DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE

Forest Service


Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, Evanston-Mountain View 
Ranger District; Utah; West Fork Smiths Fork Colorado River Cutthroat 
Trout Enhancement

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.

ACTION: Withdrawal of notice of intent to prepare an environmental 
impact statement.

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

SUMMARY: The Evanston-Mountain View Ranger District of the Uinta-
Wasatch-Cache National Forest (Forest) is withdrawing the Notice of 
Intent (NOI) to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the 
West Fork Smiths Fork Colorado River Cutthroat Trout Enhancement 
project. The original NOI was published in the Federal Register on 
August 25, 2017. No significant issues were identified during the 
scoping period or any other opportunity to comment. Upon further 
evaluation, the responsible official has determined that the proposed 
action fits within an identified categorical exclusion (CE); there are 
no extraordinary circumstances; and the action would not have 
significant effects to the human environment. As a result, the Forest 
is withdrawing its intent to prepare an EIS and is now preparing a CE. 
All comments previously received regarding this project will be 
retained and considered in the development of the CE.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Questions concerning withdrawal of the 
NOI should be addressed to Paul Chase, Fisheries Biologist, at the 
following address: Logan Ranger District, Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National 
Forest, 1500 E Highway 89, Logan, UT 84321; via phone at 435-755-3692; 
or via email at [email protected]. Individuals and organizations that 
previously submitted comments on this project will remain on the 
project mailing list.
    Individuals who use telecommunication devices for the deaf (TDD) 
may call the Federal Information Relay Service (FIRS) at 1-800-877-8339 
between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m., Eastern Time, Monday through Friday.
