13, 2021) to 

amend jet routes J–20, J–31, J–41, and J– 

73; and to remove J–69, and high 

altitude RNAV route Q–63. However, 

the details of the J–73 amendment were 

inadvertently left out of the NPRM. This 

SNPRM adds the amendment of J–73 to 

Docket No. FAA–2021–1079. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to 14 CFR part 71 to amend jet route J– 

73 in the eastern United States. This 

action supports the FAA’s VOR MON 

program. 

The proposed route change is as 

follows: 

J–73: J–73 currently extends between 

the La Grange, GA, (LGC) VOR and 

Tactical Air Navigational System 

(VORTAC) and the Northbrook, IL, 

(OBK) VOR/Distance Measuring 

Equipment (VOR/DME). This action 

proposes to remove the La Grange 

VORTAC, and the segment between La 

Grange and Nashville, TN, from the 

route. As amended, J–73 would extend 

from Nashville, TN; Pocket City, IN; to 

Northbrook, IL. 

Jet routes are published in paragraph 

2004 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 jet route listed in this 

document would be subsequently 

amended 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 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. 

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.

Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a 

State Implementation Plan (SIP) 

revision submitted to EPA by the 

Commonwealth of Kentucky through 

the Kentucky Division for Air Quality 

(KDAQ) on October 15, 2020. The 

proposed changes were submitted by 

KDAQ to address the emissions 

statement requirements for the 2015 8- 

hour ozone national ambient air quality 

standards (NAAQS) for Kentucky 

counties in the Cincinnati, OhioKentucky 2015 8-hour ozone NAAQS

the remaining counties in these two 

nonattainment areas, including the 

Jefferson County, Kentucky portion of 

the Louisville, KY-IN Area, in separate 

rulemakings. EPA is proposing approval 

pursuant to the Clean Air Act (CAA or
