SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

The rule modifying Class D and E airspace for Stanly County Airport, Albemarle, NC, published in the Federal Register May 6, 2009 (74 FR 20869), became effective August 27, 2009. Subsequent to the effective date of the rule, the FAA found that the True bearing in the Class D description for Stanly County Airport was stated incorrectly. This action corrects that error.

Correction

Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the reference to FAA Order 7400.9 for FR Doc. E9-10397, FAA Airspace Docket No. 09-ASO-12, as published in the Federal Register May 6, 2009 (74 FR 20869), is corrected as follows:

On page 20870, column two, line 38, amend the language to read

71.1

[Amended]

* * * * *

“* * * 037° bearing from Stanly County Airport to 7.8 miles northeast.”

Confirmation of Effective Date

The FAA published this direct final rule with a request for comments modifying Class D and E airspace, Albemarle, NC in the Federal Register on May 6, 2009 (74 FR 20869), Docket No. FAA-2009-0203; Airspace Docket No. 09-ASO-12. The FAA uses the direct final rulemaking procedure for a non-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 August 27, 2009. No adverse comments were received, and thus this notice confirms that effective date.
