    Final Order.
    OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J. Theodore Meyer):
    On December 13, 1995 the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) filed
    this proposal for rulemaking pursuant to Section 28.5 of the Illinois Environmental Protection
    Act (Act). Section 182(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended in 1990, requires all
    moderate and above ozone nonattainment areas to achieve a 15% reduction of 1990 emissions
    of volatile organic material (VOM) by 1996. In Illinois, the Chicago and Metro-East St.
    Louis areas are classified as "severe" and "moderate" nonattainment for ozone, respectively,
    and as such are subject to the 15% reduction requirement. Also pursuant to Section 182(b) of
    the CAA, Illinois is to submit a 15% Rate of Progress Plan (ROP) within three years of the
    enactment of the CAA amendments. This rulemaking represents corrections and clarifications
    to parts 218 and 219 of the rules proposed in the Illinois 15% ROP.
    The Board's responsibility in this matter arises from the 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).) This proposal was
    filed pursuant to Section 28.5 of the Act, commonly referred to as "Fast Track Rulemaking",
    which requires the Board to proceed with rulemaking under set time frames. (415 ILCS
    5/28.5) Today the Board acts to adopt the proposed rules as final, adopted regulations.
    PROCEDURAL HISTORY
    In its December 13, 1995 proposal, the Agency submitted seven (7) minor amendments
    to the 15% ROP Plan which are detailed below. The Agency also filed a motion to waive
    certain filing requirements found in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 102, which the Board granted at its
    December 20, 1995 meeting.
    Pursuant to Section 28.5 of the Act, the Board sent this proposal to first notice under
    the Administrative Procedure Act on December 20, 1995 without commenting on the merits.
    The proposal was published in the Illinois Register at 20 Ill.Reg. 122 for Part 218 and 20
    Ill.Reg. 155 for Part 219. In response to the first notice publication, the Board received two
    comments from the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR) regarding minor
    changes, which were subsequently incorporated into the final rules.
    A public hearing was held in Chicago on February 6, 1996 before hearing officer K.C.
    Poulos. The public comment period closed on February 27, 1996; no public comments were
    received. The Board sent the proposal to second notice on March 21, 1996 and JCAR voted
    no objection on October 15, 1996. The final rules are identical to the second notice proposal.
    PROPOSAL

    The Agency recommended seven amendments or clarifications in 35 Ill. Adm. Code
    Parts 218 and 219. First, Section 218.108(b) allows a source to obtain a variation of a control
    plan or an alternative to a test method through a federally enforceable permit. However, this
    "equivalent alternative control plan" language was inadvertently omitted from part 219. This
    proposal adds the same language found in Section 218.108(b) to new Section 219.108(b).
    Second, the Agency amended certain equations found in Sections 218.110(b), 219.110(b) and
    219.111(b) in In the Matter of: Omnibus Cleanup of Volatile Organic RACT Rule Applicable
    to Ozone Nonattainment Areas: Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code Parts 203, 211, 218 and
    219 (September 9, 1993) R93-9. However, the Agency did not specify the components of the
    amended equations; this rule corrects those components.
    Third, this rule corrects certain cross references found in Sections 218.208(c),
    219.208(c), 218.208(b)(4) and 219.208(b)(4) regarding recordkeeping and reporting
    requirements for facilities which use touch-up and repair coatings. The fourth amendment
    corrects a citation to the Federal Register, and further corrects typographical errors in Sections
    218.434, 218.435, 219.434 and 219.435.
    The fifth amendment reflects the Illinois General Assembly's repeal of regulations for
    emissions from bakery ovens in Public Law 98-79 in spring, 1995. The sixth amendment
    corrects the exemption for polyethylene foam packaging operations so that it mirrors the
    exemption for polystyrene foam packaging operations. Finally, this rule corrects the standard
    temperature for one of the calculations found in Appendix G of both parts, specifically, the
    calculation for determining the net heating value of the vent stream.
    The Board also received minor editorial corrections from JCAR, and a revision that
    strikes the words "Leaks from" from the title of Subpart Q so that it reads "Synthetic Organic
    Chemical and Polymer Manufacturing Plant".
    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.
    The Board therefore finds that the record supports the final adoption of the proposed rules as
    amended.
    ORDER
    The Board hereby adopts the following amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218 and 219.
    The Board directs the Clerk to submit the following amendments to the Secretary of State
    Administrative Code Division as final adopted rules:

