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

SUMMARY: The Forest Service published a notice of intent to prepare an 
environmental impact statement (EIS) for the Knox-Brooks Timber Sales 
and Road Rehabilitation project in the Federal Register (vol. 63, no. 
127, doc. no. 98-17665) on July 2, 1998. That notice of intent is 
revised to change the schedule for completion of the draft EIS.
    Forest Service Policy mandates that a revised Notice of Intent be 
filed when there is a delay of more than six months in filing the draft 
EIS. Originally the draft EIS was to be released in November of 1998 
and the final EIS in February of 1999. The draft EIS is now anticipated 
to be done in January of 2000 with the final EIS published in September 
of 2000.

DATES: This action is effective upon publication of this notice.

District, Box 460, Superior, MT 59872.
