OPINION AND
ORDER OF THE BOARD
(by
G.
T.
Girard):
On November 14,
1995,
the illinois Environmental
Protection
Agency (Agency) filed
this proposal for rulemaking pursuant to Section 28.5 of the Environmental
Protection
Act
(Act)
(415
ILCS 5/1 et seq.
(1994)).
Section
189(a) of the
federal
Clean Air Act (CAA),
as
amended in 1990,
requires all areas classified as moderate
nonattainment areas
for
particulate
matter
with
an aerodynamic
diameterless
than
or
equal to a nominal ten micrometers (PM-b)
to present a
state
implementation plan
(SIP) for implementing reasonably
available control
measures
(RACM).
On
November
15,
1990,
the
United States
Environmental Protection
Agency (USEPA) designated
Lake
Calumet
and
McCook areas in Cook County
and
Granite
City
in Madison County as moderate
nonattainment areas for PM-10.
On
May
15,
1992, a
SIP was
submitted for
Lake
Calumet, McCook,
and Granite
City.
The USEPA conditionally
approved the
SIP
on November 18,
1994.
(59
F.R. 59653.)
These
proposed amendments will
address the
concerns
raised
by USEPA
in
the conditional approval of the SIP.
The
Board’s
responsibility
in this
matter arises from the Environmental Protection Act
(Act) (415 ILCS 5/1 et seq.
(1994)).
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.
The
latter
includes
administration
of
today’s
new
regulation.
This
proposal was
filed
pursuant to Section 28.5 of the Act.
(415 ILCS
5/28.5.)
Pursuant
to the provisions of that
section
the
Board
is
required
to proceed within
set
time-
frames toward
the adoption of
this
regulation.
The
Board
has no discretion to
adjust
these
time-frames
under any circumstances.
Therefore,
the
Board adopted
the first
notice
opinion
and
order on November 16,
1995,
without commenting on
the
merits
of the proposal.
The
proposal
was
published for first notice
under the
Illinois
Administrative Procedure Act
(5
ILCS
100/1-1
et seq.)
on
December
1,
1995
at 19
III.
Reg.
15925 (Part 211)
and
19 Ill.
Reg.
15940 (Part 212).
The
Board
held a hearing on
January
5,
1996,
before
Board
hearing officer
2
Marie Tipsord.
The remaining
scheduled
hearings were canceled by hearing officer order
dated
January
25,
1996,
and
the
record was
closed on
January
31,
1996.
The
Board
today finds that the proposal is
economically
reasonable
and technically
feasible
and
sends
this
matter to the legislative Joint
Committee
on Administrative Rules for
second
notice review.
PROPOSAL
Although
this
proposal includes amendments which
will apply statewide,
the major
changes in
this
proposal
will affect
steel production
sources located
in the McCook
and Lake
Calumet areas in Cook County and the
Granite
City area in Madison
County.
(Reasons
at
3.)’
As previously stated the proposal addresses
several concerns
raised by USEPA in the
conditional
SIP
approval.
The USEPA cited to
four issues which
needed
to be addressed in
rulemaking prior to full
SIP
approval.
Pursuant to the
CAA, illinois must address
these
issues
within
12
months or the conditional approval
becomes
a partial disapproval
and
sanctions
will
apply within
18
months.
Specifically the proposal addresses:
1)
a
20 percent opacity limit on uncaptured
particulate matter from a basic
oxygen
furnace
(BOF) shop;
2)
a
30
percent
opacity limit on coke oven combustion
stacks;
3)
a
20 percent opacity
limit
on the roof ventilators
for certain electric
arc
furnaces; and
4)
amendments to
clarify
wording.
(Reasons
at 4-6.)
According to the Agency,
the 20 percent opacity limit for the roof monitor
and
other
building openings at the
Granite
City Steel BOF
shop
“correlates more accurately with the
emissions estimate
used
in the attainment demonstration”.
(rSD at 2; Reasons at 4.)
The
Agency
also
indicated that a 20 percent opacity limit is consistent with the opacity limit
selected
by
the nearby
states
of
Indiana,
Michigan
and
Ohio
for the BOFs
in
those states.
(Id.)
Compliance with the 20 percent opacity
limit
can be demonstrated using Method 9
contained
in
40 CFR 60 except that a shorter averaging time of three minutes will be
used instead
of
six
minutes
to reflect that some of the BOF
operations do
not last
six
minutes.
