omments Sought on Chloro-

Self-Pressurized Containers

On March 6, 1997 at 62 Fed.

Reg. 10242, the Food and Drug

Administration (FDA) gave notice

of a proposed rulemaking and

implementing determinations that

certain uses of chlorofluorocarbons

(CFC's) currently designated

essential will no longer be deemed

essential under the Clean Air Act

(CAA). The rule change is being

made due to the availability of safe

and effective medical product

technology that does not use

CFC's. Essential-use products are

exempt from FDA's ban on the use

of CFC propellants in FDA-

regulated products and the United

States Environmental Protection

Agency's (USEPA's) ban on the use

of CFC's in pressurized dispensers.

FDA is responsible for determining

which products containing CFC's

or other ozone-depleting sub-

stances are an essential use under

the CAA. FDA is soliciting

comments on this policy to assist

in striking an appropriate balance

that will best protect the public

health, by both ensuring the

availability of an adequate number

of treatment alternatives and

curtailing the release of ozone-

depleting substances.

Rules Amended, R97-10

On March 6, 1997, the Board

adopted amendments to the

existing underground storage tank

(UST) rules as required by P.A. 89-

457, signed and effective May 22,

1996. P.A. 89-457 required that

the Board complete its rulemaking

on or before March 15, 1997. The

amendments were proposed on

September 16, 1996 by the Illinois

Environmental Protection Agency

(Agency). Hearings were held on

November 18, 1996 in Chicago,

Illinois and on December 9, 1996

in Springfield, Illinois. The Joint

Committee on Administrative

Rules voted a certification of no

objection to the amendments on

February 26, 1997.

The intent of the amendments

is to effectuate changes for three

reasons: (1) to make the UST

with specified federal requirements; (2) to clarify issues

which have arisen since initial implementation; and (3)

to address issues unresolved in the predecessor R94-2(B)

docket, such as determining risk-based remediation

objectives and site classification. Specifically, this

amended rule includes general changes throughout Part

732 including adopting references to Part 742 for use in

developing remedial objectives. In addition, the Board

has added a new definition for “stratigraphic unit” and

provisions for testing to be done on a stratigraphic unit,

as well as requiring a Licensed Professional Engineer to

identify why testing need not be done on a stratigraphic

unit. Generally, timeframes for submission of reports

and appeal periods have been clarified throughout the

Board’s rule. Alternative methods for soil testing and

site classification have been added along with

clarifications on hydraulic conductivity and yield. The

rule also includes changes in groundwater monitoring

requirements including placement of wells and allowing

reclassification at any time prior to the submission of a

“Low Priority” completion report. The Board has also

clarified the standards for when a “No Further

Remediation Letter” may be revoked. The rule includes

clarification regarding payments and what constitutes

reasonable costs and early action. These rules are given

an effective date of July 1, 1997.

R97-17

On March 6, 1997, the Board proposed for public

comment, amendments to the definition of VOM at 35

Ill. Adm. Code 211.7150 in Docket R97-17. The

proposed amendment adds 3,3-dichloro-1,1,1,2,2-

pentafluoropropoane (HCFC 43-10mee), 1,2-dichloro

1,1,2,2,3-pentafluoropropane (HCFC 225ca), and

1,1,1,2,3,4,4,5,5,5-decafluorpentane (HCFC 225cb) to

the list of chemical compounds that are exempted from

the definition of VOM. This action proposes to exempt

these compounds from reasonable control technology

(RACT) regulation due to their negligible contribution to

tropospheric ozone formation. This action is identical to

the revision in the federal amendment that appeared at

61 Fed. Reg. 52848 on October 8, 1996.

A notice of proposed amendment will appear in the

Illinois Register. Comments on the proposed amend-

ments may be filed with the Board for a period of 45 days

after notice is published in the Illinois Register. A

hearing on the matter will be held in Chicago, Illinois at

the James R. Thompson Center, 100 W. Randolph St.,

On March 4, 1997, the Illinois Cast Metal

Association (ICMA) filed a proposal to amend 35 Ill.

