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 February 19, 1998, the FAA published in 
the Federal Register a direct final rule; request for comments, which 
modified Class E airspace at Topeka, Forbes Field, KS (FR Document 98-
3968, 63 FR 8342, Airspace Docket No. 98-ACE-1). 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 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 June 18, 1998. No adverse comments were received, 
and thus this document confirms that this direct final rule will become 
effective on that date.
