Abstract
This action revises the legal description of the Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) Class B airspace area by changing its point of origin from the DFW Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) to the VORTAC's present geographical coordinates. The FAA is taking this action due to the planned relocation of the DFW VORTAC \3/4\ nautical miles (NM) west of its present location. The intent of this action is to facilitate the relocation of the DFW VORTAC without changing the actual dimensions, configuration, or operating requirements of the DFW Class B airspace area.
