SUBPART A: INTRODUCTION


 



Section 742.100  Intent and Purpose
 

a)  This Part sets forth procedures for evaluating the risk to human health posed by environmental conditions and developing remediation objectives that achieve acceptable risk levels.

 

b)  The purpose of these procedures is to provide for the adequate protection of human health and the environment based on the risks to human health posed by environmental conditions while incorporating site related information.

 
 
Section 742.105 Applicability
 

a)  Any person, including a person required to perform an investigation pursuant to the Illinois Environmental Protection Act [415 ILCS 5] (Act), may elect to proceed under this Part to the extent allowed by State or federal law and regulations and the provisions of this Part and subject to the exceptions listed in subsection (h) below. A person proceeding under this Part may do so to the extent such actions are consistent with the requirements of the program under which site remediation is being addressed.

 

b)  This Part is to be used in conjunction with the procedures and requirements applicable to the following programs:

 

1)  Leaking Underground Storage Tanks (35 Ill. Adm. Code 731 and 734);

 

2)  Site Remediation Program (35 Ill. Adm. Code 740); and

 

3)  RCRA Part B Permits and Closure Plans (35 Ill. Adm. Code 724 and 725).

 

c)  The procedures in this Part may not be used if their use would delay response action to address imminent and substantial threats to human health and the environment. This Part may only be used after actions to address such threats have been completed.

 

d)  This Part may be used to develop remediation objectives to protect surface waters, sediments or ecological concerns, when consistent with the regulations of other programs, and as approved by the Agency.

 

e)  A no further remediation determination issued by the Agency prior to July 1, 1997 pursuant to Section 4(y) of the Act or one of the programs listed in subsection (b) of this Section that approves completion of remedial action relative to a release shall remain in effect in accordance with the terms of that determination.

 

f)  Site specific groundwater remediation objectives determined under this Part for contaminants of concern may exceed the groundwater quality standards established pursuant to the rules promulgated under the Illinois Groundwater Protection Act [415 ILCS 55] as long as done in accordance with Sections 742.805 and 742.900(c)(9). (See 415 ILCS 5/58.5(d)(4))

 

g)  Where contaminants of concern include polychlorinated byphenyls (PCBs), a person may need to evaluate the applicability of regulations adopted under the Toxic Substances Control Act (15 USC 2601).

 

h)  This Part may not be used in lieu of the procedures and requirements applicable to landfills under 35 Ill. Adm. Code 807 or 811 through 814.

 

i)  An evaluation of the indoor inhalation exposure route under this Part addresses the potential of contaminants present in soil gas or groundwater to reach human receptors within buildings. This Part does not address the remediation or mitigation of any contamination within a building from a source other than soil gas or groundwater, such as the building structure itself and products within the building.

 

 (Source: Amended at 37 Ill. Reg. 7506, effective July 15, 2013)

 
Section 742.110 Overview of Tiered Approach
 


a)  This Part presents an approach for developing remediation objectives (see Appendix A, Illustrations A and B) that include an option for exclusion of pathways from further consideration, use of area background concentrations as remediation objectives and three tiers for selecting applicable remediation objectives. An understanding of human exposure routes is necessary to properly conduct an evaluation under this approach. In some cases, applicable human exposure routes can be excluded from further consideration prior to any tier evaluation. Selecting which tier or combination of tiers to be used to develop remediation objectives is dependent on the site-specific conditions and remediation goals. Tier 1 evaluations and Tier 2 evaluations are not prerequisites to conducting Tier 3 evaluations.

 

b)  A Tier 1 evaluation compares the concentration of contaminants detected at a site to the corresponding remediation objectives for residential and industrial/commercial properties contained in Appendix B, Tables A, B, C, D, E, G, H and I. To complete a Tier 1 evaluation, the extent and concentrations of the contaminants of concern, the groundwater class, the land use classification, human exposure routes at the site, and, if appropriate, soil pH, must be known. If remediation objectives are developed based on industrial/commercial property use, then institutional controls under Subpart J are required. For the indoor inhalation exposure route, institutional controls under Subpart J are required to use remediation objectives in Appendix B, Table H or Table I.

 

c)  A Tier 2 evaluation uses the risk based equations from the Soil Screening Level (SSL) model, Risk Based Corrective Action (RBCA) model and modified Johnson and Ettinger (J&E) model documents listed in Appendix C, Tables A, C and L, respectively. In addition to the information that is required for a Tier 1 evaluation, site-specific information is used to calculate Tier 2 remediation objectives. As in Tier 1, Tier 2 evaluates residential and industrial/commercial properties only. If remediation objectives are developed based on industrial/commercial property use, then institutional controls under Subpart J are required. For the indoor inhalation exposure route, institutional controls under Subpart J are required to develop remediation objectives pursuant to Appendix C, Table L.

 

d)  A Tier 3 evaluation allows alternative parameters and factors, not available under a Tier 1 or Tier 2 evaluation, to be considered when developing remediation objectives. Remediation objectives developed for conservation and agricultural properties can only be developed under Tier 3.

 

e)  Remediation objectives may be developed using area background concentrations or any of the three tiers if the evaluation is conducted in accordance with applicable requirements in Subparts D through I. When contaminant concentrations do not exceed remediation objectives developed under one of the tiers or area background procedures under Subpart D, further evaluation under any of the other tiers is not required.

Section 742.115 Key Elements
 
To develop remediation objectives under this Part, the following key elements shall be addressed.
 

Back to top



a)  Exposure Routes
 

1)  This Part identifies the following as potential exposure routes to be addressed:

 

A)  Outdoor inhalation;

 

B)  Indoor inhalation;

 

C)  Soil ingestion;

 

D)  Groundwater ingestion; and

 

E)  Dermal contact with soil.

 

2)  The evaluation of exposure routes under subsections (a)(1)(A), (a)(1)(B), (a)(1)(C) and (a)(1)(D) is required for all sites when developing remediation objectives or excluding exposure pathways.  Evaluation of the dermal contact exposure route is required for use of RBCA equations in Appendix C, Table C or use of formal risk assessment under Section 742.915.

 

3)  The groundwater ingestion exposure route is comprised of two components:

 

A)  Migration from soil to groundwater (soil component); and

 

B)  Direct ingestion of groundwater (groundwater component).

 

4)  The outdoor inhalation route is comprised of two components:

 

A)  Migration from soil through soil gas to outdoor air (soil component); and

 

B)  Migration from soil gas to outdoor air (soil gas component).

 

5)  The indoor inhalation exposure route is comprised of two components:
A)  Migration from soil gas to indoor air (soil gas component); and

Compliance with soil and groundwater remediation objectives is achieved if each sample result does not exceed that respective remediation objective unless a person elects to proceed under subsections (c), (d) and (e).
a) Compliance with groundwater remediation objectives developed under Subparts D through F and H through I shall be demonstrated by comparing the contaminant concentrations of discrete samples at each sample point to the applicable groundwater remediation objective. Sample points shall be determined by the program under which remediation is performed.
b) Unless the person elects to composite samples or average sampling results as provided in subsections (c) and (d), compliance with soil remediation objectives developed under Subparts D through G and I shall be demonstrated by comparing the contaminant concentrations of discrete samples to the applicable soil remediation objective.
1) Except as provided in subsections (c) and (d), compositing of samples is not allowed.
2) Except as provided in subsections (c) and (d), averaging of sample results is not allowed.
3) Notwithstanding subsections (c) and (d), compositing of samples and averaging of sample results is not allowed for the construction worker population.
4) The number of sampling points required to demonstrate compliance is determined by the requirements applicable to the program under which remediation is performed.
c) If a person chooses to composite soil samples or average soil sample results to demonstrate compliance relative to the soil component of the groundwater ingestion exposure route, the following requirements apply:
1) A minimum of two sampling locations for every 0.5 acre of contaminated area is required, with discrete samples at each sample location obtained at every two feet of depth, beginning at six inches below the ground surface for surface contamination and at the upper limit of contamination for subsurface contamination and continuing through the zone of contamination. Alternatively, a sampling method may be approved by the Agency based on an appropriately designed site-specific evaluation. Samples obtained at or below the water table shall not be used in compositing or averaging.
2) For contaminants of concern other than volatile chemicals:
A) Discrete samples from the same boring may be composited; or
B) Discrete sample results from the same boring may be averaged.
3) For volatile chemicals:
A) Compositing of samples is not allowed.
B) Discrete sample results from the same boring may be averaged.
4) Composite samples may not be averaged. An arithmetic average may be calculated for discrete samples collected at every two feet of depth through the zone of contamination as specified in subsection (c)(1).
d) If a person chooses to composite soil samples or average soil sample results to demonstrate compliance relative to the outdoor inhalation exposure route or ingestion exposure route, the following requirements apply:
1) A person shall submit a sampling plan for Agency approval, based upon a site-specific evaluation;
2) For volatile chemicals, compositing of samples is not allowed;
3) All samples shall be collected within the contaminated area;
4) Composite samples may not be averaged. Procedures specified in “Calculating Upper Confidence Limits for Exposure Point Concentrations at Hazardous Waste Sites”, USEPA Office of Emergency and Remedial Response, OSWER 9285.6-10 (December 2002), as incorporated by reference in Section 742.210, or an alternative procedure approved by the Agency, shall be used to determine sample averages.
e) When averaging under this Section, if no more than 15% of sample results are reported as “non-detect”, “no contamination”, “below detection limits”, or similar terms, such results shall be included in the averaging calculations as one-half the reported analytical detection limit for the contaminant. However, when performing a test for normal or lognormal distribution for the purpose of calculating a 95% Upper Confidence Limit of the mean for a contaminant, a person may substitute for each non-detect value a randomly generated value between, but not including, zero and the reported analytical detection limit. If more than 15% of sample results are "non-detect", procedures specified in “Guidance for Data Quality Assessment, Practical Methods for Data Analysis, EPA QA/G-9, QA00 Update”, EPA/600/R-96/084 (July 2000), as incorporated by reference in Section 742.210, or an alternative procedure approved by the Agency shall be used to address the non-detect values, or another statistically valid procedure approved by the Agency may be used to determine an average.
   
