[Airspace Docket No. 96-ANE-22]


Establishment of Class E Airspace; Oxford, ME

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Direct final rule; suspension of effectiveness.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action establishes a Class E airspace area at Oxford, ME 
(K81B) to provide for adequate controlled airspace for those aircraft 
using the new GPS RWY 33 Instrument Approach Procedure to Oxford County 
Regional Airport.

EFFECTIVE DATE: Effective October 9, 1996, the direct final rule 
amendments published at 61 FR 42785 are suspended until 0901 UTC,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Administration, 12 New England Executive Park, Burlington MA 01803-
5299; telephone: (617) 238-7536; fax (617) 238-7596.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published this direct rule with a 
request for comments in the Federal Register on August 19, 1996 (61 FR 
42785). The FAA uses the direct final rulemaking procedure for a non-
controversial rule where the FAA believes that there will be no adverse 
public comment. This direct final rule advised the public that no 
adverse comments were anticipated, and that unless a written adverse 
comment, or a written notice of intent to submit such an adverse 
comment, were received within the comment period, the regulation would 
become effective on October 10. No adverse comments were received. 
However, this document suspends that rule until December 5, 1996, to 
allow additional time for the FAA to coordinate the establishment of 
this new Instrument Approach Procedure with other agencies. This final 
rule will become effective on December 5.

    Issued in Burlington, MA, on October 9, 1996.
David J. Hurley,
Manager, Air Traffic Division, New England Region.
