DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
14 CFR Part 71
[Airspace Docket No. 96-ACE-11]
Amendment to Class E Airspace, Sioux City, IA
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration [FAA], DOT.
ACTION: Final rule; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This rule amends the Class E airspace area at Sioux Gateway
Airport, Sioux City, IA. The effect of this rule is to provide
additional controlled airspace for aircraft executing the new Standard
Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) at Sioux Gateway Airport and
departing aircraft to transition into controlled airspace. In addition,
this action corrects an inadvertent editorial error in the description
of Class E5 airspace, deletes the reference to the Gateway NDB and adds
the word Sioux to Gateway NDB in the Class 4 airspace that was
published in the Federal Register on August 6, 1996 (61 FR 40719),
Airspace Docket No. 96-ACE-11, Direct final rule, request for comments.
EFFECTIVE DATE: 0901UTC , January 31, 1997.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Kathy Randolph, Operations Branch, ACE-530C, Federal Aviation
Administration, 601 E. 12th St., Kansas City, MO 64106; telephone (816)
426-3408.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published this direct final rule
with a request for comments in the Federal Register on August 6, 1996
(61 FR 40719). 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 advises 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 January 31, 1997. No adverse comments were
received, and thus this notice confirms that this final rule will
become effective on that date. In addition, an error was discovered in
the description of Class E5 airspace and the word Sioux was omitted
from the Class E4 airspace. This action corrects that error.
Correction to Final Rule
