ACTION:  Rescind Notice of Intent to prepare an environmental impact 
statement.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The FHWA is issuing this notice to advise the public that we 
are rescinding the Notice Of Intent (NOI) to prepare an environmental 
impact statement (EIS) for improvements that were proposed to the 
transportation system in St. Francois County, Missouri.

Department of Transportation, PO Box 160, Sikeston, Missouri, 63801; 
Telephone: (573) 472-5333.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FHWA, in cooperation with the Missouri 
Department of Transportation (MoDOT), is rescinding the NOI to prepare 
an EIS for a project that had been proposed to improve the 
transportation system in St. Francois County, Missouri. The NOI is 
being rescinded because MoDOT lacks funding to build this project. They 
do not want to concentrate their efforts on completing an EIS for a 
project which may not be built for 20 years, at which time the EIS 
would need to be reevaluated.
