Notice To Rescind Notice of Intent To Prepare an Environmental 
Impact Statement, Middle Fork Popo Agie River Watershed, Fremont 
County, WY

AGENCY: Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS).

ACTION: Rescind notice of intent to prepare an Environmental Impact 
Statement for the Middle Fork Popo Agie River Watershed, Fremont 
County, Wyoming.

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

SUMMARY: The Natural Resources Conservation Service is issuing this 
notice to advise the public that we are rescinding the notice of intent 
(NOI) to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on a proposal 
to address recurring flooding impacts along the Middle Fork Popo Agie 
River in and near the city of Lander, Fremont County, Wyoming, which 
was issued in the Federal Register on November 26, 2002 (Volume 67, 
Number 228).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jay T. Mar, Assistant State 
Conservationist--Programs, Natural Resources Conservation Service, 100 
East B Street, Room 3124, P.O. Box 33124, Casper, Wyoming 82602-5011, 
telephone (307) 233-6757.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NRCS is rescinding the NOI to prepare an 
EIS for a project proposed to address recurring flooding impacts along 
the Middle Fork Popo Agie River in and near the city of Lander, Fremont 
County, Wyoming. The NOI is being rescinded because preliminary 
analysis of the proposed alternative indicates that impacts are likely 
not to be significant. NRCS has therefore determined an Environmental 
Assessment (EA) will be appropriate for this project.

    Dated: February 25, 2008.
Jay T. Mar,
Assistant State Conservationist--Programs.
