Board Adopts Request for Public
Comments and/or Proposals on
Agricultural-Related Pollution
(Management of Livestock
Waste): Amendments to 35 Ill.
Adm. Code 501 through 504 ,
R98-11
On September 4, 1997, the
Board opened docket R98-11 to
solicit public comments and/or
proposals to assist the Board in
identifying and reconciling any
inconsistencies between the
Board’s regulations (35 Ill. Adm.
Code 506) adopted pursuant to the
Livestock Management Facilities
Act (Livestock Act) (516 ILCS
77/1 (1996)) and previously
existing regulations concerning
agricultural-related pollution
adopted by the Board (35 Ill. Adm.
Code 501 through 504).
The Livestock Act, effective
May 21, 1996, set forth an outline
for the proper design, construction,
operation, and management of
livestock management facilities and
associated waste handling
structures. It further provided for
education and certification of
livestock managers, research,
proper disposal of livestock waste,
and financial responsibility for
closure of lagoons. The Livestock
Act directed the Department of
Agriculture to seek input from the

APPELLATE UPDATE
International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural
Implement Workers of America and UAW Local 974; and Citizens for a
Better Environment v. Illinois Pollution Control Board, Illinois Environ-
mental Protection Agency, and Caterpillar, Inc.
, No. 3-96-0931 (3rd Dist.
September 10, 1997) (unpublished order under Illinois Supreme Court Rule 23),
petition for rehearing denied, October 9, 1997
On September 10, 1997, the Third District Appellate Court affirmed the
Board’s decision in the aforementioned case. In the Board’s August 1, 1996,
opinion and order, the Board found that Caterpillar, Inc. (Caterpillar) was in
violation of several of the State’s Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
(RCRA) regulations as well as a groundwater violation pursuant to the Illinois
Environmental Protection Act (Act). See International Union
et al
. v. Caterpillar
(August 1, 1996), PCB 94-240. Concurrently, the Board found that Caterpillar
had properly managed the excavated soil, which contained hazardous waste.
The Board concluded that no civil penalty or other remedy was warranted
because Caterpillar was fully in compliance with the RCRA requirements for
approximately one year prior to the filing of this citizens’ enforcement action.
The Board further reasoned that a penalty was unwarranted because Caterpillar
had committed to a RCRA closure plan and was remediating its groundwater
contamination problem as agreed to with the Illinois Environmental Protection
Agency (IEPA).
The Caterpillar site, which was the subject of this appeal, was located at
Caterpillar’s East Peoria, Illinois facility. During excavation of the site in
November 1990, workers complained of odors, lightheadedness, nausea, and
headaches. Caterpillar’s environmental personnel thereafter

Rulemaking Update
??????? ???? ????
Management Facilities Advisory Committee to propose
rules to the Board for implementation of the Livestock
Act. On May 15, 1997, the Board adopted such rules for
implementation by the Department of Agriculture. See In
the Matter of: Livestock Waste Regulations 35 Ill. Adm.
Code 506 (May 15, 1997), R97-15(A), published at 21 Ill.
Reg. 6851 (June 6, 1997).
In adopting R97-15(A) for second notice, the Board
noted that it had in place regulations specific to livestock
waste management facilities. The Board acknowledged
that the pre-existing regulations were promulgated long
before the agricultural changes and trends noted by the
legislature in adopting the Livestock Act. Accordingly,
the Board and several participants observed that the
adoption of rules pursuant to the Livestock Act may create
inconsistencies with existing Board regulations. The
Board agreed that any inconsistencies created should be
reconciled and stated that a new rulemaking docket would
be opened to address these inconsistencies at the appro-
priate time. See In the Matter of: Livestock Waste
Regulations 35 Ill. Adm. Code 506 (March 20, 1997),
R97-15(A) & (B), slip op. at 4 n. 7. Consequently, on
September 4, 1997, the Board opened this docket to
address any inconsistencies in the Board’s pre-existing
agricultural-related pollution rules (35 Ill. Adm. Code 501
through 504).

