DATES: The proposed flood elevation determination published on October 16, 2007 at 72 FR 58598, the September 12, 2007 Physical Map Revision, and the November 1, 2007 to January 31, 2008 appeal period associated with the withdrawn proposed flood elevation determinations are withdrawn as of January 24, 2008. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: William R. Blanton, Jr., Chief, Engineering Management Branch, Mitigation Directorate, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street, SW., Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-3151 or e-mail bill.blanton@dhs.gov . SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On September 12, 2007, FEMA issued Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) through a Physical Map Revision to identify flood hazards along the Congaree River in the Unincorporated Areas of Richland County, South Carolina, hereafter referred to as “Richland County”. On October 16, 2007, FEMA published a proposed rule at 72 FR 58598, October 16, 2007 proposing flood elevation determinations along the Congaree River in Richland County. On October 17, 2007, FEMA issued a letter to the Chairman of the Richland County Council explaining that the appeal period for the proposed flood elevation determinations would begin on November 1, 2007 and end on January 31, 2008. The purpose of this Federal Register publication is to withdraw the proposed flood elevation determination published October 16, 2007 at 72 FR 58598 for the Unincorporated Areas of Richland County, South Carolina he Chairman of the Richland County Council explaining that the appeal period for the proposed flood elevation determinations would begin on November 1, 2007 and end on January 31, 2008. The purpose of this Federal Register publication is to withdraw the proposed flood elevation determination published October 16, 2007 at 72 FR 58598 for the Unincorporated Areas of Richland County, South Carolina. This document also provides notice that FEMA has withdrawn the September 12, 2007 Physical Map Revision and canceled the November 1, 2007 to January 31, 2008 appeal period associated with the withdrawn proposed flood elevation determinations. The reason for this withdrawal and cancelation is to address a federal district court's November 14, 2007 finding that the October 16, 2007 notice proposing new flood elevation determinations for the Congaree River in the unincorporated areas of Richland County did not comply with the Court's November 18, 2005 Order of Vacatur. FEMA intends to initiate a new revision and propose new flood hazard information; however, affected areas should utilize the effective flood hazard information, in Regulatory Classification. Since this notice withdraws a notice of proposed rulemaking, it is neither a proposed nor a final rulemaking and therefore is not within the scope of Executive Order 12866 of September 30, 1993, Regulatory Planning and Review, 58 FR 51735 or the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601-612.