Adm. Code 817.101, which is the scope and applicability

section of Part 817. On March 6, 1997, the Board held

this proposal for further review. The petition requests an

expansion of the relaxed steel and foundry waste landfill

rules adopted in R90-26 to cover certain non-ferrous

foundries. ICMA seeks to include non-putrescible wastes

produced by steel and foundry processes covered by SIC

Codes 3365 and 3366, with the exception of those

foundries that pour leaded brass.

ir Toxic Proposal Goes To Second Notice, R96-4

On March 20, 1997, the Board proposed for second

notice amendments to the toxic air contaminants

regulations. First notice of the proposed amendments

was adopted by the Board on August 1, 1996 and

published in the Illinois Register on August 23, 1996 at

20 Ill. Reg. 11440. The proposed amendments would

add several substances either designated as federal

hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) pursuant to section

112(b) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) or designated by

USEPA as of concern under its "Great Waters" program

under section 112(m) of the CAA. The proposal would

also require all sources that meet certain requirements to

submit an Illinois toxic air contaminants (ITAC) source

report for calendar year 1996, and it would correct

typographical errors in the existing ITAC list.

The Agency filed its proposal on October 13, 1995 to

update the existing ITAC list at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 232.

The Board issued an order on November 2, 1995 that

accepted the proposal and dismissed older subdockets

R90-1(C), relating to toxic air contaminant reporting

requirements, and R90-1(D), relating to adding styrene to

the list of toxic air contaminants. (See issue 499, Dec.,

1995.) The Board consolidated the subject matter of the

older subdockets into new docket R96-4.

mendments To Public Water Supply And

Groundwater Regulations Go To Second Notice,

R96-18

On March 20, 1997, the Board proposed for second

notice amendments to the Subtitle F public water supplies

regulations. First notice was adopted by the Board on

November 21, 1996 and published in the Illinois Register

on December 20, 1996 at 20 Ill. Reg. 15863. The

Subtitle F regulations include the Illinois drinking water

rules, the federally-derived Safe Drinking Water Act

(SDWA) rules, the groundwater quality rules, and the

groundwater protection rules. The opening of the docket

R96-18 followed a June 20, 1996 request by the Illinois

Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) that the

Board consider certain amendments requested in another

proceeding as a separate petition for rulemaking. The

requested amendments basically fall into three categories:

(1) amendments to update and correct several provisions

throughout the text, (2) amendments that would allow the

Agency to issue construction permits notwithstanding the

fact that a supply is listed on "restricted status" for a

violation of the radium MCL, and (3) revision of the

authority note for the groundwater quality regulations to

reflect that it was adopted pursuant to the Environmental

Protection Act.

The Agency submitted a list of desired corrections

and minor amendments in the identical-in-substance

SDWA update docket R95-17, which includes federal

amendments that occurred during the period January 1

through June 30, 1995. In its February 1, 1996 proposed

opinion and order in R95-17, the Board proposed many

of the amendments submitted by the Agency that it felt it

could accomplish using the identical-in-substance

procedure. The Board did not propose several other

suggested amendments that it felt were beyond its

identical-in-substance authority. Rather, the Board

suggested that the Agency should submit a general

rulemaking petition pursuant to Section 27 of the

Environmental Protection Act. The Agency responded

with a request that the Board consider its request for

amendments submitted in R95-17 as a general rulemak-

ing petition. In the June 20, 1996 order, the Board

opened and reserved the new docket R96-18, but it

ordered the Agency to submit an amended petition by

September 1, 1996 that cured the procedural defects in

the R95-17 request. The Agency filed that amended

proposal on September 4, 1996, so the Board proceeded

to accept the proposal. The Board accepted the Agency

proposal on September 19, 1996 and conducted public

hearings on October 25, 1996, in Geneva, and October

30, 1996, in Springfield. (See issue 509, Oct., 1996.)

facilities in Illinois. These rules will now be reviewed by

the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules before

Board adoption in May of this year.

On December 5, 1996, the Board proposed new live-

stock waste regulations for First Notice publication in the

Illinois Register which were published on December 20,

1996 at 20 Ill. Reg. 15906. The proposed rules would

replace emergency rules adopted by the Board on October

29, 1996, under docket number R97-14 and extended by

the Board on March 20, 1997. Public hearings were held

on these rules in Jacksonville on January 14, 1997, in

DeKalb on January 27, 1997, in Galesburg on January

29, 1997, in Mt. Vernon on January 31, 1997, and in

Urbana on February 7,

1997.

