Summary
This notice changes the dates of two fact-finding informal airspace meetings. The purpose of these meetings is to provide interested parties the opportunity to present views, recommendations, and comments on the planned modification to the Orlando Class B airspace area, and the Sanford, FL Class D airspace area.
Dates
The informal airspace meetings originally were scheduled for Wednesday, February 17; and Thursday, February 18, 1999. However, due to the high level of public interest in these meetings, the FAA finds that it is necessary to reschedule the meeting dates. The public meetings will take place on Wednesday, January 27, and Thursday, January 28, 1999, starting at 7:00 p.m. Comments must be received on or before February 26, 1999.
Addresses
Meetings: On January 27, 1999, the meeting will be at the A.K. Shumaker Terminal Building, Suite 200 Conference Room, Orlando- Sanford International Airport, Sanford, FL. On January 28, 1999, the meeting will be at Kissimmee Municipal Airport Terminal Building, 301 N. Dyer Blvd., Kissimmee, FL. Comments: Send or deliver comments on the proposal in triplicate to: Manager, Air Traffic Division, ASO-500, Federal Aviation Administration, 1701 Columbia Ave., College Park, GA 30337.
For Further Information Contact
Nancy Shelton, Air Traffic Division, ASO-500, FAA, Southern Regional Office, telephone (404) 305-5585.
Supplementary Information
The FAA recognizes that it is providing less than the standard 60-days' notice of the meeting dates. The FAA will follow all special notification procedures, including sending notices of the meeting dates to all known licensed pilots, airport managers/ operators, and operators of parachute, sailplane, ultralight, and balloon clubs within a 100-mile radius of the Orlando-Sanford International Airport. In addition, the FAA will provide notice of the meeting dates to the local newspapers.
Meeting Procedures
The following procedures will be used to facilitate the meeting: (a) The meetings will be informal in nature and will be conducted by a representative of the FAA Southern Region. Representatives from the FAA will present a formal briefing on the proposed changes to the Class B airspace area. Each participant will be given an opportunity to deliver comments or make a presentation at the meetings. (b) The meetings will be open to all persons on a space-available basis. There will be no admission fee or other charge to attend and participate. (c) Any person wishing to make a presentation to the FAA panel will be asked to sign in and estimate the amount of time needed for such presentation. This will permit the panel to allocate an appropriate amount of time for each presenter. (d) The meetings will not be adjourned until everyone on the list has had an opportunity to address the panel. (e) Position papers or other handout material relating to the substance of the meetings will be accepted. Participants wishing to submit handout material should present three copies to the presiding officer. There should be additional copies of each handout available for other attendees. (f) The meetings will not be formally recorded. However, a summary of the comments made at the meetings will be filed in the docket.
