7110.65R

identified in a published WRA Notice to Air Missions
(NOTAM).
b. WRAs. Airspace with defined dimensions and
published by a NOTAM, which is established to
support weather reconnaissance/research flights.
ATC services are not provided within WRAs. Only
participating weather reconnaissance/research
aircraft from the 53rd WRS and NOAA AOC are
permitted to operate within a WRA. A WRA may
only be established in airspace within U. S. Flight
Information Regions (FIR) outside of U. S. territorial
airspace.
c. A published WRA NOTAM describes the
airspace dimensions of the WRA and the expected
activities within the WRA. WRAs may border
adjacent foreign FIRs, but are wholly contained
within U.S. FIRs. As ATC services are not provided
within a WRA, non-participating aircraft should
avoid WRAs, and IFR aircraft should expect to be
rerouted to avoid WRAs.

3-5-9. Other Non-Charted Airspace Areas
a. Stationary or Moving Altitude Reservation
(ALTRV). A Stationary or Moving ALTRV is
announced vin airspace NOTAM issued by the
Central Altitude Reservation Facility (CARF) or
ARTCC. These announcements will appear in CARF
and/or ARTCC NOTAMS. This airspace ensures
non-participating IFR aircraft remain separated from
special activity. Non-participating VFR aircraft are
permitted to fly through the area but should exercise
vigilance.
b. ATC ASSIGNED AIRSPACE. Airspace of
defined vertical/lateral limits, assigned by ATC, for
the purpose of providing air traffic segregation
between the specified activities being conducted
within the assigned airspace and other IFR air traffic.
ATCAA locations and scheduled activation information can be found on the FAA SUA website; a
NOTAM will not be issued to announce the activation
of this airspace.
