[Federal Register Volume 64, Number 16 (Tuesday, January 26, 1999)] [Rules and Regulations] [Pages 3833-3834] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 99-1559] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Part 71 [Airspace Docket No. 98-ANM-15] Amendment of Class E Airspace; Riverton, WY AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Direct final rule; confirmation of effective date. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The direct final rule published on October 30, 1998 (63 FR 58299) changed the Riverton, WY, Class E surface airspace legal description from part-time to continuous. The FAA commissioned an Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) at the Riverton Regional Airport which makes the airport eligible for continuous Class E surface airspace. EFFECTIVE DATE: The direct final rule published at 63 FR 58299 is effective 0901 UTC, 28 January, 1999. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dennis Ripley, ANM-520.6, Federal Aviation Administration, 1601 Lind Avenue S.W., Renton, Washington, 98055-4056; telephone number: (425) 227-2527. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA published the direct final rule with a request for comments in the Federal Register on October 30, 1998 (63 FR 58299). 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. The comment period ended November 30, 1998. 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 were received within the comment period, the regulation would become effective on January 28, 1999. No adverse comments were received, and thus this document confirms that the final rule will become effective on that date. [[Page 3834]] Issued in Seattle, Washington on January 13, 1999.
