Abstract
This amendment revises the description of the Austin Class E airspace area by changing its point of origin from the Robert Mueller Municipal Airport to the airport's present geographical coordinates. The FAA is taking this action due to the planned closure of Robert Mueller Municipal Airport and the transfer of airport operations to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. The intent of this action is to facilitate the transfer of airport operations and provide adequate controlled airspace for aircraft operating under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) in the vicinity of Austin, TX.
