## Abstract

This action modifies Class E airspace at Cooperstown, ND. A review of the controlled airspace within the State of North Dakota indicated a small portion of Class G uncontrolled airspace in the vicinity of Cooperstown, ND. Controlled airspace extending upward from 1200 feet above ground level (AGL) is needed to allow the FAA to provide safe and efficient air traffic control services for aircraft executing enroute and terminal instrument procedures into and out of Grand Forks International Airport. This small portion of uncontrolled airspace, in the southwest quadrant of Grand Forks Approach Control airspace, causes confusion for both pilots and controllers and does not allow for consistent application of instrument flight rules in a critical area servicing the Grand Forks International Airport. This action eliminates the Class G airspace approximately 15 nautical miles to the southeast of Cooperstown Airport.
