History

Federal Register Document 04-23387, published on Tuesday, October 19, 2004, (69 FR 61439) modified the Class E airspace area designated as a surface area and the Class E airspace area extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Dodge City, KS. The modification corrected discrepancies in the Dodge City Regional Airport airport reference point used in the legal descriptions, corrected the airspace dimensions to protect for diverse departures, established an extension to the airspace area extending upward from 700 feet above the surface and brought the legal descriptions of the Dodge City, KS Class E airspace areas into compliance with FAA Orders 7400.2E, Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters, and 8260.19C, Flight Procedures and Airspace. However, there was a typographical error in the legal description for the Class E airspace area extending upward from 700 feet above the surface.

Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the legal description of the Class E airspace area extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Dodge City, KS, as published in the Federal Register on Tuesday, October 19, 2004, (69 FR 61439) [FR Doc. 04-23387] is corrected as follows:
