UPDATE, USEPA AMENDMENTS	)	(Identical-in-Substance
(July 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002)		) Rulemaking - Water)

Proposed Rule. Proposal for Public Comment.

OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by N.J. Melas):

This identical-in-substance rulemaking proposes updating the Illinois wastewater pretreatment regulations to incorporate revisions to the federal regulations. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) made the amendments that prompted this action during the period of July 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002. This proceeding proposes amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 307 and 310. This proposal for public comment also proposes making a series of non-substantive corrections and stylistic revisions to segments of Subparts U and BE of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 307 and Subpart A of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 310 that are not otherwise affected by the covered federal amendments.

Sections 7.2 and 13.3 of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/7.2 and 13.3 (2002)) require that the Board adopt regulations that are “identical in substance” to federal wastewater pretreatment regulations. These are rules adopted by the USEPA pursuant to sections 307(b), (c), and (d) and 402(b)(8) and (b)(9) of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA) (33 U.S.C. §§ 1317(b), (c), and (d) and 1342(b)(8) and (b)(9) (1994)). Section 13.3 also provides that Title VII of the Act and Section 5 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 ILCS 100/5-35 and 5-40 (2002)) do not apply to the Board’s adoption of identical-in-substance regulations. The federal wastewater pretreatment regulations are found at 40 C.F.R. 400 through 499.

The order segment of this opinion and order sets forth the text of the proposed amendments. That text begins below on page 23. The Board will cause the proposed amendments to be published in the Illinois Register and will hold the docket open to receive public comments for 45 days after the date of publication. The Board expects to adopt final amendments based on this proposal by September 20, 2003.

FEDERAL ACTIONS CONSIDERED IN THIS RULEMAKING

The following listing briefly summarizes the federal actions considered in this wastewater pretreatment update rulemaking:

Docket R03-13: July 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002,

Wastewater Pretreatment Amendments

USEPA amended the federal wastewater pretreatment regulations on two occasions during the period July 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002. Both are summarized below:

67 Fed. Reg. 58990 (September 19, 2002)
USEPA amended the effluent limitations guidelines and standards applicable to the Pulp, Paper, and Paperboard Point Source Category.

67 Fed. Reg. 64216 (October 17, 2002)

USEPA amended the effluent limitations guidelines and standards applicable to the Iron and Steel Manufacturing Point Source Category.

No Later Wastewater Pretreatment Amendments of Interest to Date

The Board engages in ongoing monitoring of federal actions. As of the date of this opinion and accompanying order, the Board has identified no other USEPA actions since December 31, 2002, that further amend the wastewater pretreatment rules in a way that would require immediate Board attention.

When the Board observes an action outside the nominal timeframe of a docket that would require expedited consideration in the pending docket, the Board will expedite consideration of those amendments. Federal actions that could warrant expedited consideration include those that directly affect the amendments involved in this docket, those for which compelling reasons would warrant consideration as soon as possible, and those for which the Board has received a request for expedited consideration. If the Board identifies any additional federal actions that fulfill these criteria prior to final action, the Board may include those amendments in the present update docket R03-13.

Other Federal Actions Having a Direct Impact on the Illinois Wastewater Pretreatment Regulations

In addition to the amendments to the federal wastewater pretreatment regulations, amendments to other federal regulations occasionally affect the Illinois wastewater pretreatment rules. Most notably, 35 Ill. Adm. Code 310.107 includes incorporations of federal regulations by reference. The incorporated regulations include segments of various USEPA environmental regulations and United States Department of Transportation hazardous materials transportation regulations that USEPA has incorporated into the federal hazardous waste rules.

As of the date of this proposal for public comment, the Board has found three sets of amendments to the incorporated materials. Those are the following actions:

67 Fed. Reg. 65220 (October 23, 2002)

USEPA updated the various methods used for analysis of contaminants in wastewater and drinking water. This included amendments to the methods of 40 C.F.R. 136.

67 Fed. Reg. 65876 (October 29, 2002)

USEPA updated the Method 1631 for analysis of mercury in water. This included amendments to the method in 40 C.F.R. 136.

