 OLSEN   v. US                                              3

     Before LOURIE, CHEN, and STARK, Circuit Judges.
 PER CURIAM.
                         ORDER
     The appellants move unopposed to lift the stay and re-
 mand to the United States Court of Federal Claims for ad-
 ditional proceedings in light of this court’s decision in
 Milton v. United States, Appeal Nos. 2021-1131 et al.,
 which involved a similar challenge to a Court of Federal
 Claims’ decision dismissing takings claims predicated on
 flooding that occurred when the Army Corps of Engineers
 opened floodgates during Hurricane Harvey.
    Upon consideration thereof,
    IT IS ORDERED THAT:
     (1) The motion is granted. The stay is lifted, and the
 case is remanded to the Court of Federal Claims for further
 proceedings consistent with Milton.
    (2) Each side shall bear its own costs.
                                   FOR THE COURT
