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

decommissioning of the Williamsport,
PA (FQM), VOR/DME; the Stonyfork,

section, the FAA is charged with
prescribing regulations to assign the use
of the airspace necessary to ensure the
safety of aircraft and the efficient use of

modify the National Airspace System as
necessary to preserve the safe and
efficient flow of air traffic.

expense or delay. The FAA may change
