Withdrawal of Direct Final Rule for Monitoring, Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirement Revisions to the Petroleum Refineries NESHAP

Due to an adverse comment, EPA is withdrawing the direct final rule for monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting requirement revisions to the Petroleum Refineries NESHAP. The EPA published the direct final rule on March 20, 1998 at 63 FR 13533-13541. As stated in that Federal Register document, if significant adverse comments were received by April 20, 1998, the rule would not become effective and notice would be published in the Federal Register. The EPA subsequently received adverse comments on that final rule. The EPA will address the comments received in a subsequent final action based on a companion proposed rule (63 FR 13587-13589). The EPA will not institute a second comment period on this document.
