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 modify three air traffic service route structures
in the eastern United States to maintain the efficient flow of air
traffic.

Comments Invited

    Interested parties are invited to participate in this proposed
rulemaking by submitting such written data, views, or arguments as they
may desire. Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the
views and suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing
reasoned regulatory decisions on the proposal. Comments are
specifically invited on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic,
environmental, and energy-related aspects of the proposal.
    Communications should identify both docket numbers (FAA Docket No.
FAA-2016-9178 and Airspace Docket No. 16-ASO-12) and be submitted in
triplicate to the Docket Management Facility (see ADDRESSES section for
address and phone number). You may also submit comments through the
Internet at http://www.regulations.gov.
    Commenters wishing the FAA to acknowledge receipt of their comments
on this action must submit with those comments a self-addressed,
stamped postcard on which the following statement is made: ``Comments
to FAA Docket No. FAA-2016-9178 and Airspace Docket No. 16-ASO-12.''
The postcard will be date/time stamped and returned to the commenter.
    All communications received on or before the specified comment
closing date will be considered before taking action on the proposed
rule. The proposal contained in this action may be changed in light of
comments received. All comments submitted will be available for
examination in the public docket both before and after the comment
closing date. A report summarizing each substantive public contact with
FAA personnel concerned with this rulemaking will be filed in the
docket.

    You may review the public docket containing the proposal, any
comments received and any final disposition in

person in the Dockets Office (see ADDRESSES section for address and

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend 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 proposed rule. FAA Order 7400.11A
lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service
routes, and reporting points.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to modify the descriptions of VOR Federal
airways V-16, V-94 and V-124, due to the planned decommissioning of the
Jacks Creek, TN, VOR/DME. The proposed route changes are described
below.
    V-16: V-16 extends between Los Angeles, CA, and Boston, MA. The FAA
proposes to modify that portion of the route that reads ``. . .
Marvell, AR; Holly Springs, MS; Jacks Creek, TN; Shelbyville, TN . . .
.'' To read as follows: ``. . . Marvell, AR; to Holly Springs, MS. From
Shelbyville, TN; . . . .'' thus eliminating Jacks Creek, TN, from the
route.
    V-94: V-94 extends between Blythe, CA and Bowling Green, KY. The
FAA proposes to terminate the route at Holly Springs, MS, thus
eliminating the segments of the route from Holly Springs, MS, through
Jacks Creek, TN, to Bowling Green, KY.
    V-124: V-124 extends between Bonham, TX and Graham, TN. The FAA
proposes to terminate the route at Gilmore, AR, thus eliminating the
segments from Gilmore, AR, through Jacks Creek, TN, to Graham, TN.
    Domestic VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010(a) 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 VOR
Federal airways listed in this document would 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.
