SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

Airspace Docket No. 99-AEA-09, published in the Federal Register on October 26, 1999 (64 FR 57557-57558), established the Class E-2 airspace area at York Airport, York County, PA. The description of the airspace incorporated the geographic reference point (GRP) for the airport. The designation was subsequently published in Federal Aviation Administration Order 7400.9L, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated September 2, 2003, and effective September 16, 2003, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1.

Need for Correction

The final rule described the geographic position of the airport with a GRP. Other airspace designations for the airport incorporate the airport reference point (ARP) in the descriptions. This action deletes the GRP and incorporates the ARP for the airport in the description of the Class E-2 airspace designation.
