ACTION: Proposed rules; correction and extension of comment period. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: EPA is correcting minor errors in the preamble and effluent limitations guidelines and standards and the national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants for the pulp, paper, and paperboard production category, which appeared in the Federal Register on December 17, 1993 (58 FR 66078). EPA is also extending the comment period for an additional 30 days. DATES: Comments on the proposed rules must be received by April 18, 1994 at the following address. ADDRESSES: Send comments in triplicate on the proposed rules to Ms. Marion Thompson, Engineering and Analysis Division (4303), U.S. EPA, 401 M Street SW., Washington, DC 20460. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Debra Nicoll at (202) 260- 5386. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on December 17, 1993 (58 FR 66078), EPA proposed effluent limitations guidelines and standards for the control of wastewater pollutants and also proposed national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants. The notice contained some minor errors that are discussed briefly below and are corrected by this notice. In addition, EPA recognizes that the record supporting the proposed rulemaking is large and complex. To better facilitate informed comment, the Agency is extending the comment period by 30 days for a new deadline of April 18, 1994. Dated: March 8, 1994. Mary Nichols, Assistant Administrator for Air and Radiation. Dated: March 4, 1994. Robert Perciasepe, Assistant Administrator for Water. The following corrections are made in FRL-4802-4, effluent limitations guidelines, pretreatment standards, and new source performance standards: pulp, paper, and paperboard category and national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants for source category: pulp and paper production, which was published in the Federal Register on December 17, 1993 (58 FR 66078). 1.
