First Notice.
OPINION
AND
ORDER OF THE
BOARD
(by J. Theodore Meyer):
On July 22,
1993, the Illinois Environmental Protection
Agency
(Agency)
filed this proposal for rulemaking.
The proposal
represents one part of Illinois’ submittal of a complete state
implementation plan
(SIP).
Pursuant to Section 182(a)
of the
Clean Air Act,
as amended in 1990,
Illinois was to adopt and
submit its plan
by
November 15,
1992.
The proposal would expand
the existing requirement that major sources of volatile organic
material
(VOl.1)
utilize reasonably available control technology
(RACT)
to all sources
in the Chicago ozone nonattainrnent area
which emit or have a potential to emit 25 tons per year VOM.
The
proposal seeks to amend 35 I1l.Adm.Code 211 and 218.
This proposal was filed pursuant to Section 28.5 of the
Environmental Protection Act (Act).
(415 ILCS 5/28.5
(1992).)
That section requires the Board to proceed with rulemaking under
set time-frames.
The Board has no discretion to adjust these
time frames under any circumstances.
Today the Board acts to
send this proposal to first notice under the Illinois
Administrative Procedure Act, but without commenting on the
merits of the proposal.
The following schedule
indicates the deadlines by which the
Board must act,
as provided in Section 28.5
first notice
on or before July 26,
1993
first hearing
on or before September
6,
1993
second hearing
on or before October
6,
1993
third hearing
on or before October 20,
1993
second notice
(if
third hearing cancelled)
on or before November 19,
1993
(if third hearing held)
on or before December
9,
1993
final adoption and filing
21 days after receipt of JCAR
certificate of no objection
The Board notes that the above dates are the deadlines as
established by Section 28.5 and do not represent actual hearing

2
dates or filing dates.
While the schedule includes second and
third hearings, these hearings may be cancelled if unnecessary.
The Board will proceed in this matter as prescribed in Section
28.5 and discussed in the Board’s resolution.

Clean Air Act~
Rulemaking Procedures Pursuant to Section 28.5
of the
Environmental Protection Act,
as Added By P.A.
87-1213,
(October
29,
1992 and December 3,
1992), RES 92—2.)
The Agency has filed a motion for waiver of requirements
with the proposal.
The Agency requests waiver of the following
requirements:
that the Agency submit the original and nine
copies of the entire regulatory proposal; that the Agency submit
a copy of the proposal to the Attorney General and the Department
of Energyand Natural Resources (ENR); and that the Agency submit
copies of all documents upon which it relied.
The Agency asks
that it be permitted to file an original plus five complete
copies of the proposal and four partial copies.
A partial copy
includes the pleadings and the proposed rules,
but does not
include the supporting exhibits.
The Attorney General and ENR
have agreed with the Agency that a copy of the proposal need not
be
served upon them.
The Agency had provided the Board with one
copy of the majority of the documents on which
it relied, and
notes that the other documents are readily accessible or already
in the Board’s possession.
The Board grants the Agency’s motion.
The Board has slightly modified the caption of this
rulemaking to reflect that it applies to sources which have the
potential to emit 25 tons per year VON.
The only changes made to
the proposal itself,
as submitted by the Agency, were corrections
to the tables of contents for Parts 211 and 218.
ORDER
The Board directs the Clerk to cause publication of the
following amendments in the Illinois Register for first notice:

Control Requirements
~j
Every owner or operator of

with the operating requirements below:
~j. Any of the following:
~J-
Use polyester resin material with
a monomer
content of no more than 35

determined
on
a daily basis
~j
Use a closed—mold system or pultrusion system
which will result in less than
4 percent weight
loss of polyester resin materials
.Q~
Use vapor suppressed polyester resin approved by
the
Agency
in
the source’s permit such that weight
loss from VON emissions does not exceed 60 grams
per square meter
of exposed surface area during
resin polymerization;
or
~j
Use any materials or processes that are
demonstrated to the satisfaction
of the Agency to
achieve VON emission levels equivalent to any of
the above. This alternative must be approved by
the Agency and the USEPA
in
a federally
enforceable permit or as
a SIP revision.

For spraying operations,
in addition to the

materials

23
in such
a manner as to effectively control VON emissions

of cleaning materials which contain more
than 200 prams of VOM per liter
(1.7 pound per aallon)
