    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    History

    The FAA published a final rule in the Federal Register on July 18, 2024 (89 FR 58262) for Docket No. FAA-2024-0383, updating the Class D airspace for Fort Liberty, NC, by excluding 1,400 feet MSL from the vertical limits (previously “including”), updating the airport's geographic coordinates, replacing “Notice to Airmen” with “Notice to Air Missions” in the description, and updating the reference to “Chart Supplement” (previously “Airport Facility Directory”). After publication, the FAA found updates to the FAA's database rendering the Airport Reference Point (ARP) data incorrect, which, as dependent upon the ARP, rendered other airspace description information incorrect. This action corrects these errors.

    Correction to the Final Rule

    In FR Doc 2024-15483 at 58262, published in the Federal Register on July 18, 2024, the FAA makes the following corrections:

    On page 58263, in the second column, correct the ASO NC D description for Fort Liberty, NC, to read as follows:

    ASO NC D Simmons AAF, NC [Corrected]

    Simmons AAF, NC

    (Lat. 35°07′56″ N, long. 78°56′07″ W)

    That airspace extending upward from the surface to but not including 1,400 feet MSL within a 3.9-mile radius of Simmons AAF, excluding the portion northwest of a line extending from lat. 35°11′48″ N, long. 78°55′35″ W; to lat. 35°06′19″ N, long. 79°00′27″ W, excluding the portion within the Fayetteville, NC, Class C airspace area. This Class D airspace area is effective during the specific dates and times established in advance by a Notice to Air Missions. The effective date and time will thereafter be continuously published in the Chart Supplement.

    Issued in College Park, Georgia, on August 12, 2024
