ILLINOIS POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD

February 5, 1998

IN THE MATTER OF:

)

CLEAN-UP AMENDMENTS TO 35 ILL. ADM.

) R98-15

CODE 215 (Emission Standards and Limitations

) (Rulemaking - Air)

for Stationary Sources located outside the Chicago

)

and Metro East Ozone Non-attainment Areas)

)

Proposed Rule. First Notice.

OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by R.C. Flemal):

This matter comes before the Board upon a petition for rulemaking filed on October

30, 1997, by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency). The Agency requests

that the Board amend Subparts A (General Provisions), F (Coating Operations), and Z (Dry

Cleaners) of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 215 to achieve consistency between these subparts and other

Board regulations dealing with volatile organic material (VOM) emissions from stationary

emission sources.

A principal feature of the proposal is deletion of provisions from Part 215 that are

duplicated in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211, 218, and 219. These include duplicated definitions and

various duplicated provisions that apply only in the non-attainment areas of the state.

The Agency also recommends deletion of several obsolete provisions from Part 215,

addition to Part 215 of certain exemption provisions available to emission units in non-

attainment areas, and change of some word usage to comport Part 215 with other Board VOM

regulations

The Board's responsibility in this matter arises from the Environmental Protection Act

(Act) (415 ILCS 5/1

et seq

. (1996)). The Board is charged therein to “determine, define and

implement the environmental control standards applicable in the State of Illinois.” 415 ILCS

5/5(b). More generally, the Board's rulemaking charge is based on the system of checks and

balances integral to Illinois environmental governance: the Board bears responsibility for the

rulemaking and principal adjudicatory functions; the Agency has primary responsibility for

administration of the Act and the Board's regulations, including the regulations today proposed

for amendment.

By today's action the Board adopts the proposed amendments for first notice, pursuant

to the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act (5 ILCS 100/1-1

et seq

. (1996)). Publication in

the

Illinois Register

will follow today's action, whereupon a 45-day public comment period

will begin during which interested persons may file public comment with the Board.

PROCEDURAL HISTORY

By order of November 6, 1997, the Board accepted this matter for hearing. By the

same order the Board granted the Agency’s motion for expedited hearing, consistent with the

Board’s resources and decision deadlines.

Hearings were held before Board hearing officer Audrey Lozuk-Lawless on December

18, 1997, in Chicago and on December 22, 1997, in Springfield.

The Agency presented two

witnesses, Mr. Gary E. Beckstead, Environmental Protection Engineer in the Agency’s Bureau

of Air, and Dan Punzak of the Permit Section of the Agency’s Bureau of Air. Testimony was

also received from Mr. Charles Gjersvik of the firm of Goodwin & Broms, Inc., and from

Cassandra J. Donelan of the Illinois Environmental Regulatory Group.

Two public comments were filed during the post hearing public comment period. The first, PC 1, was

filed by Sundstrand Corporation. Sundstrand expresses support for the Agency’s proposal. In the second public

comment the Agency addresses a number of issues raised at hearing (see discussion below).

BACKGROUND AND PROPOSAL OVERVIEW

35 Ill. Adm. Code 215 was originally developed to house the Board’s regulations that

deal with standards and limitations on air emissions from stationary sources. It initially housed

regulations applicable throughout the state. However, as air emission regulations became both

more complex and more geographically specific, it was deemed that special parts dealing with

the two non-attainment areas, the Chicago and Metro East areas, were necessary.

Accordingly, in 1991 the Board opened new Parts 218 and 219 addressing the two non-

attainment areas, respectively.

In this scheme, Part 215 came by default to contain the

stationary source regulations applicable in the attainment areas (i.e., in areas other than the

Chicago and Metro East areas).

Since 1991 most of the amendatory activity in the stationary source regulations has

occurred within the new Parts 218 and 219, and in the general support parts, Parts 201 and

211. Part 215 has generally been left unattended, with the result that it has accumulated

inconsistencies, including some duplication, with the actively evolving parts. The principal

purpose of today’s action is to correct these inconsistencies between parts, as well as to clean

up certain inconsistencies within Part 215 itself.

