Each TRACON has responsibility for controlling specificallydefined and limited sections of "airspace." That responsibility involves ensuring that all aircraft enteringor departing the airspace are kept separated at safe distances.

 ATCMonitor.com - GETTING TO KNOW THE ATLANTA TERMINAL APPROACH CONTROL (TRACON)
TRACON controllers, as many as 50 of them in the largest installations, are responsible for airplanes during what many experts believe are the most critical phases of any flight - the initial climb after takeoff and the gradual descent prior to landing.
In reality, TRACON operators "view" what is happening in the skies around them via radar, video display screens, and paper "flight strips" which provide detailed, constantly updated information on each flight in their area in a standard, almost instantly digestible form.
In practice, under normal weather, visibility, and traffic conditions, TRACON controllers route incoming and outgoing aircraft via clearly defined arrival and departure corridors that have been compared to freeway on and off ramps.

 AOPA Online: Air Traffic Services Brief - Consolidated Terminal Radar Approach Control Facilities
Tracons are FAA facilities that house air traffic controllers who use radar displays and radios to guide aircraft approaching and departing airports generally within a 30- to 50-mile radius up to 10,000 feet, as well as aircraft that may be flying over that airspace.
Tracons provide radar service to aircraft in the terminal area during the arrival and departure phases of flight.
Though the dimensions vary, tracon airspace typically extends from 30 to 50 nautical miles and from the surface up to 10,000 feet mean sea level around the primary airport.

The goal at LAS TRACON is to ensure the most efficient use of airspace, reduce overall delays and provide the best possible service to customers.

 'Tracon': Air-Traffic Trauma   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Well, in "Tracon," Filippo Anselmi's breathless two-hour infiltration of the FAA's regional air traffic control building on Long Island, the solution is eminently bureaucratic: send in a suit to file a report.
"Tracon," short for Terminal Radar Approach Control, the name given to the control building, is a cross between journalistic expose and television drama; think of the bridge of the USS Enterprise, stranded in a concrete bunker off the Long Island Expressway.
"Tracon," with vivid snippets of dialogue, has the air of a well-made re-enactment; the play deserves a more polished production than the one by the Basic Theater, of which Anselmi is one of the founders.

It may have been a simple generator failure, but Friday night's hour-long shutdown of aircraft departing and arriving from Sea-Tac Airport is indicative of a much bigger issue, says the head of the local chapter of the air traffic controllers union.

Commercial power was restored the TRACON on Saturday, about 24 hours after the controllers had moved.
