revision as a modification to the SIP on March 22, 2022. In the direct
final rule, EPA stated that if adverse comments were submitted by
October 27, 2022, the rule would be withdrawn and not take effect. On
October 27, 2022, EPA received a comment. EPA believes this comment is
adverse and, therefore, EPA is withdrawing the direct final rule. EPA

proposed action also published on September 27, 2022 (87 FR 58471). EPA
will not institute a second comment period on this action.