(Id.)
The Agency
further
stated
that
Granite
City Steel
has
agreed to a
more stringent
limit
of60 pounds per
The statement of
reasons
from the Agency’s proposal will be cited as “Reasons at
_“;
the
technical support document attached to the proposal will be cited as “TSD at
_“;
each public
comment will be cited as “P.C. # at
_“;
the transcript from the hearing will be cited as “Tr.
at
3
hour ofPM-10 and a
new
rate based
limit of0.225
pounds ofPM-10 per ton of steel produced
for the BOF
stack.
(Id.)
The
second concern delineated
by USEPA
dealt with
the lack of an opacity limit for
coke
oven combustion
stacks.
(Reasons
at 4.)
Without
such a limit,
USEPA is concerned that
this could delay any potential
enforcement and therefore
early
correction.
The Agency states
that the
performance
ofa stack
test
is much more
costly and
time consuming than an opacity
reading.
(TSD
at 3;
Reasons
at 4.)
Therefore the Agency’s
proposal sets an
opacity limit of
30 percent for coke oven combustion
stacks.
(Reasons
at 4.)
Sources
which are affected
by
this proposal believe
that the 30
percent opacity
limit can be met
except
when one of the ovens
needs
to be
repaired
and is
taken off-line
for
ceramic
welding.
(TSD at 4;
Reasons
at 4-5.)
The Agency
has proposed an
exemption
from
the 30 percent opacity limit for up to three hours
when a coke
oven is being
repaired.
(Reasons
at 5.)
The USEPA
also expressed concern
that the roof monitors for the
electric arc furnaces
at
the
steel foundry located
in
Granite
City are too short to
accommodate
stack
testing
equipment
and cannot
be
easily
altered to do so.
(Reasons
at 5.)
Because
of the inability to
accommodate stack testing
equipment,
the
Agency
indicated
it is not possible to
readily test
whether the emissions from the ventilators are in
compliance
with the mass emission limit.
(TSD at 5;
Reasons
at 5.)
A
20 percent
opacity
limit is equivalent to the mass emission limit
at the
steel
foundry and a 20
percent
limit
can be applied to the
entire
facility as other stacks
may also be too
short for
testing.
(Reasons
at
5.)
The
proposal also clarifies language
in
several sections
which USEPA believed
was
confusing or duplicative.
Specifically,
the USEPA believed
that
the
language in
Section
212.107
was
confusing.
(Reasons
at
5.)
Further,
USEPA considers the
language
in Section
212.110 to be duplicative
and
inconsistent with the
language
in Sections 212.107, 212. 108,
and 212.109.
(Id.)
Finally,
the USEPA expressed
concern
that
the
language
in Sections
212.324(d), 212.362(c), 212425(c), 212.458(c) and 212.464(c) could be read to exempt
sources
with no visible emissions from any stack
testing.
(Id.)
The Agency
has also
proposed minor amendments to eliminate duplicative or
obsolete
sections,
to
update language consistent with the Clean Air Act Permit Program,
to
clarify
rules,
to address the Secretary of State’s recommended style, and to amend the limitations
found at
35
III.
Adm.
Code 212.458(b)(25) which
pertain
to a specific
magnesium facility in
Granite City.

Agency comment by Rachel L. Doctors.
Chicago Department
of the Environment
The
Chicago
Department
of the Environment’s (CDOE)
comment indicates that CDOE
generally
supports
the proposal;
however,
CDOE is
“opposed
to the
repeal of”
Section
212.315,
“Covering of Vehicles”.
CDOE
states:
While
other regulations can be indirectly applied to vehicle
load
emission
situations,
the current
section delineates a direct
statutory violation for
this
regularly occurring
public
nuisance.
Repeal
of
this nile significantly erodes
the
ability
ofCDOE
and
the
Illinois Environmental Protection
Agency to effectively
enforce
and control particulate
emissions
from
this source category, and
prevents
the general populace (i.e.
affected community residents)
from
serving
in a desired
and needed
role as observer
and witness
to such violations.
(P.C.
1 at 2.)
CDOE
also indicated
that although repeal of the Ringelmann
Chart references is
consistent with the more
updated and
precise use of percent opacity values,
the Ringelmann
Chart has
been used
fairly recently in
training.
