MOTION
TO
DISMISS
NOW
COMES
the
Illinois
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(“Illinois
EPA”),
by
one
of
its
attorneys,
Kimberly
A.
Geving,
and, pursuant
to
35
Ill.
Adm.
Code
102.2
12(a)
and
(d)
and
35
Ill.
Adm.
Code
10
1.500,
hereby
respectfully
moves
the
Illinois
Pollution
Control
Board
(“Board”)
to
dismiss
the
above
action.
In
support
of
its
motion,
the
Illinois
EPA
states
as
follows:
1.
On
June
22,
2009,
Richard
Rosenbaum,
Manager
of
Maximum
Investments,
LLC
(“Petitioner”)
filed
a
Petition
for
a Rule of
General
Applicability.
2.
Petitioner’s filing
is
improper
in
that
it
requests
the
Board
to
adopt
a
rule
of
general
applicability
to
define
“review
and
evaluation
services”
under
Section
22.2b(a)(3)
of
the
Illinois
Environmental
Protection
Act
(“Act”)
[
415
ILCS 5/22
.2b(a)(3)].
Under
Section
22.2b(e)
of
the
Act,
it
is
the
Illinois
EPA
that
has
the
authority
to
adopt
any
such
regulations,
not
the
Board.
3.
In
the
alternative,
even
if
the
Board
had
the
authority
to
adopt
such
a
regulation,
the
Petitioner’s
Petition
fails
to
satisfy
the
content
requirements
for
Board
regulatory
proposals
under
35
Ill.
Adm.
Code
102.202.
First
of
all,
Petitioner’s
proposal
is
not
drafted
in
accordance
with
1111.
Adm.
Code
l00.Subpart
C.
Second,
the
Petitioner’s
proposal
is
not
accompanied
by
a statement
of
reasons
that
includes
all
the
requirements
of 35111.
Adm.
Code 101.202(b).
Third, the
Petitioner’s
proposal
is
not accompanied
by
a
petition
signed by
at least
200
persons,
as
required
by
Section
28 of the
Act and
35 Ill.
Adm.
Code
102.410(b).
Fourth,
the
Petitioner’s
proposal
is not
accompanied
by
any
justification
for
the inapplicability
or
unavailability
of
materials
incorporated
by
reference or
published
studies
or research
reports
used
in
developing
the
rule,
as is
required
by
35
Ill. Adm. Code
102.202(k).
Petitioner
simply
stated
“None.”
WHEREFORE,
for the reasons
stated
above, the
Illinois
EPA
respectfully
requests
that
the Board
grant this
Motion
to Dismiss.
Respectfully
submitted,
