Proposed Rule (NPRM) Published 2026-02-13 91 FR 6807 View on federalregister.gov ↗

Abstract

This action proposes to establish Class E airspace area designated as an extension to a Class E surface area (Class E4 airspace area), modify Class E airspace area designated as a surface area (Class E2 airspace area), and revoke Class E airspace area extending upward from 700 feet or more above the surface (Class E5 airspace area) at Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport (TRM), Palm Springs, CA. These actions support the safe and efficient management of instrument flight rules (IFR) and visual flight rules (VFR) operations at the airport. Additionally, the FAA proposes administrative revisions to TRM's legal descriptions of the controlled airspace areas associated with TRM's to ensure consistency within the FAA's aeronautical database.
