Area 3 consists of 7 sectors. 3 low altitude sectors (7, 8, 9) that work traffic from the surface up to FL230, 3 high altitude sectors (17, 18, 19) that work traffic from FL240 and above and a super-high sector (32) that can be positioned above any of the high altitude sectors. Area 3 is primarily an arrival/departure area that works with M98. The majority of the traffic is either aircraft being sequenced for arrival from the south or west or departures from M98 to the south or west. Another daily responsibility is working traffic into and out of several small airports such as Willmar MN, Marshall MN, and Mankato MN as well as providing VFR flight following. The area is adjacent to and requires coordination with ZMP Areas 2, 4, and 5 as well as M98, RST, and ZAU.
