Air Plan Approval; Wisconsin; Title V Operation Permit Program;
Withdrawal of Direct Final Rule
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Withdrawal of direct final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Due to the receipt of an adverse comment, the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) is withdrawing the July 31, 2019 direct final
rule approving updates and revisions to the Wisconsin Title V Operating
Permit Program. The revisions were submitted to update the title V
program for the first time since the final approval of the program in
2001 and to change the permit fee schedule for subject facilities. The
revisions consist of amendments to Chapter Natural Resources (NR) 407
Wisconsin Administrative Code, operation permits, Chapter NR 410
Wisconsin Administrative Code, permit fees, and Wisconsin statute
285.69, fee structure.
DATES: The direct final rule published at 84 FR 37104 on July 31, 2019,
is withdrawn effective September 25, 2019.

Air Permits Section, Air Programs Branch (AR-18J), Environmental
Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the direct final rule, EPA stated that if
adverse comments were submitted by August 30, 2019, the rule would be
withdrawn and not take effect. EPA received an adverse comment prior to
the close of the comment period and, therefore, is withdrawing the
direct final rule. EPA will address the comment in a subsequent final
action based upon the proposed action also published on July 31, 2019
(84 FR 37194). EPA will not institute a second comment period on this
action.