Definitions

Transcripts of the two hearings are cited herein as “Tr1. at __” and “Tr2. at ___”,

respectively.

The Chicago non-attainment area consists of the counties of Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake,

McHenry, and Will, plus the townships of Aux Sable and Goose Lake in Grundy County and

Oswego in Kendall County. The Metro East non-attainment area consists of the counties of

Madison, Monroe, and St. Clair.

Definitions that support the Board’s air regulations occur within 35 Ill. Adm. Code 201

and 211. These definitions apply to Part 215.

Some of the terms defined in Part 211 are

repeated in Part 215 at Section 215.104. In today’s action it is proposed at all definitions

contained at Section 215.104 that are identical to definitions found in Part 201 or Part 211 be

deleted. The purpose is avoid duplication and any confusion that might result from the

duplication.

Deletion of all the definitions that are duplicates would leave just four definitions

within Section 215.104. Each of these are definitions is particular to Part 215. Tr1. at 11-15;

PC 2 at 2.

One of the four definitions that would remain is proposed for be amended to correct a

typographical error in the definition of “Reid Vapor Pressure” to include the correct

abbreviation of pounds per square inch absolute.

Replacement of “Source” by “Emission Unit”

In various places in today’s proposal the term “source” or “emission source” is

proposed to be replaced with the term “emission unit”. The latter term has become the

standard term of act used throughout federal and state VOM regulations, and today’s changes

are intended to comport Part 215 with this current usage.

Duplicated Regulatory Requirements

Part 215 contains several regulatory provisions that are duplicated in Parts 218 and

219. These consist of non-attainment area regulations that predate the opening of Parts 218

and 219, were duplicated there, but never removed from Part 215. These provisions occur in

215.Subpart F at 215.204(a)(1), 215.204(k)(1), and 215.204(m). Under the instant proposal

these duplicated provisions are deleted, with renumbering of subsections as warranted.

2,500 gal/yr Coating Exemption

Today’s proposal adds a provision that would exempt a coating plant from the Part 215

requirements if the total coating usage is less than 2,500 gallons per year (9,463 L/yr). See

proposed 35 Ill. Adm. Code 215.206(a)(2). The Agency believes that a coating plant that uses

coatings at this volume is a

de minimus

emissions source. Statement of Reasons at 3; Tr2. at

At hearing Mr. Charles Gjersvik recommended that the exemption level be set at 5,000

gallons per year rather than 2,500 gallons per year. Tr2. at 17-18. Mr. Gjersvik observed

See 35 Ill. Adm. Code 215.104, which states in pertinent part that “the definitions of 35 Ill.

Adm. Code 201 and 211 apply to . . . part [215].”

that pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 201.146(g) painting operations that use less than 5,000

gallons per year of paint are exempt from permitting requirements. Mr. Gjersvik noted that

“compliance by small coating plants can be made much simpler if the permit exemption and

the emission limitation exemption go hand-in-hand.” Tr2. at 17. He further contended that

use of the higher exemption limit would produce such a small increase VOM emissions as to

have “no discernible effect on ozone levels”. Tr2. at 18. The Agency disagrees with this

contention, noting that the difference in allowable emissions could be as much as 10 tons per

year. PC 2 at 5. The Agency concludes that the 2,500 gallons per year limit remains in “the

best interest of the environment.” PC 2 at 5.

Based on the record before the Board, the Board agrees with the Agency that the 2,500

gallon per year exemption limit constitutes the appropriate

de minimus

usage limit. On that

basis the Board proposes the 2,500 gallons per year limit for first notice.

Clarification of the Definition of “Coating”

Mr. Gjersvik further proposed at hearing that neither powder coatings nor “de minimus

VOM content coatings” be included in calculations used to determine the amount of annual

coating usage. Tr2. at 18-19. The Agency contends that either case would require

reinterpretation of the definition of “coating”

in a manner contrary to prior practice and in a

manner that exceeds the Agency’s intended scope of the instant proposal. PC 2 at 5-7. After

review of these issues, the Board declines today to either reinterpret the existing definition of

“coating” or to otherwise explicitly exclude powder coatings or “de minimus” VOM content

coatings from the definition of “coating.”

