ignated as special use airspace. These

craft 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 bound-
aries described by geographic coordi-
nates 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.
