Withdrawal of Direct Final Rule for Monitoring, Recordkeeping and 
Reporting Requirement Revisions to the Petroleum Refineries NESHAP

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Withdrawal of direct final rule.

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

SUMMARY: Due to an adverse comment, EPA is withdrawing the direct final 
rule for monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting requirement revisions 
to the Petroleum Refineries NESHAP. The EPA published the direct final 
rule on March 20, 1998 at 63 FR 13533-13541. As stated in that Federal 
Register document, if significant adverse comments were received by 
April 20, 1998, the rule would not become effective and notice would be 
published in the Federal Register. The EPA subsequently received 
adverse comments on that final rule. The EPA will address the comments 
received in a subsequent final action based on a companion proposed 
rule (63 FR 13587-13589). The EPA will not institute a second comment 
period on this document.

DATES: The direct final rule published at 63 FR 13533-13541 is 
withdrawn as of May 18, 1998.
