Control of Hazardous Air Pollutants From Mobile Sources: Early
Credit Technology Requirement Revision

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Withdrawal of Direct Final Rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Because EPA received significant adverse comment, we are
withdrawing the direct final rule for revising the February 26, 2007
mobile source air toxics rule's requirements that specify the benzene
control technologies that qualify a refiner to generate early benzene
credits, published on March 12, 2008.

DATES: Effective May 9, 2008, EPA withdraws the direct final rule
published at 73 FR 13132 on March 12, 2008.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Christine Brunner, Office of
Transportation and Air Quality, Assessment and Standards Division,
Environmental Protection Agency, 2000 Traverwood, Ann Arbor, MI 48105;
telephone number: (734) 214-4287; fax number: (734) 214-4816; e-mail
address: brunner.christine@epa.gov. Alternative contact: Assessment and
Standards Division Hotline, telephone number: (734) 214-4636; e-mail

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Because EPA received significant adverse
comment, we are withdrawing the direct final rule for revising the
February 26, 2007 mobile source air toxics rule's requirements that
specify the benzene control technologies that qualify a refiner to
generate early benzene credits, published on March 12, 2008 (73 FR
13132). We stated in that direct final rule that if we received adverse
comment by April 11, 2008, the direct final rule would not take effect
and we would publish a timely withdrawal in the Federal Register. We
subsequently received significant adverse comment on that direct final
rule. We will address those comments in any subsequent final action,
which will be based on the parallel proposed rule also published on
March 12, 2008 (73 FR 13163). As stated in the direct final rule and
the parallel proposed rule, we will not institute a second comment
period on this action.

    Dated: May 1, 2008.
Stephen L. Johnson,
Administrator.

Accordingly, the amendments to the rule published on March 12, 2008
(73 FR 13132) are withdrawn as of May 9, 2008.
