Proposal for Public Comment.

Proposed Order of the Board

(by J. Anderson):

Pursuant to Sections 17.5 of the Environmental Protection

Act

(Act),

the Board is proposing to amend the Safe Drinking

Water Act (SDWA) regulations.

Section 17.5 provides for quick adoption of regulations that

are “identical in substance” to federal regulations and that

Title VII of the Act and Section 5 of the Administrative

Procedure Act

(APA)

shall not apply.

Because this rulemaking is

not subject to Section

5 of the APA,

it is not subject to first

notice or to second notice review by the Joint Committee on

Administrative Rules

(JCAR).

The federal SDWA regulations are

found at 40 CFR 141 and 142.

This rulemaking updates SDWA rules

to correspond with major federal amendments more fully outlined

in the accompanying Opinion.

This proposed order is supported by a proposed opinion

adopted on the same day.

The Board will receive public comment

on the proposal for a period of 45 days following its publication

in the Illinois Register.

The complete text of the proposed

rules follows.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

I, Dorothy M.

Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control

Board, do hereby certify that the above order was adopted by the

Board ~rithe

Section 611.110

Special Exception Permits

a)

Unless otherwise specified,

each Agency determination

in this Part is to be made by way of a written permit

pursuant to Section 39(a)

of the Act.

Such permit is

titled a “special exception” permit

(“SEP”).

b)

No person shall cause or allow the violation of any

condition of a SEP.

c)

The supplier may appeal the denial of or the conditions

of a SEP to the Board pursuant to Section 40 of the

Act.

d)

A SEP may be initiated either:

1)

By an application filed by the supplier; or

0~L~2-U385

---

2)

By the Agency, when authorized by Board

regulations.

BOARD NOTE:

The Board does not intend to mandate

by any provision of this Part that the Agency

exercise its discretion and initiate a SEP

pursuant to subsection

(d) (2)

above.

Rather, the

Board intends to clarify by this subsection that

the Agency may opt to initiate a SEP without

receiving

a request from the supplier.

e)

The Agency shall evaluate a request for a SEP from the

monitoring requirements of Section 611.646(e) and

(f)

(Phase I.

Phase II, and Phase V VOCs and Phacic II

VOCo),

Section 611.646(d), only as to initial

611.648(a)

(for Phase II, Phase IIB. and Phase V SOCs)

andor Section 611.510(a)

(for unregulated organic

contaminants) on the basis of knowledge of previous use

(including transport, storage, or disposal)

of the

contaminant in the watershed or zone of influence of

the system, as determined pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code

671:

1)

If the Agency determines that there was no prior

use of the contaminant,

it shall grant the SEP,

or

2)

If the contaminant was previously used or the

previous use was unknown, the Agency shall

consider the following factors:

A)

Previous analytical results;

B)

The proximity of the system to any possible

point source of contamination (including

spills or leaks at or near a water treatment

facility; at manufacturing, distribution, or

storage facilities; from hazardous and

municipal waste land fills;

or from waste

handling or treatment facilities) or non-

point source of contamination (including the

use of pesticides and other land application

uses of the contaminant);

C)

The environmental persistence and transport

of the contaminant;

D)

How well the water source is protected

against contamination,

including whether it

is

a SWS or a GWS:

i)

A GWS must consider well depth,

soil

type,

and well casing integrity, and

ii)

A

must consider watershed

protection; and

E)

For Phase II, Phase

IIB. and Phase V SOC5 and

unregulated organic contaminants

(pursuant to

Section

611.631

or

611.648)

i)

Elevated nitrate levels at the water

source;

and

ii)

The use of PCB5 in equipment used in the

production,

storage, or distribution of

water

(including pumps,

transformers,

etc.); and

F)

For Phase I.

Phase II, and Phase V VOC5 and

Phacic II VOCs (pursuant to Section 611.646):

the number of persons served by the PWS and

the proximity of a smaller system to a larger

one.

f)

If a supplier refuses to provide any necessary

additional information requested by the Agency,

or if a

supplier delivers any necessary information late in the

Agency’s deliberations on a request, the Agency may

deny the requested SEP or grant the SEP with conditions

within the time allowed by law.