The Livestock Waste

Management Act, P.A. 89-

456, was effective May 21,

1996. That legislation

established the Livestock

Management Facilities

Advisory Committee,

composed of the Directors

of the Illinois Department

of Agriculture (IDA),

Department of Natural

Resources, Department of

Public Health, and the

Environmental Protection

Agency, to make recom-

mendations to the IDA for

development of standards

for livestock management facilities. The IDA filed a

rulemaking proposal on October 15, 1996, requesting

that the Board adopt emergency rules governing livestock

waste. Upon finding that "a situation exists that

constitutes a threat to the public interest, safety or

welfare", the Board adopted emergency rules based on

the proposal on October 29, 1996, which became

effective October 31, 1996. The IDA filed a proposal for

permanent rules to replace the emergency rules on

November 21, 1996.

The current proposal is substantially similar to

the emergency rules. The rules outline the proper

design, construction, operation, and management of

livestock management and livestock waste handling

facilities. The rules further provide for recordkeeping

requirements of the Department of Agriculture,

education and certification of livestock managers, and

provisions dealing with setbacks.

mergency Livestock Waste Regulations Ex-

tended, R97-14

On March 20, 1997, the Board extended the emergency

rulemaking adopted on October 29, 1996 to implement

provisions of the Livestock Management Facilities Act

(LMFAct). The extension of this emergency rulemaking

is pursuant to P.A.89-714.

The Illinois Department

of Agriculture (IDA) filed a

general rulemaking proposal

on October 15, 1996 request-

ing that the Board adopt

emergency rules governing

livestock waste. The Board

adopted emergency rules based

on the proposal at a special

Board meeting held on

October 29, 1996. The

emergency rules include

standards for livestock waste

lagoon and holding pond

construction and management,

management and agricultural

application of waste, certifica-

tion of livestock managers,

and permitting of facilities in

Illinois. The emergency rules became effective on

October 31, 1996 when filed with the Secretary of State,

and remain in effect for 150 days, until March 30, 1997.

The extension will extend the emergency rules for

another 150 days after the extension is filed with the

Secretary of State.

IDA filed the proposal pursuant to the Livestock

Management Facilities Act (P.A. 89-456, effective May

21, 1996). That legislation required IDA to prepare and

file a proposal for rules governing waste from livestock

management facilities. The regulations are codified in a

new Part in Subtitle E of the Illinois environmental

regulations, along with the existing agricultural rules.

The existing rules derived in significant part from the

federal National Pollution Discharge Elimination System

(NPDES) regulations under the Clean Water Act (CWA).

eformulated Gasoline and Anti-Dumping Pro-

grams Rule Adjustments: Final Rule

On March 4, 1997, USEPA modified the require-

ments for obtaining a baseline adjustment due to the

production of JP-4 jet fuel in 1990 ( 62 Fed. Reg. 9871).

This rule also allows a baseline adjustment for refiners

who are now unable to acquire extremely sweet crude oil

(that is, crude oil relatively low in sulfur) that had been

available in 1990 and from which the gasoline used to

develop a 1990 individual baseline was obtained.

Finally, this rule allows a baseline adjustment for

refineries which have both extremely low baseline sulfur

and olefin levels.

Under the Clean Air Act as amended in 1990, the

USEPA promulgated anti-dumping regulations for

conventional gasoline, that is, gasoline not certified as

reformulated gasoline. These regulations require that

conventional gasoline not be more polluting than it was

in 1990. The regulations also include provisions for the

development of individual refinery baselines and include

provisions which allow a refinery to obtain an adjusted

baseline under certain, limited circumstances. These

amendments are effective April 22, 1997.