ing may be directed to Cynthia Ervin at 217/524-8509, e-

oard Adopts First Notice Proposal in Fast Track
Air Rulemaking regarding Major Stationary
Sources Construction and Modification (New
Source Review Rules): Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm.
Code 203), R98-10
On September 4, 1997, the Board adopted for first
notice a proposal to amend 35 Ill. Adm. Code 203, the
New Source Review (NSR) rules, docketed by the Board
as R98-10. On September 2, 1997, the Illinois Environ-
mental Protection Agency (IEPA) filed this proposal for
rulemaking to amend the NSR rules. This rulemaking
proposes to revise particular sections in 35 Ill. Adm. Code
203 so that the language more closely reflects the
terminology used in Sections 182(c)(7) and (8) of the
Clean Air Act. 42 U.S.C.
?
7511(c)(7), (8) (1996). The
proposal affects existing sources in ozone nonattainment
areas that are subject to the “special rules” for modifica-
tions found at Sections 182(c)(7) and (8) of the Clean Air
Act,
i.e.
, existing sources making “major” modifications at
sources in serious and severe ozone nonattainment areas.
(This would, as a practical matter, currently affect only the
Chicago ozone nonattainment area. See 35 Ill. Adm.
Code 218.103.)
The Board had adopted the “special rules” as portions
of Sections 203.206, 203.207, and 203.301 in its rule-
making entitled In the Matter of: Amendments to New
Source Review Rules, 35 Ill. Adm. Code 203 (April 22,
1993), R92-21. These rules were based on the IEPA’s
understanding of the United States Environmental
Protection Agency’s (USEPA) preliminary guidance on
Sections 182(c)(7) and (8) of the Clean Air Act. The
current proposal amends the Board’s rules to be consistent
with the USEPA’s more recent interpretation of the
“special rules” in its 1996 NSR rule proposal. 61 Fed.
Reg. 38249 (July 23, 1996). The proposed rules change
the method of handling internal emission offsets, which
may allow a source to “net-out” of NSR rule requirements
or at least avoid imposition of some Best Available
Control Technology and Lowest Achievable Emission
Rate requirements. The IEPA asserts that these proposed
rules also will impact some calculations under the
proposed Emissions Reduction Market System (ERMS).
See In the Matter of: Emissions Reduction Market
System: 35 Ill. Adm. Code 205 (July 10, 1997), R97-13.
The ERMS program is an element of Illinois’ “Rate of
Progress” plan required by Section 182(c)(2)(B) of the
Clean Air Act.
This proposal was filed pursuant to Section 28.5 of
the Environmental Protection Act (Act). 415 ILCS 5/28.5
(1996). Pursuant to that section, the Board is required to
proceed within set timeframes toward the adoption of the
regulation. The Board has no discretion to adjust these
timeframes under any circumstances.
Pursuant to Section 28.5 of the Act (415 ILCS 5/28.5
(1996)), the Board held the first hearing on Friday,
October 17, 1997, at 10:00 a.m. in Room 9-040, James R.
Thompson Center, 100 W. Randolph St., Chicago, at
which time the IEPA presented its testimony and was
subjected to cross-questioning regarding its proposal. The
second hearing, if requested, will be held on November
24, 1997, at 10:00 a.m. in Room 9-040, James R.
Thompson Center, 100 W. Randolph St., Chicago, at
which time any interested parties may testify regarding the
proposal and will be subjected to cross-questioning. The
third hearing, if requested by the IEPA, will be held on
December 9, 1997, at 10:00 a.m. in Suite 11-500,
Conference Room, James R. Thompson Center, 100 W.
Randolph St., Chicago, at which time the IEPA may rebut
any testimony given at the second hearing. Please note
that the second hearing has been relocated from the
Conference Room in Suite 11-500 to Room 9-040 at the
James R. Thompson Center. While the first hearing is
mandatory, the second and third hearings may be canceled
without notice. Please contact the Board at 312/814-3620
to confirm the times and locations of the hearings as well
as whether the second and third hearings will be held.

