SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On July 14, 2000, the FAA published in the Federal Register a 
direct final rule; request for comments which revises the Class E 
airspace at Atwood, KS (FR document 00-17870, 65 FR 43684, Airspace 
Docket No. 00-ACE-19). An error was subsequently discovered in the 
latitude of the Atwood NDB and the bearing in the airspace designation 
for Atwood-Rawlins County, City-County Airport. This action corrects 
those errors. 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 error in the Atwood NDB latitude 
and the airspace designation.
    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. The direct final rule; request for comments 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 November 30, 2000.

Correction to the Direct Final Rule; Request for Comments

    Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the 
airspace designation for Atwood-Rawlins County City-County Airport, as 
published in the Federal Register on July 14, 2000 (65 FR 43684), 
(Federal Register Document 00-17870; page 43686, column one) is 
corrected as follows:

Sec. 71.1  [Corrected]

ACE KS E5 Atwood, KS  [Corrected]

    On page 43686, in the first column under Atwood NDB remove 
latitude 39 deg.50'20" N. and substitute 39 deg.50'19"

[[Page 48609]]

N., and in line five of the airspace designation, correct the 
airspace designation by removing ``258'' and adding ``358''.

    Issued in Kansas City, MO on July 27, 2000.

Manager, Air Traffic Division, Central Region.
