## Abstract

On May 15, 1996, EPA promulgated interim approval of the 40 CFR part 70 Operating Permits Program for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. That document correctly identified the effective date of the approval as May 15, 1996. The May 15, 1996, document also amended the text of 40 CFR part 70, Appendix A, to reflect the effective date of the interim approval; however, an incorrect date was added to Appendix A. On June 20, 1996 (61 FR 31442) EPA published a final rule amending 40 CFR part 70, Appendix A, to correct the effective date in Appendix A to May 15, 1996. This document corrects the effective date of the June 20, 1996, rule to February 9, 1998 to be consistent with sections 801 and 808 of the Congressional Review Act (CRA), enacted as part of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 and 808.
