AGENCY:

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION:

Final rule; withdrawal.

SUMMARY:

A final rule was published in the Federal Register on August 19, 2024, revoking Class E surface airspace for Manchester Boston Regional Airport, Manchester, NH, as the overlying Class C airspace deemed the Class E surface airspace unnecessary. The FAA has determined that withdrawal of the final rule is warranted since this action was inconsistent with the associated notice of proposed rulemaking that referenced Class E surface airspace.

DATES:

The final rule published in the Federal Register on August 19, 2024 (89 FR 66988) is withdrawn as of November 4, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

The FAA published a final rule in the Federal Register (89 FR 66988, August 19, 2024) for Doc. No. FAA-2024-1361, revoking Class E surface airspace for Manchester Boston Regional Airport, Manchester, NH. After publication, the FAA found that this final rule revoked Class E surface airspace but referenced Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface. As a result, the final rule is being withdrawn.

The Withdrawal

In consideration of the foregoing, the final rule for Docket No. FAA-2024-1361 (89 FR 66988, August 19, 2024), FR Doc. 2024-18435, is hereby withdrawn.
