14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. 97-ACE-05]


Removal of Class D Airspace, Marshall Army Airfield, Ft. Riley, 
KS

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Direct final rule; confirmation of effective date.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action confirms the effective date of a direct final rule 
which removed the Class D airspace area at Marshall Army Airfield, Ft. 
Riley, Kansas. The control tower at Marshall Army Airfield is not in 
operation and will not be operational in the foreseeable future.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The direct final rule published at 62 FR 17052 became 
effective 0901 UTC July 17, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kathy Randolph, Air Traffic Division, 
Airspace Branch, ACE-520C, Federal Aviation Administration, 601 East 
12th Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64106; telephone (816) 426-3408.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published this direct final rule 
with a request for comments in the Federal Register on April 9, 1997 
(62 FR 17052). 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, was received within the comment period, the regulation would 
become effective on July 17, 1997. No adverse comments were received, 
and thus this document confirms that the direct final rule became 
effective on that date.

    Issued in Kansas City, MO, on October 23, 1997.

Acting Manager, Air Traffic Division, Central Region.