   
  
f) All soil samples collected after August 15, 2001 shall be reported on a dry weight basis for the purpose of demonstrating compliance, with the exception of the TCLP and SPLP and the property pH.

SUBPART D: DETERMINING AREA BACKGROUNDS


 



Section 742.400  Area Background
 
This Subpart provides procedures for determining area background concentrations for contaminants of concern. Except as described in Section 742.415(c) and (d) of this Subpart, area background concentrations may be used as remediation objectives for contaminants of concern at a site.
 
 



Section 742.405  Determination of Area Background for Soil
 

Back to top



a)  Soil sampling results shall be obtained for purposes of determining area background levels in accordance with the following procedures:

 

1)  For volatile chemicals, sample results shall be based on discrete samples;

 

2)  Unless an alternative method is approved by the Agency, for contaminants other than volatile chemicals, sample results shall be based on discrete samples or composite samples. If a person elects to use composite samples, each 0.5 acre of the area to be sampled shall be divided into quadrants and 5 aliquots of equal volume per quadrant shall be composited into 1 sample;

 

3)  Samples shall be collected from similar depths and soil types, which shall be consistent with the depths and soil types in which maximum levels of contaminants are found in the areas of known or suspected releases; and

 

4)  Samples shall be collected from areas of the site or adjacent to the site that are unaffected by known or suspected releases at or from the site. If the sample results show an impact from releases at or from the site, then the sample results shall not be included in determining area background levels under this Part.

 

Back to top



b)  Area background shall be determined according to one of the following approaches:

 

1)  Statewide Area Background Approach:

 

A)  The concentrations of inorganic chemicals in background soils listed in Appendix A, Table G may be used as the upper limit of the area background concentration for the site. The first column to the right of the chemical name presents inorganic chemicals in background soils for counties within Metropolitan Statistical Areas. Counties within Metropolitan Statistical Areas are identified in Appendix A, Table G, Footnote a. Sites located in counties outside Metropolitan Statistical Areas shall use the concentrations of inorganic chemicals in background soils shown in the second column to the right of the chemical name.

 

B)  Soil area background concentrations determined according to this statewide area background approach shall be used as provided in Section 742.415(b) of this Part. For each parameter whose sampling results demonstrate concentrations above those in Appendix A, Table G, the person shall develop appropriate soil remediation objectives in accordance with this Part, or may determine area background in accordance with subsection (b)(2).
 
2)  A statistically valid approach for determining area background concentrations appropriate for the characteristics of the data set, and approved by the Agency.

 

 (Source: Amended at 37 Ill. Reg. 7506, effective July 15, 2013)

 
 



Section 742.410  Determination of Area Background for Groundwater
 

a)  Groundwater sampling results shall be obtained for purposes of determining area background in accordance with the following procedures:

 

1)  Samples shall be collected from areas of the site or adjacent to the site that are unaffected by releases at the site;

 

2)  The background monitoring wells shall be sufficient in number to account for the spatial and temporal variability, size, and number of known or suspected off-site releases of contaminants of concern, and the hydrogeological setting of the site;

 

3)  The samples shall be collected in consecutive quarters for a minimum of one year for each well unless another sample schedule is approved by the Agency;

 

4)  The samples shall be collected from the same stratigraphic unit(s) as the groundwater contamination at the site; and

 

5)  The background monitoring wells shall be located hydraulically upgradient from the release(s) of contaminants of concern, unless a person demonstrates to the Agency that the upgradient location is undefinable or infeasible.

 

b)  Area background shall be determined according to one of the following approaches:

 

1)  Prescriptive Approach:

 

A)  If more than 15% of the groundwater sampling results for a chemical obtained in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section are less than the appropriate detection limit for that chemical, the Prescriptive Approach may not be used for that chemical. If 15% or less of the sampling results are less than the appropriate detection limit, a concentration equal to one-half the detection limit shall be used for that chemical in the calculations contained in this Prescriptive Approach.

 

B)  The groundwater sampling results obtained in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section shall be used to determine if the sample set is normally distributed. The Shapiro-Wilk Test of Normality shall be used to determine whether the sample set is normally distributed, if the sample set for the background well(s) contains 50 or fewer samples. Values necessary for the Shapiro-Wilk Test of Normality shall be determined using Appendix A, Tables C and D. If the computed value of W is greater than the 5% Critical Value in Appendix A, Table D, the sample set shall be assumed to be normally distributed, and the Prescriptive Approach is allowed. If the computed value of W is less than 5% Critical Value in Appendix A, Table D, the sample set shall be assumed to not be normally distributed, and the Prescriptive Approach shall not be used.

 

C)  If the sample set contains at least ten sample results, the Upper Tolerance Limit (UTL) of a normally distributed sample set may be calculated using the mean (x) and standard deviation(s), from:

UTL = x + (K · s),

where K = the one-sided normal tolerance factor for estimating the 95% upper confidence limit of the 95th percentile of a normal distribution. Values for K shall be determined using Appendix A, Table B.

 

D)  If the sample set contains at least ten sample results, the UTL shall be the upper limit of the area background concentration for the site. If the sample set contains fewer than ten sample results, the maximum value of the sample set shall be the upper limit of the area background concentration for the site.

 

E)  This Prescriptive Approach shall not be used for determining area background for the parameter pH.

 

2)  Another statistically valid approach for determining area background concentrations appropriate for the characteristics of the data set, and approved by the Agency.

 


Section 742.415  Use of Area Background Concentrations

a)  A person may request that area background concentration determined pursuant to Sections 742.405 and 742.410 be used according to the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section. Such request shall address the following:

1)  The natural or man-made pathways of any suspected off-site contamination reaching the site;

2)  Physical and chemical properties of suspected off-site contaminants of concern reaching the site; and

3)  The location and justification of all background sampling points.

b)  Except as specified in subsections (c) and (d) of this Section, an area background concentration may be used as follows:

1)  To support a request to exclude a chemical as a contaminant of concern from further consideration for remediation at a site due to its presence as a result of background conditions; or

2)  As a remediation objective for a contaminant of concern at a site in lieu of an objective developed pursuant to the other procedures of this Part.

c)  An area background concentration shall not be used in the event that the Agency has determined in writing that the background level for a regulated substance poses an acute threat to human health or the environment at the site when considering the post-remedial action land use. (Section 58.5(b)(3) of the Act)

d)  In the event that the concentration of a regulated substance of concern on the site exceeds a remediation objective adopted by the Board for residential land use, the property may not be converted to residential use unless such remediation objective or an alternative risk-based remediation objective for that regulated substance of concern is first achieved. If the land use is restricted, there shall be an institutional control in place in accordance with Subpart J. (Section 58.5(b)(2) of the Act)

SUBPART E: TIER 1 EVALUAION

 
 



Section 742.500  Tier 1 Evaluation Overview
 
Section 742.500 Tier 1 Evaluation Overview
 

a)  A Tier 1 evaluation compares the concentration of each contaminant of concern detected at a site to the baseline remediation objectives provided in Appendix B, Tables A, B, C, D, E, G, H and I. Use of Tier 1 remediation objectives requires only limited site-specific information: concentrations of contaminants of concern, groundwater classification, land use classification, and, if appropriate, soil pH. (See Appendix B, Illustration A.)

 

b)  Although Tier 1 allows for differentiation between residential and industrial/commercial property use of a site, an institutional control under Subpart J is required where remediation objectives are based on an industrial/commercial property use.
 
c)  For the indoor inhalation exposure route:
 
1)  Appendix B, Tables H and I apply only when the existing or potential building has a full concrete slab-on-grade or a full concrete basement floor and walls; and
 
2)  Institutional controls under Subpart J are required to use remediation objectives in Appendix B, Table H or Table I.

 

d)  Any given exposure route is not a concern if the concentration of each contaminant of concern detected at the site is below the Tier 1 value of that given route. In such a case, no further evaluation of that route is necessary.

Back to top



a)  Physical and Chemical Properties of Contaminants

 

Tier 2 evaluations require information on the physical and chemical properties of the contaminants of concern. The physical and chemical properties used in a Tier 2 evaluation are contained in Appendix C, Table E. If the site has contaminants not included in this table, a person may request the Agency to provide the applicable physical and chemical input values or may propose input values under Subpart I. If a person proposes to apply values other than those in Appendix C, Table E, or those provided by the Agency, the evaluation shall be considered under Tier 3.

 

Back to top



b)  Soil and Groundwater Parameters
 

1)  A Tier 2 evaluation requires examination of soil and groundwater parameters. The parameters that may be varied, and the conditions under which these parameters are determined as part of Tier 2, are summarized in Appendix C, Tables B, D, and M. If a person proposes to vary site-specific parameters outside of the framework of these tables, the evaluation shall be considered under Tier 3.

