Modification of Class E Airspace; Johnson, KS

This action modifies the Johnson, KS Class E airspace area. Area Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning System (GPS) Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and a nondirectional radio beacon (NDB) SIAP have been developed to serve Stanton County Municipal Airport. The existing SIAP serving Stanton County Municipal Airport will be cancelled when these new SIAPs become effective. An examination of controlled airspace for Johnson, KS revealed a discrepancy in the Stanton County Municipal Airport Airport Reference Point (ARP) used in the legal description of the Class E airspace area. The examination also revealed that this airspace area does not provide adequate airspace for diverse departures. This action provides controlled airspace of appropriate dimensions to protect aircraft departing Stanton County Municipal Airport in instrument weather conditions and aircraft executing SIAPs to the airport. It also incorporates the revised Stanton County Municipal Airport ARP into the Class E airspace legal description and brings the airspace area and legal description into compliance with FAA Orders.
