14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 99-ANE-92]


Establishment of Class E Airspace; Burlington, VT

AGENCY:  Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION:  Direct final rule; correction; confirmation of effective date.

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

SUMMARY:  This notice confirms the effective date of a direct final 
rule that establishes Class E airspace area at Burlington, VT (KBTV) to 
provide for adequate controlled airspace for aircraft executing 
instrument approaches to the Burlington International Airport at times 
when the Burlington Air Traffic Control Tower is closed. This action 
also corrects a typographical error in the docket number and changes 
the longitude and latitude of the Burlington International Airport to 
reflect North American Datum (NAD) 1983.

EFFECTIVE DATE:  The direct final rule published at 64 FR 68008 is 
effective 0901 UTC, February 24, 2000.

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) 238-7586; fax (781) 238-7596.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    The FAA published this direct final rule with a request for 
comments in the Federal Register on December 6, 1999 (64 FR 68008). 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 February 24, 2000. No adverse comments were received, and 
thus this notice confirms that this direct final rule will become 
effective on that date.
    This direct final rule also corrects the docket number for this 
action to 99-ANE-92. The docket number used for the publication of the 
direct final rule was previously used for another airspace action. That 
other action, however, was issued from FAA Headquarters, while this 
action was issued from the New England Region. Therefore, the FAA has 
determined that the error in the docket number caused no confusion to 
interested persons wishing to comment on this proposal and corrects the 
docket number in this action.
    Lastly, the longitude and latitude coordinates published in the 
direct final rule must be updated to reflect North American Datum (NAD) 
1983. The FAA has determined that neither of these corrections expands 
the scope of the direct final rule.

Correction to the Direct Final Rule

    Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the
