SUMMARY: Due to the receipt of an adverse comment, the Environmental 
Protection Agency (EPA) is withdrawing the September 17, 2014, direct 
final rule approving a revision to provisions in Title 326 of the 
Indiana Administrative Code, Article 4, Rule 1, Open Burning Rule.

DATES: The direct final rule published at 79 FR 55641 on September 17,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The State of Indiana submitted this revision 
as a modification to the State Implementation Plan for open burning on 
November 14, 2011. In the direct final rule, EPA stated that if adverse 
comments were submitted by October 17, 2014, the rule would be 
withdrawn and not take effect. On September 21, 2014, EPA received an 
adverse comment and, therefore, is withdrawing the direct final rule. 
EPA will address the comment in a subsequent final action based upon 
the proposed action also published on September 17, 2014. EPA will not 
institute a second comment period on this action.
