40 CFR Part 52

[ME61-7010c; A-1-FRL-6366-9]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Maine; Approval of Fuel Control Program Under Section 211(c)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Direct final rule; withdrawal.

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

SUMMARY: On May 14, 1999, EPA published a direct final rule (64 FR 
26306) approving, and an accompanying proposed rule (64 FR 26352) 
proposing to approve, a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision 
submitted by the State of Maine on March 10, 1999. This revision 
establishes and requires that all gasoline sold in York, Cumberland, 
Sagadahoc, Androscoggin, Kennebec, Knox and Lincoln counties meet 
certain summertime volatility limits, as measured by the Reid Vapor 
Pressure (RVP). We are withdrawing this final rule due to adverse 
comment received from the Oxygenated Fuels Association. In a subsequent 
final rule, we will summarize and respond to any comments received and 
take final rulemaking action on this requested Maine SIP revision.

DATES: As of June 28, 1999, we withdraw the direct final rulemaking 
published on May 14, 1999.
