SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

The FAA published a final rule in the Federal Register (83 FR 22840, May 17, 2018) for Doc. No. FAA-2017-0994, amending Class D airspace, Class E surface airspace, Class E airspace designated as an extension to a Class D surface area, and Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet or more above the surface at Greenwood-Leflore Airport, Greenwood, MS. Subsequent to publication, the FAA found duplicative language in the regulatory text of the Class E airspace area extending upward from 700 feet above the surface. This action corrects the error by removing that part of the extra text that reads “That airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface within a 6.9-mile radius of That That airspace”. The airspace description now reads “That airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface within a 6.9-mile radius of Greenwood-Leflore Airport and within 1.2 miles each side of the Sidon VORTAC 079° radial, extending from the 6.9-mile radius to 2 miles each side of the VORTAC.”

Class D and E airspace designations are published in paragraph 5000, 6002, 6004, and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.11B dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15, 2017, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR part 71.1. The Class D and E airspace designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order.
