## Abstract

This action modifies the Class D airspace at McChord Field (Joint Base Lewis-McChord), Tacoma, WA. After a review of the airspace, the FAA found it necessary to amend the existing airspace for the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at this location and Visual Flight Rules (VFR) at a satellite airport. This action removes a reference to the McChord Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range beacon (VOR) from the legal description, updates the airport name and city, and amends the geographical coordinates for the airport to match the FAA's database.
