Summary

This action proposes to amend Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface in Toccoa, GA, due to the decommissioning of the Foothills VHF Omnidirectional Range/Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME) and cancellation of the associated approaches at Toccoa RG Letourneau Field Airport. This action would also update the geographic coordinates of the airport, as well as Habersham County Airport. Controlled airspace is necessary for the safety and management of instrument flight rules (IFR) operations in the area.
