This action modifies Class E airspace at Tonopah, NV, to accommodate aircraft using new Area Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning System (GPS) standard instrument approach procedures at Tonopah Airport, NV. This action also makes a minor adjustment to the geographic coordinates of the airport, and corrects geographic coordinates in the regulatory text. This rule improves the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the airport.
