Modification of Class E Airspace; Wichita Mid-Continent Airport, KS

AGENCY:

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION:

Direct final rule; confirmation of effective date.

This document confirms the effective date of a direct final rule which revises Class E airspace at Wichita Mid-Continent Airport, KS.

EFFECTIVE DATE:

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Kathy Randolph, Air Traffic Division, Airspace Branch, ACE-520C, DOT Regional Headquarters Building, Federal Aviation Administration, 901 Locust, Kansas City, MO 64106; telephone: (816) 329-2525.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The FAA published this direct final rule with a request for comments in the

Federal Register

on July 15, 2003 (68 FR 41691). The FAA subsequently published a correction to this direct final rule, revising the Wichita McConnell Air Force Base airport reference point, on August 21, 2003 (68 FR 50468). 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 October 30, 2003. No adverse comments were received, and thus this notice confirms that this direct final rule will become effective on that date.

Issued in Kansas City, MO on August 21, 2003.

Paul J. Sheridan,

Acting Manager, Air Traffic Division, Central Region.