(P.C.
1
at 1.)
CDOE also urged the State to
provide a
more contextual definition
and
illustration ofthe
“Universal Transmercator
boundaries” in Section 212.315.
(P.C.
1
at 2.)
Agency
Response
The Agency
indicated that the Ringelmann Chart is no longer
used in training and
that
the Agency is developing a map that
will
provide to the City clarified
“Universal
Transmercator boundaries”.
(P.C. 5 at 2-3.)
With regard to the
repeal
of Section 212.3 15,
the Agency notes that Section
10(E) ofthe Act prohibits the
Board
from enforcing any
regulation which requires a covering
on a truck
that is stricter than Section 15-109.1 of the
Illinois Vehicle Code (625 ILCS 5/1-101
et seq.).
(P.C.
5 at 2.)
Section
15-109.1
prohibits
the operation of
any
second
division vehicle ifa portion of the load is sifting, blowing,
dropping or escaping
from the vehicle.
Section 212.315 requires that
a vehicle be covered to
5
prevent the
release
of
particulate
matter.
“Hence,
the requirements of the
two sections
are not
parallel.”
(P.C.
5
at 3.)
The Agency
will
agree that Section 212.315
need
not be
repealed
if
the
Board
will note
that
the provisions of the Motor
Vehicle Code supersede those in
Board
regulations.
(Id.)
The
Board
agrees that the repeal of Section 2 12.315 is not
necessary
at
this
time.
Clearly,
the
Board’s
regulations cannot supersede a
statutory
provision and therefore,
the
provisions of Section 212.315 may
not be
construed
as more stringent than Section 15-109.1
of the Vehicle
Code.
Spectrulite Consortium.
Inc
Spectrulite Consortium,
Inc.
(Spectrulite)
comments
that
it is concerned with the
provisions of Section 212.458(b)(25) which allows
Spectrulite to contemporaneously
operate
two magnesium
pot furnace
lines at the Granite City
facility.
Spectrulite
requests that the
amendment be clarified to make clear that no more
than
two lines may operate at a
time.
Spectrulite
requests the following amendment to Section 212.458(b)(25):
Magnesium
pot
furnaces at ~
secondary
aluminum smelting
and
refining plant
located
in the vicinity of Granite City,
as defined in Section 212.324 (a)
(1)
(C)
of
this Part
can be
operated
only one no more than two lines at a time;
(P.C. 2
at
1.)
Agency Response
The Agency
agrees with
the comment
filed
by
Spectrulite
and
agrees that
the language
should be included.
(P.C.

at 1.)
The
Board
will
amend the proposal to reflect the comment
by
Spectrulite.
Grain and Feed
Association of illinois
The
Grain
and
Feed
Association of Illinois (Association) asks that the
Board
consider
the addition of a
Board
note to Section 212.462.
The Association is concerned
that while
Section 9 of the Act exempts
country grain
elevators from Section 212.462(b)
“on its face
purports
to apply to
these
exempted facilities”.
(P.C.
3
at 1.)
The Association points out that
a rule
cannot override
the
statute.
The Association
asks that the following be added:
Board Note:
Section 9 ofthe
Illinois Environmental Protection
Act has
been
amended to exempt certain facilities from
portions
of
this rule.
(P.C.

The Agency did not
address
the comment by the
Association.
The
Board
agrees that
the a rule cannot override the statute.
However,
the
Board does
not believe that a
Board
note
need
be added to Section 212.462.
Therefore,
the
Board declines
to adopt the change
suggested
by the Association.
Attorney
General
of the
State
ofIllinois
The Illinois Attorney General’s
Office
suggested
that
the
incorporation
by reference in
Section 211.101(b) be
amended
to
update
the
incorporation
from
1972 to
1987.
(P.C.
4 at
1.)
Agency
Response
The
Agency
indicated that
it is
currently investigating the
impact
of the
updated
incorporation suggested by the Attorney General’s
Office.
(P.C.
5
at
1.)
The Agency
believes that
“it is inappropriate to make that change without a more complete explanation
being developed
at hearing”.
(Id.)
The Agency stated
that the change from
1972 to
1987
“may
impact source classifications”.
(P.C.
5 at 2.)
The Agency
indicates that it
will
consider
this
change for future
amendments.
(Id.)
