#  Amendment of Class E Airspace; Massena, NY

**AGENCY:**

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

**ACTION:**

Final rule, withdrawal.

**SUMMARY:**

This action withdraws the final rule published in the *Federal Register* on March 15, 2018. In that action, the FAA amended Class E surface airspace and Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Massena, NY. The FAA has determined that withdrawal of the final rule is warranted since there has been a change in the date for the decommissioning of the Massena collocated VHF omnidirectional range tactical air navigation (VORTAC).

**DATES:**

Effective 0901 UTC, April 6, 2018.
