ACTION: Direct final rule; confirmation of effective date and correction. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This notice confirms the effective date of a direct final rule which revises Class D and Class E airspace at Topeka, Philip Billard Municipal Airport, KS, and corrects two errors in the airspace designation as published in the direct final rule. DATES: The direct final rule published at 63 FR 4378 is effective on 0901 UTC, April 23, 1998. This correction is effective on April 23, 1998. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kathy Randolph, Air Traffic Division, Airspace Branch, ACE-520C, Federal Aviation Administration, 601 East 12th Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64106; telephone: (816) 426-3408. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 29, 1998, the FAA published in the Federal Register a direct final rule, request for comments, which modified the Class D and Class E airspace at Topeka, Philip Billard Municipal Airport, KS (FR Doc. 98-2217, 63 FR 4378, Airspace Docket No. 97-ACE-36). Two errors were subsequently discovered in the Class E airspace designation. After careful review of all available information related to the subject presented above, the FAA has determined that air safety and the public interest require adoption of the rule. The FAA has determined that these corrections will not change the meaning of the action nor add any additional burden on the public beyond that already published. This action corrects those errors and confirms the effective date of the direct final rule. 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 advises 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 April 23, 1998. No adverse comments were received, and thus this notice confirms that this direct final rule will become effective on that date.
