Discussion

    On September 4, 1997, at 62 FR 46804, the EPA published the 
proposed National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for 
Polyether Polyols Production and provided a 60-day public comment 
period. Requests have been received to extend the public comment period 
beyond the 60 days originally provided. These requests have been made 
by businesses that will be affected by the rule. In consideration of 
these requests, the EPA is reopening the comment period by 30 days 
(until December 3, 1997), in order to give all interested persons the 
opportunity to comment fully.
