Amendment to Class E Airspace; Lawrence, KS

This action amends the Class E airspace area at Lawrence Municipal Airport, Lawrence, KS. A review of the Class E airspace area for Lawrence Municipal Airport, indicates the extension to the southwest can be eliminated and the Lawrence Nondirectional Radio Beacon (NDB) has been relocated and the name changed. The Class E airspace does not comply with the 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) airspace required for diverse departures as specified in FAA Order 7400.2D. The Class E airspace area has been enlarged to conform to the criteria of FAA Order 7400.2D. Enlarging the Class E airspace area eliminates the extension of the southeast. The intended effect of this rule is to provide additional Class E airspace for aircraft operating under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR), eliminate the extension, remove reference to the NDB, and comply with the criteria of FAA Order 7400.2D.
