The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new rule amending certain Federal Airways and Navigation Routes in the United States and Canada. This change is due to the planned shutdown of a navigation system in Iron Mountain, Michigan. As a result, routes V-9, V-78, V-341, and V-430, as well as Canadian route T-765, have been altered. A new U.S. route, T-490, has also been established to help aircraft navigate around certain areas and maintain efficient air traffic.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule amending certain airways and routes due to the decommissioning of a navigation aid in Industry, Texas, as part of their VOR Minimum Operational Network Program. The amendments affect Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal Airways V-68, V-212, V-222, and RNAV Route T-220, while VOR Federal Airway V-558 is revoked entirely. These changes are intended to ensure continued safety and efficiency in the management of U.S. airspace. The rule will take effect on February 20, 2025, and is considered routine with minimal economic impact.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has delayed the effective date for a rule involving changes to several airways and routes, initially set to take effect on February 20, 2025. The new effective date is April 17, 2025. This delay allows time to update and inspect certain flight procedures near George Bush Intercontinental and San Antonio International Airports. The FAA decided that prior notice and public comment were unnecessary because the extension is brief and does not change the substance of the rule.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has delayed the effective date of a rule initially established on January 16, 2025, regarding changes to various airways and a navigation route in Industry, TX. This delay, moving the effective date to August 7, 2025, allows additional time for redesigning and inspecting a flight procedure into George Bush Intercontinental/Houston Airport, which failed its initial evaluations. The decision was deemed necessary to ensure safety and efficiency without prior public comment due to the minor nature of the delay.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule amending several VOR Federal Airways and a U.S. Area Navigation Route, as well as revoking one VOR airway. This change is due to the decommissioning of a navigation aid in Cincinnati, Kentucky, which is part of the FAA's plan to maintain a minimal operational network of VORs. As a result, segments of these airways have been altered or removed to ensure air traffic can still flow safely and efficiently. The amendments are part of the FAA's ongoing efforts to keep airspace management current without significant environmental impact.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a rule to modify certain airways and establish a new area navigation route near Three Rivers, Texas. This is due to the planned decommissioning of the Three Rivers VOR, part of an effort to update the navigation aid system. The proposal outlines changes to VOR Federal Airways V-161, V-163, and V-568, and introduces a new RNAV Route T-545, which would serve RNAV-equipped aircraft and help maintain efficient navigation in the area. The public is invited to submit comments on these proposals before the deadline in January 2025.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing amendments to Jet Routes J-83 and J-85, as well as VOR Federal Airways V-415 and V-605 in the eastern United States to support the relocation of the Spartanburg, SC VORTAC. This project involves adjusting several flight paths to prevent conflicts with nearby routes and updating the navigation points due to the VORTAC's new location. The FAA has determined that these changes are necessary for maintaining efficient air traffic flow and safety in the National Airspace System. Public comments on this proposed rule are invited until February 3, 2025.

The Indian Health Service (IHS) has issued a notice proposing to expand the Purchased/Referred Care Delivery Area (PRCDA) for the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes in Idaho. The expansion would include additional counties, allowing approximately 323 more Tribal members to receive care services. The expansion aligns with criteria such as social and economic ties to the Tribe and geographic proximity to the existing PRCDA. Public comments on this proposal are being accepted until January 15, 2025.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has implemented a final rule to amend and revoke certain Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal Airways in the eastern United States. This change is part of the FAA's VOR Minimum Operational Network (MON) Program and is necessitated by the planned decommissioning of specific navigation aids in Florida. The amended airways include V-3, V-35, V-51, and several others, while airways V-295, V-529, and V-601 have been revoked entirely. This rule aims to maintain efficient and safe navigation across the National Airspace System by updating the route structure to reflect current operational needs.