 

2)  To determine site-specific physical soil parameters, a minimum of one boring per 0.5 acre of contamination shall be collected. This boring must be deep enough to allow the collection of the required field measurements. The site-specific physical soil parameters must be determined from the portion of the boring representing the stratigraphic units being evaluated. For example, if evaluating the soil component of the groundwater ingestion exposure route, two samples from the boring will be required:

 

A)  A sample of the predominant soil type for the vadose zone; and

 

B)  A sample of the predominant soil type for the saturated zone.

 

3)  A site-specific SSL dilution factor (used in developing soil remediation objectives based upon the protection of groundwater) may be determined by substituting site information in Equation S22 in Appendix C, Table A. To make this demonstration, a minimum of three monitoring wells shall be used to determine the hydraulic gradient. As an alternative, the default dilution factor value listed in Appendix C, Table B may be used. If monitoring wells are used to determine the hydraulic gradient, the soil taken from the borings shall be visually inspected to ensure there are no significant differences in the stratigraphy. If there are similar soil types in the field, one boring shall be used to determine the site-specific physical soil parameters. If there are significant differences, all of the borings shall be evaluated before determining the site-specific physical soil parameters for the site.

 

4)  Not all of the parameters identified in Appendix C, Tables B, D, and M need to be determined on a site-specific basis. A person may choose to collect partial site-specific information and use default values as listed in Appendix C, Tables B, D, and M for the rest of the parameters.

SUBPART G: TIER 2 SOIL EVALUATION

 
Section 742.700 Tier 2 Soil and Soil Gas Evaluation Overview
 

a)  Tier 2 remediation objectives are developed through the use of models which allow site-specific data to be considered. Appendix C, Tables A, C, and L list equations that shall be used under a Tier 2 evaluation to calculate soil remediation objectives prescribed by the SSL, RBCA, and modified J&E models, respectively. (See also Appendix C, Illustration A.)

 

b)  Appendix C, Table A lists equations that are used under the SSL model. (See also Appendix C, Illustration A.) The SSL model has equations to evaluate the following human exposure routes:

 

1)  Soil ingestion exposure route;

 

2)  Outdoor Inhalation exposure route; and

 

3)  Soil component of the groundwater ingestion exposure route.

 

c)  Evaluation of the dermal exposure route is not required under the SSL model.

 

d)  Appendix C, Table C lists equations that are used under the RBCA model. (See also Appendix C, Illustration A.) The RBCA model has equations to evaluate human exposure based on the following:

 

1)  The combined exposure routes of outdoor inhalation of vapors and particulates, soil ingestion and dermal contact with soil;

 

2)  The outdoor inhalation exposure route from subsurface soils;
 
3)  Soil component of the groundwater ingestion exposure route; and
 
4)  Groundwater ingestion exposure route.

 

e)  Appendix C, Table L lists equations that are used under the modified J&E model. The modified J&E model has equations to evaluate human exposure by the indoor inhalation exposure route. The modified model allows for the development of soil gas remediation objectives. For the indoor inhalation exposure route:
 
1)  Appendix C, Table L applies only when the existing or potential building has a full concrete slab-on-grade or a full concrete basement floor and walls; and
 
2)  Institutional controls under Subpart J are required to develop soil gas remediation objectives pursuant to Appendix C, Table L.

 

f)  The equations in either Appendix C, Table A, C, or L may be used to calculate remediation objectives for each contaminant of concern under Tier 2, if the following requirements are met:

 

1)  The Tier 2 soil or soil gas remediation objectives for the ingestion and outdoor inhalation exposure routes shall use the applicable equations from the same approach (i.e., SSL equations in Appendix C, Table C). For the indoor inhalation exposure route, only the J&E equations can be used.

 

2)  The equations used to calculate soil remediation objectives for the soil component of the groundwater ingestion exposure route are not dependent on the approach utilized to calculate soil remediation objectives for the other exposure routes. For example, it is acceptable to use the SSL equations for calculating Tier 2 soil remediation objectives for the ingestion and outdoor inhalation exposure routes, and the RBCA equations for calculating Tier 2 soil remediation objectives for the soil component of the groundwater ingestion exposure route.

 

3)  Combining equations from Appendix C, Tables A, C, and L to form a new model is not allowed. In addition, Appendix C, Tables A, C, and L must use their own applicable parameters identified in Appendix C, Tables B, D, and M, respectively.

 

g)  In calculating soil or soil gas remediation objectives for industrial/commercial property use, applicable calculations shall be performed twice: once using industrial/commercial population default values and once using construction worker population default values. The more stringent soil or soil gas remediation objectives derived from these calculations must be used for further Tier 2 evaluations. The indoor inhalation exposure route does not apply to the construction worker population.

 

h)  Tier 2 data sheets provided by the Agency shall be used to present calculated Tier 2 remediation objectives, if required by the particular program for which remediation is being performed.

 

i)  The RBCA equations which rely on the parameter Soil Water Sorption Coefficient (ks) can only be used for ionizing organics and inorganics by substituting values for ks from Appendix C, Tables I and J, respectively. This will also require the determination of a site-specific value for soil pH.

 

j)  For the outdoor inhalation exposure route, it is acceptable to use either Section 742.710 to develop a soil remediation objective or Section 742.712 to develop a soil gas remediation objective to determine compliance with the pathway.

Section 742.715 RBCA Soil Equations
 

a)  This Section presents the RBCA model and describes the equations and parameters used to develop Tier 2 soil remediation objectives.

 

b)  Ingestion, Outdoor Inhalation, and Dermal Contact

 

1)  The two sets of equations in subsections (b)(2) and (b)(3) shall be used to generate Tier 2 soil remediation objectives for the combined ingestion, outdoor inhalation, and dermal contact with soil exposure routes.

 

2)  Combined Exposure Routes of Soil Ingestion, Outdoor Inhalation of Vapors and Particulates, and Dermal Contact with Soil
 
A)  Equations R1 and R2 form the basis for deriving Tier 2 remediation objectives for the set of equations that evaluates the combined exposure routes of soil ingestion, outdoor inhalation of vapors and particulates, and dermal contact with soil using the RBCA approach. Equation R1 is used to calculate soil remediation objectives for carcinogenic contaminants. Equation R2 is used to calculate soil remediation objectives for noncarcinogenic contaminants. Soil remediation objectives for the outdoor inhalation exposure route from subsurface soils must also be calculated in accordance with the procedures outlined in subsection (b)(3) of this Section and compared to the values generated from Equations R1 or R2. The smaller value (i.e., R1 and R2 compared to R7 and R8, respectively) from these calculations is the Tier 2 soil remediation objective for the combined exposure routes of soil ingestion, outdoor inhalation, and dermal contact with soil.

 

B)  In Equation R1, numerical values are calculated for two parameters:

 

i)  The volatilization factor for surficial soils (VFss) using Equations R3 and R4; and

 

ii)  The volatilization factor for surficial soils regarding particulates (VFp) using Equation R5.

 

C)  VFss uses Equations R3 and R4 to derive a numerical value. Equation R3 requires the use of Equation R6. Both equations must be used to calculate the VFss. The lowest calculated value from these equations must be substituted into Equation R1.

 

D)  The remaining parameters in Equation R1 have either default values listed in Appendix C, Table D or toxicological-specific information (i.e., SFo, SFi), which can be obtained by following the guidelines in OSWER Directive 9285.7-53, as incorporated by reference in Section 742.210 or requested from the program under which the remediation is being performed.

 

E)  For Equation R2, the parameters VFss and VFp are calculated. The remaining parameters in Equation R2 have either default values listed in Appendix C, Table D or toxicological-specific information (i.e., RfDo, RfDi), which can be obtained by following the guidelines in OSWER Directive 9285.7-53, as incorporated by reference in Section 742.210 or requested from the program under which the remediation is being performed.

 

F)  For chemicals other than inorganics which do not have default values for the dermal absorption factor (RAFd) in Appendix C, Table D a dermal absorption factor of 0.5 shall be used for Equations R1 and R2. For inorganics, dermal absorption may be disregarded (i.e., RAFd = 0).

 

3)  Outdoor Inhalation Exposure Route from Subsurface Soils (soil below one meter)

 

A)  Equations R7 and R8 form the basis for deriving Tier 2 remediation objectives for the outdoor inhalation exposure route from subsurface soils using the RBCA approach. Equation R7 is used to calculate soil remediation objectives for carcinogenic contaminants. Equation R8 is used to calculate soil remediation objectives for noncarcinogenic contaminants.

 

B)  For Equation R7, the carcinogenic risk-based screening level for air (RBSLair) and the volatilization factor for soils below one meter to ambient air (VFsamb) have numerical values that are calculated using Equations R9 and R11, respectively. Both equations rely on input parameters from a variety of sources.

 

C)  The noncarcinogenic risk-based screening level for air (RBSLair) and the volatilization factor for soils below one meter to ambient air (VFsamb) in Equation R8 have numerical values that can be calculated using Equations R10 and R11, respectively.

 

c)  Soil Component of the Groundwater Ingestion Exposure Route

 

1)  Equation R12 forms the basis for deriving Tier 2 remediation objectives for the soil component of the groundwater ingestion exposure route using the RBCA approach. The parameters, groundwater at the source (GWsource) and Leaching Factor (LFsw), have numerical values that are calculated using Equations R13 and R14, respectively.

