The Direct Final Rule Procedure

    The FAA anticipates that this regulation will not result in adverse

adverse or negative comment is received within the comment period, the 
regulation will become effective on the date specified above. After the

is determined that this final rule does not have federalism

    The FAA has determined that this regulation is non-controversial 
and unlikely to result in adverse or negative comments. For the reasons 
discussed in the preamble, I certify that this regulation (1) is not a 
``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866; (2) is 
not a ``significant rule'' under Department of Transportation (DOT) 
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); 
and (3) if promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact, 
positive or negative, on a substantial number of small entities under 
the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
