correction.

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

SUMMARY: This document confirms the effective date of a direct final 
rule which revises the Class E airspace at Des Moines, IA, and corrects 
an error in the airspace designation for Des Moines International 
Airport as published in the direct final rule.

0901 UTC, May 20, 1999.

    This correction is effective on May 20, 1999.

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 19, 1999, the FAA published in 
the Federal Register a direct final rule; request for comments which 
revises the Class E airspace at Des Moines, IA (FR Document 99-1096, 64 
FR 2823, Airspace Docket No. 98-ACE-55). An error was subsequently 
discovered in the airspace designation for the Des Moines International 
Airport. 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 this correction will not change the meaning of the 
action nor add any additional burden on the public beyond that already 
published. This action corrects the airspace designation of the Des 
Moines International Airport 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 May 20, 1999. No adverse comments were received, 
and thus this notice confirms that this direct final rule will become 
effective on that date.