 

2)  Equation R13 requires numerical values that are calculated using Equation R15.

 

3)  Equation R14 requires numerical values that are calculated using Equations R21, R22, and R24. For non-ionizing organics, the Soil Water Sorption Coefficient (ks) shall be calculated using Equation R20. For ionizing organics and inorganics, the values for ks are listed in Appendix C, Tables I and J, respectively. The pH-dependent ks values for ionizing organics can be calculated using Equation R20 and the pH-dependent Koc values in Appendix C, Table I. The remaining parameters in Equation R14 are field measurements or default values listed in Appendix C, Table D.

 

d)  The default value for GWcomp is the Tier 1 groundwater remediation objective. For chemicals for which there is no Tier 1 groundwater remediation objective, the value for GWcomp shall be the concentration determined according to the procedures specified in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 620, Subpart F. As an alternative to using the above concentrations, GWcomp may be developed using Equations R25 and R26, if approved institutional controls are in place as may be required in Subpart J.

Section 742.717 J&E Soil Gas Equations for the Indoor Inhalation Exposure Route
 


a)  This Section sets forth the equations and parameters to be used to develop Tier 2 soil gas remediation objectives for the indoor inhalation exposure route using the modified J&E model.

 

b)  Equations J&E1 and J&E2 calculate, for carcinogens and noncarcinogens, respectively, an acceptable concentration of the contaminant of concern in indoor air that adequately protects humans who inhale this air. Equation J&E3 converts indoor air concentrations from parts per million volume to milligrams per cubic meter.

 

c)  Equation J&E4 calculates an acceptable concentration of the contaminant of concern in the soil gas at the source of contamination. This calculation is made using:
 
1)  an attenuation factor developed in accordance with Equations J&E7 through 18; and
 
2)  the acceptable concentration of the contaminant of concern in indoor air calculated in accordance with Equation J&E1 (for carcinogens) or J&E2 (for noncarcinogens).

 

d)  The attenuation factor (Equation J&E7 or J&E8) accounts for the following processes:

 

1)  Migration of contaminants from the source upwards through the vadose zone;

 

2)  Migration of contaminants through the earthen filled cracks in the building’s full concrete slab-on-grade or full concrete basement floor and walls; and

 

3)  Mixing of the contaminants with air inside the building.

 

e)  Equation J&E7 must be used when the mode of contaminant transport is both diffusion and advection. In this scenario, the Qsoil value equals 83.33 cm3/sec as described in Section 742.505.

 

f)  Equation J&E8 may be used only when the mode of contaminant transport is diffusion only. In this scenario, the Qsoil value equals 0.0 cm3/sec as described in Section 742.505. As an alternative to using Equation J&E8 pursuant to this subsection, it is permissible to use Equation J&E7, in which case the Qsoil value equals 83.33 cm3/sec as described in Section 742.505.

 

g)  Equations J&E9a through J&E18 calculate input parameters for either Equation J&E7 or J&E8 (the equations used to calculate an attenuation factor). These equations assume there are “n” different soil layers between the source of the contamination and the floor of the building. Equations J&E11, 16, 17 and 18 shall be used to calculate the needed parameters for each of the n layers (the general soil layer is referred to as soil layer “i” and i = 1, 2, . . . n). Equations J&E16, 17, and 18 shall also be used to calculate needed parameters for the soil in the cracks of the building’s full concrete slab-on-grade or full concrete basement floor and walls (it is through these cracks that contaminated soil gas is assumed to flow from the subsurface into the building). As reflected in Equation J&E14, the only crack assumed to be present is the floor-wall seam gap. To calculate the surface area of the enclosed space at or below grade, Equation J&E12a shall be used for a building with a full concrete slab-on-grade and Equation J&E12b shall be used for a building with a full concrete basement floor and walls.

 

h)  The default representative subsurface temperature for Henry’s Law Constant is 13 ° C. This value shall be used, as appropriate, in all calculations needed to represent the system by which contaminants migrate through the subsurface.

 

i)  The calculated soil gas remediation objective shall be compared with the soil vapor saturation limit (Cvsat, Equation J&E5) for each volatile chemical. The calculated Cvsat shall use the default representative subsurface temperature specified in subsection (h). If the calculated soil gas remediation objective is greater than Cvsat, then Cvsat is used as the soil gas remediation objective.

 

j)  The calculated soil gas remediation objective shall be compared to concentrations of soil gas collected at a depth at least 3 feet below ground surface and above the saturated zone. If a valid sample cannot be collected, a soil gas sampling plan shall be approved by the Agency under Tier 3.

Section 742.720  Chemicals with Cumulative Noncarcinogenic Effects
 
Appendix A, Table E lists the groups of chemicals from Appendix B, Tables A and B that have remediation objectives based on noncarcinogenic toxicity and that affect the same target organ. If more than one chemical detected at a site affects the same target organ (i.e., has the same critical effect as defined by the RfD), the initially calculated remediation value for each chemical in the group shall be corrected for cumulative effects by one of the following two methods:
 

a)  Calculate the weighted average using the following equations:

Wave =

where:

Wave= Weighted Average

x1 through xa =  Concentration of each individual contaminant at

the location of concern. Note that, depending on the target organ/mode of action, the actual number of contaminants will range from 2 to 14.


CUOxa =    A Tier 2 remediation objective must be developed
for each xa.

If the value of the weighted average calculated in accordance with the equations above is less than or equal to 1.0, then the remediation objectives are met for those chemicals.

If the value of the weighted average calculated in accordance with the equations above is greater than 1.0, then additional remediation must be carried out until the level of contaminants remaining in the remediated area has a weighted average calculated in accordance with the equation above less than or equal to one.

 

b)  Divide each individual chemical's remediation objective by the number of chemicals in that specific target organ group that were detected at the site. Each of the contaminant concentrations at the site is then compared to the remediation objectives that have been adjusted to account for this potential additivity. For the noncarcinogenic contaminants listed in Appendix A, Table E, a respective soil remediation objective need be no lower than the respective value listed in Appendix B, Table A or B.

Section 742.810 RBCA Calculations to Predict Impacts from Remaining Groundwater Contamination
 

a)  Equation R26 predicts the contaminant concentration along the centerline of a groundwater plume emanating from a vertical planar source in the aquifer (dimensions Sw wide and Sd deep). This model accounts for both three-dimensional dispersion (x is the direction of groundwater flow, y is the other horizontal direction, and z is the vertical direction) and biodegradation.

 

1)  The parameters in this equation are:

 

X =  distance from the planar source to the location of concern, along the centerline of the groundwater plume (i.e., y=0, z=0)

 

Cx =  the concentration of the contaminant at a distance X from the source, along the centerline of the plume

 

Csource =  the greatest potential concentration of the contaminant of concern in the groundwater at the source of the contamination, based on the concentrations of contaminants in groundwater due to the release and the projected concentration of the contaminant migrating from the soil to the groundwater. As indicated above, the model assumes a planar source discharging groundwater at a concentration equal to Csource.

 

ax =  dispersivity in the x direction (i.e., Equation R16)

 

ay =  dispersivity in the y direction (i.e., Equation R17)

 

az =  dispersivity in the z direction (i.e., Equation R18)

 

U =  specific discharge (i.e., actual groundwater flow velocity through a porous medium; takes into account the fact that the groundwater actually flows only through the pores of the subsurface materials) where the aquifer hydraulic conductivity (K), the hydraulic gradient (I) and the total soil porosity q T must be known (i.e., Equation R19)

 

l=  first order degradation constant obtained from Appendix C, Table E or from measured groundwater data

 

Sw =  width of planar groundwater source in the y direction

 

Sd =  depth of planar groundwater source in the z direction

 

2)  The following parameters are determined through field measurements: U, K, I, q T, Sw, Sd.

 

A)  The determination of values for U, K, I and q T can be obtained through the appropriate laboratory and field techniques;

 

B)  From the immediate down-gradient edge of the source of the groundwater contamination values for Sw and Sd shall be determined. Sw is defined as the width of groundwater at the source which exceeds the Tier 1 groundwater remediation objective. Sd is defined as the depth of groundwater at the source which exceeds the Tier 1 groundwater remediation objective; and

 

C)  Total soil porosity can also be calculated using Equation R23.

 

b)  Once values are obtained for all the input parameters identified in subsection (a) of this Section, the contaminant concentration Cx along the centerline of the plume at a distance X from the source shall be calculated so that X is the distance from the down-gradient edge of the source of the contamination at the site to the point where the contaminant concentration is equal to the Tier 1 groundwater remediation objective or concentration determined according to the procedures specified in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 620, Subpart F.
 
1)  If there are any potable water supply wells located within the calculated distance X, then the Tier 1 groundwater remediation objective or concentration shall be met at the edge of the minimum or designated maximum setback zone of the nearest potable water supply down-gradient of the source. To demonstrate that a minimum or maximum setback zone of a potable water supply well will not be impacted above the applicable Tier 1 groundwater remediation objective or concentration determined according to the procedures specified in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 620, Subpart F, X shall be the distance from the Csource location to the edge of the setback zone.

 

2)  To demonstrate that no surface water is adversely impacted, X shall be the distance from the down-gradient edge of the source of the contamination site to the nearest surface water body. This calculation must show that the contaminant in the groundwater at this location (Cx) does not exceed the applicable water quality standard.

