[EPA-R01-OAR-2020-0029; FRL-10007-63-Region 1]


Air Plan Approval; New Hampshire; Approval of Single Source 
Order; 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 February 14, 2020 direct 
final rule approving a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision 
submitted by the State of New Hampshire. New Hampshire's SIP revision 
established an Order reducing emissions of volatile organic chemicals 
from PSI Molded Plastics. This action is being taken in accordance with 
the Clean Air Act.

DATES: The direct final rule published at 85 FR 8408 on February 14, 
2020 is withdrawn effective April 10, 2020.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bob McConnell, Environmental Engineer, 
Air and Radiation Division (Mail Code 05-2), U.S. Environmental 
Protection Agency, Region 1, 5 Post Office Square, Suite 100, Boston, 
Massachusetts 02109-3912; (617) 918-1046. mcconnell.robert@epa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the direct final rule, EPA stated that if 
adverse comments were submitted by March 16, 2020, 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withdrawn and not take effect.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 rule also published on February 14, 2020 
(85 FR 8520). EPA will not institute a second comment period on this 
action.
