This manual provides guidance for airspace planning compliance with Federal Avia tion Administration (FAA) regulations, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) 42 U.S.C. Section (§) 4321, et. seq., and other environmental guidance to include the Air Force’s Planning Requirements in the Environmental Impact Analysis Process (PREIAP). Additionally, this document outlines the Director of Training and Readiness (AF/A3T) airspace review process as required by Title 32, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Section (§) 989.28, Airspace and Range Proposals, current edition.
This manual applies to the Department of the Air Force services (USAF and USSF), each Major Command (MAJCOM), and Direct Reporting Unit (DRU) functioning as the USAF/USSF component of a unified command, the NGB, AFR, and subordinate units.
This document has been substantially revised and must be completely reviewed. Major changes include: Updated paragraph on Airspace Regional Councils, formerly known as Regional Airspace Councils. Significant changes were made to Chapter 3, Processing Airspace Actions as well as paragraph 4.4 remotely piloted aircraft (RPA)/small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) Certificate of Waiver and Authorization. Chapter 5, Airspace Scheduling and Reporting, is added which includes annual Restricted Area and Military Operations Area utilization reporting
Paragraphs this edition names as changed:
Publications state their own changes on page 1 — behind a PDF the official host will not serve to a search engine. This is that section, verbatim. It describes the edition above, not every historical change.
These Code of Federal Regulations references appear in DAFMAN 13-201 but are not in the current CFR — checked against the eCFR structure API. A part can vanish because it was removed or reorganised, and some references are simply mistyped in the source publication. Either way the pointer is dead: verify before relying on it, and check every publication affected.

1 publication in 1 other community depend on this one, which Nuclear, Space & C2 owns. Each community inspects its own publications; a dependency that crosses communities is owned by nobody, which is why this list normally does not exist anywhere. Built from the publications' own citations, so it reflects what we have read.
If DAFMAN 13-201 changes, these are the documents that point at it. Extracted from the publications' own text, so it reflects what we have read, not a complete dependency map. Every publishing office validates its own document; nobody validates the seams between them.
Records in this branch carrying the same series and number — interim changes, guidance memoranda, and unit supplements. A copy stamped with one of these is a different document from the base publication.
