SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On April 7, 2015, the FAA published a final rule; technical 
amendment in the Federal Register that made a correction to a 
typographical error to R-6703A, R-6703B, R-6703C, R-6703D, R-6703E and 
R-6703F at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, WA (80 FR 18519). Subsequent to 
publication, it was discovered that the longitude direction for R-6703A 
was entered as N (north) instead of W (west). The error creates an 
invalid geographical boundary for R-6703A. This correction replaces the 
abbreviation ``N'' with ``W'' in the longitude data for R-6703A.

Correction to Final Rule; Technical Amendment

    Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the 
boundary description of restricted area R-6703A, Joint Base Lewis-
McChord, WA, as published in the Federal Register on April 7, 2015 (80 
FR 18519) (FR Doc. 2015-08005) is corrected to read as follows:

Sec.  73.67  [Amended]

* * * * *

R-6703A Joint Base Lewis-McChord, WA [Corrected]
