SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    The FAA published a final rule in the Federal Register (89 FR 
99700; December 11, 2024) for Docket FAA-2024-2440, which modified 
Class D and Class E airspace at Abbotsford Airport, Abbotsford, BC. 
Subsequent to publication, the FAA identified that line four of the 
Class D airspace legal description contained the incorrect geographic 
location for the Vancouver very high frequency omnidirectional range/
tactical air navigation (VORTAC). This action corrects the error by 
removing the reference to the Vancouver VORTAC and replacing it with 
``Point in Space B'' for description purposes.

Correction to the Final Rule

    In FR Doc 2024-29085 at 99702, published in the Federal Register on 
December 11, 2024, the FAA makes the following corrections:
