larger Class E airspace area in their

place designated Olathe, New Century

Aircenter, KS; and corrects the Airport

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March

5, 1998, the FAA published in the

Federal Register a direct final rule;

request for comments which revoked

the Class D and Class E airspace areas

at Olathe, Johnson County Industrial

Airport, KS; and established Class D and

Class E airspace areas at Olathe, New

Century Aircenter, KS, (FR Document

98–5697, 63 FR 10758, Airspace Docket

No. 98–ACE–5). An error was

subsequently discovered in the Airport

Reference Point Class E airspace

designations. After careful review of all

available information related to the

subject present above, the FAA has

determined that air safety and the

public interest require adoption of the

rule. The FAA has determined that this

correction will not change the meaning

of the action nor add any additional

burden on the public beyond that

already published. This action corrects

the error and confirms the effective date

of the direct final rule.

The FAA uses the direct final

rulemaking procedure for a noncontroversial 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

June 18, 1998. No adverse comments

were received, and thus this document

confirms that this direct final rule will

become effective on that date.

Correction

In rule FR Doc. 98–5697 published in

the Federal Register on March 5, 1998,

63 FR 10758, make the following

correction to the Olathe, New Century

Aircenter, KS, Class E airspace

14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 98–ACE–8]

Establish Class E Airspace; Atkinson,

NE

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration [FAA], DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This action establishes the

Class E airspace area at Atkinson, NE.

The development of a Global

Positioning System (GPS) Runway

(RWY) 29 Standard Instrument

Approach Procedure (SIAP) and a VHF

Omnidirectional Range/Distance

Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME) RWY

29 SIAP has made this rule necessary.

This action is intended to provide

adequate controlled airspace extending

upward from 700 feet Above Ground

Level (AGL) for Instrument Flight Rules

(IFR) operations at Stuart-Atkinson

Municipal Airport, Atkinson, NE.

EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901 UTC August 13,

1998.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

On March 25, 1998, a proposal to

amend part 71 of the Federal

Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to establish

Class E airspace area at Atkinson, NE,

was published in the Federal Register

(63 FR 14387). This proposal was to

establish controlled airspace extending

upward from 700 feet AGL. The

intended effect of the proposal was to

provide adequate Class E airspace to

contain aircraft executing GPS RWY 29

and VOR/DME RWY 29 SIAPs at StuartAtkinson Municipal Airport, Atkinson,

NE.

Interested parties were invited to

participate in this rulemaking

proceeding by submitting written

comments on the proposal to the FAA.

No comments objecting to the proposal

were received.

The Rule

This amendment to part 71 of the

Federal Regulations (14 CFR part 71)

establishes the Class E airspace area at

Atkinson, NE.

Class E airspace designations are

published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA

Order 7400.9E, dated September 10,

1997, and effective September 16, 1997,

which is incorporated by reference in 14

CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace

designation listed in this document will

be published subsequently in the order.

The FAA has determined that this

regulation only involves an established

body of technical regulations for which

frequent and routine amendments are

necessary to keep them operationally

current. Therefore, this regulation (1) is

not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’

under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not

a ‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT

Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44

FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3)

does not warrant preparation of a

Regulatory Evaluation as the anticipated

impact is so minimal. Since this is a

routine matter that will only affect air

traffic procedures and air navigation, it

is certified that this rule will not have

a significant economic impact on a

substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act.
