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

SUMMARY: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Detroit District, is 
issuing this notice to advise Federal, state, and local government 
agencies and the public that the USACE is withdrawing its Notice of 
Intent to prepare a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for the 
reevaluation study of flood risk management alternatives for the North 
Branch Ecorse Creek, Wayne County, Michigan.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Charles Uhlarik, Chief, Environmental 
Analysis Branch, at (313) 226-2476 or by mail at U.S. Army Corps of 
Engineers, Detroit District; 477 Michigan Avenue, 6th Floor; Detroit, 
MI 48226-2550.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Corps of Engineers published a notice of 
intent to prepare a DEIS in the September 24, 2010, issue of the 
Federal Register (75 FR 58369). Since that time, scoping comments and 
public meetings, a Draft U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Coordination 
Act Report, an Environmental Assessment (EA), and agency/public review 
of the EA did not reveal any significant impacts on the human 
environment. Therefore, the Detroit District, Corps of Engineers, is no 
longer considering preparation of a Draft Environmental Impact 
Statement for the North Branch Ecorse Creek, Flood Risk Management 
General Reevaluation Study.

Project Manager.
