AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Direct final rule; confirmation of effective date.

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

SUMMARY: This action revises the Class E airspace at Kirk Field,

Paragould, AR. A new Nondirectional Beacon (NDB) Standard Instrument

Approach Procedure (SIAP) to Runway (RWY) 04, and a new NDB SIAP to RWY

22 have made this rule necessary. This action is intended to provide

adequate Class E airspace to contain Instrument Flight Rules (IFR)

operations for aircraft executing the NDB SIAP to RWY 22 and the NDB

SIAP to RWY 04 at Kirk Field, Paragould, AR.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC, September 11, 1997.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published this direct final rule

with a request for comments in the Federal Register on May 1, 1997 (62

FR 23648). 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 September 11, 1997. No adverse comments were

received, and thus this action confirms that this final rule will be

effective on that date.

Issued in Fort Worth, TX, on July 7, 1997.

Acting Manager, Air Traffic Division, Southwest Region.