67 Fed. Reg. 69952 (November 19, 2002)

USEPA amended its guidelines for whole effluent toxicity (WET) testing by approving new methods, amending existing methods, and deleting prior methods. This included amendments to the methods in 40 C.F.R. 136.

All three of these sets of amendments could affect implementation of the wastewater pretreatment regulations. Each will require the Board to update the version of 40 C.F.R. 136 incorporated by reference in Section 310.107 to include three sets of amendments.

Summary Listing of the Federal Actions Forming the Basis of the Board’s Actions in These Consolidated Dockets

Based on the foregoing, the federal actions that form the basis for Board action in this update docket are the following, listed in chronological order:

September 19, 2002 (67 Fed. Reg. 58990)

Amended standards for the Pulp, Paper, and Paperboard Point Source Category.

October 17, 2002 (67 Fed. Reg. 64216)

Amended standards for subcategories of the Iron and Steel Manufacturing Point Source Category.

October 23, 2002 (67 Fed. Reg. 65220)

Updated methods used for analysis of contaminants in wastewater and drinking water, including the methods of 40 C.F.R. 136.

October 29, 2002 (67 Fed. Reg. 65876)	Updated Method 1631 for analysis of mercury in water in 40 C.F.R. 136.
November 19, 2002 (67 Fed. Reg. 69952)	Amended guidelines for WET testing.

PUBLIC COMMENTS

The Board will receive public comments on this proposal for a period of 45 days following its publication in the Illinois Register. After that time, the Board will immediately consider adoption of the amendments, making any necessary changes in response to public comments.

TIMETABLE FOR COMPLETION OF THIS RULEMAKING

Under Section 7.2 of the Act (415 ILCS 5/7.2(b) (2002)), the Board must complete this rulemaking within one year of the date of the earliest set of federal amendments considered in this docket. USEPA adopted the earliest federal amendments that required Board attention on September 19, 2002, so that the deadline for Board adoption of these amendments is September 19, 2003. The Board scheduled adoption of this proposal for public comment for the Board meeting of June 19, 2003, to allow for timely adoption of the rule by September 5, 2003. This will allow filing of these amendments before the September 19, 2003 deadline.

Considering the proposal of these amendments on this date, the Board projects the following will occur in the progress towards completion of these amendments:

Due date:	September 19, 2003
Date of Board vote to propose amendments:	June 19, 2003
Submission for Illinois Register publication:	June 30, 2003
Probable Illinois Register publication date:	July 11, 2003
End of 45-day public comment period:	August 25, 2003
Date of Board vote to adopt amendments:	September 4, 2003
Probable filing and effective date:	September 15, 2003
Probable Illinois Register publication date:	September 26, 2003

DISCUSSION

The following discussion begins with a description of the various deviations the Board makes from the literal text of federal regulations in adopting identical-in-substance rules. It is followed by a discussion of the amendments and actions undertaken in direct response to the federal actions involved in this proceeding. This first series of discussions is organized by federal subject matter, generally appearing in chronological order of the relevant Federal Register notices involved. Finally, this discussion closes with a description of the amendments and actions that are not directly derived from the federal actions.

General Revisions and Deviations from the Federal Text

In incorporating the federal rules into the Illinois system, some deviation from the federal text is unavoidable. This deviation arises primarily through differences between the federal and state regulatory structure and systems. Some deviation also arises through errors in and problems with the federal text itself. The Board conforms the federal text to the Illinois rules and regulatory scheme and corrects errors that we see in the text as we engage in these routine update rulemakings.

In addition to the amendments derived from federal amendments, the Board often finds it necessary to alter the text of various passages of the existing rules as provisions are opened for update in response to USEPA actions. This involves correcting deficiencies, clarifying provisions, and making other changes that are necessary to establish a clear set of rules that closely parallel the corresponding federal requirements within the codification scheme of the Illinois Administrative Code.

The Board updates the citations to the Code of Federal Regulations to the most recent version available. As of the date of this opinion, the most recent version of the Code of Federal Regulations available to the Board is the July 1, 2002 version. Thus, we have updated all citations to the 2002 version, adding references to later amendments using their appropriate Federal Register citation, where necessary.

The Board substituted “or” for “/” in most instances where this appeared in the federal base text, using “and” where more appropriate. The Board further used this opportunity to make a number of corrections to punctuation, grammar, spelling, and cross-reference format throughout the opened text. We changed “who” to “that” and “he” or “she” to “it,” where the person to which the regulation referred was not necessarily a natural person, or to “he or she,” where a natural person was evident; changed “which” to “that” for restrictive relative clauses; substituted “must” for “shall”; capitalized the section headings and corrected their format where necessary; and corrected punctuation within sentences.

In addition, the federal rules have been edited to establish a uniform usage throughout the Board’s regulations. For example, with respect to “shall,” “will,” and “may,” “must” is used when an action is required by the rule, without regard to whether the action is required of the subject of the sentence or not. “Shall” is no longer used, since it is not used in everyday language. Thus, where a federal rule uses “shall,” the Board substitutes “must.” This is a break from our former practice where “shall” was used when the subject of a sentence has a duty to do something. “Will” is used when the Board obliges itself to do something. “May” is used when choice of a provision is optional. “Or” is used rather than “and/or,” and denotes “one or both.” “Either . . . or” denotes “one but not both.” “And” denotes “both.”

The Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR) has requested that the Board refer to the United States Environmental Protection Agency in the same manner throughout all of our bodies of regulations—i.e., air, water, drinking water, RCRA Subtitle D (municipal solid waste landfill), RCRA Subtitle C (hazardous waste), underground injection control (UIC), etc. The Board has decided to refer to the United States Environmental Protection Agency as “USEPA.” We will continue this conversion in future rulemakings as additional sections become open to amendment. We will further convert “EPA” used in federal text to “USEPA,” where USEPA is clearly intended.

The Board has assembled tables to aid in the location of these alterations and to briefly outline their intended purpose. The tables set forth the miscellaneous deviations from the federal text and corrections to the pre-amended base text of the rules in detail. The tables are set forth and explained beginning at page 10 of this opinion. There is no further discussion of most of the deviations and revisions elsewhere in this opinion.

Discussion of the Particular Federal Actions Involved in This Docket

Amended Standards for the Pulp, Paper, and Paperboard Point Source Category--Section 307.4000

The USEPA action of September 19, 2002 (67 Fed. Reg. 58990), related to discharges from sources in the Pulp, Paper, and Paperboard Point Source Category. USEPA amended the effluent limitations guidelines and standards applicable to sources in the Bleached Papergrade Kraft and Soda Subcategory. They allow mills in this subcategory to demonstrate compliance with applicable chloroform limitations and standards at a fiber line in lieu of monitoring. The amendments allow the mills to forego monitoring if they fulfill certain requirements: (1) they must perform initial monitoring to demonstrate compliance, (2) they must certify that the pertinent line is not using chlorine or hypochlorite as a bleaching agent, and (3) they must maintain process and operating conditions as during the compliance demonstration period. Included were amendments to wastewater pretreatment standards, and the present amendments incorporate those segments into the Illinois regulations. Persons interested in the details of the federal amendments should consult the September 19, 2002 Federal Register notice.

The Board incorporated the September 19, 2002 federal amendments without substantive deviation from the corresponding federal text. The federal amendments affected the monitoring provisions of 40 C.F.R. 430.02, which USEPA adopted April 15, 1998 (63 Fed. Reg. 18639). The Board adopted the federal April 15, 1998 amendments in Wastewater Pretreatment Update, USEPA Regulations (January 1, 1998 through June 30, 1998), R99-4 (Mar. 18, 1999), but neglected to include the monitoring requirements of federal section 430.02. The present amendments correct that oversight. The Board incorporates 40 CFR 430.02 by reference in Section 307.4000(c), which has caused the former subsection (c) to become subsection (d). The table that begins on page 10 of this opinion itemizes as a revision made in the federal text the fact that incorporation by reference was used in place of the federal text.

The Board requests public comment on the incorporation of the September 19, 2002 federal amendments that allow mills in the Bleached Papergrade Kraft and Soda Subcategory to make an alternative demonstration for compliance with the monitoring requirements.

Amended Standards for Subcategories of the Iron and Steel Manufacturing Point Source Category--Sections 307.3000 through 307.3004 and 307.3013

The USEPA action of October 17, 2002 (67 Fed. Reg. 64216) related to the effluent limitations guidelines and standards applicable to the Iron and Steel Manufacturing Point Source Category. USEPA amended the standards applicable to wastewater discharges from metallurgical cokemaking, sintering, and ironmaking operations. USEPA included new standards for direct reduced ironmaking, briquetting, and forging operations. USEPA also provided an allowance for existing basic oxygen furnaces operating semi-wet air pollution control systems and established technology-based limitations for electric arc furnaces operating semi-wet pollution control systems. The amendments further deleted references in the rules to beehive cokemaking, ferromanganese blast furnaces, and open hearth furnaces, which are obsolete. Persons interested in the details of the federal amendments should consult the October 17, 2002 Federal Register notice.

The Board has incorporated the October 17, 2002 federal Iron and Steel Manufacturing Point Source Category. The structure of the Illinois wastewater pretreatment regulations is such that the primary means of incorporating federal requirements is by use of incorporation of the federal rules by reference. Generally, the Illinois regulations set forth the text of shorter general provisions, like applicability statements, and incorporate the more lengthy federal substantive requirements by reference. Following this general pattern, incorporation of the October 17, 2003 federal amendments required the following amendments to the Illinois rules:

Federal Action	Required Board Action
Amendment of 420.02	Update incorporation at 307.3000(b)
Addition of 420.08	Add incorporation at 307.3000(e)
Amendment of 420.10	Amend 307.3001(a)
Amendment of 420.11	Update incorporation at 307.3001(b)
Amendment of 420.15	Update incorporation at 307.3001(c)(1)
Amendment of 420.16	Update incorporation at 307.3001(d)(1)
Addition of 420.18	Add incorporation at 307.3001(e)
Addition of 420.21	Add incorporation at 307.3002(b)
Amendment of 420.25	Update incorporation at 307.3002(c)(1)
Amendment of 420.26	Update incorporation at 307.3002(d)(1)
Addition of 420.28	Add incorporation at 307.3002(e)
Addition of 420.29	Add incorporation at 307.3002(f)
Amendment of 420.31	Update incorporation at 307.3003(b)
Amendment of 420.35	Update incorporation at 307.3003(c)(1)
Amendment of 420.36	Update incorporation at 307.3003(d)(1)
Amendment of 420.40	Amend 307.3004(a)
Amendment of 420.41	Update incorporation at 307.3004(b)
Amendment of 420.45	Update incorporation at 307.3004(c)(1)
Amendment of 420.46	Update incorporation at 307.3004(d)(1)
Addition of 420.48	Add incorporation at 307.3004(e)
Addition of 420.130	Add 307.3013(a)
Addition of 420.131	Add incorporation at 307.3013(b)
Addition of 420.135	Add incorporation at 307.3013(c)(1)
Addition of 420.136	Add incorporation at 307.3013(d)(1)

The deviations from the literal text of the federal amendments are restricted to minimal stylistic changes to incorporate the federal requirements into the Illinois regulations. The revisions are all listed in the table that begins on page 10 of this opinion. Two deviations warrant specific discussion. As the Illinois rules are structured, each Section incorporating the federal requirements for existing and new sources includes the following statement:

No person subject to the pretreatment standards incorporated by reference in subsection (c)(1) [or (d)(1)] of this Section may cause, threaten, or allow the discharge of any contaminant to a POTW in violation of such standards

The Board retained this structure when adding requirements applicable to “other operations.” In adding the 40 C.F.R. 420.135 requirements for existing sources at Section 307.3013(c)(1), the Board added the statement as subsection (c)(2). In adding the 40 C.F.R. 420.135 requirements for new sources at Section 307.3013(d)(1), the Board added the statement as subsection (d)(2). Further, the Board added a definition of “new source” at subsection (d)(3), to correspond with a similar addition in other segments of the Illinois rules, and a statement of the compliance date as subsection (e). The Board borrowed language from the preamble discussion of the federal amendments in the Federal Register.