Section 742.812 J&E Groundwater Equations for the Indoor Inhalation Exposure Route
 

Groundwater remediation objectives for the indoor inhalation exposure route are calculated using the modified J&E model as described in Section 742.717, except as follows:
 

a)  In Equation J&E9a, the total number of layers of soil that contaminants migrate through from the source to the building shall include a capillary fringe layer.

 

b)  The thickness of the capillary fringe layer is 37.5 cm.

 

c)  The volumetric water content of the capillary fringe shall be 90 % of the total porosity of the soil that comprises the capillary fringe.
 
d)  Equations J&E7 and J&E8 calculate an acceptable groundwater remediation objective.

 

1)  This calculation is made using:
 
A)  the soil gas remediation objective calculated in accordance with Equation J&E4; and
 
B)  the assumption that this gas is in equilibrium with any contamination in the groundwater.

 

2)  Equation J&E7 must be used when the mode of contaminant transport is both diffusion and advection. In this scenario, the Qsoil value equals 83.33 cm3/sec as described in Section 742.505.
 
3)  Equation J&E8 may be used only when the mode of contaminant transport is diffusion only. In this scenario, the Qsoil value equals 0.0 cm3/sec as described in Section 742.505. As an alternative to using Equation J&E8 pursuant to this subsection, it is permissible to use Equation J&E7, in which case the Qsoil value equals 83.33 cm3/sec as described in Section 742.505.

 

e)  A groundwater remediation objective that exceeds the water solubility of that chemical (refer to Appendix C, Table E for solubility values) is not allowed. If the calculated groundwater remediation objective is greater than the water solubility of that chemical, then the solubility is used as the groundwater remediation objective.

SUBPART I: TIER 3 EVALUATION


Section 742.900 Tier 3 Evaluation Overview
 

a)  Tier 3 sets forth a flexible framework to develop remediation objectives outside of the requirements of Tiers 1 and 2. Although Tier 1 and Tier 2 evaluations are not prerequisites to conduct Tier 3 evaluations, data from Tier 1 and Tier 2 can assist in developing remediation objectives under a Tier 3 evaluation.

 

b)  The level of detail required to adequately characterize a site depends on the particular use of Tier 3. Tier 3 can require additional investigative efforts beyond those described in Tier 2 to characterize the physical setting of the site. However, in situations where remedial efforts have simply reached a physical obstruction additional investigation may not be necessary for a Tier 3 submittal.

 

c)  Situations that can be considered for a Tier 3 evaluation include, but are not limited to:

 

1)  Modification of parameters not allowed under Tier 2;

3)  Use of additional site data, such as results of indoor air sampling, to improve or confirm predictions of exposed receptors to contaminants of concern;

 

4)  Analysis of site-specific risks using formal risk assessment, probabilistic data analysis, and sophisticated fate and transport models (e.g., requesting a target hazard quotient greater than 1 or a target cancer risk greater than 1 in 1,000,000);

 

5)  Requests for site-specific remediation objectives because an assessment indicates further remediation is not practical;

 

6)  Incomplete human exposure pathways not excluded under Subpart C;

 

7)  Use of toxicological-specific information not available from the sources listed in Tier 2;

9)  Requests for site-specific remediation objectives that exceed Tier 1 groundwater remediation objectives so long as the following is demonstrated:

 

A)  To the extent practical, the exceedance of the groundwater quality standard has been minimized and beneficial use appropriate to the groundwater that was impacted has been returned; and

 

B)  Any threat to human health or the environment has been minimized [415 ILCS 5/58.5(d)(4)(A)]; and

 

10)  Use of building control technologies, other than those described in Subpart L, to prevent completion of the indoor inhalation exposure route.

 

d)  For requests of a target cancer risk ranging between 1 in 1,000,000 and 1 in 10,000 at the point of human exposure or a target hazard quotient greater than 1 at the point of human exposure, the requirements of Section 742.915 shall be followed. Requests for a target cancer risk exceeding 1 in 10,000 at the point of human exposure are not allowed.

 

e)  Requests for approval of a Tier 3 evaluation must be submitted to the Agency for review under the specific program under which remediation is performed. When reviewing a submittal under Tier 3, the Agency shall consider whether the interpretations and conclusions reached are supported by the information gathered [415 ILCS 58.7(e)(1)]. The Agency shall approve a Tier 3 evaluation if the person submits the information required under this Part and establishes through such information that public health is protected and that specified risks to human health and the environment have been minimized.

 

f)  If contaminants of concern include polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), requests for approval of a Tier 3 evaluation must additionally address the applicability of 40 CFR 761.

Section 742.1015 Ordinances
a) An ordinance adopted by a unit of local government that effectively prohibits the installation of potable water supply wells (and the use of such wells) may be used as an institutional control to meet the requirements of Section 742.320(d) or 742.805(a)(3) if the requirements of this Section are met. A model ordinance is found in Appendix G. Ordinances prohibiting the installation of potable water supply wells (and the use of such wells) that do not expressly prohibit the installation of potable water supply wells (and the use of such wells) by units of local government may be acceptable as institutional controls if the requirements of this Section are met and a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is entered into under subsection (i) of this Section. For purposes of this Section, a unit of local government is considered to be expressly prohibited from installing and using potable water supply wells only if the unit of local government is included in the prohibition provision by name. The prohibition required by this Section shall satisfy the following requirements at a minimum:
1) The prohibition shall not allow exceptions for potable water well installation and use other than for the adopting unit of local government;
2) The prohibition shall apply at all depths and shall not be limited to particular aquifers or other geologic formations;
3) If the prohibition does not apply everywhere within the boundaries of the unit of local government, the limited area to which the prohibition applies shall be easily identifiable and clearly defined by the ordinance (e.g., narrative descriptions accompanied by maps with legends or labels showing prohibition boundaries, or narrative descriptions using fixed, common reference points such as street names). Boundaries of prohibitions limited by area shall be fixed by the terms of the ordinance and shall not be subject to change without amending the ordinance in which the prohibition has been adopted (e.g., no boundaries defined with reference to zoning districts or the availability of the public water supply); and
4) The prohibition shall not in any way restrict or limit the Agency’s approval of the use of the ordinance as an institutional control pursuant to this Part (e.g., no restrictions based on remediation program participation, no restrictions on persons performing remediation within the prohibition area who may use the ordinance).
b) A request for approval of a local ordinance as an institutional control shall provide the following:
1) A copy of the ordinance restricting groundwater use certified by an official of the unit of local government in which the site is located that it is a true and accurate copy of the ordinance, unless the Agency and the unit of local government have entered an agreement under subsection (i) of this Section, in which case the request may alternatively reference the MOU. The ordinance must demonstrate that potable use of groundwater from potable water supply wells is prohibited;
2) A scaled map or maps delineating the area and extent of groundwater contamination modeled above the applicable remediation objectives including any measured data showing concentrations of contaminants of concern in which the applicable remediation objectives are exceeded;
3) A scaled map delineating the boundaries of all properties under which groundwater is located that exceeds the applicable groundwater remediation objectives;
4) Information identifying the current owners of each property identified in subsection (b)(3); and
5) A copy of the proposed written notification to the unit of local government that adopted the ordinance and to the current owners identified in subsection (b)(4) that includes the following information:
A) The name and address of the unit of local government that adopted the ordinance;
B) The ordinance’s citation;
C) A description of the property being sent notice by adequate legal description, reference to a plat showing the boundaries of the property, or accurate street address;
D) Identification of the party requesting to use the groundwater ordinance as an institutional control, and a statement that the party has requested approval from the Agency to use the ordinance as an institutional control;
E) A statement that use of the ordinance as an institutional control allows contamination above groundwater ingestion remediation objectives to remain in groundwater beneath the affected properties, and that the ordinance strictly prohibits human and domestic consumption of the groundwater;
F) A statement as to the nature of the release and response action with the site name, site address, and Agency site number or Illinois inventory identification number; and
G) A statement that more information about the remediation site may be obtained by contacting the party requesting the use of the groundwater ordinance as an institutional control or by submitting a FOIA request to the Agency.
c) Written notification proposed pursuant to subsection (b)(5) must be sent to the unit of local government that adopted the ordinance, as well as to all current property owners identified in subsection (b)(4). Written proof that the notification was sent to the unit of local government and the property owners shall be submitted to the Agency within 45 days from the date the Agency’s no further remediation determination is recorded. Such proof may consist of the return card from certified mail, return receipt requested, a notarized certificate of service, or a notarized affidavit.
d) Unless the Agency and the unit of local government have entered into a MOU under subsection (i), the current owner or successors in interest of a site who have received approval of use of an ordinance as an institutional control under this Section shall:
1) Monitor activities of the unit of local government relative to variance requests or changes in the ordinance relative to the use of potable groundwater at properties identified in subsection (b)(3); and
2) Notify the Agency of any approved variance requests or ordinance changes within 30 days after the date such action has been approved.
e) The information required in subsections (b)(1) through (b)(5) and the Agency letter approving the groundwater remediation objective shall be submitted to the unit of local government. Proof that the information has been filed with the unit of local government shall be provided to the Agency.
f) Any ordinance or MOU used as an institutional control pursuant to this Section shall be recorded in the Office of the Recorder or Registrar of Titles of the county in which the site is located together with the instrument memorializing the Agency's no further remediation determination pursuant to the specific program within 45 days after receipt of the Agency's no further remediation determination.
g) An institutional control approved under this Section shall not become effective until officially recorded in accordance with subsection (f). The person receiving the approval shall obtain and submit to the Agency within 30 days after recording a copy of the institutional control demonstrating that it has been recorded.
h) The following shall be grounds for voidance of the ordinance as an institutional control and the instrument memorializing the Agency’s no further remediation determination:
1) Modification of the ordinance by the unit of local government to allow potable use of groundwater;
2) Approval of a site-specific request, such as a variance, to allow potable use of groundwater at a site identified in subsection (b)(3);
3) Violation of the terms of an institutional control recorded under Section 742.1005 or Section 742.1010; or
4) Failure to provide notification and proof of such notification pursuant to subsection (c).
i) The Agency and a unit of local government may enter into a MOU under this Section if the unit of local government has adopted an ordinance satisfying subsection (a) and if the requirements of this subsection are met. The MOU submitted to the Agency must match the form and contain the same substance as the model in Appendix H and shall include the following:
1) Identification of the authority of the unit of local government to enter the MOU;
2) Identification of the legal boundaries, or equivalent, under which the ordinance is applicable;
3) A certified copy of the ordinance;
4) A commitment by the unit of local government to notify the Agency of any variance requests or proposed ordinance changes at least 30 days prior to the date the local government is scheduled to take action on the request or proposed change;
5) A commitment by the unit of local government to maintain a registry of all sites within the unit of local government that have received no further remediation determinations pursuant to specific programs; and
6) If the ordinance does not expressly prohibit the installation of potable water supply wells (and the use of such wells) by units of local government, a commitment by the unit of local government:
A) To review the registry of sites established under subsection (i)(5) prior to siting potable water supply wells within the area covered by the ordinance;
B) To determine whether the potential source of potable water may be or has been affected by contamination left in place at those sites; and
C) To take whatever steps are necessary to ensure that the potential source of potable water is protected from the contamination or treated before it is used as a potable water supply.
j) A groundwater ordinance may not be used to exclude the indoor inhalation exposure route.

