Clean Air Act Promulgation of Extension of Attainment Date for
Ozone Nonattainment Area; Ohio; Kentucky
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Direct final rule; withdrawal.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On May 27, 1997 (62 FR 28634), EPA extended the attainment
date for the Cincinnati-Hamilton interstate moderate ozone
nonattainment area from November 15, 1996 to November 15, 1997. This
extension was based in part on monitored air quality readings for the
national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS) for ozone during 1996.
Accordingly, EPA revised the table in the Code of Federal Regulations
concerning ozone attainment dates in this area. The EPA is withdrawing
this final rule due to the receipt of adverse comments on EPA's
rulemaking action. In a subsequent final rule, EPA will summarize and
respond to the comments received and announce final rulemaking action
on the attainment date extension requests.
EFFECTIVE DATE: July 28, 1997.
