SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Confirmation of Effective Date

    The FAA published this direct final rule with a request for 
comments in the Federal Register on October 14, 2008 (73 FR 60622), 
Docket No. FAA-2008-0983; Airspace Docket No. 08-ASO-14. 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, were received 
within the comment period, the regulation would become effective on 
January 15, 2009. No adverse comments were received, and thus this 
notice confirms that effective date.