NA means not available; no PQL or EQL available in USEPA analytical methods.
 
 


Chemical Name and Soil Remediation Objective Notations
 

a  Soil remediation objectives based on human health criteria only.
b  Calculated values correspond to a target hazard quotient of 1.
c  No toxicity criteria available for the route of exposure.
d  Soil saturation concentration (C [sat]) = the concentration at which the absorptive limits of the soil particles, the solubility limits of the available soil moisture, and saturation of soil pore air have been reached. Above the soil saturation concentration, the assumptions regarding vapor transport to air and/or dissolved phase transport to groundwater (for chemicals which are liquid at ambient soil temperatures) have been violated, and alternative modeling approaches are required.
e  Calculated values correspond to a cancer risk level of 1 in 1,000,000.
g  Chemical-specific properties are such that this route is not of concern at any soil contaminant concentration.
h  40 CFR 761 contains applicability requirements and methodologies for the development of PCB remediation objectives. Requests for approval of a Tier 3 evaluation must address the applicability of 40 CFR 761.
I  Soil remediation objective for pH of 6.8. If soil pH is other than 6.8, refer to Appendix B, Tables C and D of this Part.
j  Ingestion soil remediation objective adjusted by a factor of 0.5 to account for dermal route.
k  A preliminary remediation goal of 400 mg/kg has been set for lead based on Revised Interim Soil Lead Guidance for CERCLA Sites and RCRA Corrective Action Facilities, OSWER Directive #9355.4-12.
l  Potential for soil-plant-human exposure.
m  The person conducting the remediation has the option to use: 1) TCLP or SPLP test results to compare with the remediation objectives listed in this Table; 2) where applicable, the total amount of contaminant in the soil sample results to compare with pH specific remediation objectives listed in Appendix B, Table C or D of this Part (see Section 742.510); or 3) the appropriate background value listed in Appendix A, Table G. If the person conducting the remediation wishes to calculate soil remediation objectives based on background concentrations, this should be done in accordance with Subpart D of this Part.
n  The Agency reserves the right to evaluate the potential for remaining contaminant concentrations to pose significant threats to crops, livestock, or wildlife.
o  For agrichemical facilities, remediation objectives for surficial soils which are based on field application rates may be more appropriate for currently registered pesticides. Consult the Agency for further information.
p  For agrichemical facilities, soil remediation objectives based on site-specific background concentrations of Nitrate as N may be more appropriate. Such determinations shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures set forth in Subparts D and I of this Part.
q  The TCLP extraction must be done using water at a pH of 7.0.
r  Value based on dietary Reference Dose.
s  Value for Ingestion based on Reference Dose for Mercuric chloride (CAS No. 7487-94-7); value for Inhalation based on Reference Concentration for elemental Mercury (CAS No. 7439-97-6). Inhalation remediation objective only applies at sites where elemental mercury is a contaminant of concern.
t  For the ingestion route for arsenic, see 742.Appendix A, Table G.
u  Value based on Reference Dose for Thallium sulfate (CAS No. 7446-18-6).
v  Value based on Reference Dose adjusted for dietary intake.
w  For sites located in any populated area as defined in Section 742.200, Appendix A, Table H may be used.
x  The remediation objectives for these chemicals must also include the construction worker inhalation objective in Appendix B, Table B.

“*” indicates that the ADL is less than or equal to the specified remediation objective.
 
NA means Not Available; no PQL or EQL available in USEPA analytical methods.
 
Chemical Name and Soil Remediation Objective Notations (2nd, 5th thru 8th Columns)
 

a   oil remediation objectives based on human health criteria only.
b  Calculated values correspond to a target hazard quotient of 1.
c  No toxicity criteria available for this route of exposure.
d  Soil saturation concentration (C[sat]) = the concentration at which the absorptive limits of the soil particles, the solubility limits of the available soil moisture, and saturation of soil pore air have been reached. Above the soil saturation concentration, the assumptions regarding vapor transport to air and/or dissolved phase transport to groundwater (for chemicals which are liquid at ambient soil temperatures) have been violated, and alternative modeling approaches are required.
e  Calculated values correspond to a cancer risk level of 1 in 1,000,000.
g  Chemical-specific properties are such that this route is not of concern at any soil contaminant concentration.
h  40 CFR 761 contains applicability requirements and methodologies for the development of PCB remediation objectives. Requests for approval of a Tier 3 evaluation must address the applicability of 40 CFR 761.
i  Soil remediation objective for pH of 6.8. If soil pH is other than 6.8, refer to Appendix B, Tables C and D in this Part.
j  Ingestion soil remediation objective adjusted by a factor of 0.5 to account for dermal route.
l  Potential for soil-plant-human exposure.
m  The person conducting the remediation has the option to use: (1) TCLP or SPLP test results to compare with the remediation objectives listed in this Table; (2) the total amount of contaminant in the soil sample results to compare with pH specific remediation objectives listed in Appendix B, Table C or D of this Part (see Section 742.510); or (3) the appropriate background value listed in Appendix A, Table G. If the person conducting the remediation wishes to calculate soil remediation objectives based on background concentrations, this should be done in accordance with Subpart D of this Part.
n  The Agency reserves the right to evaluate the potential for remaining contaminant concentrations to pose significant threats to crops, livestock, or wildlife.
o  For agrichemical facilities, remediation objectives for surficial soils which are based on field application rates may be more appropriate for currently registered pesticides. Consult the Agency for further information.
p  For agrichemical facilities, soil remediation objectives based on site-specific background concentrations of Nitrate as N may be more appropriate. Such determinations shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures set forth in Subparts D and I of this Part.
q  The TCLP extraction must be done using water at a pH of 7.0.
r  Value based on dietary Reference Dose.
s  Value for Ingestion based on Reference Dose for Mercuric chloride (CAS No. 7487-94-7); value for Inhalation based on Reference Concentration for elemental Mercury (CAS No. 7439-97-6). Inhalation remediation objective only applies at sites where elemental mercury is a contaminant of concern.
t  For the ingestion route for arsenic for industrial/commercial, see 742.Appendix A, Table G.
u  Value based on Reference Dose for Thallium sulfate (CAS No. 7446-18-6).
w  Value based on Reference Dose adjusted for dietary intake.
x  For any populated areas as defined in Section 742.200, Appendix A, Table H may be used.
y  Value based on maintaining fetal blood lead below 10 ug/d1, using the USEPA adults Blood Lead Model.

a  For the outdoor inhalation exposure route, it is acceptable to determine compliance by meeting either the soil or soil gas remediation objectives. The soil remediation objectives for the outdoor inhalation route are located in Appendix B, Tables A and B.
 
b  Calculated values correspond to a target hazard quotient of 1.
 
c  Calculated values correspond to a cancer risk level of 1 in 1,000,000.
 
d  PCBs are a mixture of different congeners. The appropriate values to use for the physical/chemical and toxicity parameters depend on the congeners present at the site. Persons remediating sites should consult with IEPA Bureau of Land (BOL) if calculation of Tier 2 or 3 remediation objectives is desired.
 
e  The value shown is the Cvsat value of the chemical in soil gas.  The Cvsat of the chemical becomes the remediation objective if the calculated value exceeds the Cvsat value or if there are no toxicity criteria available for the inhalation route of exposure.
 
f  Value for the inhalation exposure route is based on Reference Concentration for elemental Mercury (CAS No. 7439-97-6).  Inhalation remediation objectives only apply at sites where elemental Mercury is a contaminant of concern.

