**AGENCY:**

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

This action withdraws the NPRM published in the *Federal Register* on December 20, 2013. In that action, the FAA proposed to establish Class E airspace at the Tucumcari VORTAC, Tucumcari, NM. The FAA has determined that withdrawal of the NPRM is warranted as a result of objections raised during the comment period.
