BASIS AND PURPOSE
The Commission's decision to delay consideration of nutrient criteria until March 2012 resulted in cancelation of the December 2011 review of temporary modifications. Accordingly, the Commission considered the expiration dates of all the temporary modifications expiring on or before December 31, 2012 in a written comment rulemaking. The Commission extended the expiration date of the following temporary modification to December 31, 2013. It will be reviewed again in a Temporary Modification hearing in December 2012.
