    AGENCY:

    Forest Service, USDA.

    ACTION:

    Notice of Withdrawal.

    SUMMARY:

    In the Tuesday, September 11, 2012 Federal Register (FR) Vo. 77, No. 176, pages 55796-55798, the Forest Service announced its intention to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act, 42 U.S.C. 4321 (NEPA) to improve water quality and reduce soil loss on the Daniel Boone National Forest. The draft environmental impact statement expected in December 2012 was not completed. The Forest Service withdraws the Notice of Intent to prepare an EIS because public involvement discussions revealed a need for additional collaboration. This withdrawal does not preclude future proposals for Forest Service management within the project area.

    DATES:

    This action is effective upon publication in the Federal Register.
