14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 97-ANE-11]


Amendment to Class E Airspace; Nashua, NH, Newport, RI, 
Mansfield, MA, Providence, RI, and Taunton, MA

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Direct final rule; confirmation of effective date.

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

SUMMARY: This action confirms the effective date of the direct final 
rule which modifies the Class E airspace at Nashua, NH, Newport, RI, 
Mansfield, MA, Providence, RI, and Taunton, MA by removing from their 
descriptions references to Class E airspace areas removed by previous 
actions. The direct final rule is necessary to keep the descriptions of 
controlled airspace areas operationally current.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The direct final rule is effective on 0901 UTC, May 22, 
1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Raymond Duda, Operations Branch, ANE-
530.3, Federal Aviation Administration, 12 New England Executive Park, 
Burlington, MA 01803-5299; telephone: (617) 238-7533; fax (617) 238-
7596.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published this direct final rule 
with a request for comments in the Federal Register on March 7, 1997 
(62 FR 10425). 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 May 22, 1997. No adverse comments were received, 
and thus this document confirms that this final rule will become 
effective on that date.

    Issued in Burlington, MA, on April 28, 1997.

Assistant Manager, Air Traffic Division, New England Region.
