Default After !EGR, what do you do with the plug and wire?

I'm going to be doing this, but what do you do with the plug and wire? There's that one that comes out of the tubing along the fuel rail onto the EGR itself, and then another that runs off that plug down deep into the engine bay that has a eye on the water pump securing it. Where does this wire lead and what do you do with it and the plug after yanking the EGR?

No OBDII requires sniffer in NC that I am aware of. It's all plug/visual.

Tape it off/secure it to something/basically just let it hang there. You don't do anything with it. And don't disconnect the other wire you're talking about, which is the ac compressor wire.

I live outside of Charolette. My LS1 is in an '87, so all they do is a "tampering" inspection, so my emissions don't have to be functional, just appear that way.
