DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 93-ANM-40]

 

Revocation of Jet Route J-201

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action revokes Jet Route J-201 located between the Myton, 
UT, Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigation 
(VORTAC) facility and the Scottsbluff, NE, VORTAC. This jet route 
failed to meet the necessary criteria required for extended service 
volume protection during the latest flight check. The FAA has issued 
several notices to airmen (NOTAM) stating that J-201 is canceled and 
flight is not authorized. These NOTAM's will be canceled once this 
final rule becomes effective on March 3, 1994.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 u.t.c., March 3, 1994.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Norman W. Thomas, Airspace and Obstruction Evaluation Branch (ATP-240), 
Airspace-Rules and Aeronautical Information Division, Air Traffic Rules 
and Procedures Service, Federal Aviation Administration, 800 
Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591; telephone: (202) 267-
9230.

The Rule

    This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations 
revokes J-201 between the Myton, UT, VORTAC and the Scottsbluff, NE, 
VORTAC. During the latest flight check, this jet route failed to meet 
the necessary criteria required for extended service volume protection. 
The FAA has issued several NOTAM's stating that J-201 is canceled and 
flight is not authorized. These NOTAM's will be canceled once this 
final rule becomes effective on March 3, 1994. I find that notice and 
public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary because this is 
a minor technical amendment in which the public is not particularly 
interested. Jet routes are published in Paragraph 2004 of FAA Order 
7400.9A dated June 17, 1993, and effective September 16, 1993, which is 
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 (58 FR 36298; July 6, 1993). 
The jet route listed in this document will be removed subsequently from 
the Order.
    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 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 rule will not have a significant economic impact on 
a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