oard Dismisses Rulemaking on Toxic Air Con-
taminants (35 Ill. Adm. Code 232): Environ-
mental Effects Consideration, R90-1(B)
On September 4, 1997, the Board dismissed this
rulemaking, docketed by the Board as R90-1(B). Docket
R90-1 was opened January 2, 1990, to address the Illinois
Environmental Protection Agency’s (IEPA) proposal to
create a list of toxic air contaminants (TACs) as required
by Section 9.5(e) of the Illinois Environmental Protection
Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/9.5(e) (1996)). After hearings, by
order of September 26, 1991, the Board adopted a first
notice proposal in R90-1(A). In that same order, the
Board created subdocket R90-1(B) to address the question
of developing environmental effects criteria for selecting
TACs. See In the Matter of: Toxic Air Contaminants List
(35 Ill. Adm. Code 232) September 26, 1991, R90-1, slip
op. at 14. Final rules were adopted in R90-1(A) on
September 3, 1992.
No such proposal has been filed in R90-1(B) by the
IEPA. The IEPA’s July 1997 regulatory agenda submittal
to the Board for
Illinois Register
publication (21 Ill. Reg.
11299 (August 8, 1997)) did not contain any listing for
this item. Consequently, the Board dismissed this docket;
however, the Board provided that should the IEPA file a
proposal in this matter, it would be assigned a new docket
number.

oard Proposes First Notice Order In the Matter
of: Wood Furniture Coating: Amendments to 35
Ill. Adm. Code 211, 218, and 219, R 97-31
On September 18, 1997, the Board proposed for first
notice publication in the
Illinois Register
amendments to
35 Ill. Adm. Code 211, 218, and 219 regarding wood
furniture coating operations. The Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency proposed the amendments, docketed
by the Board as R97-31, requesting that the Board amend
its ozone air quality control regulations in response to the
issuance by the United States Environmental Protection
Agency of a Control Technique Guideline governing
wood furniture coating operations. The amendments
consist of changes in the values and units of measurements
for volatile organic material content of top coats and
sealers and the establishment of new work practice
standards. Most of the Board’s existing regulations
governing wood furniture coating operations would not be
affected by the adoption of this proposal. The proposed
effective date of the amendments is March 15, 1998.
Hearings were held in Edwardsville on August 5, 1997,
and in Chicago on August 13, 1997. A 45-day comment
period will begin following publication in the
Illinois
Register,
during which interested persons may file public
comments with the Clerk of the Board.

oard Adopts First Notice Order In the Matter of:
Site-Specific Petition of Mobil Oil Corporation for
Relief from 35 Ill. Adm. Code 304.122, Ammonia
Nitrogen Effluent Standards, R 97-28
On September 18, 1997, the Board adopted for first
notice amendments in the
Illinois Register
in the matter of
the site-specific petition of Mobil Oil Corporation for
relief from 35 Ill. Adm. Code 304.122 regarding ammonia
nitrogen effluent standards, docketed by the Board as
R97-28. Following publication in the
Illinois Register
, a
45-day comment period began, during which interested
persons may file public comments with the Clerk of the
Board.
On April 24, 1997, Mobil Oil Corporation (Mobil)
filed a petition for rulemaking, requesting that the Board’s
effluent regulations, as applicable to Mobil’s refinery near
Joliet, be amended to provide site-specific ammonia
nitrogen effluent standards for Mobil’s discharge to the
Des Plaines River. A public hearing in this matter was
held in Bolingbrook, Illinois on July 2, 1997. In opposi-
tion to Mobil’s request, the Attorney General contended
that the Board should not grant Mobil its requested
adjusted standard because Mobil had failed to identify that
breakpoint chlorination is a generally recognized and
accepted treatment for ammonia in wastewater effluent.
In its first notice opinion, the Board noted that the
scientific evidence offered by the Attorney General in
support of its assertion is insufficient to warrant requiring
Mobil to install breakpoint chlorination as a prerequisite
to granting the requested site-specific petition. The
Attorney General also asserted that the Board should
sunset Mobil’s site-specific rule. In its first notice opinion
and order, the Board indicated that it agreed with the
Attorney General’s concerns and ordered that the site-
specific rule granted to Mobil will sunset after ten years.

oard Grants Motions for Leave to File Comments
in the Matter of: Conforming Amendments for
the Great Lakes Initiative: 35 Ill. Adm. Code
302.101, 302.105, 302.Subpart E, 303.443, and 304.222,
R 97-25
On September 18, 1997, the Board granted several
pending motions for leave to file comments, to supple-
ment the record, and to accept language changes in In the
Matter of: Conforming Amendments for Great Lakes
Initiative: 35 Ill. Adm. Code 302.101, 302.105,
302.Subpart E, 303.443, 304.222, docketed by the Board
as R97-25. The Board reserved ruling on the motions
filed to establish a subdocket in this rulemaking.
Based on target dates established in the Board’s order
of May 15, 1997, it was originally anticipated that the
record in this matter would close on September 4, 1997.
As the last of the public comments were not received until
September 12, 1997, the Board has been unable to adhere
to its projected schedule. The Board anticipates that upon
review of the record and comments, a second notice order
will be adopted as expeditiously as possible.

