## Abstract

This action amends the Class E airspace area at Newton Municipal Airport, Newton, IA. The FAA has developed Global Positioning System (GPS) Runway (RWY) 14 and RWY 32 Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) to serve Newton Municipal Airport, IA. Additional controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to accommodate these SIAPs and for Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at this airport. The enlarged area will contain the new GPS RWY 14 and GPS RWY 31 SIAPs in controlled airspace. The intended effect of this rule is to provide controlled Class E airspace for aircraft executing the GPS RWY 14 and GPS RWY 32 SIAPs and to segregate aircraft using instrument approach procedures in instrument conditions from aircraft operating in visual conditions.
