SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    Federal Register Document 04-917, published on Thursday, January 
15, 2004, (69 FR 2996) modified Class E3 and Class E5 airspace areas at 
Springfield, MO. The modification enlarged the controlled airspace area 
around Springfield-Branson Regional Airport to provide proper 
protection of diverse departures, corrected discrepancies in the 
Springfield-Branson Regional Airport airport reference point, redefined 
the location of the Springfield collocated very high frequency omni-
directional radio range and tactical air navigational aid (VORTAC) and 
brought the legal descriptions of Springfield, MO, Class E airspace 
areas into compliance with FAA Order 7400.2E, Procedures for Handling 
Airspace Matters. However, the published comment period closing date 
did not provide sufficient time for public response.
    Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the 
response date to the Springfield, MO, Class E airspace areas, as 
published in the Federal Register on Thursday, January 15, 2004, (69 FR 
2996) [FR Doc. 04-917] is corrected as follows:
    On page 2296, Column 2, paragraph headed DATES, fourth line, change 
``January 27'' to read ``February 27.''

    Issued in Kansas City, MO, on January 21, 2004.