Touch-up and Repair and Recordkeeping and Reporting

In addition to the coating exemption proposed for Section 215.206, today’s proposal at

Section 215.206 also adds exemptions for

de minimus

usage of touch-up and repair coatings,

and for associated recordkeeping and reporting requirements. These exemptions are identical

to exemptions found in Parts 218 and 219. See 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.208 and 219.208. The

purpose of incorporating these exemptions into Part 215 is to make this provision uniform

between non-attainment and attainment areas.

Roadmaster Site-Specific Rule

Part 215 currently contains a site-specific rule applicable to the Roadmaster

Corporation’s facility located in Olney, Illinois, found at Section 215.214.

Roadmaster has

shut down the coaters to which the site-specific rule applies, and has indicated to the Agency

“Coating”, for the purposes of Part 215, is defined at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211.1190(a).

Roadmaster Corporation is now known as Brunswick Bicycle Company. Tr2. at 14.

that it wishes to have the site-specific rule withdrawn. Tr2. at 14-15; PC 2 at 3 and Exhibit B.

On this basis the rule is proposed for deletion.

Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaners

Today’s proposal would delete all regulatory requirements pertaining to

perchloroethylene dry cleaners found in Part 215. Perchloroethylene was delisted as a VOM

by the United States Environmental Protection Agency on February 7, 1996. On February 7,

1997 the Board adopted a final rulemaking delisting perchloroethylene as VOM under state

regulations. These actions moot 35 Ill. Adm. Code 215.601-606, which are here proposed for

repeal.

Board-Initiated Changes

In addition to the amendments proposed by the Agency, the Board today includes for

first notice several additional stylistic and formatting amendments. These include amendment

of the title for Section 215.207 in the table of contents, amendment of the Board note

following Section 215.109 to correct the cross-reference to “volatile organic material”,

addition of the word “and” at the end of proposed Section 215.206(c)(5), change of the

spelling of “exceedance” to “exceedence”, and addition of various necessary comas and

hyphens in some portions of the text. In addition, two of the minor amendments

recommended by the Agency, proposed corrections of spellings of the word “coat” at Section

215.204(a)(3) and of the word “actual” at Section 215.207(c), are not made today because the

official version of both sections does contain the correct spellings.

ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

The Agency believes that the instant proposal is technically feasible and economically

reasonable. Tr1. at 11; Tr2. at 7. The Agency further believes that adoption of the proposed

amendments would not have an adverse effect on the environment. Tr1. at 11; Tr2. at 7.

Additionally, the Agency asserts that it has been in contact with most affected facilities, and

that the affected parties are in agreement with the proposal. Tr1. at 11; Tr2. at 7.

CONCLUSION

The Board finds that, based on the record developed in this matter, adoption of the

Agency’s proposed amendments for the purposes of first notice is warranted.

ORDER

The Board hereby proposes for first notice the following amendments to 35 Ill. Adm.

Code 215. The Clerk of the Board is directed to file these proposed rules with the Secretary of

State.

Section 215.205

Alternative Emission Limitations

Owners or operators of coating lines subject to Section 215.204 may comply with this Section,

rather than with Section 215.204. The methods or procedures used to determine emissions of

organic material under this Section shall be approved by the Agency. Emissions of volatile

organic material from sources emission units subject to Section 215.204, are allowable,

notwithstanding the limitations in Section 215.204, if:

For those sources emission units subject to Section 215.204(b), the emissions

are controlled by an afterburner system which provides:

75% reduction in the overall emissions of volatile organic material from

the coating line, and

Oxidation to carbon dioxide and water of 90% of the nonmethane

volatile organic material (measured as total combustible carbon) which

enters the afterburner.

For all other sources emission units subject to Section 215.204, the emissions

are controlled by an afterburner system which provides:

81% reduction in the overall emissions of volatile organic material from

the coating line, and

Oxidation to carbon dioxide and water of 90% of the nonmethane

volatile organic material (measured at total combustible carbon) which

enters the afterburner.

The system used to control such emissions is demonstrated to have control

efficiency equivalent to or greater than that provided under the applicable

provision of Section 215.204 or subsections (a) or (b).
