The New Madrid Nondirectional Radio Beacon (NDB) that served County Memorial Airport, New Madrid, MO has been decommissioned and the standard instrument approach procedure (SIAP) that utilized the NDB has been cancelled. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) that accommodated the NDB SIAP is no longer needed. This action also increase the radius of the existing controlled airspace at New Madrid, MO to meet requirements of FAA Order 7400.2E. The intended effect of this rule is not to provide appropriate controlled Class E airspace for aircraft operating under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) at New Madrid, MO, delete the New Madrid NDB and coordinates from the legal description of Class E airspace at New Madrid, MO, and comply with the criteria of FAA Order 7400.2E.
