AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

SUMMARY: This action corrects a final

rule published in the Federal Register

on June 7, 2000 (65 FR 36060). In that

rule, the legal description of the San

Francisco, CA, Class B airspace, Area E,

contained an inadvertent error that

failed to exclude airspace within the

Travis Air Force (AFB) approach control

area. This action corrects that error.

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 11, 2000.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 7,

2000, Airspace Docket No. 97–AWA–1,

FR Doc. 00–14046, was published

amending the legal description of the

San Francisco, CA, Class B airspace

area. This rule included a legal

description of the San Francisco, CA,

Area E airspace that included a small

area within the Travis AFB approach

control area, which should have been

omitted. This action excludes that

airspace from the San Francisco Class B

airspace area, thereby correcting this

error.
