SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Reason for Withdrawal

    The FAA published a NPRM in the Federal Register for Docket No. 
FAA-2023-1299 (88 FR 39204; June 15, 2023). The NPRM proposed to amend 
VOR Federal Airway V-469; and to revoke VOR Federal Airways V-164, V-
423, and V-576; due to the planned decommissioning of the Williamsport, 
PA (FQM), VOR/DME; the Stonyfork, PA (SFK), VOR/DME; the Danville, VA 
(DAN), VOR; the Hancock, NY (HNK), VOR/DME; and the Delancey, NY (DNY), 
VOR/DME which provides navigation guidance for portions of the affected 
airways. Interested parties were invited to participate in this 
rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal. No 
comments were received. Subsequent to the NPRM, the Williamsport VOR/
DME decommissioning was delayed, and

other airway docket actions rendered this proposal unnecessary.

Conclusion

    The FAA determined that the NPRM published on June 15, 2023, is 
unnecessary. Therefore, the FAA withdraws that NPRM.
