[Docket No. 27641; Amendment No. 21-75]
RIN 2120-AG39


Primary Category Seaplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Direct final rule; confirmation of effective date.

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

SUMMARY: This action confirms the effective date of a rule, published 
on November 25, 1997, which established a maximum weight limit of 3,375 
pounds for seaplanes that are proposed for type certification in the 
primary category.

EFFECTIVE DATE: February 23, 1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Brian A. Yanez, Certification 
Procedures Branch (AIR-110), Aircraft Certification Service, Federal 
Aviation Administration, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 
20591, telephone (202) 267-9588.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published the direct final rule with 
a request for comments in the Federal Register on November 25, 1997 (62 
FR 62805). The FAA uses the direct final rulemaking procedure for a 
non-controversial rule where the FAA believes there will be no adverse 
public comment. The 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 February 23, 1998. No adverse comments were 
received, and thus this document confirms that the final rule will 
become effective on that date.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on February 3, 1998.
Donald P. Byrne,
Assistant Chief Counsel for Regulations.
