SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Collier County CSRM Study was initiated 
to investigate the feasibility of addressing storm and flood risks to 
vulnerable populations, property, infrastructure, and ecosystems along 
coastlines in Collier County, and develop and evaluate various 
alternatives aimed at managing those risks and increasing coastal 
resiliency against storm surge. Alternatives were formulated to address 
the full study scope in 2023. The time and cost to collect data and 
perform complex modeling required to properly identify a cost 
effective, viable solution led USACE to determine that current federal 
funding was insufficient to complete the analysis. USACE is therefore 
terminating this study and the preparation of the associated EIS, which 
was initiated by a NOI to Prepare an EIS in the Federal Register on 
July 9, 2024 (89 FR 56348).
