and 365(b) were inadvertently omitted).

Section 1.55(c) should refer to ‘‘35

U.S.C. 119(a) through (d) and (f), and

365(a)’’ rather than ‘‘35 U.S.C. 119(a)

through (d) and 365(a)’’ (a reference to

35 U.S.C. 119(f) was inadvertently

omitted).

Section 1.99(f) should not include its

last sentence (‘‘[N]o further submission

on behalf of the member of the public

will be considered, unless such

submission raises new issues which

could not have been earlier

Identification of Approved and

Disapproved Elements of the Great

Lakes Guidance Submission From the

State of Wisconsin, and Final Rule

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: EPA published the final

Water Quality Guidance for the Great

Lakes System (the Guidance) on March

23, 1995. Section 118(c) of the Clean

Water Act (CWA) requires the Great

Lakes States of Illinois, Indiana,

Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio,

Pennsylvania and Wisconsin to adopt

within two years of publication of the

final Guidance (i.e., March 23, 1997)

minimum water quality standards,

antidegradation policies and

implementation procedures that are

consistent with the Guidance, and to

submit them to EPA for review and

approval. Each of the Great Lakes States

made those submissions.

Today, EPA is taking final action on

the Guidance submission of the State of

Wisconsin. EPA’s final action consists

of approving those elements of the

State’s submission that are consistent

with the Guidance, disapproving those

elements that are not consistent with the

Guidance, and specifying in a final rule

the elements of the Guidance that apply
