Subject: Soliciting Comments on Proposed Termination of Terminal
Aerodrome Forecast (TAF) at Talladega Municipal Airport, Talladega AL
(KASN) through May 3, 2025

NWS is proposing the termination of the TAF at Talladega, AL due to
overall decreased traffic outside of a few seasonal high traffic
events.  Seasonal TAF service will be provided as appropriate to
support high air traffic events in the Talladega area.For any
scheduled high air traffic event, a Public Information Statement
(PNS) that provides the effective TAF dates will be issued by WFO
Birmingham at least one month prior to each event.  The proposed
termination date for KASN TAF is on or before September 5, 2025 with
only seasonal TAF service provided after that date.