SEPA Requests Comments on Study Relating to

Land Disposal Restrictions--Phase IV

On March 5, 1997, USEPA provided notice of addi-

tional studies on an issue raised in the Land Disposal

Restrictions (LDR) Phase III proposed rule (60 FR

11702, March 2, 1995)(62 Fed. Reg. 10004). The issue

is whether the addition of iron filings (and iron dust) to

lead-contaminated spent foundry sand is a means of

diluting the waste impermissibly rather than treating it to

conform with the requirements of the LDR rules. The

study addresses whether this practice stabilizes (or

otherwise treats) lead, the chief hazardous constituent

found in the spent sand, so that the lead will not migrate

through the environment when the spent sand is land

disposed. Stabilization as a technology-based LDR

standard (STABL) is described in 40 CFR 268.42 as

using the following reagents (or waste reagents) or

combinations of reagents: (1) Portland cement; or (2)

lime/pozzolans (e.g., fly ash and cement kiln dust)--this

does not preclude the addition of reagents (e.g., iron

salts, silicates, and clays) designed to enhance the

set/cure time and/or compressive strength, or to overall

reduce the leachability of the metal or inorganic. New

studies have been performed to evaluate this hazardous

waste management practice, and the studies have

undergone external Peer Review. USEPA is noticing

these studies, and the results of the Peer Review, and

soliciting public comment. USEPA may use the results

of the studies to promulgate a revised final approachto

this waste management practice in an upcoming LDR

rulemaking (Phase IV).

USEPA will accept comments on the study and peer

review through April 4, 1997.

olymeric Diphenylmethane Diisocyanate Still

Subject to Reporting

On March 5, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 10006, USEPA

denied a petition to remove polymeric diphenylmethane

diisocyanate (PMDI) from the diisocyanates category

subject to the reporting requirements under section 313

of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-

Know Act of 1986 (EPCRA) and section 6607 of the

Pollution Prevention Act of 1990 (PPA). USEPA has

reviewed the available toxicological data on this chemical

and has determined that PMDI does not meet the section

313(d)(3) deletion criterion. Therefore, USEPA is

denying the petitioner's request to remove PMDI from the

EPCRA section 313 diisocyanates category.

t

dditional Analytical Methods for Radionuclides

Approved

On March 5, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 10167, USEPA

approved the use of 66 additional analytical methods for

compliance with current radionuclide drinking water

standards and monitoring requirements. The methods

are applicable to gross alpha, gross beta, tritium,

uranium, radium-226, radium-228, gamma emitters, and

radioactive cesium, iodine and strontium. This rule is

expected to satisfy public requests for approval of new

analytical technologies for measuring contaminants in

drinking water. This rule imposes no burdenbecause it

does not withdraw approval of any previously approved

method. This final rule follows the Proposed Notice of

Rulemaking for Radionuclides in Drinking Water

published on July 18, 1991. The 1991 rulemaking

proposed to approve analytical methods and establish

Maximum Contaminant Level Goals (MCLGs) and

National Primary Drinking Water Regulations

(NPDWRs) for several radionuclides.

The final rule is limited to the approval of additional

analytical methods. In addition, since USEPA received

comments suggesting approval of additional methods

during the comment period, USEPA is proceeding with

direct final rule making on 12 of the suggested methods.

USEPA is inviting comments on these 12 methods. The

effective date of the amendments are April 4, 1997 and

May 5, 1997. Comments on the proposed amendments

may be filed with the USEPA through April 4,

1997.These analytical methods will be included in the

CBs Rule Revision Published On Water Quality

Guidance Document for the Great Lakes System

On March 12, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 11723, USEPA

published revisions to the polychlorinated biphenyl

(PCB) ambient water quality criteria for human health

and wildlife for the final Water Quality Guidance for the

Great Lakes System that was published in March, 1995

(the 1995 Guidance). The final revisions are limited to

the method for calculating a composite baseline bioac-

cumulation factor (BAF) for PCBs and the method for

calculating a composite octanol-water partition coeffi-

cient (K

ow

) for PCBs. After reviewing all public

comments, USEPA concluded that the approach it

proposed in October 1996 for calculating a composite

baseline BAF, using the second alternative proposed for

calculating a composite K

ow

, for PCBs would be prefer-

able to the approach used in the 1995 Guidance docu-

ment because it would more appropriately relate the

concentrations of the PCB congeners in tissue to the

concentrations of the PCB congeners in water. Conse-

quently, USEPA is revising the human health cancer

criterion for PCBs from 3.9E-6 ug/L to 6.7E-6 ug/L, and

the wildlife criterion for PCBs from 7.4E-5 ug/L to 1.2E-

4 ug/L. USEPA believes that these revisions more

accurately represent the numerical limits necessary to

protect human health and wildlife in the Great Lakes

System.

