SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published this direct final rule

with a request for comments in the Federal Register on December 4, 1997

(62 FR 64151). 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 April 23, 1998. No adverse comments were received,

and thus this document confirms that this direct final rule will become

effective on that date.

Issued in Kansas City, MO on January 28, 1998.

Acting Manager, Air Traffic Division Central Region.
