Download as PDF rmajette on DSKBCKNHB2PROD with RULES Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 221 / Friday, November 17, 2017 / Rules and Regulations Company (NGC) to ensure that it remains a minor VOC source. EPA stated in the direct final rule that if EPA received adverse comments by September 27, 2017, the rule would be withdrawn and not take effect. EPA subsequently received one adverse comment. EPA will address the comment received in a subsequent final action based upon the proposed action also published on August 28, 2017. EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. DATES: As of November 17, 2017, the direct final rule published at 82 FR 40715, August 28, 2017, is withdrawn. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gregory Becoat, (215) 814 2036, or by email at becoat.gregory@epa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 24, 2016, MDE submitted a formal revision to the Maryland SIP. The SIP revision consisted of a request to incorporate by reference a MDE departmental order that establishes an alternative VOC emission standard for NGC as it appears in the permit-toconstruct conditions issued by MDE in order to ensure that it remains a minor stationary source of VOCs. The alternative VOC emissions limit of 195 pounds per operating day with at least a 99% overall VOC control efficiency will achieve a stringent emissions discharge reduction and is more stringent than any established standard for reasonably available control technology (RACT) for major stationary sources of VOCs in Code of Maryland Regulations (COMAR) 26.11.19. Under COMAR 26.11.06.06E—‘‘Exceptions,’’ a source may request an exception to a VOC emissions limit from MDE if the source is not subject to new source review (NSR) and if the source is unable to comply with COMAR 26.11.06.06B— ‘‘Control of VOC from Installations.’’ In the direct final rule published on August 28, 2017 (82 FR 40715), EPA stated that if EPA received adverse comments by September 27, 2017, the rule would be withdrawn and not take effect. EPA subsequently received one adverse comment from an anonymous commenter. As a result of the comment received, EPA is withdrawing the direct final rule approving the revision to the Maryland SIP that incorporates by reference a MDE order establishing a VOC emission standard for NGC.

ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: The Commission grants the request by Gray Television License, LLC (Gray) to substitute channel 7 for channel 5 for station KYES–TV, Anchorage, Alaska. Gray filed comments reaffirming its interest in the proposed channel substitution and stating that if the proposal is granted, it will promptly file an application for the facilities specified in the rulemaking petition and construct the station. As Gray explained in its petition, the antenna currently used by KYES–TV is a repurposed analog antenna the previous station owner built which provides an inefficient signal. In addition, the current remote transmission site does not have a generator and KYES–TV goes silent when there is a power outage. By moving to sister station KTUU’s location, and operating with an existing modern broadband antenna on a highVHF channel, the station will be able to deliver an improved signal. Gray will also add the KYES–TV signal to the translator network used by KTUU, which will reduce most of the loss of service that would result from the proposed move, which will serve the public interest.

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Commission grants the request by Gray Television License, 
LLC (Gray) to substitute channel 7 for channel 5 for station KYES-TV, 
Anchorage, Alaska. Gray filed comments reaffirming its interest in the 
proposed channel substitution and stating that if the proposal is 
granted, it will promptly file an application for the facilities 
specified in the rulemaking petition and construct the station. As Gray 
explained in its petition, the antenna currently used by KYES-TV is a 
repurposed analog antenna the previous station owner built which 
provides an inefficient signal. In addition, the current remote 
transmission site does not have a generator and KYES-TV goes silent 
when there is a power outage. By moving to sister station KTUU's 
location, and operating with an existing modern broadband antenna on a 
high-VHF channel, the station will be able to deliver an improved 
signal. Gray will also add the KYES-TV signal to the translator network 
used by KTUU, which will reduce most of the loss of service that would 
result from the proposed move, which will serve the public interest.

DATES: This rule is effective December 18, 2017.
