**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Why is the EPA issuing this proposed rule?

EPA is proposing to revise the deadline in 40 CFR 98.234(f)(8)(i) by which owners or operators of facilities subject to the petroleum and natural gas systems source category, subpart W, of the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule must submit a request to use best available monitoring methods to the Administrator. We have published a direct final rule making this revision in the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of this Federal Register because the EPA views this as a noncontroversial action and no adverse comments are anticipated. A further explanation for the reasons for this action is in the preamble to the direct final rule.

If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action on this proposed rule. If the EPA receives relevant adverse comment, we will publish a timely withdrawal notice in the Federal Register to inform the public that the direct final rule, or the relevant portion of the direct final rule, will not take effect. The rule provisions


### 11620 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 33 / Tuesday, February 19, 2013 / Proposed Rules

that are not withdrawn will become effective on the date set out in the direct final rule, notwithstanding relevant adverse comment on any other provision, unless we determine that it would not be appropriate to promulgate those provisions due to their being affected by the provision for which we receive relevant adverse comment. If the EPA does receive relevant adverse comment on the direct final rule and withdraws the direct final rule, we will address all public comments in any subsequent final rule based on this proposal. We will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting on the specific changes being made must do so by the comment deadline listed in the

**DATES** section of this document. The EPA will not consider a comment to be adverse if a comment pertains to an aspect of part 98 or 40 CFR part 98, subpart W that is not addressed in the direct final rule. For further information about commenting on this action, please see the information provided in the
