SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Final Rules section of this Federal 
Register, EPA is publishing a direct final rule for this action without 
prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial 
action and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for 
the rule amendment is set forth in the direct final rule. If no adverse 
comments are received in response to this rule, no further activity is 
contemplated. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule 
will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in 
a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. EPA will not 
institute a second comment period on this document. Any parties 
interested in commenting on this document should do so at this time.
