Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11B, airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15, 2017. FAA Order 7400.11B is publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this [[Page 18238]] document. FAA Order 7400.11B lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and reporting points. Background The Seattle, Salt Lake City, Oakland, Denver, and Minneapolis Air Route Traffic Control Centers (ARTCCs) propose to amend three RNAV T- routes, remove one RNAV T-route, and establish five new RNAV T-routes. These RNAV routes will support the low altitude route structure in the above listed ARTCCs airspace providing routes around congested airspace, routing around special use airspace (SUA), lower minimum enroute altitudes (MEAs) across mountainous terrain, provide connectivity to instrument approach procedures (IAPs) at airports, while minimizing traffic congestion within ARTCC and terminal control airspaces. Additionally, FAA policy states even numbered route points are listed west to east and odd numbered routes points are listed south to north. Currently, route T-304 is an even numbered route extending north and south. Due to this amendment the route is oriented south to north which dictates a number change to an odd numbered route. Hence, the reasoning for deletion of route T-304. This proposed amendment corrects the numbering of the route and will be in line with current policy. The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to amend United States RNAV routes T-274, T-276, T-302; remove route T-304, and establish United States RNAV routes T-268, T-317, T-328, T-332, T-355. The proposed route changes are outlined below. T-268: T-268 would be established from the Tatooush, WA (TOU), VORTAC to Bismarck, ND (BIS), VOR/DME. T-268 provides a route structure around Seattle Class B airspace to the northwest extending east, providing the lowest MEA across the Cascade Mountain Range, lower than existing victor airways where icing conditions are prevalent. The airway extends east through air traffic control terminal airspace areas, borders the Powder River Military Operations Areas (MOAs) to the north, and terminates in North Dakota. T-274: T-274 would be amended to provide a route across the Cascade Mountain Range in central Oregon. Once east of the mountain range, it provides a RNAV route between and past several MOAs, past Reno, Nevada and terminating just prior to Los Angeles ARTCC airspace. T-276: T-276 would be amended to extend west to Ocean Shores, WA and to the east, providing a route through the Columbia Gorge, bordering the Boardman MOA to the north. The route continues east past Walla Walla, WA, Missoula, Great Falls, and Lewistown, MT, bordering the HAYS MOA to the east, terminating at Glasgow, MT. T-302: T-302 would be amended to extend to the southeast providing an RNAV route bordering the JUNIPER and SADDLE MOAs. The route continues past Boise, ID, and Twin Falls, ID, then southeast to Rock Springs, WY. From Rock Springs, the route continues east, terminating at LLUKY waypoint south of LAKEANDES MOA in Nebraska. This route provides connectivity to terminal instrument approach procedures at several airports. T-304: T-304 would be removed. T-317: T-317 would be established from the Newman, TX (EWM), VORTAC to Astoria, OR (AST), VOR/DME. T-317 will provide an RNAV route replacing portions of V-187, which was affected by the discontinuance of the McChord VORTAC. T-328: T-328 would be established from the ORCUS, WA, fix to the KARSH, MT, fix. T-328 is a new airway that provides a route across the Cascade Mountain Range in northern Washington state where no low altitude airways exist today. This route borders the Okanogan MOA to the south, providing a safe route around the airspace. The airway borders the Spokane terminal airspace and connects with instrument approach procedures, providing a seamless transition from enroute to the landing phase of flight. T-332: T-332 would be established from the ZONUV, WA, waypoint to the ROZTY, WA, waypoint. T-332 is a new route across the Cascade Mountain Range in northern Washington state. This route is a shorter route through the Okanogan MOA, to be used when released for joint use. This route provides an MEA of 10,700 feet, which is 1,000 feet lower than another route to the south. This route saves over 60 flying miles to get to a low MEA across the mountain range where icing conditions are prevalent. T-355: T-355 would be established to extend south and north of the previous airway T-304, thus replacing the original west to east T-304 airway. T-355 will extend north and south of the original T-304 route to provide greater utility for air traffic. The route provides crossings of the Cascade Mountain Range and provides for connectivity to terminal areas in the Bend and Medford, Oregon airports. On the south end, the route links to the existing T-263. To the north it provides a route west of Seattle Class B airspace to Bellingham, WA, and the Canadian border. United States Area Navigation Routes are published in paragraph 6011 of FAA Order 7400.11B dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15, 2017, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The United States Area Navigation Routes listed in this document will be subsequently published in the Order. 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.
