14 CFR Part 71
[Airspace Docket No. 93-AEA-1]
Alteration of Jet Route J-223 and Establishment of Jet Route J-
132; NY
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action alters Jet Route J-223 and establishes Jet Route
J-132 located in New Jersey and New York. This action deletes a section
of Jet Route J-223 from the intersection of LaGuardia (LGA) Very High
Frequency Omnidirectional Range/Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME)
310 deg. True (T) 322 deg. Magnetic (M) radial and the Elmira (ELM)
VOR/DME 110 deg.(T) 119 deg.(M) radial to the Elmira VOR/DME. In
addition, a new jet route, J-132, will be established from the Elmira
VOR/DME to the Huguenot Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range/
Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC). Altering J-223 and establishing J-132
will enhance the flow of air traffic and simplify routing in the
vicinity of Elmira, NY.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On October 26, 1993, the FAA proposed to amend part 71 of the
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to delete a segment of
Jet Route J-223 and to establish Jet Route J-132 from Elmira VOR/DME to
Huguenot VORTAC (58 FR 57571).
Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking
proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA.
No comments objecting to the proposal were received. Except for
editorial changes, this amendment is the same as that proposed in the
notice. Jet routes are published in paragraph 2004 of FAA Order 7400.9B
dated July 18, 1994, and effective September 16, 1994, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The jet routes listed in this
document will be published subsequently in the Order.
The Rule
This amendment to part 71 of the Federal Aviation Regulations
alters Jet Route J-223 by deleting a section of that jet route from the
intersection of LaGuardia VOR/DME 310 deg. radial and the Elmira VOR/
DME 110 deg. radial to the Elmira VOR/DME. In addition, this rule
establishes a new jet route, J-132, from the intersection of Elmira
VOR/DME 110 deg. radial and the Huguenot VORTAC 291 deg. radial to the
Huguenot VORTAC. This action is necessary to simplify routing and
expedite the flow of air traffic.
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.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71