Section 611.130

Special Requirements for Certain Variances

and Adjusted Standards

a)

Relief from the

TTHM

MCL.

---

46

1)

In granting any variance or adjusted standard to a

supplier

that

is

a

CWS

that

adds

a

disinfectant

at

any

part

of

treatment

and

which

provides

water

to

10,000 or more persons on a regular basis from the

maximum

contaminant

level

for

TTHM

listed

in

Section 611.310(c), the Board will require

application of the best available technology

(BAT)

identified at subsection

(a) (4) below for that

constituent as

a condition to the relief, unless

the supplier has demonstrated through

comprehensive

engineering

assessments

that

application of BAT is not technically appropriate

and technically feasible for that system, or it

would only result in a marginal reduction in

TTHN

for that supplier.

2)

The

Board

will

require

the

following

as

a

condition for relief from the

TTHN

MCL where it

does not require the application of BAT:

A)

That the supplier continue to investigate the

following methods as an alternative means of

significantly reducing the level of

TTHM,

according to a definite schedule:

i)

introduction

of

off-line

water

storage

for

THM

precursor

reduction;

ii)

aeration for

TTHM

reduction,

where

geography

and

climate

allow;

iii)

introduction of clarification, where not

presently practiced;

iv)

use of alternative sources of raw water;

and

v)

use of ozone as an alternative or

supplemental disinfectant or oxidant,

and

B)

That the supplier report results of that

investigation to the Agency.

3)

The Agency shall petition the Board to reconsider

or modify a variance or adjusted standard,

pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.Subpart

K,

if

it

determines that an alternative method identified

by the supplier pursuant to subsection

(a) (2)

above is technically feasible and would result in

a significant reduction in TTKM.

BOARD

NOTE:

Derived from 40 CFR 142.60

(1992).

The restrictions of this subsection

do not apply to suppliers regulated for

TTHM

as an additional state requirement.

See the

Board Note to Section 611.301(c).

b)

Relief from the fluoride MCL.

1)

In granting any variance or adjusted standard to a

supplier that is a CWS from the maximum

contaminant level for fluoride listed in Section

611.301(b),

the Board will require application of

the best available technology

(BAT)

identified at

subsection

(b) (4) below for that constituent as a

condition to the relief, unless the supplier has

demonstrated through comprehensive engineering

assessments that application of BAT is not

technically appropriate and technically feasible

for that supplier.

2)

The Board will require the following as a

condition for relief from the fluoride MCL where

it does not require the application of BAT:

A)

That the supplier continue to investigate the

following methods as an alternative means of

significantly reducing the level of

TTHM,

according to a definite schedule:

i)

modification of lime softening;

ii)

alum coagulation;

iii) electrodialysis;

iv)

anion exchange resins;

v)

well field management;

vi)

use of alternative sources of raw water;

and

vii) regionalization, and

B)

That the supplier report results of that

investigation to the Agency.

3)

The Agency shall petition the Board to reconsider

or modify a variance or adjusted standard,

pursuant to 35 Ill.

Athu.

Code 101.Subpart K,

if it

determines that an alternative method identified

by the supplier pursuant to subsection

(b) (2)

above

is technically feasible and would result in

a significant reduction in fluoride.

4)

Best available technology for fluoride reduction:

A)

activated alumina absorption centrally

applied, and

B)

reverse osmosis centrally applied.

BOARD NOTE:

Derived from 40 CFR 142.61

(1992)

c)

Relief from an inorganic chemical contaminant, VOC, or

SOC MCL.

1)

In granting to a supplier that is a CWS or NTNCWS

any variance or adjusted standard from the maximum

contaminant levels for any VOC or SOC,

listed in

Section 611.311(a)

or

(c), or for any inorganic

chemical contaminant, listed in Section 611.301,

the supplier must have first applied the best

available technology

(BAT)

identified at Section

611.311(b)

(VOC5 and SOCs)

or Section 611.301(c)

(inorganic chemical contaminants) for that

constituent, unless the supplier has demonstrated

through comprehensive engineering assessments that

application of BAT would achieve only a minimal

and insignificant reduction in the level of

contaminant.

