Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
West Virginia; Withdrawal of Direct Final Rule

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Withdrawal of direct final rule.

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

SUMMARY: Due to an adverse comment, EPA is withdrawing the direct final 
rule to redesignate the City of Weirton PM10 nonattainment area to 
attainment and approval of the maintenance plan. In the direct final 
rule published on October 27, 2004 (69 FR 62591), we stated that if we 
received adverse comment by November 26, 2004, the rule would be 
withdrawn and not take effect. EPA subsequently received an adverse 
comment. EPA will address the comment received in a subsequent final 
action based upon the proposed action also published on October 27, 
2004 (69 FR 62637). EPA will not institute a second comment period on 
this action.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The direct final rule is withdrawn as of December 20, 
2004.
