SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On April 7, 2015, the FAA published a final rule; technical amendment in the Federal Register that made a correction to a typographical error to R-6703A, R-6703B, R-6703C, R-6703D, R-6703E and R-6703F at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, WA (80 FR 18519). Subsequent to publication, it was discovered that the longitude direction for R-6703A was entered as N (north) instead of W (west). The error creates an invalid geographical boundary for R-6703A. This correction replaces the abbreviation ``N'' with ``W'' in the longitude data for R-6703A.

Correction to Final Rule; Technical Amendment

Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the boundary description of restricted area R-6703A, Joint Base Lewis-

McChord, WA, as published in the Federal Register on April 7, 2015 (80 FR 18519) (FR Doc. 2015-08005) is corrected to read as follows:

Sec. 73.67 Amended