    SUBPART F: COATING OPERATIONS
    Section 218.208
    Exemptions Ffrom Emission Limitations
    a)
    Exemptions for all coating categories except wood furniture coating. The
    limitations of this Subpart shall not apply to coating lines within a source, that
    otherwise would be subject to the same subsection of Section 218.204 (because
    they belong to the same coating category, e.g. can coating), provided that
    combined actual emissions of VOM from all lines at the source subject to that
    subsection never exceed 6.8 kg/day [15 lbs/day] before the application of
    capture systems and control devices. (For example, can coating lines within a
    source would not be subject to the limitations of Section 218.204 (b) of this
    Subpart if the combined actual emissions of VOM from the can coating lines
    never exceed 6.8 kg/day [15 lbs/day] before the application of capture systems
    and control devices.) Volatile organic material emissions from heavy off-
    highway vehicle products coating lines must be combined with VOM emissions
    from miscellaneous metal parts and products coating lines to determine
    applicability. Any owner or operator of a coating source shall comply with the
    applicable coating analysis test methods and procedures specified in Section
    218.105 (a) of this Part and the recordkeeping and reporting requirements
    specified in Section 218.211 (a) of this Subpart if total VOM emissions from the
    subject coating lines are always less than or equal to 6.8 kg/day [15 lbs/day]

    before the application of capture systems and control devices and, therefore, are
    not subject to the limitations of Section 218.204 of this Subpart. Once a
    category of coating lines at a source is subject to the limitations in Section
    218.204 of this Subpart the coating lines are always subject to the limitations in
    Section 218.204 of this Subpart.
    b)
    Applicability for wood furniture coating
    1)
    The limitations of this Subpart shall apply to a source's wood furniture
    coating lines if the source contains process emission units, not regulated
    by Subparts B, E, F (excluding Section 218.204 (l) of this Subpart), H
    (excluding Section 218.405 of this Part), Q, R, S, T (excluding Section
    218.486 of this Part), V, X, Y, or BB of this Part, which as a group
    both:
    A)
    Have a maximum theoretical emissions of 91 Mg (100 tons) or
    more per calendar year of VOM if no air pollution control
    equipment were used,; and
    B)
    Are not limited to less than 91 Mg (100 tons) of VOM per
    calendar year if no air pollution control equipment were used,
    through production or capacity limitations contained in a
    federally enforceable permit or SIP revision.
    2)
    The limitations of this Subpart shall apply to a source's wood furniture
    coating lines, on and after March 15, 1996, if the source contains
    process emission units, which as a group, have a potential to emit 22.7
    Mg (25 tons) or more of VOM per calendar year and have not limited
    emissions to less than 22.7 Mg (25 tons) of VOM per calendar year
    through production or capacity limitations contained in a federally
    enforceable operating permit or SIP revision, and which:
    A)
    Are not regulated by Subparts B, E, F (excluding Section
    218.204 (l) of this Subpart), H, Q, R, S, T (excluding Section
    218.486 of this Part), V, X, Y, Z or BB of this Part; and
    B)
    Are not included in any of the following categories: synthetic
    organic chemical manufacturing industry (SOCMI) distillation,
    SOCMI reactors, plastic parts coating (business machines),
    plastic parts coating (other), offset lithography, industrial
    wastewater, autobody refinishing, SOCMI batch processing,
    volatile organic liquid storage tanks and clean-up solvents
    operations.
    3)
    If a source ceases to fulfill the criteria of subsection (b) (1) or (b) (2) of
    this Section, the limitations of Section 218.204 (l) of this Subpart shall
    continue to apply to any wood furniture coating line which was ever
    subject to the limitations of Section 218.204 (l) of this Subpart.
    4)
    For the purposes of subsection (b) of this Section, an emission unit shall
    be considered to be regulated by a Subpart if it is subject to the
    limitations of that Subpart. An emission unit is not considered regulated
    by a Subpart if it is not subject to the limits of that Subpart, e.g., the
    emission unit is covered by an exemption in the Subpart or the

