## Abstract

This action amends the Class E airspace area at Caruthersville, MO. The FAA has developed Area Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning System (GPS) Runway (RWY) 36 ORIGINAL Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP), RNAV (GPS) RWY 18 ORIGINAL SIAP and VHF Omni-directional Range (VOR)/Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) RWY 18 ORIGINAL SIAP to serve Caruthersville Memorial Airport, Caruthersville, MO. Additional controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to accommodate the SIAPs and for other Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at this airport. The intended effect of this rule is to provide controlled Class E airspace for aircraft executing the SIAPs and to segregate aircraft using instrument approach procedures in instrument conditions from aircraft operating in visual conditions.
