Conditional Approval of Implementation Plan; Indiana; Withdrawal 
of Direct Final Rule

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Withdrawal of direct final rule.

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

SUMMARY: Due to adverse comments, the EPA is withdrawing the direct 
final rule which conditionally approved the revisions to Indiana's 
State Implementation Plan for the Prevention of Significant 
Deterioration provisions for attainment areas. In the direct final rule 
published on January 15, 2003 (68 FR 1970), EPA stated that if EPA 
receives adverse comments by February 14, 2003, the rule would be 
withdrawn and not take effect. EPA subsequently received adverse 
comments, and will address these comments in a subsequent final action 
based upon the proposed action also published on January 15, 2003 (68 
FR 1970). EPA will not institute a second comment period on this 
action.

EFFECTIVE DATE: This direct final rule is withdrawn as of March 3, 
2003.