The Board has reserved docket R97-25, Great Lakes

Water Quality Initiative, in anticipation of receiving a

related proposal from the Illinois Environmental

Protection Agency.

t

cceptable Substitutes List Updated For Ozone-

Depleting Substances

On March 10, 1997, USEPA provided an updated

list of acceptable substitutes for ozone-depleting sub-

stances (ODS) under the USEPA’s Significant New

Alternatives Policy (SNAP) program. The list can be

found at 62 Fed. Reg. 10700.

t

urability Procedure Amendments for Light-Duty

Vehicles and Light-Duty Trucks Withdrawn

Due to receipt of an adverse comment USEPA is

withdrawing this direct final rule. On March 11, 1997 at

62 Fed. Reg. 11082, USEPA removed the amendments

made by the direct final rule and restored the regulatory

text that existed prior to the direct final rule. The direct

final rule was published on November 15, 1996 at 61

Fed. Reg. 58618 and extended the applicability of

durability regulations for light duty vehicles and light

duty trucks. (See Dec. 1996 Env. Reg. #511 at pg. 10.)

t

lean Air: VOM and RACT Amendments Ap-

proved to Illinois State Implementation Plan

On March 12, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 11327, USEPA

approved, by direct final rule, Illinois' May 5, 1995, May

26, 1995, and May 31, 1995, submittal of miscellaneous

amendments to Illinois'' Volatile Organic Material

(VOM) Reasonably Available Control Technology

(RACT) rules as requested revisions to Illinois' State

Implementation Plan (SIP) for ozone. VOM, as defined

by the State of Illinois, is identical to “volatile organic

compounds'' (VOC), as defined by USEPA. These

amendments make certain clarifications to the State's

VOM RACT rules, and include an exemption of certain

polyethylene foam packaging operations from these rules.

In this action, USEPA is approving the requested SIP

revision through a “direct final” rulemaking. The

approval will be effective on May 12, 1997 unless

adverse comments are received by the USEPA before

April 11, 1997.

The revisions include the Parts IV, V & VI 15%

ROP rules, adopted April 20, 1996 by the Board in

dockets R94-21, R94-31 & R94-32.

ource Water Protection Workshops Planned

USEPA is planning a number of source water protection

workshops around the country as it attempts to put

together guidance for states on a source water protection

program. Under the 1996 Safe Drinking Water

Act(SDWA) Amendments, states will be required to

delineate all public water supply sources and identify all

potential sources of contamination. States may use up to

USEPA has scheduled a public meeting for Spring-

field, Illinois on April 11, 1997 on this matter. (See 62

Fed. Reg. 11433, Mar. 12, 1997.)

t

mendments Proposed to State Sewage Sludge

Management Programs

On March 11, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 11269, USEPA

proposed amendments to its requirements for approvable

state sewage sludge management programs. USEPA

administers the sewage sludge management programs in

state until the state opts to establish a federally-approved

program. USEPA stated in the discussion of its proposal

that it established its initial requirements for approval of

state programs in 1989 (40 CFR 123 & 501), and that

only two states presently have approved programs (Utah

and Oklahoma). USEPA intends to simplify the

requirements for state programs, to remove what it

perceives as a barrier to states pursuing program

approval.

t

roposed Revision to Definition of Volatile

Organic Compounds Excludes 16 Compounds

On March 17, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 12583, USEPA

proposed to revise the definition of volatile organic

compounds (VOC) for purposes of preparing State

implementation plans (SIP's) to attain the national

ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for ozone under

title I of the Clean Air Act (CAA) and for any Federal

implementation plan (FIP) for an ozone nonattainment

area. This proposed revision would add 16 compounds to

the list of compounds excluded from the definition of

VOC on the basis that these compounds have negligible

contribution to tropospheric ozone formation. These

compounds have potential for use as refrigerants, aerosol

propellants, fire extinguishers, blowing agents and

solvents. Several of these compounds may be used as

alternatives to chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's) which are

being phased out of production as stratospheric ozone

depleters. Comments on the proposal should be submit-

ted to USEPA before April 16, 1996.