Chemical Name and Remediation Objective Notations
 

a  Compliance is determined by meeting either the soil gas remediation objectives or the groundwater remediation objectives. See Sections 742.505 and 742.515.
 
b  Calculated values correspond to a target hazard quotient of 1.
 
c  Calculated values correspond to a cancer risk level of 1 in 1,000,000.
 
d  PCBs are a mixture of different congeners. The appropriate values to use for the physical/chemical and toxicity parameters depend on the congeners present at the site. Persons remediating sites should consult with BOL if calculation of Tier 2 or 3 remediation objectives is desired.
 
e  Groundwater remediation objective calculated at 25°C.  For Dalapon and 1,2-Dibromo-3-chloropropane, the critical temperature (Tc) and enthalpy of vaporization at the normal boiling point (Hv,b) are not available. For Xylenes (total), the enthalpy of vaporization at the normal boiling point (Hv,b) is not available.
 
f  The value shown is the Cvsat value of the chemical in soil gas.  The Cvsat of the chemical becomes the remediation objective if the calculated value exceeds the Cvsat value or if there are no toxicity criteria available for the inhalation route of exposure.
 
g  The value shown is the solubility of the chemical in water.  The solubility of the chemical becomes the remediation objective if the calculated value exceeds the solubility or if there are no toxicity criteria available for the ingestion route of exposure.
 
h  Value for the inhalation exposure route is based on Reference Concentration for elemental Mercury (CAS No. 7439-97-6).  Inhalation remediation objectives only apply at sites where elemental Mercury is a contaminant of concern.
 
i  The value shown is the Groundwater Remediation Objective listed in Appendix B, Table E.
 
j  Calculated values for the remediation objectives in this table are based on the assumption that the existing or potential building has a full concrete slab-on-grade, though the remediation objectives in this table are also considered protective of occupants of buildings with full concrete basement floors and walls. This table applies only when the existing or potential building has a full concrete slab-on-grade or a full concrete basement floor and walls. Institutional controls under Subpart J are required to use remediation objectives in this table. This table does not apply when the existing or potential building has neither a full concrete slab-on-grade nor a full concrete basement floor and walls, such as a building with an earthen crawl space, an earthen floor, a stone foundation, a partial concrete floor, or a sump. In such cases, site evaluators have the option of excluding the indoor inhalation exposure route under Section 742.312, meeting the building control technology requirements under Subpart L, or proposing an alternative approach under Tier 3.

Chemical Name and Remediation Objective Notations
 

a  Compliance is determined by meeting both the soil gas remediation objectives and the groundwater remediation objectives. See Sections 742.505 and 742.515.
 
b  Remediation objectives relying on this table require use of institutional controls in accordance with Subpart J.
 
c  Calculated values correspond to a target hazard quotient of 1.
 
d  Calculated values correspond to a cancer risk level of 1 in 1,000,000.
 
e  PCBs are a mixture of different congeners. The appropriate values to use for the physical/chemical and toxicity parameters depend on the congeners present at the site. Persons remediating sites should consult with BOL if calculation of Tier 2 or 3 remediation objectives is desired
 
f  Groundwater remediation objective calculated at 25°C. For Dalapon and 1,2-Dibromo-3-chloropropane, the critical temperature (Tc) and enthalpy of vaporization at the normal boiling point (Hv,b) are not available. For Xylenes (total), the enthalpy of vaporization at the normal boiling point (Hv,b) is not available.
 
g  The value shown is the Cvsat value of the chemical in soil gas.  The Cvsat of the chemical becomes the remediation objective if the calculated value exceeds the Cvsat value or if there are no toxicity criteria available for the inhalation route of exposure.
 
h  The value shown is the solubility of the chemical in water. The solubility of the chemical becomes the remediation objective if the calculated value exceeds the solubility or if there are no toxicity criteria available for the inhalation route of exposure.
 
i  Value for the inhalation exposure route is based on Reference Concentration for elemental Mercury (CAS No. 7439-97-6).  Inhalation remediation objectives only apply at sites where elemental Mercury is a contaminant of concern.

 

j  Calculated values for the remediation objectives in this table are based on the assumption that the existing or potential building has a full concrete slab-on-grade, though the remediation objectives in this table are also considered protective of occupants of buildings with full concrete basement floors and walls. This table applies only when the existing or potential building has a full concrete slab-on-grade or a full concrete basement floor and walls. Institutional controls under Subpart J are required to use remediation objectives in this table. This table does not apply when the existing or potential building has neither a full concrete slab-on-grade nor a full concrete basement floor and walls, such as a building with an earthen crawl space, an earthen floor, a stone foundation, a partial concrete floor, or a sump. In such cases, site evaluators have the option of excluding the indoor inhalation exposure route under Section 742.312, meeting the building control technology requirements under Subpart L, or proposing an alternative approach under Tier 3.

Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry number. This number in the format xxx-xx-x, is unique for each chemical and allows efficient searching on computerized data bases.

a  Soil remediation objectives are determined pursuant to 40 CFR 761, as incorporated by reference at Section 742.210(b) (the USEPA “PCB Spill Cleanup Policy”), for most sites; persons remediating sites should consult with BOL if calculation of Tier 2 or 3 remediation objectives is desired. PCBs are a mixture of different congeners. The appropriate values to use for the physical/chemical parameters depend on congeners present at the site.

b  Dimensionless Henry’s Law Constant at 13°C is not calculated because the chemical is not volatile and does not require evaluation under the indoor inhalation exposure route.

c  Dimensionless Henry’s Law Constant = 20°C

d  These chemicals are ionizing and its Koc value will change with pH. The Koc values listed in this table is the effective Koc at pH of 6.8. If the site-specific pH is values other than 6.8, the Koc value listed in Section 742, Appendix C, Table I should be used.

e  The values in this table were taken from the following sources (in order of preference): SCDMS online database (http://www.epa.gov/superfund/sites/npl/hrsres/tools/scdm.htm ); CHEMFATE online database (http://www.srcinc.com/what-we-do/databaseforms.aspx?id=381 ); PhysProp online database (http://www.srcinc.com/what-we-do/databaseforms.aspx?id-386 ); Water9 (http://www.epa.gov/ttn/chief/software/water/ ) for diffusivity values; and Handbook of Environmental Degradation Rates by P.H. Howard (1991) for first order degradation constant values.

a  This table contains equations based on the assumption that the existing or potential building has a full concrete slab-on-grade or a full concrete basement floor and walls. This table applies only when the existing or potential building has a full concrete slab-on-grade or a full concrete basement floor and walls. Institutional controls under Subpart J are required to develop remediation objectives pursuant to this table. This table does not apply when the existing or potential building has neither a full concrete slab-on-grade nor a full concrete basement floor and walls, such as a building with an earthen crawl space, an earthen floor, a stone foundation, a partial concrete floor, or a sump. In such cases, site evaluators have the option of excluding the indoor inhalation exposure route under Section 742.312, meeting the building control technology requirements under Subpart L, or proposing an alternative approach under Tier 3.

HIGHWAY AUTHORITY AGREEMENT
 

  This Agreement is entered into this ____ day of ________________, 200_ pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742.1020 by and between the (1)__________________ (“Property Owner”) [or, in the case of a petroleum leaking underground storage tank, the owner/operator of the tank   (“Owner/Operator”)] and (2) Name of Entity in Control of the Right-of-Way (“Highway Authority”), collectively known as the “Parties.”
 
  [Use this paragraph for sites with petroleum leaking underground storage tank(s)]    WHEREAS, ___________________ is the owner or operator of one or more leaking underground storage tanks presently or formerly located at common address or description of Site location (“the Site”);
 
  [Use this paragraph for sites that do not have petroleum leaking underground storage tanks]    WHEREAS , ____________________ is the owner of the property located at common address or description of Site location (“the Site”);
 
WHEREAS, as a result of one or more releases of contaminants [ insert either “from the above referenced underground storage tanks” or “at the above referenced Site” ] (“the Release(s)”), soil and/or groundwater contamination at the Site exceeds the Tier 1 residential remediation objectives of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742;
 
  WHEREAS, the soil and/or groundwater contamination exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives extends or may extend into the Highway Authority’s right-of-way;
 
  WHEREAS, the Owner/Operator or Property Owner is conducting corrective action in response to the Release(s);
 
  WHEREAS, the Parties desire to prevent groundwater beneath the Highway Authority’s right-of-way that exceeds Tier 1 remediation objectives from use as a supply of potable or domestic water and to limit access to soil within the right-of-way that exceeds Tier 1 residential remediation objectives so that human health and the environment are protected during and after any access;
 
  NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:
 

1.   The recitals set forth above are incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.

 

2 .   [Use this paragraph if IEMA has issued an incident number] The Illinois Emergency Management Agency has assigned incident number(s)     to the Release(s).

 

3.   Attached as Exhibit A is a scaled map(s) prepared by the [Owner/Operator or Property Owner] that shows the Site and surrounding area and delineates the current and estimated future extent of soil and groundwater contamination above the applicable Tier 1 residential remediation objectives as a result of the Release(s). [Use the following sentence if either soil or groundwater is not contaminated above applicable Tier 1 residential remediation objectives: [Soil] [Groundwater] is not contaminated above the applicable Tier 1 residential remediation objectives. ]

 

4.   Attached as Exhibit B is a table(s) prepared by the [Owner/Operator or Property Owner] that lists each contaminant of concern that exceeds its Tier 1 residential remediation objective, its Tier 1 residential remediation objective and its concentrations within the zone where Tier 1 residential remediation objectives are exceeded. The locations of the concentrations listed in Exhibit B are identified on the map(s) in Exhibit A.

