History

On June 6, 2013, the FAA published a final rule, in the Federal Register establishing Class E airspace at Upper Captiva Island Heliport, Captiva, FL, (78 FR 33967). Subsequent to publication, the FAA found that the effective date of June 27, 2013 did not allow sufficient time for coordination with FAA's aeronautical data charting service, thereby making this action necessary.

The Class E airspace designations are published in Paragraphs 6005 of FAA order 7400.9W, dated August 8, 2012, and effective September 15, 2012, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order.

Final Rule Delay of Effective Date

Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the effective date on Airspace Docket No. 12-ASO-19, for the establishment of Class E airspace at Upper Captiva Island Heliport, Captiva, FL, as published in the Federal Register of June 6, 2013, (78 FR 33967), FR Doc. 2013-13105, is delayed from June 27, 2013, to August 22, 2013.