The
Board agrees
that more investigation
should be
undertaken
before
updating this incorporation.
Therefore, the
Board
declines to make
this
change at this time.
Illinois Steel Group
The illinois Steel
Group (ISG)
indicated
agreement with the portions of the proposal
which
will affect
the steel industry
with two amendments.
ISO asked the Agency to consider
an amendment to Section 212.458(b)(23)
in order to clarify the
meaning of
the
section.
(Tr.
at 24-26.)
The change would read:
23)
31.1
2L24 kg/u (6&4&~
lbs/k) and
0.1125 kg/Mg
(0.225 lbslT) of total
steel
produced in process.
whichever
limit is more stringent for the total of
all
basic
oxygen
furnace processes described
in Section 212.446(a) of
this
Subpart
and
measured
at the BOF stack
located
at steel plant in the
vicinity
of Granite City,
as defined in Section 2l2.324(a)(1)(C) of
this
Part
(Tr.
at 27;
P.C.
5
at 4.)
The second amendment was to Section
212.443 and ISO asked ifthe Agency would object to
applying
Method 9
from 40
CFR 60,
Appendix A
to coke battery stack
testing
in Section
212.443.
(Tr.
at 22.)
The Agency indicated that it would not and ISG offered the following
language:
g)
Coke Oven Combustion Stack:
11
No person
shall
cause
or
allow the emissions ofparticulate matter from a
coke oven combustion stack to exceed
110

periods.
These
records shall
be
subject to
the requirements of
Sections
212.324(g)(4)
and
(g)(5) of
this
Part.
Agency
Response
The Agency agrees with the
language suggested by
ISG.
(P.C.
5
at 4.)
The
Board
will
amend
the
proposal
to reflect
these
changes.
General Agency
Comments
The Agency also responded to
two
questions
that
the
Board presented
to the Agency at
hearing.
The
first
of those questions concerned the
definition
for
“animal kingdom”
at Section
211.484.
The Agency replied that it
agrees
that
most biologists believe
that
there
are
more
than
two kingdoms
and suggests that “plants” be replaced with
“other multicellular organisms”.
The Agency also suggests that
“kingdom, Animal” be replaced
with
“kingdom,
Animalia”.
(P.C.
5
at 3.)
The
second
question which the Agency responded to is whether the abbreviation
for liter
should be
“1”
or
“L”.
The Agency
believes
that
appropriate abbreviation is “L”.
(Id.)
However,
the Agency
requests
that for consistency the change be made in
Part
212 but not in
Part
211
at this time.
The
Board will make
these changes as
recommended
by the Agency.
At the
January
5,
1996, hearing
the Agency
submitted an “Errata
Sheet”
as
exhibit
5.
Included on
the
Errata
sheet is the following:
This rulemaking proposes
to delete
references to
the
Ringelmann
Chart;
however, it
omitted deleting
the
definition
for the
Ringelmann Chart.
35 ifi.
Adm. Code 211,5650 should be
repealed.
(Exhibit
5.)
The
Board cannot make this
change.
Section 211.5650
was
not
proposed
for amendment at
first
notice.
The
Board cannot open a
new
section
for the
first
time at
second notice.
(~ 5
ILCS
5-40.)
If the Agency believes that
this change
is
necessary
the Agency wifi
need
to
include this
change in a
future rulemaking.
The
Board will make the
other changes
recommended
on the Errata
sheet.

DISCUSSION
The
Board has carefully
considered all public comments,
as well as the testimony
and
exhibits,
in
this matter.
There is no
substantive disagreement between
the
commenters and the
Agency as to the
substance
of the rule.
In response to
the comments the
Board will further
amend
the
proposal
in
several areas.
As
requested
by
CDOE,
the
Board will
not
repeal
Section 212.3 15 at this time.
Clearly,
the
Board’s
regulations cannot supersede a
statutory
provision
and therefore,
the provisions of Section 212.315 may
not be
construed as
more
stringent
than Section
15-109.1
of the Vehicle Code.
Further,
in response to a
comment from
Spectrulite,
the
Board will amend Section 212.458(b)(25) to clarify
the language.
The Board
will also amend the
proposal as suggested
by the
illinois
Steel
Group and
agreed
to by the
Agency.
Further,
the
Board will amend
the
proposal as suggested
by
the Agency in the
errata
sheet
except
for the request to
repeal
Section 211.5650.
