NOTICE OF PUBLIC INFORMATION PURSUANT TO 415 1LCS 5/7 .2(b)
In this Notice of Public Information under Section 7 .2(b) of the Illinois Environmental
Protection Act (Act), 415 ILCS 5/7 .2(b) (2006), the Board explains why it has extended until
December 26, 2006, the deadline for adoption and filing of rules in the following consolidated
identical in substance rulemaking : UIC Corrections, USEPA Amendments (July 1, 2005 through
December 31, 2005, R06-16 ; RCRA Subtitle D Update, USEPA Amendments (July 1, 2005
through December 31, 2005 and August 1, 2005),
R06-17; RCRA Subtitle C Update, USEPA
Amendments (July 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005 and August 1, 2005), R06-18
(consolidated) .
The public comment period was originally scheduled to close June 5, 2006, 45 days after
Illinois Register publication of the proposal on April 21, 2006
. The original due date for filing
this rulemaking with the Secretary of State's Index department was August 5, 2006 (one year
after the earliest federal action that is included in the identical-in-substance update) . The Board
first extended the public comment deadline in response to a May 18, 2006 request made by the
Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) . The Board granted the Agency motion by
an order dated June 1, 2006, allowing the filing of public comments until June 30, 2006
. The
Board again, on its own motion, adopted a second order on September 7, 2006, to extend the
deadline for final adoption in this identical-in-substance rulemaking
. The Board now finds for
the third time that additional time is necessary to complete the amendments . While the Board
had anticipated adopting these amendments no later than November 2, 2006 when it ordered the
second extension of the deadline, an additional two weeks proved necessary
. The Board found it
necessary to prioritize adoption of the second notice opinion and order in Proposed New 35 Ill .
Adm. Code 225 Control of Emissions From Large Combustion Sources (Mercury),
R06-25
(Nov. 2, 2006)
.
Since the Board's November 16, 2006, opinion and order adopted the amendments in this
matter, no delay other than the routine 30-day hold on the hazardous waste amendments before
their filing with the Office of the Secretary of State is necessary
. Thus, the Board anticipates that
the amendments will be filed and will become effective no later than December 26, 2006
