Abstract
This action establishes Class E2 airspace to accommodate an Automated Weather Observation System/Surface Weather and Reporting System (AWOS/SWARS) to serve runaway 01/19 approach at Sawyer Airport, Gwinn, MI. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 to 1200 feet above ground level (AGL) is needed to contain aircraft executing the approach. The intended effect of this action is to provide segregation of aircraft using instrument approach procedures in instrument conditions from other aircraft operating in visual weather conditions.