t

llotment of Drinking Water State Revolving

Fund Monies

On March 18, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 12899, USEPA

announced its decision on allotment of Drinking Water

State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) monies to States. For

fiscal year 1997, funds will be allotted based on the

formula used to distribute public water systems supervi-

sion grants in fiscal year 1995. For fiscal year 1998 and

subsequent fiscal years, funds will be allotted based on

each State's proportional share of the total eligible needs

for the States, derived from the Drinking Water Infra-

structure Needs Survey: First Report to Congress. Each

State will be allotted at least one percent of the funds

available to the States. Illinois was allotted $38,500,000

for 1997 (3.1% of the total available) and $24,800,000

for 1998 (3.5% of the total available).

onsent Decrees Proposed for Comment

U.S. v. LTV Steel - The Justice Department, on March

20, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 13393 announced a consent

decree in a CAA enforcement action against an Illinois

facility. Under the agreement, LTV Steel would pay

$1,250,000 for its failure to comply with its Prevention of

Significant Deterioration (PSD) construction permit and

for NESHAP violations for coke battery emissions. LTV

further agreed to install certain emissions controls. The

proposed Consent Decree was filed in United States v.

LTV Steel Company, Civil Action No. 97C-623, in the

United States District Court for the Northern District of

Illinois on February 2, 1997. Comments relating to the

proposed Consent Decree should be submitted to the

Department of Justice before April 20, 1997.

Sierra Club v. USEPA - On March 25, 1997 at 62

Fed. Reg. 14139, USEPA published notice of a proposed

consent decree in Sierra Club, National Wildlife

Federation, Chesapeake Bay Foundation, Inc. v. Carol M.

Browner, Administrator, United States Environmental

Protection Agency, No. 96-1680 (D.C. Cir.). This citizen

suit was filed under section 304(a)(2) of the Act, 42

U.S.C. 7604(a)(2). The action contests USEPA's alleged

failure to meet mandatory deadlines under sections

112(m)(5) and (m)(6) of the Act, 42 U.S.C. 7412(m)(5)

and (m)(6), which concern the atmospheric deposition of

hazardous air pollutants to the Great Lakes, the Chesa-

peake Bay, Lake Champlain and the coastal waters of the

United States. The proposed consent decree provides that

USEPA shall take certain actions under those provisions

in accordance with specified schedules. USEPA will

accept comments on the proposed consent decree through

April 24, 1997.

t

hanges in Requirements For Registration and

Extension of Deadlines of Fuels and Fuel Addi-

tives

On March 17, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 12564, USEPA

promulgated a final rule that finalizes several specific

changes to existing regulations which require the

registration and testing of designated motor vehicle fuels

and fuel additives (F/FAs) by their manufacturers.

Included are changes to the regulatory definitions of “fuel

manufacturer”, “additive”, and “small business”, as well

as modifications to grouping rules for biodiesel and

synthetic fuels. These changes will streamline F/FA

registration and testing burdens and reduce the number

of registrants, while maintaining the informational value

of the program and its contributions to the public health

and environmental goals of the Clean Air Act. The rule

is effective May 16, 1997.

On March 17, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 12572 by direct

final rule, USEPA extended Tier 1 deadlines for biodiesel

fuels and Tier 2 deadlines for atypical fuels and fuel

additives (F/FAs). These short delays are not expected to

have a substantial impact on the benefits of the F/FA

testing program, and may prevent certain manufacturers

from making unnecessary expenditures. In this direct

final rule USEPA also modified the survey precision

requirements under the reformulated gasoline (RFG)

complex model. This action will permit survey managers

to submit a proposed sample size based upon the

precision with which means of emission parameters can

be estimated, subject to USEPA approval. USEPA

expects that this will provide significant cost savings to

respondents, without adverse environmental impact.

This direct final rule is effective May 16, 1997 unless

adverse comments are received by USEPA before April

16, 1997.

t

xygenated Gasoline Program Reformulated

Eliminated From the Reformulated Gasoline Regula-

tions

On March 17, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 12586, USEPA

proposed to amend the reformulated gasoline (RFG)

regulations to eliminate the separate treatment for a

category of gasoline used in oxygen averaging. This

category, oxygenated gasoline program reformulated

gasoline (OPRG), includes gasoline intended for use in a

state oxygenated gasoline program control area during

the winter time. Under the current RFG regulations, a

refiner must meet the oxygen content standards for the

entire pool of gasoline they produce, and for the pool of

gasoline they produce that is non-OPRG. USEPA is

proposing this action because it no longer believes a

distinction between OPRG and non-OPRG is necessary

and because removal of the OPRG category would add

flexibility and reduce compliance costs for regulated

parties, without producing a negative environmental

impact. Comments on the proposal should be submitted

to USEPA before April 16, 1996.

t

tatements of Principles for Nonroad Phase 2

Small Spark-Ignited Engines

On March 27, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 14739, USEPA

provided advance notice of a proposed rulemaking.