    applicability criteria of the Subpart are not met.
    5)
    Any owner or operator of a wood furniture coating line to which the
    limitations of this Subpart are not applicable due to the criteria in
    subsection (b) of this Section shall, upon request by the Agency or the
    USEPA, submit records to the Agency and the USEPA within 30
    calendar days from the date of the request that document that the coating
    line is exempt from the limitations of this Subpart.
    c)
    On and after March 15, 1996, the limitations of this Subpart shall not apply to
    touch-up and repair coatings used by a coating source described by subsections
    218.204(b), (d), (f), (g), (i), (j), (n) and (o) of this Subpart; provided that the
    source-wide volume of such coatings used does not exceed 0.95 l (1 quart) per
    eight-hour period or exceed 209 l/yr [55 gal/yr] for any rolling twelve month
    period. Recordkeeping and reporting for touch-up and repair coatings shall be
    consistent with Section 218.211(b)(4) of this Subpart subsection (d) of this
    Section.
    d)
    On and after March 15, 1996, the owner or operator of a coating line or a group
    of coating lines using touch-up and repair coatings that are exempted from the
    limitations of Section 218.204(b), (d), (f), (g), (i), (j), (n) and (o) of this
    Subpart because of the provisions of Section 218.208 (c) of this Subpart shall:
    1)
    Collect and record the name, identification number, and volume used of
    each touch-up and repair coating, as applied on each coating line, per
    eight-hour period and per month;
    2)
    Perform calculations on a daily basis, and maintain at the source records
    of such calculations, of the combined volume of touch-up and repair
    coatings used source-wide for each eight-hour period;
    3)
    Perform calculations on a monthly basis, and maintain at the source
    records of such calculations, of the combined volume of touch-up and
    repair coatings used source-wide for the month and the rolling twelve
    month period;

    Prepare and maintain at the source an annual summary of the
    information required to be compiled pursuant to subsections (c) (4) (A)
    and (c) (4) (B) (d) (1) and (d)(2) of this Section on or before January 31
    of the following year;
    5)
    Maintain at the source for a minimum period of three years all records
    required to be kept under this subsection and make such records
    available to the Agency upon request;
    6)
    Notify the Agency in writing if the use of touch-up and repair coatings at
    the source ever exceeds a volume of 0.95 l (1 quart) per eight-hour
    period or exceeds 209 l/yr [(55 gal/yr]) for any rolling twelve month
    period within 30 days after any such exceedance. Such notification shall
    include a copy of any records of such exceedance; and
    7)
    "Touch-up and repair coatings" means, for purposes of 35 Ill. Adm.
    Code 218.208, any coating used to cover minor scratches and nicks that

