Withdrawal of Federal Human Health and Aquatic Life Water Quality Criteria for Toxic Pollutants Applicable to Michigan

Résumé

EPA is proposing to amend the Federal regulations to withdraw water quality criteria applicable to Michigan. In the "Rules and Regulations" section of this Federal Register, EPA is promulgating a direct final rule withdrawing the Federal water quality criteria applicable to Michigan because EPA views this as a noncontroversial action and anticipates no adverse comment. EPA has explained our reasons for this action in the preamble to the direct final rule. If EPA receives no adverse comments, the Agency will not take further action on this proposed rule. If EPA receives adverse comment, the Agency will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not take effect. EPA will address all public comments in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time.
