Abstract
This action revises Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface, and adjusts the airport's geographic coordinates at Barter Island LRRS Airport, Barter Island, AK. The Barter Island Borough is relocating the airport due to high maintenance caused by weather erosion. The FAA found modification of standard instrument approach and departure procedures and supporting airspace necessary for the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the new airport.
