Action
Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM); withdrawal.
Summary
The FAA is withdrawing the NPRM published in the Federal Register on July 12, 2017, proposing to amend VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal airways V-16, V-31, V-93, V-157, V-213, and V-229 near Patuxent River, MD, due to the planned decommissioning of the Patuxent VOR/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) (PXT), Patuxent River, MD, in support of the FAA's VOR Minimum Operational Network (MON) program. Subsequent to the NPRM, the PXT VORTAC decommissioning has been delayed until a to-be-determined date. The FAA decided that additional planning is necessary to ensure a more efficient implementation and integration with other ongoing VOR MON program activities, and determined that withdrawal of the proposed rule is warranted.
