comments in the Federal Register on February 20, 2008 (73 FR 9183),

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 
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 5, 2008. No adverse comments were received, 
and thus this notice confirms that effective date.