    2)
    Every owner or operator of a vent stream shall use the applicable coefficients
    identified for values a, b, c and d in subsection (b) (1) of this Appendix to
    calculate the TRE index value based on a flare, a thermal incinerator with zero
    percent heat recovery, and a thermal incinerator with 70 percent heat recovery,
    and shall select the lowest TRE index value.
    3)
    Every owner or operator of a reactor or distillation unit with a halogenated vent
    stream, determined as any stream with a total concentration of halogen atoms
    contained in organic compounds of 200 ppmv or greater, shall use the
    applicable coefficients identified for values a, b, c and d in subsection (b) (1) of
    this Appendix to calculate the TRE index value based on a thermal incinerator
    and scrubber.
    c)
    Every owner or operator of a source seeking to comply with Section 218.432 (b) of this
    Part shall recalculate the flow rate and VOM concentration for each affected vent
    stream whenever process changes are made. Examples of process changes include, but
    are not limited to, changes in production capacity, feedstock type, or catalyst type, or
    whenever there is replacement, removal, or addition of recovery equipment. The flow
    rate and VOM concentration shall be recalculated based on test data, or on best
    engineering estimates of the effects of the change to the recovery system.
    d)
    Whenever a process change, as defined in Section 218.435 (c) of this Subpart, yields a
    TRE index value of 1.0 or less, the owner or operator shall notify and submit a report
    to the Agency according to the requirements specified in Section 218.435 (c) of this
    Subpart, within 180 calendar days after the process change and shall conduct a
    performance test according to the methods and procedures required by Section 218.433
    of this Part.
    e)
    For the purpose of demonstrating that a process vent stream has a VOM concentration
    below 500 ppmv, the following shall be used:
    1)
    The sampling site shall be selected as specified in Section 218.433 (c) (1) of this
    Part.
    2)
    Method 18 or Method 25A of 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix A, incorporated by
    reference at Section 218.112 of this Part, shall be used to measure
    concentration; alternatively, any other method or data that has been validated
    according to the protocol in Method 301 of 40 CFR Part 63, Appendix A,
    incorporated by reference at Section 218.112 of this Part, may be used.

    3)
    Where Method 18 is used, the following procedures shall be used to calculate
    ppmv concentration:
    i)
    The minimum sampling time for each run shall be 1 hour in which either
    an integrated sample or four grab samples shall be taken. If grab
    sampling is used, then the samples shall be taken at approximately equal
    intervals in time, such as 15 minute intervals during the run.
    ii)
    The concentration of VOM shall be calculated using Method 18
    according to Section 218.433(c) (4) of this Part.
    4)
    Where Method 25A is used, the following procedures shall be used to calculate
    ppmv VOM concentration:
    A)
    Method 25A shall be used only if a single VOM is greater than 50
    percent of total VOM, by volume, in the process vent stream.
    B)
    The vent stream composition may be determined by either process
    knowledge, test data collected using an appropriate Reference Method or
    a method of data collection validated according to the protocol in
    Method 301 of 40 CFR Part 63, Appendix A, incorporated by reference
    at Section 218.112 of this Part. Examples of information that constitute
    process knowledge include calculations based on material balances,
    process stoichiometry, or previous test results provided the results are
    still relevant to the current process vent stream conditions.
    C)
    The VOM used as the calibration gas for Method 25A shall be the single
    VOM present at greater than 50 percent of the total VOM by volume.
    D)
    The span value for Method 25A shall be 50 ppmv.
    E)
    Use of Method 25A is acceptable if the response from the high-level
    calibration gas is at least 20 times the standard deviation of the response
    from the zero calibration gas when the instrument is zeroed on the most
    sensitive scale.
    F)
    The concentration of VOM shall be corrected to 3 percent oxygen using
    the procedures and equation in Section 218.433 (c) (3) of this Part.
    5)
    The owner or operator shall demonstrate that the concentration of VOM,
    including methane and ethane, measured by Method 25A is below 250 ppmv to
    qualify for the low concentration exclusion in Section 218.431 of this Part.

    SUBPART F: COATING OPERATIONS
    Section 219.208
    Exemptions From Emission Limitations
    a)
    Exemptions for all coating categories except wood furniture coating. The
    limitations of this Subpart shall not apply to coating lines within a source, that
    otherwise would be subject to the same subsection of Section 219.204 (because
    they belong to the same coating category, e.g. can coating), provided that
    combined actual emissions of VOM from all lines at the source subject to that
    subsection never exceed 6.8 kg/day (15 lbs/day) before the application of
    capture systems and control devices. (For example, can coating lines within a
    source would not be subject to the limitations of Section 219.204 (b) of this
    Subpart if the combined actual emissions of VOM from the can coating lines
    never exceed 6.8 kg/day (15 lbs/day) before the application of capture systems
    and control devices.) Volatile organic material emissions from heavy off-
    highway vehicle products coating lines must be combined with VOM emissions

    from miscellaneous metal parts and products coating lines to determine
    applicability. Any owner or operator of a coating source shall comply with the
    applicable coating analysis test methods and procedures specified in Section
    219.105 (a) of this Part and the recordkeeping and reporting requirements
    specified in Section 219.211 (a) of this Subpart if total VOM emissions from the
    subject coating lines are always less than or equal to 6.8 kg/day (15 lbs/day)
    before the application of capture systems and control devices and, therefore, are
    not subject to the limitations of Section 219.204 of this Subpart. Once a
    category of coating lines at a source is subject to the limitations in Section
    219.204 of this Subpart the coating lines are always subject to the limitations in
    Section 219.204 of this Subpart.
    b)
    Applicability for wood furniture coating
    1)
    The limitations of this Subpart shall apply to a source's wood furniture
    coating lines if the source contains process emission units, not regulated
    by Subparts B, E, F (excluding Section 219.204 (l) of this Subpart), H
    (excluding Section 219.405 of this Part), Q, R, S, T (excluding Section
    219.486 of this Part), V, X, Y, Z or BB of this Part, which as a group
    both:
    A)
    Have a maximum theoretical emissions of 91 Mg (100 tons) or
    more per calendar year of VOM if no air pollution control
    equipment were used, ; and
    B)
    Are not limited to less than 91 Mg (100 tons) of VOM per
    calendar year if no air pollution control equipment were used,
    through production or capacity limitations contained in a
    federally enforceable permit or SIP revision.
    2)
    The limitations of this Subpart shall apply to a source's wood furniture
    coating lines, on and after March 15, 1996, if the source contains
    process emission units, which as a group have a potential to emit 22.7
    Mg (25 tons) or more of VOM per calendar year and have not limited
    emissions to less than 22.7 Mg (25 tons) of VOM per calendar year
    through production or capacity limitations contained in a federally
    enforceable operating permit or SIP revision, and which:
    A)
    Are not regulated by Subparts B, E, F (excluding Section
    219.204(l) of this Subpart), H, Q, R, S, T (excluding Section
    219.486 of this Part), V, X, Y, Z or BB of this Part; and
    B)
    Are not included in any of the following categories: synthetic
    organic chemical manufacturing industry (SOCMI) distillation,
    SOCMI reactors, plastic parts coating (business machines),
    plastic parts coating (other), offset lithography, industrial
    wastewater, autobody refinishing, SOCMI batch processing,
    volatile organic liquid storage tanks and clean-up solvents
    operations.
    3)
    If a source ceases to fulfill the criteria of subsection (b) (1) or (b) (2) of
    this Section, the limitations of Section 219.204 (l) of this Subpart shall
    continue to apply to any wood furniture coating line which was ever
    subject to the limitations of Section 219.204 (l) of this Subpart.

    4)
    For the purposes of subsection (b) of this Section, an emission unit shall
    be considered to be regulated by a Subpart if it is subject to the
    limitations of that Subpart. An emission unit is not considered regulated
    by a Subpart if it is not subject to the limits of that Subpart, e.g., the
    emission unit is covered by an exemption in the Subpart or the
    applicability criteria of the Subpart are not met.
    5)
    Any owner or operator of a wood furniture coating line to which the
    limitations of this Subpart are not applicable due to the criteria in
    subsection (b) of this Section shall, upon request by the Agency or the
    USEPA, submit records to the Agency and the USEPA within 30
    calendar days from the date of the request that document that the coating
    line is exempt from the limitations of this Subpart.
    c)
    On and after March 15, 1996, the limitations of this Subpart shall not apply to
    touch-up and repair coatings used by a coating source described by subsections
    219.204(b), (d), (f), (g), (i), (j), (m) and (n) of this Subpart; provided that the
    source-wide volume of such coatings used does not exceed 0.95 l (1 quart) per
    eight-hour period or exceed 209 l/yr (55 gal/yr) for any rolling twelve month
    period. Recordkeeping and reporting for touch-up and repair coatings shall be
    consistent with Section 219.211(b)(4) of this Subpart subsection (d) of this
    Section.
    d)
    On and after March 15, 1996, the owner or operator of a coating line or a group
    of coating lines using touch-up and repair coatings that are exempted from the
    limitations of Section 219.204(b), (d), (f), (g), (i), (j), (m) and (n) of this
    Subpart because of the provisions of Section 219.208(c) of this Subpart shall:
    1)
    Collect and record the name, identification number, and volume used of
    each touch-up and repair coating, as applied on each coating line, per
    eight-hour period and per month;
    2)
    Perform calculations on a daily basis, and maintain at the source records
    of such calculations of the combined volume of touch-up and repair
    coatings used source-wide for each eight-hour period;
    3)
    Perform calculations on a monthly basis, and maintain at the source
    records of such calculations of the combined volume of touch-up and
    repair coatings used source-wide for the month and the rolling twelve
    month period;

