SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The FAAs 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.

T251: T251 currently extends from the Farmington, MO, FAM VORTAC, north to the KOETZ, WI, waypoint WP. The proposed amendment would extend T251 by 69 nautical miles to the south of the Farmington, MO, VORTAC, to the new FRNIA, MO, WP.
The FRNIA WP will replace the Malden, MO, VORTAC, which is scheduled to be decommissioned. As amended, T251
would extend between the FRNIA, MO, WP, and the KOETZ, WI, WP.
