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

SUMMARY: EPA is reopening the public comment period for the proposed

national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) for

chromium emissions from hard and decorative chromium electroplating and

chromium anodizing tanks. As initially published in the Federal

Register of December 16, 1993 (58 FR 65768), written comments on the

proposed rule were to be submitted to EPA on or before February 14,

1994 (a 60-day comment period). The public comment period is being

reopened and will end on March 18, 1994.

DATES: Comments. Comments must be received on or before March 18, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be submitted to the docket.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Several persons who intend to submit

comments concerning the proposed NESHAP for chromium electroplating and

comments, beyond the 60 days originally provided. In consideration of

these requests, EPA is reopening the comment period in order to give

all interested persons the opportunity to comment fully. This reopening

of the public comment period is necessary to ensure that interested

parties have adequate time to provide the EPA with written comments on

the proposed rule.
