Withdrawal of direct final rule.
SUMMARY:
Due to the receipt of an adverse comment, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is withdrawing the February 14, 2020 direct final rule approving a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the State of New Hampshire. New Hampshire's SIP revision established an Order reducing emissions of volatile organic chemicals from PSI Molded Plastics. This action is being taken in accordance with the Clean Air Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
In the direct final rule, EPA stated that if adverse comments were submitted by March 16, 2020, the rule would be withdrawn and not take effect. EPA received an adverse comment prior to the close of the comment period and, therefore, is withdrawing the direct final rule. EPA will address the comment in a subsequent final action based upon the proposed rule also published on February 14, 2020 (85 FR 8520). EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action.