BOARD NOTE:

USEPA lists BAT for each SOC and VOC

at 40 CFR 142.62(p)

(1992). as amended at 57 Fed.

Req.

That list is identical to the list at 40 CFR

141.61(b), with three exceptions:

the section

142.62 listing adds PTA (“PAT”)

for alachior;

lists OX for hexachlorobenzene,

instead of GAC;

and omits PTA for toxaphene.

The Board has chosen

to use the section 141.61(a)

(although the preamble at 56 Fed. Reg. 3529

(Jan.

30. 1991)

indicates that it is

wrong

as to

toxaphene).

2)

The Board may require any of the following as a

condition for relief from a MCL listed in Section

611.301 or 611.311:

A)

That the supplier continue to investigate

alternative means of compliance according to

a definite schedule, and

B)

That the supplier report results of that

investigation to the Agency.

3)

The Agency shall petition the Board to reconsider

or modify a variance or adjusted standard,

pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code l0l.Subpart K,

if

it

determines that an alternative method identified

by the supplier pursuant to subsection

(c) (2)

above is technically feasible.

BOARD

NOTE:

Derived from 40 CFR 142.62(a) through

(e)

(1992).

d)

Conditions requiring use of bottled water or point-of-

use or point—of—entry devices.

In granting any

variance or adjusted standard from the maximum

contaminant levels for organic and inorganic chemicals

or an adjusted standard from the treatment technique

for lead and copper, the Board may impose certain

conditions requiring the use of bottled water, point-

of-entry devices, or point—of-use devices to avoid an

unreasonable risk to health, limited as provided in

subsections

(e) and

(f)

below.

1)

Relief from an MCL.

The Board may, when granting

any variance or adjusted standard from the MCL

requirements of Sections 611.301 and 611.311,

impose a condition that requires a supplier to use

bottled water, point-of—use devices, point—of-

entry devices or other means to avoid an

unreasonable risk to health.

2)

Relief from corrosion control treatment.

The

Board may, when granting an adjusted standard from

the corrosion control treatment requirements for

lead and copper of Sections 611.351 and 611.352,

impose a condition that requires a supplier to use

01

L~.2-039

---

50

bottled water and point—of—use devices or other

means,

but not point—of—entry devices, to avoid an

unreasonable risk to health.

3)

Relief from source water treatment or service line

replacement.

The Board may, when granting an

exemption from the source water treatment and lead

service line replacement requirements for lead and

copper under Sections 611.353 or 611.354, impose a

condition that requires a supplier to use point—

of—entry devices to avoid an unreasonable risk to

health.

BOARD

NOTE:

Derived from 40 CFR 142.62(f)

(1992).

e)

Use of bottled water.

Suppliers that propose to use or

use bottled water as a condition for receiving a

variance or an adjusted standard from the requirements

of Section 611.301 or Section 611.311, or an adjusted

standard from the requirements of Sections 611.351

through 611.354 must meet the requirements of either

subsections

(e)(l),

(e)(2),

(e)(3),

and (e)(6)

or

(e) (4),

(e) (5) and

(e) (6)

below:

1)

The supplier must develop a monitoring program for

Board approval that provides reasonable assurances

that the bottled water meets all MCLs of Sections

611.301 and 611.311 and submit

a description of

this program as part of its petition.

The

proposed program must describe how the supplier

will comply with each requirement of this

subsection.

2)

The supplier must monitor representative samples

of the bottled water for all contaminants

regulated under Sections 611.301 and 611.311

during the first three-month period that it

supplies the bottled water to the public, and

annually thereafter.

3)

The supplier shall annually provide the results of

the monitoring program to the Agency.

4)

The supplier must receive a certification from the

bottled water company as to each of the following:

A)

that the bottled water supplied has been

taken from an approved source of bottled

water,

as such is defined in Section 611.101;

B)

that the approved source of bottled water has

conducted monitoring

in accordance with 21

0

L~.2-U392

Use of point—of-entry devices.

