40 CFR Part 52

[PA-4135a; FRL-7084-4]


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 6, 2001 (66 FR 46525), EPA stated that if it received adverse 
comment by October 9, 2001, the rule would be withdrawn and not take 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 6, 2001 (66 FR 46573). EPA will not 
institute a second comment period on this action.

DATES: The direct final rule is withdrawn as of October 17, 2001.
