ACTION: Withdrawal of Immediate final rule.

SUMMARY: We are withdrawing the immediate final rule for Wisconsin: 
Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management Program 
Revision published on March 1, 2002, which approved changes to its 
hazardous waste program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery 
Act (RCRA). We stated in the immediate final rule that if we received 
written comments that oppose this authorization during the comment 
period, we would publish a timely withdrawal in the Federal Register. 
Subsequently, we received comments that oppose this action. We will 
address these comments in a subsequent final action based on the 
proposed rule also published on March 1, 2002, at 67 FR 9427.

DATES: As of April 22, 2002, we withdraw the immediate final rule

Specialist, U.S. EPA Region 5, DM-7J, 77 West Jackson Boulevard,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Because we received written comments that 
oppose this authorization, we are withdrawing the immediate final rule 
for Wisconsin: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management 
Program Revision published on March 1, 2002, at 67 FR 9406, which 
intended to grant authorization for revision to Wisconsin's hazardous 
waste program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). 
We stated in the immediate final rule that if we received written 
comments that oppose this authorization during the comment period, we 
would publish a timely notice of withdrawal in the Federal Register. 
Subsequently, we received comments that oppose this action. We will 
address all comments in a subsequent final action based on the proposed 
rule previously published on March 1, 2002, at 67 FR 9427. We will not 
provide for additional comment during the final action.