oard Consolidates Dockets and Sets Forth Reasons
for Delay in Adoption of Resource Conservation
and Recovery (July 1, 1996 through December 31,
1996, January 1, 1997 through June 30, 1997) and
Underground Injection Control (January 1, 1997
through June 30, 1997) Updates, R 97-21, R 98-3, R
98-5 (consolidated)
On September 18, 1997, the Board consolidated
dockets R97-21, R98-3, R98-5 In the Matter of: Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act and Underground
Injection Control Updates and set forth reasons for its
delay in adopting these identical-in-substance regulations.
Because segments of R97-21, R98-3, and R98-5 are
closely related, the Board consolidated these dockets to
allow more rapid adoption of all of the amendments.
On October 17, 1996, and May 1, 1997, the Board
adopted an order setting forth the reasons for the Board’s
delay as follows:
“Due to the present and recent-past demands on
Board resources and personnel, including those
associated with completing the two prior updates,
R95-4/R95-6 and R95-20, the Board has been
unable to commence the amendments in dockets
R96-10 and R97-5 in such a way that it has been
able to complete rulemaking activities within one
year. The amendments involved in dockets R96-
4/R95-6 and R95-20 represented significant ef-
forts on the part of the Board, given the magni-
tude of the amendments and competing priorities
for the Board and its staff. Those amendments,
the magnitude of the amendments involved in
consolidated dockets R96-10/R97-3/R97-5, and
other competing priorities have resulted in un-
avoidable delay.”
The present delay in the current update docket is the
result of the delays experienced in the previous 500-page
consolidated update docket. Due to the complexity of the
hazardous waste regulations and the fact that many
provisions that are under revision in the present docket are
also involved in the prior update docket, the Board finds
that it is impractical to have two sets of amendments to
these rules simultaneously pending.
The Board anticipates assembling a proposal for
public comment for consideration in November or
December 1997.

ing may be directed to Michael McCambridge at 312/814-

performed testing at the excavation site which disclosed
the existence of chemicals consistent with those present at
a former dry-cleaning operation that had been discontin-
ued by Caterpillar in 1976. Based on this finding,
Caterpillar entered the IEPA’s pre-notice program for the
cleanup of the contaminated soil. The excavated,
contaminated soil was stored in two other buildings which
were managed under a RCRA closure plan. Caterpillar
had a RCRA Part A interim status permit for the facility,
which expired in November 1992.
On appeal, International Union, United Automobile,
Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of
America, and UAW Local 974, and Citizens for a Better
Environment (collectively UAW and CBE) contended that
the Board erred when it decided that Caterpillar did not
need to file a Part B permit application in order to fully
comply with RCRA. UAW and CBE further argued that
the Board improperly found that Caterpillar could amend
its Part A permit application and that the Board improp-
erly relied on Caterpillar’s participation in the IEPA’s pre-
notice program in determining whether Caterpillar
violated RCRA. UAW and CBE also asserted that the
Board should have imposed penalties against Caterpillar
and that the Board should have allowed the second motion
to reconsider filed by UAW and CBE.
In the cross-appeal, Caterpillar argued that the con-
taminated soil excavated and managed by Caterpillar was
not a hazardous waste, and that Caterpillar was not in
violation of the groundwater provision found at Section
12(a) of the Act. 415 ILCS 5/12(a) (1996). Caterpillar
also argued that the Board should have imposed sanctions
against UAW and CBE for discovery violations.
The Third District Appellate Court affirmed the
Board’s decision in its entirety in an unpublished rule 23
order. The court found that Caterpillar did not need to
submit a Part B permit application for the contaminated
soil stored in Building X, which was one of two buildings
that housed the excavated soil removed from the contami-
nated area. Because UAW and CBE failed to cite any
case law supporting the proposition that a Part B permit
was required under the exact circumstances of this case,
the court agreed that the Board’s decision was reasonable
and not contrary to the applicable regulations. The court
also concurred with the Board’s reasoning that after
Caterpillar’s Part A application of interim status termi-
nated in 1992, and it entered into an IEPA-approved
closure plan under RCRA, a Part B permit was not
necessary. Accordingly, the court concluded that the
Board reasonably found that Caterpillar could amend its
Part A permit while continuing with its closure plan after
the termination of interim status.
The court further agreed with the Board that Cater-
pillar appropriately participated in the pre-notice program
under the auspices of the IEPA. Although UAW and CBE
argued that the Board should have ordered a penalty
against Caterpillar, the court disagreed, relying on the
Board’s broad discretionary powers in imposing civil
penalties. In its unpublished opinion, the court also
concluded that, while the Board considered the Section
33(c) factors (415 ILCS 5/33(c) (1996)) in making its
decision to impose a penalty, the Board need not issue a
distinct finding as to each enumerated factor of Section
33(c). The court also agreed with the Board that the
Section 42(h) factors (415 ILCS 5/42(h) (1996)) need
only be considered when a fine is actually imposed against
a party. Finally, the court decided that the Board acted
appropriately in denying UAW and CBE’s second motion
to reconsider since the Board’s rules did not allow for
multiple motions to reconsider.
In Caterpillar’s cross-appeal, the court agreed with
the Board that the evidence was sufficient to support a
determination that the soil was contaminated with
hazardous wastes. The court concurred with the Board in
its reasoning which found that the IEPA had correctly
applied the “contained-in” rule to the contaminated soil.
With regard to the groundwater violation under Section
12(a) of the Act, the court agreed that the evidence
showed chemicals in the groundwater. In conclusion, the
court disagreed with Caterpillar’s request for attorney fees
as a sanction against UAW and CBE since the court had
recently held that the Board lacked such authority in ESG
Watts, Inc. v. Pollution Control Board, 286 Ill. App. 3d
325, 338-39, 676 N.E.2d 299, 308-09 (3rd Dist. 1997).
Finding no reason to reverse or remand, the Third District
Appellate Court affirmed the Board’s order in its entirety.

