SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    The FAA published a final rule for Docket No. FAA-2026-9835 in the 
Federal Register (91 FR 66635; September 22, 2026), establishing Class 
E airspace at Northwestern Memorial Healthcare Heliport, DeKalb, IL. 
After publication of the final rule, an FAA database review noted that 
the incorrect state (OH) was used in the legal description. This final 
rule correction replaces the incorrect state with the correct state, 
IL. This correction represents a ministerial change. It does not change 
the airspace dimensions or operating requirements. Accordingly, the FAA 
finds good cause that recirculating the NPRM for notice and comment is 
unnecessary.

Correction to Final Rule

    Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the final 
rule for Docket No. FAA-2026-9835, as published in the Federal Register 
on September 22, 2026 (91 FR 66635; FR Doc. 2026-21563), is corrected 
as follows:
    On page 66636, in the second column, amend Paragraph 6005 ``Class E 
Airspace Areas Extending Upward From 700 Feet or More Above the Surface 
of the Earth.'' by revising the legal description for ``AGL IL E5 
DeKalb, IL'' to read as follows:

AGL IL E5 DeKalb, IL [Establish]

Northwestern Memorial Healthcare Heliport, IL
    (Lat. 41[deg]57'38'' N, long. 88[deg]43'18'' W)

    That airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface 
within a 6.3-mile radius of the Northwestern Memorial Healthcare 
Heliport.