 

5.   Attached as Exhibit C is a scaled map prepared by the [Owner/Operator or Property Owner] showing the area of the Highway Authority’s right-of-way that is governed by this agreement (“Right-of-Way”). Because Exhibit C is not a surveyed plat, the Right-of-Way boundary may be an approximation of the actual Right-of-Way lines.

 

6.   [Use this paragraph if samples have not been collected within the Right-of-Way, sampling within the Right-of-Way is not practical, and contamination does not extend beyond the Right-of-Way]. Because the collection of samples within the Right-of-Way is not practical, the Parties stipulate that, based on modeling, soil and groundwater contamination exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives does not and will not extend beyond the boundaries of the Right-of-Way.

 

7.   The Highway Authority stipulates it has jurisdiction over the Right-of-Way that gives it sole control over the use of the groundwater and access to the soil located within or beneath the Right-of-Way.

 

8.   The Highway Authority agrees to prohibit within the Right-of-Way all potable and domestic uses of groundwater exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives.

 

9.   The Highway Authority further agrees to limit access by itself and others to soil within the Right-of-Way exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives. Access shall be allowed only if human health (including worker safety) and the environment are protected during and after any access. The Highway Authority may construct, reconstruct, improve, repair, maintain and operate a highway upon the Right-of-Way, or allow others to do the same by permit. In addition, the Highway Authority and others using or working in the Right-of-Way under permit have the right to remove soil or groundwater from the Right-of-Way and dispose of the same in accordance with applicable environmental laws and regulations. The Highway Authority agrees to issue all permits for work in the Right-of-Way, and make all existing permits for work in the Right-of-Way, subject to the following or a substantially similar condition:

 

As a condition of this permit the permittee shall request the office issuing this permit to identify sites in the Right-of-Way where a Highway Authority Agreement governs access to soil that exceeds the Tier 1 residential remediation objectives of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742. The permittee shall take all measures necessary to protect human health (including worker safety) and the environment during and after any access to such soil.

 

10.   This agreement shall be referenced in the Agency’s no further remediation determination issued for the Release(s).

 

11.   The Agency shall be notified of any transfer of jurisdiction over the Right-of-Way at least 30 days prior to the date the transfer takes effect. This agreement shall be null and void upon the transfer unless the transferee agrees to be bound by this agreement as if the transferee were an original party to this agreement. The transferee’s agreement to be bound by the terms of this agreement shall be memorialized at the time of transfer in a writing ("Rider") that references this Highway Authority Agreement and is signed by the Highway Authority, or subsequent transferor, and the transferee.

 

12.   This agreement shall become effective on the date the Agency issues a no further remediation determination for the Release(s). It shall remain effective until the Right-of-Way is demonstrated to be suitable for unrestricted use and the Agency issues a new no further remediation determination to reflect there is no longer a need for this agreement, or until the agreement is otherwise terminated or voided.

 

13.   In addition to any other remedies that may be available, the Agency may bring suit to enforce the terms of this agreement or may, in its sole discretion, declare this agreement null and void if any of the Parties or any transferee violates any term of this agreement. The Parties or transferee shall be notified in writing of any such declaration.

 

14.   This agreement shall be null and void if a court of competent jurisdiction strikes down any part or provision of the agreement.

 

15.   This agreement supersedes any prior written or oral agreements or understandings between the Parties on the subject matter addressed herein. It may be altered, modified or amended only upon the written consent and agreement of the Parties.

 

16.   Any notices or other correspondence regarding this agreement shall be sent to the Parties at following addresses:

  WHEREAS, 415 ILCS 5/58.17 and 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742 provide for the use of an ELUC as an institutional control in order to impose land use limitations or requirements related to environmental contamination so that persons conducting remediation can obtain a No Further Remediation determination from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“IEPA”). The reason for an ELUC is to ensure protection of human health and the environment. The limitations and requirements contained herein are necessary in order to protect against exposure to contaminated soil, groundwater, or soil gas that may be present on the property as a result of [ VARIABLE ] activities. Under 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742, the use of risk-based, site-specific remediation objectives may require the use of an ELUC on real property, and the ELUC may apply to certain physical features (e.g., engineered barriers, indoor inhalation building control technologies, monitoring wells, caps, etc.).
 
WHEREAS, __________________ [ the party performing remediation ] intends to request risk-based, site specific soil, groundwater, or soil gas remediation objectives from IEPA under 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742 to obtain risk-based closure of the site, identified by Bureau of Land [ 10-digit LPC or Identification number ] _________________ , utilizing an ELUC.

 

  NOW, THEREFORE, the recitals set forth above are incorporated by reference as if fully

 
set forth herein, and the Property Owner agrees as follows:

  Attached as Exhibit B are site maps that show the legal boundary of the Property, any physical features to which the ELUC applies, the horizontal and vertical extent of the contaminants of concern above the applicable remediation objectives for soil, groundwater, or soil gas, and the nature, location of the source, and direction of movement of the contaminants of concern, as required under 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742.
 
  Section Two. Property Owner represents and warrants he/she is the current owner of the Property and has the authority to record this ELUC on the chain of title for the Property with the Office of the Recorder or Registrar of Titles in ___________ County, Illinois.
 
Section Three. The Property Owner hereby agrees, for himself/herself , and his/her heirs, grantees, successors, assigns, transferees and any other owner, occupant, lessee, possessor or user of the Property or the holder of any portion thereof or interest therein, that [ INSERT RESTRICTION (e.g. the groundwater under the Property shall not be used as a potable supply of water, and any contaminated groundwater or soil that is removed, excavated, or disturbed from the Property described in Exhibit A herein must be handled in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations )].
 
  Section Four. This ELUC is binding on the Property Owner, his/her heirs, grantees, successors, assigns, transferees and any other owner, occupant, lessee, possessor or user of the Property or the holder of any portion thereof or interest therein. This ELUC shall apply in perpetuity against the Property and shall not be released until the IEPA determines there is no longer a need for this ELUC as an institutional control; until the IEPA, upon written request, issues to the site that received the no further remediation determination a new no further remediation determination approving modification or removal of the limitation(s) or requirement(s); the new no further remediation determination is filed on the chain of title of the site subject to the no further remediation determination; and until a release or modification of the land use limitation or requirement is filed on the chain of title for the Property.
 
  Section Five. Information regarding the remediation performed on the Property may be obtained from the IEPA through a request under the Freedom of Information Act (5 ILCS 140) and rules promulgated thereunder by providing the IEPA with the [10-digit LPC or identification number] listed above.

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN ___________________________ AND THE ILLINOIS ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY REGARDING THE USE OF A LOCAL GROUNDWATER OR WATER WELL ORDINANCE AS AN ENVIRONMENTAL INSTITUTIONAL CONTROL

 
 

I.   PURPOSE AND INTENT

 

A.   This Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) between _________________________ and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“Illinois EPA”) is entered into for the purpose of satisfying the requirements of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742.1015 for the use of groundwater or water well ordinances as environmental institutional controls. The Illinois EPA has reviewed the groundwater or water well ordinance of _______________________ (Attachment A) and determined that the ordinance prohibits the use of groundwater for potable purposes and/or the installation and use of new potable water supply wells by private entities but does not expressly prohibit those activities by the unit of local government itself. In such cases, 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742.1015(a) provides that the unit of local government may enter into an MOU with the Illinois EPA to allow the use of the ordinance as an institutional control.

 

B.   The intent of this Memorandum of Understanding is to specify the responsibilities that must be assumed by the unit of local government to satisfy the requirements for MOUs as set forth at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742.1015(i).

 
 

II.   DECLARATIONS AND ASSUMPTION OF RESPONSIBILITY

 
In order to ensure the long-term integrity of the groundwater or water well ordinance as an environmental institutional control and that risk to human health and the environment from contamination left in place in reliance on the groundwater or water well ordinance is effectively managed, ___________________________ hereby assumes the following responsibilities pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742.1015(d)(2) and (i):
 

A.   ________________________ will notify the Illinois EPA Bureau of Land of any proposed ordinance changes or requests for variance at least 30 days prior to the date the local government is scheduled to take action on the proposed change or request (35 Ill. Adm. Code 742.1015(i)(4));

 

B.   _________________________ will maintain a registry of all sites within its corporate limits that have received “No Further Remediation” determinations in reliance on the ordinance from the Illinois EPA (35 Ill. Adm. Code 742.1015(i)(5));

 

C.   _________________________ will review the registry of sites established under paragraph II. B. prior to siting public potable water supply wells within the area covered by the ordinance (35 Ill. Adm. Code 742.1015(i)(6)(A));

 

D.   _________________________ will determine whether the potential source of potable water has been or may be affected by contamination left in place at the sites tracked and reviewed under paragraphs II. B. and C. (35 Ill. Adm. Code 742.1015(i)(6)(B)); and

 

E.   _________________________ will take action as necessary to ensure that the potential source of potable water is protected from contamination or treated before it is used as a potable water supply (35 Ill. Adm. Code 742.1015(i)(6)(C)).
