Hi Y'all;

I had to go back and check... If you have been cleared for an approach to a runway or there is only one active runway being published, then it is not needed to state the runway again...

from the book....

3-10-5 Landing Clearance
a. Issue landing clearance. Restate the landing runway whenever more than one runway is active, or an instrument approach is being conducted to a closed runway.
PHRASEOLOGY -
CLEARED TO LAND,
or
RUNWAY (designator) CLEARED TO LAND.
b. "USN NOT APPLICABLE." Inform the closest aircraft that is cleared to land, touch-and-go, stop-and-go, or unrestricted low approaches when there is traffic holding on the same runway.
EXAMPLE -
"Delta one, cleared to land. Traffic holding in position."
or
"Delta one, runway one eight, cleared to land. Traffic holding in position."
c. USA/USAF/USN. Issue surface wind when clearing an aircraft to land, touch-and-go, stop-and-go, low approach, or the option. Restate the landing runway whenever there is a possibility of a conflict with another aircraft which is using or is planning to use another runway.
PHRASEOLOGY -
WIND (surface wind direction and velocity), CLEARED TO LAND,
or
WIND (surface wind direction and velocity), RUNWAY (designator) CLEARED TO LAND.
NOTE -
A clearance to land means that appropriate separation on the landing runway will be ensured. A landing clearance does not relieve the pilot from compliance with any previously issued restriction.
