## Abstract

In July 1997, EPA promulgated new use designations for five water bodies in the State of Idaho, including the designation of cold water biota for Shields Gulch. On March 14, 2000 the U.S. District Court for the District of Idaho vacated and remanded that portion of the EPA rule designating Shields Gulch for cold water biota uses to the EPA for further consideration. To conform with the U.S. District Court order, EPA is withdrawing the cold water biota designated use for Shields Gulch.
