WASHINGTON, May 16 (Reuters) - The Federal Aviation

Administration said Friday it plans to announce proposed

temporary cuts to flights at Newark after meetings with major

U.S. airlines to address congestion impacts from runway

construction, equipment and staffing issues.

The FAA held three days of one-on-one meetings with the

airlines "to find a balance between reducing their operations at

the airport and meeting the needs of each individual airline."

The FAA plans to make a final determination on arrival rates on

or after May 28.
