SUMMARY: EPA is reopening the comment period for the proposed rule
entitled ``Consolidated Rules of Practice Governing the Administrative
Assessment of Civil Penalties, Issuance of Compliance or Corrective
Action Orders, and the Revocation, Termination or Suspension of
Permits'' that was published in the Federal Register of February 25,

proposed changes. In response, the Agency is reopening the comment
period. The original comment period closed April 27, 1998.
DATES: Written comments must be submitted on or before June 5, 1998.
ADDRESSES: Comments should be submitted in writing to Enforcement and
Compliance Docket and Information Center (2201A), Office of Enforcement

EPA will make available, both in paper form and on the internet, a

Rios Federal Building, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC
