14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. 96-ACE-16]


Amendment to Class E Airspace, Hays, KS

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Direct final rule; confirmation of effective date.

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

SUMMARY: This rule amends the Class E airspace area at Hays Municipal 
Airport, Hays, KS. A review of Class E airspace revealed a need to 
increase the airspace area to contain Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) 
operations at Hays Municipal Airport. The effect of this rule is to 
provide additional controlled airspace for aircraft executing the 
Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAP) and for departing 
aircraft to transition into controlled airspace.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC March 27, 1997.

FOR FURHTER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kathy Randolph, Air Traffic Division, 
Operations Branch, ACE-530C, Federal Aviation Administration, 601 East 
12th Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64106: telephone Number (816) 426-
3408.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published this direct final rule 
with a request for comments in the Federal Register on October 30, 
1996, (61 FR 55882). 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 March 27, 1997. No adverse comments were received, 
and thus this notice confirms that this final rule will become 
effective on that date.

    Issued in Kansas City, MO on January 3, 1997.

Acting Manager, Air Traffic Division, Central Region.
