SFAR53 {SFAR 53, SFAR No. 53} Establishment of Warning Areas in the Airspace Overlying the Waters Between 3 and 12 Nautical Miles from the United States Coast {Removed effective March 1, 2002}
The airspace that is described in Subpart B and Subpart C of this part is designated as special use airspace. These parts prescribe the requirements for the use of that airspace.
(a) Special use airspace consists of airspace of defined dimensions identified by an area on the surface of the earth wherein activities must be confined because of their nature, or wherein limitations are imposed upon aircraft operations that are not a part of those activities, or both.
(b) The vertical limits of special use airspace are measured by designated altitude floors and ceilings expressed as flight levels or as feet above mean sea level. Unless otherwise specified, the word "to" (an altitude or flight level) means "to and including" (that altitude or flight level).
(c) The horizontal limits of special use airspace are measured by boundaries described by geographic coordinates or other appropriate references that clearly define their perimeter.
(d) The period of time during which a designation of special use airspace is in effect is stated in the designation.
(a) All bearings and radials in this part are true from point of origin.
(b) Unless otherwise specified, all mileages in this part are stated as statute miles.
This subpart designates restricted areas and prescribes limitations on the operation of aircraft within them.
No person may operate an aircraft within a restricted area between the designated altitudes and during the time of designation, unless he has the advance permission of
(a) The using agency described in § 73.15; or
(b) The controlling agency described in § 73.17.
(a) For the purposes of this subpart, the following are using agencies;
(1) The agency, organization, or military command whose activity within a restricted area necessitated the area being so designated.
(b) Upon the request of the FAA, the using agency shall execute a letter establishing procedures for joint use of a restricted area by the using agency and the controlling agency, under which the using agency would notify the controlling agency whenever the controlling agency may grant permission for transit through the restricted area in accordance with the terms of the letter.
(c) The using agency shall -
(1) Schedule activities within the restricted area;
(2) Authorize transit through, or flight within, the restricted area as feasible; and
(3) Contain within the restricted area all activities conducted therein in accordance with the purpose for which it was designated.
For the purposes of this part, the controlling agency is the FAA facility that may authorize transit through or flight within a restricted area in accordance with a joint-use letter issued under § 73.15.
(6) Include a chart of the area (of optional scale and design) depicting, if used, aircraft operating areas, flight patterns, ordnance delivery areas, surface firing points, and target, fan, and impact areas. After once submitting an appropriate chart, subsequent annual charts are not required unless there is a change in the area, activity or altitude (or flight levels) used, which might alter the depiction of the activities originally reported. If no change is to be submitted, a statement indicating "no change" shall be included in the report.

For Federal Register citations affecting these restricted areas, see the List of CFR Sections Affected in the Finding Aids section of this volume.
This subpart designates prohibited areas and prescribes limitations on the operation of aircraft therein.
No person may operate an aircraft within a prohibited area unless authorization has been granted by the using agency.
For the purpose of this subpart, the using agency is the agency, organization or military command that established the requirements for the prohibited area.
Editorial Note: Sections 73.87 through 73.99 are reserved for descriptions of designated prohibited areas. For Federal Register citations affecting these prohibited areas, see the List of CFR Sections Affected in the Finding Aids section of this volume.
