AGENCY:

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION:

Final rule; withdrawal.

SUMMARY:

This action withdraws the final rule published in the Federal Register on October 26, 2020. In that action, the FAA amends VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal airways V-5 and V-178 in the vicinity of New Hope, KY, and removes V-513 in its entirety due to the planned decommissioning of the VOR portion of the New Hope, KY, VOR/Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME) navigation aid. The FAA has determined that withdrawal of the final rule is warranted since there has been a change in the date for the decommissioning of the New Hope, KY, VOR.

DATES:

Effective date 0901 UTC, November 16, 2020, the final rule published October 26, 2020 (85 FR 67649), is withdrawn.
