SUMMARY: NMFS is issuing this notice to advise Federal, state, and

Intent (NOI) to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Morgan Robinson, Lacey, WA (phone:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NMFS published a NOI in the Federal Register
on June 20, 2016 (81 FR 39911) to prepare an EIS in accordance with the
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to analyze the impacts on the
human environment resulting from the operation of salmon hatchery
programs in the Nooksack River Basin in Washington. NMFS hereby advises
the public of the rescission of this NOI. This change occurred because
the proposed hatchery and genetic management plans jointly submitted by
the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, the Lummi Nation, the
Nooksack Indian Tribe, the Upper Skagit Indian Tribe, and the Swinomish
Indian Tribal Community as co-managers were withdrawn since the NOI was
published.
Any future hatchery and genetic management plans submitted by the
above parties to NMFS will comply with the environmental review
requirements of NEPA.
Dated: January 8, 2024.

Chief, Endangered Species Division, Office of Protected Resources,
National Marine Fisheries Service.