USEPA is developing a second phase of national air

emission regulations that affect small spark-ignited (SI)

engines used primarily in lawn and garden equipment.

USEPA expects the program to reduce combined

emissions of hydrocarbon (HC) and oxides of nitrogen

(NOX) from these engines by an additional 30 to 40

percent beyond Phase 1 levels, in excess of 100,000 tons

of HC per year with minimal changes in NOX. In 1996,

USEPA and certain other interested parties signed two

different Statements of Principles (SOPs) that describe

various aspects of the Phase 2 program that USEPA will

propose. One SOP focuses on provisions that would

affect engines used in handheld equipment such as leaf

blowers, chain saws, and trimmers. The second SOP

addresses provisions that would affect engines used in

nonhandheld equipment such as lawnmowers and

generator sets. USEPA is issuing this ANPRM to: notify

the public about the availability of the two small SI

nonroad engine SOPs; request comment on the SOPs,

and; inform interested parties about the forthcoming

Phase 2 small SI engine Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

(NPRM) which will be based in part on the two SOPs.

Comments should be submitted to USEPA by April 28,

1997.

t

roposed Guidelines Establishing Test Procedures

Drinking Water Regulations Under CWA & SDWA

On March 28, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 14975, USEPA

proposed a rule to streamline the process for USEPA

approval of analytical methods (and modifications

thereof) under the Clean Water Act (CWA) and the Safe

Drinking Water Act (SDWA). The current methods

approval process applies to and is used by public and

private laboratories, manufacturers of analytical equip-

ment and analysts who modify analytical methods or who

develop new methods for use in compliance monitoring

under the CWA and SDWA. The proposed rule only

affects states if they choose to adopt the proposed

streamlined process as part of their laboratory auditing

programs. Under the streamlined methods approval

system, USEPA would increase the analyst's flexibility to

modify existing test procedures, expedite approval of new

and modified test procedures, establish and require the

use of standardized quality control (QC) and QC

acceptance criteria in existing and new test procedures,

and recommend use of standard data elements for

reporting test results. Comments should be submitted to

USEPA by June 26, 1997.

April, 1997

ENVIRONMENTAL REGISTER No. 514

On March 19, 1997 at 62 Fed. Reg. 13176, the U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued guidance,

in the form of a technical position, that may be used, in

case-by-case requests, by appropriate licensees, to dispose

of a specific incident-related mixed waste. Mixed waste

is a waste that not only is radioactive, but also is

classified as hazardous under the Resource Conservation

and Recovery Act (RCRA). The specific mixed waste

addressed is emission control dust from electric arc

furnaces (EAFs) or foundries that has been contaminated

with cesium-137 (\137\Cs). The contamination results

from the inadvertent melting of a \137\Cs source that: (1)

has been improperly disposed of by an NRC or Agree-

ment State licensee; (2) has been commingled with the

steel scrap supply; (3) has not been detected as it

progresses to the steel-producing process; and (4) is

volatilized in the production process and thereby can and

has contaminated large volumes of emission control dust

and the emission control systems at steel-producing

facilities. The position, which has been coordinated with

USEPA, provides the possibility of a public health-

protective, environmentally sound, and cost-effective

alternative for the disposal of a large part of this mixed

waste, much of which contains \137\Cs in concentrations

similar to values that frequently occur in the environ-

ment. The position provides the bases that, with the

approval of the appropriate regulatory authorities (e.g.,

State-permitting agencies) and others such as disposal

site operators, allowing for possible public input, this

waste could be disposed of as stabilized waste at Subtitle

C, RCRA-permitted, hazardous waste disposal facilities.

NRC believes that disposal, under the provisions of the

position or other acceptable alternatives, is preferable to

allowing this mixed waste to remain indefinitely at steel

company sites.
