Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 123 / Tuesday, June 28, 2022 / Rules and Regulations 38271 

Differences From the NPRM 

Subsequent to publication of the 

NPRM the FAA discovered that the 

geographic coordinates for the Central 

Wisconsin: RWY 08–LOC were 

incorrect. ‘‘(lat. 44°47′07′′ N, long. 

89°28′30′′ W)’’ has been corrected to 

‘‘(lat. 44°47′07′′ N, long. 89°38′30′′ W).’’ 

This correction has been incorporated 

into this action. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 71 

amends the Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Central Wisconsin Airport, Mosinee, 

WI, by removing the Wausau VORTAC 

from the airspace legal description; adds 

an extension 1 mile each side of the 

170° bearing from the Central 

Wisconsin: RWY 35–LOC extending 

from the 7-mile radius from the airport 

to 11.2 miles south of the airport; adds 

an extension 1 mile each side of the 

257° bearing from the Central 

Wisconsin: RWY 08–LOC extending 

from the 7-mile radius of the airport to 

11.5 miles west of the airport; and 

removes the extension north of the 

airport as the amended extension would 

be contained within the Wausau, WI, 

Class E airspace so would be redundant. 

This action is due to an airspace 

review conducted as part of the 

decommissioning of the Wausau VOR, 

which provided navigation information 

for the instrument procedures at this 

airport, as part of the VOR MON 

Program. 

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 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. 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 only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, does not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 5–6.5.a. This airspace action 

is not expected to cause any potentially 

significant environmental impacts, and 

no extraordinary circumstances exist 

that warrant preparation of an 

environmental assessment.

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, 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES
38272 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 123 / Tuesday, June 28, 2022 / Rules and Regulations 

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. 

History 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking for Docket No. 

FAA–2021–1082 in the Federal Register 

(86 FR 70778; December 13, 2021), 

amending three jet routes and removing 

four jet routes in the eastern United 

States. Interested parties were invited to 

participate in this rulemaking effort by 

submitting written comments on the 

proposal. No comments were received. 

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 routes listed in this 

document would be subsequently 

amended in, or removed from, 

respectively, FAA Order JO 7400.11. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends 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. 

Difference From the NPRM 

In the NPRM, the FAA proposed to 

amend jet route J–46. Subsequent to the 

publication of the NPRM, the FAA 

determined that additional coordination 

was needed to finalize the design of J– 

46. Consequently, J–46 is removed from 

this rule and will remain as currently 

shown on the IFR En Route chart. Any 

future modification of J–46 will be 

addressed in a separate rulemaking 

action. Routes J–22, J–48, J–39, J–118, J– 

145, and J–186 will be amended or 

removed by this rule as proposed in the 

NPRM. 

The Rule 

This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by 

amending jet routes J–22, and J–48; and 

removing jet routes J–39, J–118, J–145, 

and J–186 in the eastern United States. 

This action supports the VOR MON 

program by amending or removing 

certain jet route segments due to the 

planned decommissioning of groundbased navigation aids. Additionally, the 

jet route changes reduce aeronautical 

chart clutter by removing unneeded 

route segments. 

The route changes are as follows: 

J–22: J–22 currently extends from 

Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, to Montebello, 

VA. This action removes the route 

segments from Vulcan, AL, to 

Montebello, VA. As amended, the J–22 

extends from Nuevo Laredo, Mexico to 

Meridian, MS. The portion within 

Mexico is excluded. 

J–39: J–39 currently extends from 

Montgomery, AL, to Rosewood, OH. The 

FAA is removing the entire route. 

J–48: J–48 currently extends from the 

intersection of the Solberg, NJ, 264° and 

the Pottstown, PA, 050° radials, to 

Foothills, SC. This action removes the 

segment between Montebello, VA, and 

Foothills, SC. As amended, J–48 extends 

from the intersection of the above 

Solberg and Pottstown radials to 

Montebello, VA. 

J–118: J–118 currently extends from 

Memphis, TN, to Spartanburg, SC. The 

FAA is removing the entire route. 

J–145: J–145 currently extends from 

Foothills, SC, to Charleston, WV. The 

FAA is removing the entire route. 

J–186: J–186 currently extends from 

Foothills, SC, to Appleton, OH. The 

FAA is removing the entire route. 

FAA Order 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 

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 only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, does not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action of amending jet routes J–22, and 

J–48; and removing jet routes J–39, J– 

118, J–145, and J–186 in the eastern 

United States qualifies for categorical 

exclusion under the National 

Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 

4321 et seq.) and its implementing 

regulations at 40 CFR part 1500, and in 

accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, 

Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures, paragraph 5–6.5a, which 

categorically excludes from further 

environmental impact review 

rulemaking actions that designate or 

modify classes of airspace areas, 

airways, routes, and reporting points 

(see 14 CFR part 71, Designation of 

Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace Areas; 

Air Traffic Service Routes; and 

Reporting Points); and paragraph 5– 

6.5b, which categorically excludes from 

further environmental impact review 

‘‘Actions regarding establishment of jet 

routes and Federal airways (see 14 CFR 

71.15, Designation of jet routes and VOR 

Federal airways) . . .’’. As such, this 

action is not expected to result in any 

potentially significant environmental 

impacts. In accordance with FAA Order 

1050.1F, paragraph 5–2 regarding 

Extraordinary Circumstances, the FAA 

has reviewed this action for factors and 

circumstances in which a normally 

categorically excluded action may have 

a significant environmental impact 

requiring further analysis. The FAA has 

determined no extraordinary 

circumstances exist that warrant 

preparation of an environmental 

assessment or environmental impact 

study.

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 

expand the availability of RNAV in 

Alaska and improve the efficient flow of 

air traffic within the National Airspace 

System by lessening the dependency on 

ground based navigation. 

History 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking for Docket No. 

FAA–2021–0818 in the Federal Register 

(86 FR 58230; October 21, 2021), 

proposing to establish RNAV T-route, 

T–366 in the vicinity of Point Hope, AK 

in support of a large and comprehensive 

T-route modernization project for the 

state of Alaska. Interested parties were 

invited to participate in this rulemaking 

effort by submitting comments on the 

proposal. There were no comments 

received. 

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 route listed in this 

document will be published 

subsequently in FAA Order JO 

7400.11F. 

Differences From the NPRM 

Subsequent to the publication of the 

NPRM for Docket No. FAA–2021–0818 

in the Federal Register (86 FR 58230; 

October 21, 2021), the FAA determined 

it was necessary to relocate the 

following waypoints (WPs): VANTY, 

CABGI, JOGDU, and JATIL, to address 

instrument flight procedure concerns 

related to the WPs being located too 

close to the Non-Directional Beacon 

(NDB). As a result, the latitude/long 

geographic coordinates for the WPs are 

changed from what was proposed in the 

NPRM. This change will move each WP 

by approximately 600-feet from the 

location as proposed in the NPRM. The 

regulatory text in this action 

incorporates these changes.
