Abstract
This notice amends Class E airspace at Toccoa, GA. The VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) or Global Positioning System (GPS) Runway (RWY) 20 Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) has been amended to the Toccoa RG Letourneau Field Airport. As a result, additional controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to accommodate the SIAP and for Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at Toccoa RG Letourneau Field Airport. An extension via the 023 degree radial of the Foothills (ODF) VHF Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) for the VOR or GPS RWY 20 SIAP is necessary. The length of the Class E airspace extension northeast of the VORTAC is 7 miles, and the width of the airspace extension is 6.8 miles. This amendment also reflects the correct geographical position coordinates for the Toccoa RG Letourneau Field Airport and the Habersham County Airport; which are minor technical changes as the position of the airports is unchanged.
