14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 98-ANE-95]


Amendment to Class E Airspace; Rockland, ME

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Direct final rule; confirmation of effective date.

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

SUMMARY: This notice confirms the effective date of a direct final rule 
which revises the Class E airspace area at Rockland, ME, due to the 
relocation of the Sprucehead Non-Directional Beacon (NDB) and to 
provide adequate controlled airspace for two new standard instrument 
approaches to the Rockland, Knox County Regional Airport (KRKD).

EFFECTIVE DATE: The direct final rule published at 63 FR 71218 and 
corrected to read as published at 64 FR 3835, is effective 0901 UTC, 
January 28, 1999.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David T. Bayley, Air Traffic Division, 
Airspace Branch, ANE-520.3, Federal Aviation Administration, 12 New 
England Executive Park, Burlington, MA 01803-5299; telephone (781) 238-
7523; fax (781) 238-7596.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published this direct final rule 
with a request for comments in the Federal Register on December 24, 
1998 (63 FR 71218), and published a correction on January 26, 1999 (64 
FR 3835). 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 January 28, 1999. No adverse comments were 
received, and thus this notice confirms that this direct final rule 
became effective on that date.

    Issued in Burlington, MA, on February 2, 1999.

Manager, Air Traffic Division, New England Region.
