Air Quality Implementation Plans; West Virginia; Redesignation of the 
City of Weirton PM-10 Nonattainment Area to Attainment and Approval of 
the Limited Maintenance Plan,'' provides more detailed legal and 
factual basis for supporting our decision to withdraw the NPR and its 
related correcting amendment. Our proposed action to approve the State
