Abstract
This action amends Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Taylor County Airport, Medford, WI and Waupaca Municipal Airport, Waupaca, WI, to accommodate new standard instrument approach procedures for instrument flight rules (IFR) operations at these airports. This action is necessary due to the decommissioning of the Medford and Waupaca non directional radio beacons (NDB), and cancellation of NDB approaches. Also, an error in the geographic coordinates of Waupaca Municipal Airport and Taylor County Airport are corrected. This action enhances the safety and management of IFR operations at these airports.