CONCLUSION
The
Board
finds that the
proposed rules are technically
feasible and
economically
reasonable,
and that the
rules are necessary
to meet the requirements of the
Clean Air
Act.
We
find
that the
record supports proceeding
with the
proposed
rules, as
amended,
to
second
notice.

schedule.
e)
The owner or
operator shall allow
Agency personnel
to be present during the
performance test,
f)
The method for
determining an adjusted opacity standard
is as follows:
1)
A minimum of 60
consecutive minutes
ofopacity readings
obtained in
accordance
with
USEPA
Test Method 9,40
CFRp~t60,
Appendix A,
incorporated
by reference in
Section 212.113 of
this Part,
shall
be
taken
during each sampling run.
Therefore,
for
each performance test (which
normally consists of three sampling runs), a total of three sets of opacity
readings totaling three hours or more shall be obtained.
Concurrently,
the particulate emissions data from three sampling runs obtained in
accordance
with
USEPA Test Method
5,40
CFRp~t60,
Appendix A,
incorporated by reference in Section 212.113 of this Part,
shall also be
obtained.
2)
After the results of the performance tests are received from the emission
sourceiinil,
the status of compliance with the applicable particulate
emissions limitation shall be determined by the Agency.
In accordance
with USEPA Test Method 5,40 CFRp~60,
Appendix A,
incorporated
by reference in Section 212.113 of this Part,
the average of the results of
the
three sampling runs must be less than the allowable particulate
38
emission
rate in order for the ~
to be considered in
compliance.
If
compliance
is demonstrated,
then only those test runs
with results which are
less
than
the allowable
particulate
emission rate
shall be considered as acceptable test runs
for the
purpose
of establishing
an adjusted opacity
standard.
3)
The opacity readings for each acceptable sampling run shall be divided
into sets
of24
consecutive readings.
The ~
16.minute
average opacity
for each set
shall be determined
by dividing the sum of
the
24 readings
within each set
by 24.
4)
The second highest
six
~-minute
average opacity obtained
in
subsection
(0(3) abeveoLtl~isSection
shall be selected as the
adjusted opacity
standard.
g)
The owner or operator shall submit a
written report
of
the results of the
performance
test
to theAgency at
least thirty
(301 days prior to
filing a
petition
for an adjusted
standard
with the
Board.
h)
If,
upon
review of such owner’s or operator’s
written
report
of
the results of the
performance
test(s),
the Agency determines
that the emission sourcetinil is in

B)
Compliance with the
limitation set forth
in
subsection (b)(1’(A)
of
this Section shall be determined in
the following
manner:
i)
Observation of charging emissions
shall be made
from
any
point
or
points
on the topside ofa
coke
oven
battery
from
which a qualified
observer can obtain an
unobstructed
view of the
charging
operation.
ii)
The
qualified
observer
shall time the visible emissions
with a stopwatch while
observing
the charging operation.
Only emissions
from the charge port
and any part
of the
larry car shall be
timed. The
observation shall commence
as
soon as coal
is
introduced
into the first charge
port
as
indicated
by the
first mechanical
movement of the coal
feeding mechanism
on the
larry car
and shall
terminate
when the last charge
port
lid
has been replaced.
Simultaneous emissions
from more
than
one emission
point shall be timed and recorded
as one emission
and
shall
not be added individually to the
total
time.
iii)
The
qualified observer shall determine
and
record
the
total
number of
seconds
that charging
emissions are visible
during
the charging of
coal
to the coke oven.
iv)
For
each charge observed,
the
qualified
observer shall
record
the
total
number of seconds
of
visible emissions,
the clock time for the
initiation and
completion of the
charging
operation and the
battery
identification and oven
number.
v)
The
qualified observer shall
not
record
any
emissions
observed after all charging port
lids
have been
firmly
seated
following
removal of the
larry car,
such as
emissions
occurring
when a lid
has been temporarily
removed to
permit spilled coal
to be swept into
the oven.
vi)
In the event
that observations
from a
charge
are
interrupted
the data from the
charge shall be invalidated
and
the
qualified observer shall note
on
his observation
sheet
the
reason
for
invalidating
the data. The
qualified
observer shall then resume observation
of the next
consecutive charge
or charges
and continue until a set
of
