SUMMARY: The Federal Transit Administration and Federal Highway

Transportation, Ferries Division (WSF), are rescinding the Notice of 
Intent (NOI) to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) that 
had been proposed to improve the ferry facilities at Seattle Ferry

in the Federal Register on March 17, 2006, at 71 FR 13892.

Federal Highway Administration, Washington Division, at (360) 753-9550;

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: After a lengthy cessation of work on the 
project described in the NOI found at 71 FR 13892, WSF reconsidered the 
project's purpose and need and the available resources. WSF has 
concluded the project it intended to pursue in 2006 will not be carried 
out in the foreseeable future. As such, the NOI is being rescinded.
