History

The FAA published a direct final rule with request for comments in the Federal Register August 6, 2008 (73 FR 45607), Docket No. FAA-2008-0003. This rule established Class E airspace at Muldrow Army Heliport, Lexington, OK. The FAA uses the direct final rule procedure for non-controversial rules 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 an adverse comment, was received within the comment period, the regulation would become effective on September 25, 2008. No adverse comments were received; thus, this notice confirms that the direct final rule became effective on this date.

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40103, 40113, 40120; E.O. 10854, 24 FR 9565, 3 CFR, 1959-1963 Comp., p. 389.
