[Airspace Docket No. 00-ASO-37]


Proposed Amendment of Class E Airspace; Lexington, KY

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Proposed rule; withdrawal.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action withdraws the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) 
which proposed to amend the Class E airspace at Lexington, KY. The NPRM 
is being withdrawn as a result of the determination that additional 
Class E airspace to contain aircraft executing the Non-Directional 
Beacon (NDB) Runway 4 (RWY 4) Standard Instrument Approach Procedure 
(SIAP) developed for Blue Grass Airport is not necessary, as the SIAP 
is fully contained within existing Class E airspace.

DATES: This proposed rule is withdrawn as of November 9, 2000.

Branch, Air Traffic Division, Federal Aviation Administration, Docket

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Proposed Rule

    On September 25, 2000, a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking was 
published in the Federal Register to amend Class E airspace at 
Lexington, KY, (65 FR 57568) to provide adequate controlled airspace to 
contain the NDB RWY 4 SIAP developed for Blue Grass Airport. The 
initial airspace review for Lexington, KY, determined the need for an 
airspace extension. However, a follow-up review determined the 
extension was not necessary.

Conclusion

    In consideration of the aforementioned determination, action to 
amend the Lexington, KY, Class E airspace area is withdrawn.
