Pennsylvania; Withdrawal of Proposed Rule for the Update of the Motor 
Vehicle Emissions Budgets for the Lancaster 1997 8-Hour Ozone 
Maintenance Area

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Withdrawal of proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is withdrawing the proposed rule proposing approval of 
revisions to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's State Implementation 
Plan (SIP). The revisions consist of an update to the SIP-approved 
Motor Vehicle Emissions Budgets (MVEBs) for nitrogen oxides 
(NOX) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and an updated 
point source inventory for NOX and VOCs for the 1997 8-Hour 
Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard SIP for Lancaster County. 
In the associated direct final rule published on August 8, 2013, the 
table with the revised MVEBs contained numerical errors. Therefore, EPA 
is withdrawing this proposed rule also published on August 8, 2013. The 
proposed rule is hereby withdrawn in its entirety. EPA will commence a 
separate rulemaking action for this SIP revision.

DATES: The proposed rule published at 78 FR 48373 on August 8, 2013, is 
withdrawn as of September 26, 2013.
