SUMMARY: This action changes the effective date of a final rule 
published in the Federal Register of February 4, 2016, amending Class E 
Airspace designated as an extension at Ithaca Tompkins Regional 
Airport, Ithaca, NY; and the Kingston VORTAC, Poughkeepsie, NY. This 
correction updates the geographic coordinates of each navigation aid 
and Ithaca Tompkins Regional Airport (formerly Tompkins County 
Airport), under Class D airspace and Class E surface area airspace to 
coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database. Also, Dutchess County 
Airport is added to the Kingston VORTAC, Poughkeepsie, NY, designation 
in Class E airspace designated as an extension. The Kingston VORTAC 
reference is removed from the Class D airspace designation. This action 
also adds Class D airspace to the title of this rulemaking.

DATES: This correction is effective 0901 UTC, May 26, 2016, and the 
effective date of the rule amending 14 CFR part 71, published on 
February 4, 2016 (81 FR 5902), is delayed to 0901 UTC May 26, 2016. The 
Director of the Federal Register approves this incorporation by 
reference action under Title 1, Code of Federal Regulations, part 51, 
subject to the annual revision of FAA Order 7400.9 and publication of 
conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority for This Rulemaking

History

    The Federal Register published a final rule amending Class E 
Airspace Designated as an Extension at Ithaca Tompkins Regional 
Airport, Ithaca, NY, (formerly Tompkins County Airport), and the 
Kingston VORTAC, Poughkeepsie, NY (81 FR 5902, February 4, 2016) Docket 
No. FAA-2015-4532. Further review revealed the geographic coordinates 
for the airport and navaids needed to be amended in Class D airspace 
and Class E surface area airspace. It is also noted that the Kingston 
VORTAC is erroneously listed in Class D airspace for Poughkeepsie, NY, 
and is removed. Also, Class D Airspace is added to the title.
    Class D and Class E airspace designations are published in 
paragraphs 5000, 6002, and 6004, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9Z 
dated August 6, 2015, and effective September 15, 2015, which is 
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR part 71.1. The Class D and Class E 
airspace designations listed in this document will be published 
subsequently in the Order. These are administrative corrections and do 
not affect the controlled airspace boundaries or operating requirements 
supporting operations in the Ithaca and Poughkeepsie, NY areas.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.9Z, Airspace Designations and 
Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2015, and effective September 15,

air traffic service routes, and reporting points.
