SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
Federal Register Document 99-21039, Airspace Docket 99-AAL-6,
published on August 13, 1999, (64 FR 44114), revised the Class D and
Class E airspace areas at Lake Hood, Elmendorf AFB, and Merrill Field,
AK. The geographic descriptions for the Merrill Field Class D and Class
E are in error. The Class D and Class E descriptions incorrectly read
``. . . west along Tudor Road to the New Seward Highway, thence direct
to the Mouth of Fish Creek, thence direct to the Northern Lights Blvd
railroad bridge, thence direct to Point MacKenzie, . . .'' The Northern
Lights Blvd railroad bridge should be listed before the Mouth of Fish
Creek and the descriptions should read ``. . . west along Tudor Road to
the New Seward Highway, thence direct to the Northern Lights Blvd
railroad bridge, thence direct to the Mouth of Fish Creek, thence
direct to Point MacKenzie, . . .'' This action corrects these errors.
Correction to Final Rule
Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the
geographic descriptions listed for the Merrill Field Class D and Class
E as published in the Federal Register on August 13, 1999, (64 FR
44114), (Federal Register Document 99-21039, pages 44115-44116), is
corrected as follows:
