Proposed Rule. Proposal for Public Comment.

OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by T.E. Johnson):

The Board today proposes amendments to the Illinois regulations that are “identical in substance” to drinking water regulations adopted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). The USEPA rules implement Sections 1412(b), 1414(c), 1417(a), and 1445(a) of the federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) (42 U.S.C. §§ 300g-1(a), 300g-3(c), 300g-6(a), and 300j-4(a) (1994)).

This docket includes federal SDWA amendments that USEPA adopted in the period January 1, 2004 though June 30, 2004, and on August 25, 2004. The amendments approve one new analytical method for analysis of total coliforms and E. coli and three new methods for analysis of uranium in drinking water. Another amendment makes a number of minor corrections to various federal rules, including the Long Term 1 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule, the Surface Water Treatment Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.

Sections 7.2 and 17.5 of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/7.2 and 17.5 (2002)) provide for quick adoption by the Board of regulations that are identical in substance to federal regulations that USEPA adopts to implement Sections 1412(b), 1414(c), 1417(a), and 1445(a) of the federal SDWA. Section 17.5 also provides that Title VII of the Act and Section 5 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 ILCS 100/5-35 and 5-40 (2002)) do not apply to the Board’s adoption of identical-in-substance regulations. The federal SDWA regulations are found at 40 C.F.R. 141 through 143.

The Board will cause the proposed amendments to be published in the Illinois Register and will hold the docket open to receive public comments for 45 days after the date of publication. The Board will then adopt and file the final rules, taking into account the public comments received. The rules will be adopted and filed no later than February 15, 2005.

FEDERAL ACTIONS CONSIDERED IN THIS RULEMAKING

The following briefly summarizes the federal actions considered in this rulemaking.

Docket R05-6: January 1, 2004 though June 30, 2004 SDWA Amendments

USEPA amended the federal SDWA regulations three times during the period January 1, 2004 though June 30, 2004. These actions are summarized below:

February 13, 2004 (69 Fed. Reg. 7156)

USEPA approved an additional analytical method for coliforms and E. coli in drinking water.

June 2, 2004 (69 Fed. Reg. 31008)

By a direct final rule, USEPA approved three additional analytical methods for uranium in drinking water. (This rule was withdrawn on August 25, 2004, as described below.)

June 29, 2004 (69 Fed. Reg. 38850)

USEPA adopted a number of minor corrections to various rules, including the Long Term 1 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule, the Surface Water Treatment Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.

Two Later SDWA (Drinking Water) Amendments of Interest: August 25, 2004

The Board engages in ongoing monitoring of federal actions. As of the date of this opinion and accompanying order, the Board has identified two simultaneous and related USEPA actions since June 30, 2004, that further amend the SDWA rules. Both actions relate directly to the subject matter of the June 2, 2004 amendments that are involved in this docket. Those two actions are described as follows:

August 25, 2004 (69 Fed. Reg. 52176)

By a final rule, USEPA approved the three additional analytical methods for uranium in drinking water that it had approved on June 2, 2004, by a direct final rule. (Note the June 2, 2004 notice of proposed rule at 69 Fed. Reg. 31068.)

August 25, 2004 (69 Fed. Reg. 52181)

In response to adverse public comments, USEPA withdrew its June 2, 2004 direct final rule that approved three additional analytical methods for uranium in drinking water.

When the Board observes an action outside the nominal timeframe of a docket that would require expedited consideration in the pending docket, the Board will expedite consideration of those amendments. Federal actions that could warrant expedited consideration include those that directly affect the amendments involved in this docket, those for which compelling reasons would warrant consideration as soon as possible, and those for which the Board has received a request for expedited consideration.

The actions of August 25, 2004, directly affect the subject matter of the June 2, 2004 amendments. One August 25, 2004 action nullifies the June 2, 2004 action, and the other August 25, 2004 adopts the June 2, 2004 amendments based on the notice of proposed rule published on June 2, 2004 in conjunction with the direct final rule. ¹ The ultimate August 25, 2004 rule adopted was identical to the direct final rule adopted on June 2, 2004 and withdrawn on August 25, 2004.

No Other Federal Actions Having a Direct Impact on the

Illinois SDWA (Drinking Water) Regulations

In addition to the amendments to the federal SDWA regulations, amendments to certain other federal regulations occasionally have an effect on the Illinois drinking water rules. Most notably, 35 Ill. Adm. Code 611.102 includes the incorporation of Appendices B and C of 40 C.F.R. 136 by reference. These are federal Clean Water Act methods for analysis of contaminants in water.

As of the date of this proposal for public comment, the Board has found no amendments to the pertinent segments of 40 C.F.R. 136 in the current update period. No Board action will be required at this time to update the version of 40 C.F.R. 136 incorporated by reference in to include the amendments.

August 25, 2004 (69 Fed. Reg. 52181)	Withdrawal of the June 2, 2004 direct final rule.

PUBLIC COMMENTS

The Board will receive public comments on this proposal for 45 days following its publication in the Illinois Register. After that time, the Board will immediately consider adoption of the amendments, making any necessary changes made evident through the public comments. The Board will file any adopted rules with the Secretary of State immediately after adoption, but no later than February 13, 2005.

DISCUSSION

The following discussion begins with a description of the types of deviations the Board makes from the literal text of federal regulations in adopting identical-in-substance rules. It is followed by a discussion of the amendments and actions undertaken in direct response to the federal actions involved in this proceeding. This first series of discussions is organized by federal subject matter, generally appearing in chronological order of the relevant Federal Register notices involved. Finally, this discussion closes with a description of the amendments and actions that are not directly derived from the federal actions.

