This action sets forth the final determination by Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to decommission remote communications outlets (RCOs) used by Flight Service Stations within the conterminous United States, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. After consideration of public comments and the completion of additional safety analyses, FAA has revised its initial proposal and will decommission 674 RCOs, consisting of 504 RCOs and 170 VOR voice outlets, while retaining 262 outlets. This revised approach reflects a balance between modernization objectives and the continued availability of essential aeronautical services.
