40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R09-OAR-2012-0236; FRL-9690-9]

Withdrawal of Direct Final Rule Revising the California State 
Implementation Plan, South Coast Air Quality Management District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Withdrawal of direct final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On June 1, 2012 (77 FR 32398), EPA published a direct final 
approval of a revision to the California State Implementation Plan 
(SIP). This revision concerned South Coast Air Quality Management 
District (SCAQMD) Rule 1156, Further Reductions of Particulate 
Emissions from Cement Manufacturing Facilities. The direct final action 
was published without prior proposal because EPA anticipated no adverse 
comment. The direct final rule stated that if adverse comments were 
received by July 2, 2012, EPA would publish a timely withdrawal in the 
Federal Register. EPA received a timely adverse comment. Consequently, 
with this revision we are withdrawing the direct final approval of 
SCAQMD Rule 1156. EPA will either address the comment in a subsequent 
final action based on the parallel proposal also published on June 1, 
2012 (77 FR 32398), or repropose an alternative action. As stated in 
the parallel proposal, EPA will not institute a second comment period 
on a subsequent final action.

DATES: The addition of 40 CFR 52.220 (c)(362)(i)(B)(2) published at 77 
FR 32398 on June 1, 2012 is withdrawn as of July 2, 2012.

this action. Generally, documents in the docket for this action are
