Title: ●Correction To Insert Credible Evidence Language Missing From the Compliance Certification Provisions for Operating Permits Programs 
Abstract: This rule will amend the compliance certification provisions to restore a sentence removed by error in a previous amendment. The June 27, 2003, final rule that amended the Compliance Certification Requirements language inadvertently omitted the following sentence: "If necessary, the owner or operator also shall identify any other material information that must be included in the certification to comply with section 113(c)(2) of the Act, which prohibits knowingly making a false certification or omitting material information." The Inspector General (IG) report strongly recommends that the language should be restored to maximize the effectiveness of "all credible evidence" regulations. EPA agrees with the recommendation and is taking action to correct this error by restoring the omitted sentence in the rules.
