Due consideration was given to all relevant matter presented. The Air Transport Association objected to the establishment of this new restricted area on the basis that (1) it overlies portions of ? d::ra1 airway V-244 and jet route 3-80, (2) an effort should be r de to relocate the restricted area to the southwest to reduce the over - p of V-244 and J-tiO, and (3) a termination date should be evtablished for the restricted area. Approved For Release 2000/08/25: CIA-RD,P71 B00263R000200100034-0 Approved For Release 2000/08/25: CIA-RDP71 B00263R000200100034-0 Airspace Docket No. 67-WE-t4j 2 The Atomic Energy Commission is unable to predict a completion date for the test program; therefore, it is not feasible to establish a ter-:aination date for the restricted area. However, the FAA will closely monitor the progress of the test program and upon its completion, the restricted area will be revoked. The possibility of relocating the impact area 30 miles southward wws explored, however, extensive ground installations in R-4808 and associated activity precluded this possibil4,.ty. I T-ie actual closure periods for this restricted area should be brief and infrequent, an since the exact time of rocket firing is not critical and can readily be adjusted, there should be no significant interruption to air traffic on V-244 and Je-80. in consideration of the foregoing, Parts 71 and 73 of the Federal Aviation Regulations are amended, effective 0001 EST, August 17, 1967, as hereinafter set forth. 1. In ?71.151 (32 F.R. 2061) "R-4814A Tonopah, Nev." and "R-4814B Tonopah, Nev." are added. 2. In ?73.48 (32 F.R. 2317) Restricted Areas R-4814A and R-4814B at Tonopah, Nevada, are added as follows: Approved For Release 2000/08/25: CIA-RDP71 B00263R000200100034-0 Approved For Release 2000/08/25: CIA-RDP71 B00263R000200100034-0 L Airspace Docket No. 67-W'2-8 R-4814A 1onorah, Neva~.a Beginning at Lat. 37? 53' 00" N, Long. 116" 50' 15" W; thence clockwise via the are of a circle with a 27 statute mile radius centered at Lat. 370 47' 00" I?, Long. 116? 21' 30" W; to Lat. 37? 40' 30" N, Long. 1150 53' 00" W; to Lat. 37? 42' 00" N, Long. 115? 53' 00" W; to Lat. 370 42' 00" N, Long. 116? 11' 00" W; to Lat. 37? 53' 00" N, Long. 116? 11' 00" W; to point of beginning.
