SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

The FAA published a final rule in the Federal Register (87 FR 38915; June 30, 2022), amending T-222 in support of a large and comprehensive T-route modernization project for the state of Alaska. Subsequent to publication, the FAA determined that the CABOT, AK, and IKUFU, AK, route points were inadvertently identified as WPs, in error. This rule corrects those errors by changing all references of the CABOT, AK, and IKUFU, AK, WPs to the CABOT, AK, and IKUFU, AK, Fixes, respectively. These are editorial changes only to match the FAA's aeronautical database information and does not alter the alignment of the affected T-222 route.

United States Area Navigation Routes are published in paragraph 6011 of FAA Order JO 7400.11F, dated August 10, 2021, and effective September 15, 2021, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The RNAV T-route listed in this document will be published subsequently in FAA Order JO 7400.11.
