AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Direct final rule; withdrawal.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On January 26, 1996 (61 FR 2423), the United States 
Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) approved Illinois' October 21, 
1993 and March 4, 1994, requests to incorporate rules to control 
volatile organic compounds in the Chicago Ozone nonattainment area and 
thereby complete the replacement of the federally promulgated Chicago 
Ozone Federal Implementation Plan with federally approved State adopted 
rules as a part of the Illinois State Implementation Plan (SIP). The 
USEPA is withdrawing this final rule due to the adverse comments 
received on these actions. In a subsequent final rule USEPA will 
summarize and respond to the comments received and announce final 
rulemaking action on this requested Illinois SIP revision.
