As published, the final regulations contained an error which may prove to be misleading and needs to be clarified. The direct final rule in 75 FR 9103 inadvertently stated that 40 CFR 52.740 was being amended, but the actual section being amended is 40 CFR 52.720.

Accordingly, the following correction is made to the final rule published March 1, 2010, (75 FR 9103).

1. On page 9105, in the third column, amendatory instruction 2 is corrected to read as follows:

“2. Section 52.720 is amended by adding paragraph (c)(185), to read as follows:”

Dated: March 12, 2010.