The Board requests public comment on the proposed incorporation of the October 17, 2002 federal amendments relative to the Iron and Steel Manufacturing Point Source Category.

Updated Analytical Methods in 40 C.F.R. 136--Section 307.107

The USEPA actions of October 23, 2002 (67 Fed. Reg. 65220), October 29, 2002 (67 Fed. Reg. 65876), and November 19, 2002 (67 Fed. Reg. 69952) updated the Clean Water Act methods for analysis of contaminants in water and waste. The action of October 23, 2002 also related to methods for analysis of contaminants in drinking water under the Safe Drinking Water Act. The October 23, 2002 action was a general update of the various methods for analysis of chemical, microbiological, and radiological contaminants in water. The action of October 29, 2002 updated a single analytical method, USEPA Method 1631E, for analysis of mercury in aqueous samples by cold vapor atomic fluorescence spectrometry. The action of November 19, 2002 related to whole effluent toxicity (WET) testing. Persons interested in the details of the federal amendments should consult the October 23, 2002, October 29, 2002, and November 19, 2002 Federal Register notices.

The Board has proposed amendment of the Illinois hazardous waste regulations to incorporate the three sets of federal analytical methods revisions. All of the October 23, 2002, October 29, 2002, and November 19, 2002 amendments revised the Clean Water Act methods in 40 C.F.R. 136. Those methods are incorporated into the Illinois hazardous waste regulations by reference in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 310.107. The Board has proposed updating the incorporation by reference to include the October 23, 2002, October 29, 2002, and November 19, 2002 amendments.

The Board requests public comment on our proposed incorporation of the October 23, 2002, October 29, 2002, and November 19, 2002 federal amendments.

Discussion of Corrective Amendments

The Board has traditionally used the occasion of these identical-in-substance updates to correct segments of the base text of the Illinois regulations. The Board has added to this proceeding a limited number of corrective amendments to sections of the rules not affected by the underlying federal amendments. These corrections are nearly exclusively non-substantive in effect.

When a necessary minor correction comes to the attention of the Board, Board staff makes a note of the correction, and it is set aside until the next opportunity to make the correction. The next opportunity generally presents itself when the section involved is next opened for amendment as a result of amendments to the corresponding federal text. Over the last few years, the Board has cataloged many changes, but the pace of completing the corrections has been slow, since only a limited number of all the sections involved in the wastewater pretreatment regulations have been the subject of federal amendments. At the rate at which the Board has been able to make the corrections while restricting attention to opened Sections of the regulations, the Board might never be able to complete the corrections.

The Board is including a number of corrections in this docket. The overall length of the combined texts of Parts 307 and 310 is slightly less than 400 pages. The available time will not presently allow the Board to open the entire volume of this text. Instead, the Board has reviewed the text of Subparts U and BE of Part 307 and Subpart A of Part 310 in their entirety. In the future, as time allows, the Board will open other Subparts of Parts 307 and 310 for corrections. The Board will continue this process of making corrections to the text of Parts 307 and 310 at a reasonable rate in future wastewater pretreatment update dockets until all of the corrections are complete.

The Board will not discuss particular corrective amendments in this segment of this discussion. The corrections are each itemized in the table that begins on page 10 of this opinion. The Board requests that the Agency, JCAR, and the regulated community review the table and the text of the corrections. The Board requests comment on the corrections. The Board also asks for the assistance of the Agency, JCAR, and the regulated community in this process; the Board requests that they submit suggestions for correction of any errors of which they are aware. The Board will catalog any suggestions relating to parts and sections not already involved in this proceeding for future use.

Discussion of Miscellaneous Housekeeping Amendments

The tables below list numerous corrections and amendments that are not based on current federal amendments. The first table (beginning immediately below) includes deviations made in this Proposal for Public Comment from the verbatim text of the federal amendments. The second table (beginning below at page 11) contains corrections and clarifications that the Board made in the base text involved in this proposal. The amendments listed in this second table are not directly derived from the current federal amendments. Some of the entries in these tables are discussed further in appropriate segments of the general discussion beginning at page 4 of this opinion.
