## Abstract

This action amends the Class E airspace area at Topeka, Forbes Field, KS. A review of the Class E airspace for Forbes Field indicates it does not meet the criteria for 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) airspace required for diverse departures as specified in FAA Order 7400.2D. The area has been enlarged to conform to the criteria of FAA Oder 7400.2D. The intended effect on this rule is to comply with the criteria of FAA Order 7400.2D and to provide controlled Class E airspace for aircraft operating under Instrument Flight Rules.
