Even more NFDD updates for ZDC. I know some of these are not new
information, but there are a couple of new additions buried within:

BALTIMORE, MD:
134.5 LOW and 360.7 are added. Neither one will be shown on charts.

BENSON, VA:
132.275 and 363.225 are ADDED. Both are HIGH and will not be charted.

HOPEWELL, VA:
121.875 and 363.225 are ADDED. Both are HIGH and will not be charted.
LAWRENCEVILLE, VA:
132.025 and 290.425 are ADDED. Both are LOW and will not be charted.

LEWISBURG, VA:
120.85 LOW will not be charted and will not be used for enroute use. It is
only for clearance at Greenbrier Valley airport. It moved from WHITE
SULPHUR SPRINGS to Lewisburg.

LEXINGTON PARK, MD:
133.9 and 281.4. Both are LOW and WILL appear on charts.

MARTINSBURG, WV:
132.275 and 379.3 are re-stated. Both are HIGH.

RICHMOND, VA:
132.95 and 285.55 are ADDED. Both are LOW and will not appear on charts.

SHIP BOTTOM, NJ:
121.025 LOW is ADDED and will not be charted.
127.025 HIGH and 254.3 HIGH are DELETED.
307.725 HIGH is ADDED and will not be charted.

SMYRNA, DE:
277.4 LOW is DELETED.
354.15 LOW is ADDED. Neither of these are for charting.

SNOW HILL, MD:
135.275 HIGH is ADDED
236.825 LOW is ADDED
256.8 LOW is DELETED
291.675 HIGH is ADDED. None of these are for charting.

WHALEYVILLE, VA:
120.75 is re-stated and is now HIGH altitude.
258.1 HIGH is DELETED. Not charted.
279.65 LOW is ADDED. Not charted.
317.725 HIGH is ADDED. Not charted.
323.0 LOW is DELETED

WILMINGTON, NC:

317.45 HIGH is ADDED but not charted.
That’s it from the NFDD for today.

A clarification seems in order. "Re-stated" is my terminology for when a
freq is mentioned in the NFDD but some other part of the information [like
sector altitude or usage] has changed. "Discrete" previously seemed to be a
freq that was more of a single-plane-to-controller rather than several
aircraft being on the frequency and had nothing to do with whether a freq
appeared on charts. I saw a mention within a FAA site somewhere that
"discrete" terminology was being phased out. Hope this explains.
