Withdrawal of Direct Final Rule for Interim Approval of Operating Permits Program; South Coast Air Quality Management District, California

Due to an adverse comment, EPA is withdrawing the direct final rule for the interim approval of the South Coast Air Quality Management District title V operating permits program. EPA published the direct final rule on August 29, 1996, 61 FR 45330. As stated in that Federal Register document, if adverse or critical comments were received by September 30, 1996, the effective date would be delayed and notice would be published in the Federal Register. EPA subsequently received adverse comments on that direct final rule. EPA will address the comments received in a subsequent final action in the near future. EPA will not institute a second comment period on this document.
