comments. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the preamble to the direct final 

rule. 

If EPA receives no adverse comments, EPA will not take further action on this proposed 

rule. If EPA receives adverse comments, EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not 

take effect. EPA will address all public comments in a subsequent final rule based on this 

proposed rule.

commenting must do so at this time. For further information, please see the ADDRESSES 

section of this notice.

if that provision may be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those 

provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment. See the information 

provided in the Direct Final action of the same title which is located in the Rules and Regulations