Before the Board grants

any PWS a variance or adjusted standard from any

NPDWR

that includes a condition requiring the use of

a point-

of-entry device, the supplier must demonstrate to the

Board each of the following:

1)

that the supplier will operate and maintain the

device;

2)

that the device provides health protection

equivalent to that provided by central treatment;

3)

that the supplier will maintain the

microbiological safety of the water at all times;

4)

that the supplier has established standards for

performance, conducted a rigorous engineering

design review, and field tested the device;

5)

that the operation and maintenance of the device

will account for any potential for increased

concentrations of heterotrophic bacteria resulting

through the use of activated carbon, by

backwashing, post-contactor disinfection, and

heterotrophic plate count monitoring;

6)

that buildings connected to the supplier’s

distribution system have sufficient devices

properly installed, maintained, and monitored to

assure that all consumers are protected; and

7)

that the use of the device will not cause

increased corrosion of lead and copper bearing

materials located between the device and the tap

(c)

(1992).

This provision, which corresponds with 40

for inorganic parameters.

However, USEPA added

another listing of inorganic MCL5 at 40 CFR 141.62

at 56 Fed.

Following

the changing USEPA codification scheme creates two

listings of NCL5:

one at this Section and one at

Section 611.301.

This causes fluoride to appear

in both the 40 CFR 141.11(b) and 141.62(b)

listings with the same MCL.

The Board has deleted

the corresponding fluoride MCL from this Section

in favor of that which appears at Section

Standard for SEP reduction in monitoring.

The Agency

shall grant a SEP that allows a reduction in the

monitoring frequency if the supplier demonstrates that

all previous analytical results were less than the MeL,

provided the supplier meets the following minimum data

requirements:

1)

For GWS suppliers:

a minimum of three rounds of

monitoring.

2)

For SWS and mixed system suppliers:

annual

monitoring for at least three years.

3)

At least one sample must have been taken since

e)

Standard for SEP monitoring conditions.

As a condition

of any SEP, the Agency shall require that the supplier

take a minimum of one sample during the term of the

SEP.

In determining the appropriate reduced monitoring

frequency,

the Agency shall consider:

1)

Reported concentrations from all previous

monitoring;

2)

The degree of variation in reported

concentrations; and

3)

Other factors may affect contaminant

concentrations,

such as changes in groundwater

pumping rates, changes in the CWSs configuration,

the CWS’s operating procedures,

or changes in

stream flows or characteristics.

Section 611.609

Averaging

Compliance with the MCLs of Sections 611.300 or 611.301

(as

appropriate) must be determined based on the analytical result(s)

obtained at each sampling point.

a)

For suppliers that monitor at a frequency greater than

annual, compliance with the NCLS for antimony~

asbestos, barium, beryllium,

cadmium, chromium,

cyanide, fluoride, mercury, a~idnicke1. selenium, and

thallium is determined by a running annual average at

each sampling point.

1)

If the average at any sampling point is greater

than the MCL, then the supplier is out of

compliance.

2)

If any one sample would cause the annual average

to be exceeded, then the supplier is out of

compliance immediately.

3)

Any sample below the method detection limit must

be calculated at zero for the purpose of

determining the annual average.

BOARD NOTE:

The “method detection limit” is

different from the “detection limit”, as set forth

in Section 611.600.

The “method detection limit”

is the level of contaminant that can be determined

by a particular method with a 95 percent degree of

confidence,

as determined by the method outlined

in 40 CFR 136,

appendix’B,

incorporated by

reference at Section 611.102.

b)

For suppliers that monitor annually or less frequently,

compliance with the MCLs for antimony. asbestos,

barium, beryllium,

cadmium, chromium, cyanide,

fluoride, mercury, e~i4nickel. selenium, and thallium is

determined by the level of the contaminant at any

sampling point.

If a confirmation sample is taken, the

determination of compliance will be based on the

average of the two samples.

c)

Compliance with the NCLs for nitrate and nitrite is

determined based on one sample if the levels of these

contaminants are below the MCL5.

If the levels of

nitrate or nitrite exceed the MCLs in the initial

sample, Section 611.606 requires confirmation sampling,

and compliance is determined based on the average of

U

t4~.ti4

---

74

the initial and confirmation samples.

d)

When the portion of the distribution system that is out

of compliance is separable from other parts of the

distribution system and has no interconnections, the

supplier may give the public notice required by Subpart

T

only to persons served by that portion of the

distribution system not in compliance.
