## Abstract

This action establishes Class D airspace at Bay St. Louis, MS. A Federal contract tower with a weather reporting system is being constructed at the Stennis International Airport. Therefore, the airport will meet the criteria for establishment of Class D airspace. Class D surface area airspace is required when the control tower is open to contain existing Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and other Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the airport. This action will establish Class D airspace extending upward from the surface, to and including 2,500 feet MSL, within a 4.2-mile radius of the airport.
