Proposed Amendment of V-221 and V-305 in the Vicinity of 
Bloomington, IN

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM); withdrawal.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is withdrawing the NPRM published in the Federal 
Register on June 26, 2020, proposing to amend VHF Omnidirectional Range 
(VOR) Federal airways V-221 and V-305 due to the planned 
decommissioning of the VOR portion of the Hoosier, IN, VOR/Tactical Air 
Navigation (VORTAC) in support of the FAA's VOR Minimum Operational 
Network (MON) program. Subsequent to the NPRM, the FAA reviewed the 
Hoosier VOR decommissioning project and determined additional planning 
meetings are necessary to ensure a more efficient implementation and 
integration with other ongoing program activities, and determined that 
withdrawal of the proposed rule is warranted.

DATES: Effective as of 0901 UTC, November 4, 2020, the proposed rule 
published June 26, 2020 (85 FR 38343), is withdrawn.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    The FAA published a NPRM in the Federal Register for Docket No. 
FAA-2020-0500 (85 FR 38343; June 26, 2020). The NPRM proposed to amend 
VOR Federal airways V-221 and V-305 in the vicinity of Bloomington, IN, 
due to the planned decommissioning of the VOR portion of the Hoosier, 
IN, VORTAC navigation aid 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.

FAA's Conclusions

    The FAA has reviewed the Hoosier VOR decommissioning project and 
determined that additional planning meetings are warranted to ensure a 
more efficient implementation and integration with other ongoing 
program activities; therefore, the NPRM is withdrawn.
