Abstract
This action amends Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface for Lake Norman Airpark, Mooresville, NC, by removing Lowe's Mooresville Heliport from the description as the heliport has closed, and airspace is no longer required. This action enhances the safety and management of controlled airspace within the national airspace system. Also, during the airspace review, the FAA determined a radius increase was required at Lake Norman Airpark. In addition, the FAA is removing unnecessary verbiage that references Class E airspace in Statesville, NC and Concord, NC. Controlled airspace is necessary for the safety and management of instrument flight rules (IFR) operations in the area.
