ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[PA-4152a; FRL-7084-9]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Pennsylvania; VOC and NOX RACT Determinations for 14 Individual Sources 
Located in the Philadelphia-Wilmington-Trenton Area; Withdrawal of 
Direct Final Rule

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Withdrawal of direct final rule.

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

SUMMARY: Due to receipt of a letter of adverse comment, EPA is 
withdrawing the direct final rule approving revisions which establish 
reasonably available control technology (RACT) requirements for 
fourteen major sources of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and nitrogen 
oxides (NOX) located in the Philadelphia-Wilmington-Trenton 
ozone nonattainment area. In the direct final rule published on 
September 10, 2001 (66 FR 46953), EPA stated that if it received 
adverse comment by October 10, 2001, the rule would be withdrawn and 
not take effect. EPA subsequently received adverse comments from the 
Citizens for Pennsylvania's Future (PennFuture). EPA will address the 
comments received in a subsequent final action based upon the proposed 
action also published on September 10, 2001 (66 FR 46971). EPA will not 
institute a second comment period on this action.

DATES: The direct final rule is withdrawn as of October 17, 2001.
