#  Proposed Amendment of Class E Airspace; Lexington, KY

**AGENCY:**

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

**ACTION:**

Proposed rule; withdrawal.

**SUMMARY:**

This action withdraws the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) which proposed to amend the Class E airspace at Lexington, KY. The NPRM is being withdrawn as a result of the determination that additional Class E airspace to contain aircraft executing the Non-Directional Beacon (NDB) Runway 4 (RWY 4) Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) developed for Blue Grass Airport is not necessary, as the SIAP is fully contained within existing Class E airspace.

**DATES:**

This proposed rule is withdrawn as of November 9, 2000.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:**

Nancy Shelton, Manager, Airspace Branch, Air Traffic Division, Federal Aviation Administration, Docket No. 00-ASO-37, P.O. Box 20636, Atlanta, Georgia 30320, telephone: (404) 305-5586.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**

**The Proposed Rule**

On September 25, 2000, a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking was published in the *Federal Register* to amend Class E airspace at Lexington, KY, (65 FR 57568) to provide adequate controlled airspace to contain the NDB RWY 4 SIAP developed for Blue Grass Airport. The initial airspace review for Lexington, KY, determined the need for an airspace extension. However, a follow-up review determined the extension was not necessary.

**Conclusion**

In consideration of the aforementioned determination, action to amend the Lexington, KY, Class E airspace area is withdrawn.

**List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71**
