SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 19, 2011, the FAA published a final rule in the
Federal Register amending and establishing nine ATS routes in the
northeast United States (76 FR 57902). Subsequent to publication a more
accurate alignment was calculated for the establishment of the CANDR WP
position of RNAV route Q-480. The refined coordinates result in a minor
change of the CANDR position that is 0.28 nautical miles (NM) north of
the original location. This equates to a move of approximately 1,700
feet which is well within the standard 8 NM width of RNAV routes. Since
the coordinates in air traffic service route descriptions are rounded
to the nearest second, the amended CANDR position is listed as ``lat.
40[deg]58'16'' N., long. 74[deg]57'35'' W.''
Area Navigation Routes are published in paragraph 2006 of FAA Order
7400.9V, dated August 9, 2011, and effective September 15, 2011, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
[[Page 72837]]
71.1. The RNAV route listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.
Correction to Final Rule
Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the
coordinates for the CANDR waypoint as published in the Federal Register
on September 19, 2011 (76 FR 57902) (FR Doc. 2011-23839) for RNAV route
Q-480, is corrected under the description as follows:
Paragraph 2006--United States Area Navigation Routes
* * * * *
Q-480 [Corrected]
On page 57905, line 38, Remove ``CANDR, NJ WP (lat.
40[deg]57'59'' N., long. 74[deg]57'29'' W.)''and insert ``CANDR, NJ
WP (lat. 40[deg]58'16'' N., long. 74[deg]57'35'' W.)
Issued in Washington, DC, on November 16, 2011.
