## Abstract

This amendment revises the Class E airspace at Sabine Pass, TX. The development of global positioning system (GPS) standard instrument approach procedures (SIAP), helicopter point-in-space approaches, to heliports in the Sabine Pass, TX, area has made this rule necessary. This action is intended to provide adequate controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet or more above the surface for instrument flight rules (IFR) operations to the heliports.
