MOTION TO AMEND RULEMAKING PROPOSAL
The Proponent, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ("Illinois EPA"), by its
attorney, and pursuant to
35 Ill. Adm, Code 101.500 and 102.402, moves that the Illinois
Pollution Control Board ("Board") amend Parts 218 and 219 of this rulemaking proposal. In
support
of its Motion, the Illinois EPA states as follows:
1,
On October 23,2009, the Illinois EPA filed a proposal with the Board to amend 35
Ill.
Adm, Code Parts 218 and 219 to control the emissions of volatile organic materials ("V OM")
from Group III Consumer and Commercial Product categories, The proposal implements
reasonably available control technology for such categories
in response to Control Techniqnes
Guidelines issued by the
United States Environmental Protection Agency,
2,
On December 9, 2009, the Board held its first hearing regarding this rulemaking
proposal. Based upon questions asked and comments received at such hearing, the Illinois
EPA
proposes the following amendments to its proposal.
3,
In response to a Board recommendation that the proposed application method limitations
set forth
in Section
218/219.204(g)
and (h) be instead placed in a more appropriate section of
Subpart F, the Illinois EPA recommends moving such limitations to Section
218/219.218,
