Pennsylvania; Withdrawal of Proposed Rule for the Update of the Motor
Vehicle Emissions Budgets for the Lancaster 1997 8-Hour Ozone
Maintenance Area
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Withdrawal of proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is withdrawing the proposed rule proposing approval of
revisions to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's State Implementation
Plan (SIP). The revisions consist of an update to the SIP-approved
Motor Vehicle Emissions Budgets (MVEBs) for nitrogen oxides
(NOX) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and an updated
point source inventory for NOX and VOCs for the 1997 8-Hour
Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard SIP for Lancaster County.
In the associated direct final rule published on August 8, 2013, the
table with the revised MVEBs contained numerical errors. Therefore, EPA
is withdrawing this proposed rule also published on August 8, 2013. The
proposed rule is hereby withdrawn in its entirety. EPA will commence a
separate rulemaking action for this SIP revision.
DATES: The proposed rule published at 78 FR 48373 on August 8, 2013, is
withdrawn as of September 26, 2013.
