    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    EPA is withdrawing the April 30, 2014 (79 FR 24337), direct final rule approving a revision to the Wisconsin nitrogen oxide combustion turbine rule for the Milwaukee-Racine former nonattainment area. In the direct final rule, EPA stated that if adverse comments were received by May 30, 2014, the rule would be withdrawn and not take effect. On May 30, 2014, EPA received a comment, which it interprets as adverse and, therefore, EPA is withdrawing the direct final rule. EPA will address the comment in a subsequent final action based upon the proposed rulemaking action, also published on April 30, 2014 (79 FR 24359). EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action.