Discussion of the Federal Action

Newly-Added Analytical Method for Coliforms—Section 611.526

On February 13, 2004 (69 Fed. Reg. 7156), USEPA approved use of the Colitag â method for monitoring compliance with the total coliforms and E. coli standards for drinking water. The Colitag â method is a proprietary method available for purchase from CPI International, Inc. The USEPA action includes the Colitag method among the reference and proprietary methods already approved and available for demonstrating compliance with the total coliform and E. coli standards.

The Board incorporated the February 13, 2004 federal amendments without deviation from the substance of the federal amendments. References to the Colitag â method for testing total coliforms and E. coli are added to Section 611.526(c)(10) and (f)(10), respectively. The Board has also added the trademark marking “ â ” to each appearance of the proprietary name “Colitag â .” Anyone interested in the substantive aspects of the federal addition of the new method should refer to the February 13, 2004 issue of the Federal Register for further information.

The Board requests comment on incorporation of the Colitag â method into the Illinois regulations to incorporate the USEPA amendments of February 13, 2004.

Newly-Added Analytical Methods for Uranium—Section 611.720

On June 2, 2004 (69 Fed. Reg. 31008), USEPA adopted a direct final rule approving three newly approved analytical methods for monitoring compliance with the uranium standard for drinking water. The methods were inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometric methods in three sources: the 20th edition of “Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastes,” Method 3125; ASTM Method D5673-03; and Method 200.8 in “Methods for the Determination of Metals in Environmental Samples.”

On August 25, 2004 (at 69 Fed. Reg. 52181), USEPA withdrew the June 2, 2004 direct final rule in response to a “somewhat ambiguous comment letter.” 69 Fed. Reg. at 52181. In a separate notice of final rule, USEPA simultaneously addressed the comment letter and adopted amendments substantively identical to those withdrawn. 69 Fed. Reg. 52176 (Aug. 25, 2004). ²

The Board incorporated the August 25, 2004 federal amendments without substantive deviation. References to the three newly approved methods for analysis of uranium were added to Section 611.720(a)(5). The only differences between the Illinois amendments and the underlying federal amendments are stylistic. The primary differences relate to differences in the format of the respective rules: the federal rules appear in tabular form, and the corresponding Illinois rules appear in the standard paragraph format. This required the addition of the text from federal end note 13 as a Board note appended to subsection (a)(5). A stylistic difference not based on format is the designation of uranium isotopes as “²³⁴U” and “²³⁸U,” rather than as “U-234” and “U-238.” The table that begins on page 8 of this opinion itemizes all differences between the federal and State amendments. Anyone interested in the substantive aspects of the federal addition of the new method should refer to the August 25, 2004 issue of the Federal Register for further information.

The Board requests comment on incorporation of the uranium methods into the Illinois regulations to incorporate the USEPA amendments of August 25, 2004.

Miscellaneous Federal Corrections—Sections 611.231, 611.233, 611.241, 611.242, 611.250, 611.261, 611.262, 611.301, 611.382, 611.383, 611.532, 611.533, 611.720, 611.732, 611.953, 611.955, 611.956, and Appendices G and H to Part 611

On June 29, 2004 (69 Fed. Reg. 38850), USEPA adopted a series of corrections to its rules. USEPA described the corrections as clarifying typographic errors, inadvertent omissions, editorial errors, and outdated language in various rules. The rules affected included the following:

1.	The Surface Water Treatment Rule (SWTR), adopted by USEPA on June 29, 1989 (54 Fed. Reg. 27486), (correcting cross-references);

2.	The Lead and Copper Rule (LCR), adopted by USEPA on June 7, 1991 (at 56 Fed. Reg. 26460) and corrected on January 12, 2000 (at 65 Fed. Reg. 1950), (correcting the list of facilities that must receive public education brochures in the event of an exceedence of the action level);

3.	The Phase V Rule, adopted by USEPA on July 17, 1992 (at 57 Fed. Reg. 31776), (clarifying a Best Available Technology for removal of cyanide from water)

4.	Bottled Water Requirements (changing the reference to bottled requirements to reflect their movement by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) from 20 C.F.R. 103.35 to 21 C.F.R. 165.110 on November 13, 1995 (at 60 Fed. Reg. 57076));

5.	The Information Collection Rule (ICR), adopted by USEPA on May 14, 1996 (at 61 Fed. Reg. 24345), (removing obsolete references to data collected under rules that expired on December 31, 2000);

6.	The Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule (Stage 1 D-DBPR), adopted by USEPA on December 16, 1998 (at 63 Fed. Reg. 69390), (adding compliance with the maximum residual disinfectant level (MRDL) to the compliance requirements; correcting a cross-reference);

7.	The Radionuclides Rule, adopted by USEPA on December 7, 2000 (at 65 Fed. Reg. 76708), (adding a detection limit for uranium; correcting typographic errors; clarifying screening levels);

8.	The Filter Backwash Recycling Rule (FBWR), adopted by USEPA on June 8, 2001 (at 66 Fed. Reg. 31086), (correcting cross-references; clarifying the public notice requirements); and

9.	The Long Term 1 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (LT1ESWTR), adopted by USEPA on January 14, 2002 (67 Fed. Reg. 1812), (changing the compliance date from January 14, 2005 to January 1, 2005; adding clarification that the states may approve more representative data sets to avoid disinfection profile monitoring; correcting typographic errors, omissions, and cross-references).

The Board incorporated the June 29, 2004 federal amendments without substantive deviation. It was not necessary, however, to make a small number of the federal corrections because the Board made the corrections when incorporating the original federal rules into the Illinois rules. The following table indicates the federal provisions affected by the corrections and the disposition of the corrections, indicating where applicable the corrections previously made by the Board:
