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 amend the route structure as required to preserve 
the safe and efficient flow of air traffic.

History

    On September 26, 2014, the FAA published in the Federal Register a 
final rule (79 FR 57758), Docket No. FAA-2014-0295, that amended, 
removed, and established multiple ATS routes in the north central U.S. 
to reflect and accommodate route changes being made in Canadian 
airspace as part of a Canadian airspace redesign project. On December 
5, 2014, the FAA published in the Federal Register a final rule, 
technical amendment (79 FR 72135), Docket No. FAA-2014-0986, that 
further amended a number of the routes to reflect changes made by NAV 
CANADA as part of their airspace redesign effort after publication of 
the original final rule. During a recent aeronautical review, the FAA 
identified waypoint coordinate updates for the Canadian waypoints 
OMRAK, PEPLA, TAGUM, TANKO, and VIGLO.
    This rule makes the corrections to be in concert with FAA and 
Canadian aeronautical databases.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.11A, Airspace Designations and 
Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2016, and effective September 15, 
2016. FAA Order 7400.11A is publicly available as listed in the 
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists Class A, 
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and 
reporting points.

The Rule

    The FAA is amending Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71 by modifying RNAV routes Q-140, Q-816, Q-818, Q-822, Q-824, Q-
917, and Q-935. The route modifications correct the OMRAK, PEPLA, 
TAGUM, TANKO, and VIGLO waypoint geographic coordinates used in the 
routes to match the FAA and Canadian aeronautical database information. 
The amendments ensure safe and efficient across border connectivity.
    The RNAV route modifications accomplished by this action are 
outlined below.
    Q-140: Change the PEPLA waypoint geographic coordinates from ``lat. 
43[deg]47'51.00'' N., long. 080[deg]01'02.00'' W.'' to read ``lat. 
43[deg]47'50.98'' N., long. 080[deg]00'53.56'' W.''
    Q-816: Change the OMRAK waypoint geographic coordinates from ``lat. 
43[deg]16'06.00'' N., long. 082[deg]16'25.00'' W.'' to read ``lat. 
43[deg]16'15.45'' N., long. 082[deg]15'52.31'' W.''
    Q-818: Change the TANKO waypoint geographic coordinates from ``lat. 
43[deg]01'32.00'' N., long. 082[deg]22'43.00'' W.'' to read ``lat. 
43[deg]01'32.48'' N., long. 082[deg]23'02.38'' W.''
    Q-822: Change the TANKO waypoint geographic coordinates from ``lat. 
43[deg]01'32.00'' N., long. 082[deg]22'43.00'' W.'' to read ``lat. 
43[deg]01'32.48'' N., long. 082[deg]23'02.38'' W.''
    Q-824: Change the TAGUM waypoint geographic coordinates from ``lat. 
43[deg]28'47.00'' N., long. 082[deg]10'37.00'' W.'' to read ``lat. 
43[deg]28'54.05'' N., long. 082[deg]09'46.39'' W.''
    Q-917: Change the VIGLO waypoint geographic coordinates from ``lat. 
45[deg]23'28.00'' N., long. 082[deg]25'11.00'' W.'' to read ``lat. 
45[deg]23'48.00'' N., long. 082[deg]25'11.00'' W.'', and the PEPLA 
waypoint geographic coordinates from ``lat. 43[deg]47'51.00'' N., long. 
080[deg]01'02.00'' W.'' to read ``lat. 43[deg]47'50.98'' N., long. 
080[deg]00'53.56'' W.''
    Q-935: Change the OMRAK waypoint geographic coordinates from ``lat. 
43[deg]16'06.00'' N., long. 082[deg]16'25.00'' W.'' to read ``lat. 
43[deg]16'15.45'' N., long. 082[deg]15'52.31'' W.''
    High altitude United States RNAV Q-routes are published in 
paragraph 2006 and high altitude Canadian RNAV Q-routes are published 
in paragraph 2007 of FAA Order 7400.11A dated August 3, 2016, and 
effective September 15, 2016, which is incorporated by reference in 14 
CFR 71.1. The high altitude United States and Canadian RNAV Q-routes 
listed in this rule will be subsequently published in the Order.

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 modifying seven high 
altitude RNAV Q-routes qualifies for categorical exclusion under the 
National Environmental Policy Act 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

[[Page 6214]]

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). This action is not expected to cause any 
potentially significant environmental impacts. In accordance with FAAO 
1050.1F, paragraph 5-2 regarding Extraordinary Circumstances, this 
action has been reviewed for factors and circumstances in which a 
normally categorically excluded action may have a significant 
environmental impact requiring further analysis, and it is determined 
that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of 
an environmental assessment.
