SUMMARY: Due to the receipt of an adverse comment, the Environmental

rule approving the redesignation of the Muncie nonattainment area to 
attainment for the 2008 national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) 
for lead, the state's plan for maintaining the 2008 lead NAAQS through 
2030 for the area, and the 2013 attainment year emissions inventory for 
the area.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the direct final rule, EPA stated that if 
adverse comments were submitted by June 29, 2017, the rule would be 
withdrawn and not take effect. EPA received an adverse comment prior to 
the close of the comment period and, therefore, is withdrawing the 
direct final rule. EPA will address the comment in a subsequent final 
action based upon the proposed action also published on May 30, 2017. 
EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action.
