Agency
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Action
Partial withdrawal of direct final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
Due to an adverse comment, EPA is withdrawing the addition of a paragraph that was included as part of a direct final rule for the approval of revisions to the California State Implementation Plan. EPA published the direct final rule on May 4, 1999 (64 FR 23774), approving revisions of rules from the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). As stated in that Federal Register document, if adverse or critical comments were received by June 3, 1999, the rule would be withdrawn and it would not take effect. EPA subsequently received one adverse comment on one provision of that direct final rule and is withdrawing that provision. EPA will address the comment received in a subsequent final action in the near future. EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action.
Dates
The addition of 40 CFR 52.220(c)(254)(i)(D)(2) is withdrawn as of June 25, 1999.
