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

SUMMARY: This document confirms the effective date of a direct final

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published this direct final rule

with a request for comments in the Federal Register on April 20, 1999

(64 FR 19263). Due to an administrative error the Direct final rule;

confirmation of effective date was not published in the Federal

Register prior to the effective date of July 15, 1999. This document

confirms the effective date amending the Class E airspace at Rock

Rapids, IA. 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

comments, or a written notice of intent to submit such an adverse

comment, were received within the comment period, the regulation would

become effective on July 15, 1999. No adverse comments were received,

and thus this notice confirms that this direct final rule became

effective on that date.

Issued in Kansas City, MO, on July 27, 1999.

Donovan D. Schardt,

Acting Manager, Air Traffic Division, Central Region.
