Revision of VOR Federal V-480 and Jet Route J-120; AK

This action revises Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal Airway 480 (V-480) and Jet Route 120 (J-120) in Alaska by adding a routinely used route segment between Mt. Moffett and St. Paul Island, AK. The FAA is revising these routes for the following reasons: The conversion of this uncharted nonregulatory route to a VOR Federal airway and jet route will add additional instrument flight rules (IFR) airway and route infrastructure in Alaska; pilots will be provided with minimum en route altitudes and minimum obstruction clearance altitudes information; to establish controlled airspace, thus eliminating some of the commercial IFR operations in uncontrolled airspace; and to improve the management of air traffic operations and thereby enhance safety.
