14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 96-ASW-36]


Revision of Class E Airspace; Weslaco, TX

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Direct final rule; confirmation of effective date.

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

SUMMARY: This action revises the Class E airspace at Mid Valley 
Airport, Weslaco, TX. A new Global Positioning System (GPS) Standard 
Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) to Runway (RWY) 13 has made this 
rule necessary. This action is intended to provide adequate Class E 
airspace for aircraft executing the GPS SIAP to RWY 13 to contain 
Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at Mid Valley Airport, 
Weslaco, TX.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, September 11, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Donald J. Day, Airspace Branch, Air Traffic Division, Southwest Region, 
Federal Aviation Administration, Fort Worth, TX 76193-0520, telephone: 
817-222-5593.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published this direct final rule 
with a request for comments in the Federal Register on May 1, 1997 (62 
FR 23653). 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 September 11, 1997. No adverse comments were 
received, and thus this action confirms that this final rule will be 
effective on that date.

    Issued in Fort Worth, TX, on July 7, 1997.

Acting Manager, Air Traffic Division, Southwest Region.