    information required to be compiled pursuant to subsections (c)(4)(A)
    and (c)(4)(B) (d) (1) and (d) (2) of this Section on or before January 31
    of the following year;
    5)
    Maintain at the source for a minimum period of three years all records
    reuqired required to be kept under this subsection and make such records
    available to the Agency upon request;
    6)
    Notify the Agency in writing if the use of touch-up and repair coatings at
    the source ever exceeds a volume of 0.95 l (1 quart) per eight-hour
    period or exceeds 209 l/yr (55 gal/yr) for any rolling twelve month

    period within 30 days after any such exceedance. Such notification shall
    include a copy of any records of such exceedance; and
    7)
    "Touch-up and repair coatings" means, for purposes of 35 Ill. Adm.
    Code 219.208, any coating used to cover minor scratches and nicks that

    to subsection (a) (1) (B) (ii) of this Appendix shall be applied to
    the organic compound concentrations measured according to
    subsection (a) (1) (B) (i) of this Appendix to determine the
    concentrations of organic compounds from the final recovery
    device attributable to the reactor or distillation unit vent stream.

    3)
    Where Method 18 is used, the following procedures shall be used to calculate
    ppmv concentration:
    i)
    The minimum sampling time for each run shall be 1 hour in which either
    an integrated sample or four grab samples shall be taken. If grab
    sampling is used, then the samples shall be taken at approximately equal
    intervals in time, such as 15 minute intervals during the run.
    ii)
    The concentration of VOM shall be calculated using Method 18
    according to Section 219.433 (c) (4) of this Part.
    4)
    Where Method 25A is used, the following procedures shall be used to calculate
    ppmv VOM concentration:

    Method 25A shall be used only if a single VOM is greater than 50 percent
    of total VOM, by volume, in the process vent stream.
    B)
    The vent stream composition may be determined by either process
    knowledge, test data collected using an appropriate Reference Method or
    a method of data collection validated according to the protocol in
    Method 301 of 40 CFR Part 63, Appendix A, incorporated by reference
    at Section 219.112 of this Part. Examples of information that constitute
    process knowledge include calculations based on material balances,
    process stoichiometry, or previous test results provided the results are
    still relevant to the current process vent stream conditions.
    C)
    The VOM used as the calibration gas for Method 25A shall be the single
    VOM present at greater than 50 percent of the total VOM by volume.
    D)
    The span value for Method 25A shall be 50 ppmv.
    E)
    Use of Method 25A is acceptable if the response from the high-level
    calibration gas is at least 20 times the standard deviation of the response
    from the zero calibration gas when the instrument is zeroed on the most
    sensitive scale.

    F)
    The concentration of VOM shall be corrected to 3 percent oxygen using the
    procedures and equation in Section 219.433 (c) (3) of this Part.
    The owner or operator shall demonstrate that the concentration of VOM, including
    methane and ethane, measured by Method 25A is below 250 ppmv to qualify for
    the low concentration exclusion in Section 219.431 of this Part.
