submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for 
the approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no relevant 
adverse comments are received in response to this action, no further

comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public 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. The EPA will not institute a second comment period. 
Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at 
this time.