FEDERAL ACTIONS
nited States Environmental Protection Agency
Solicits Statements of Interests from Communities
Interested in being Designated Brownfields
Showcase Communities
On August 20, 1997, the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA) solicited statements of
interest from communities interested in being designated
as Brownfields showcase communities. 62 Fed. Reg.
44274 (August 20, 1997). In its solicitation, the USEPA
acknowledged that the following federal agencies are
participating in the selection and implementation of the
Brownfields showcase communities: Department of
Agriculture; Department of Commerce; Department of
Defense; Department of Education; Department of
Energy; Department of Health and Human Services;
Department of Housing and Urban Development;
Department of the Interior; Department of Justice;
Department of Labor; Department of Transportation;
Department of the Treasury; Department of Veterans
Affairs; General Services Administration; and the Small
Business Administration.
Brownfields are abandoned, idled, or underused in-
dustrial and commercial properties where expansion or
redevelopment is complicated by real or perceived
contamination. The Brownfields initiative was launched
to empower states, local governments, and other stake-
holders in economic redevelopment to work together to
assess, clean up, and sustainably reuse brownfields.
Communities have asked for more interaction among all
levels of government, the private sector, and non-
governmental organizations. In response, federal agencies
have joined together to strengthen and improve their
collaborative efforts to clean up and reuse contaminated
property.
The goals of the Brownfields showcase communities
project are to: promote environmental protection,
restoration, economic redevelopment, job creation,
community revitalization, and public health protection,
through the assessment, cleanup, and sustainable reuse of
brownfields; link federal, state, local, and non-
governmental action supporting community efforts to
restore and reuse brownfields; and develop national
models demonstrating the positive results of public and
private collaboration in addressing Brownfields chal-
lenges.

please contact the USEPA, 401 M Street, SW, Washing-
ton, DC 20460.

pproval of 60-Day Extension of Public Comment
Period for the Lake Calumet and McCook,
Illinois Particulate Matter Nonattainment Areas;
Proposed Disapproval of Granite City, Illinois as
Particulate Matter Attainment Area
On September 9, 1997, the United States Environ-
mental Protection Agency (USEPA) announced a 60-day
extension of the public comment period for a state
implementation plan (SIP) affecting Illinois. 62 Fed. Reg.
47399 (September 9, 1997). Comments on this proposal
will now be accepted through October 20, 1997, at
USEPA, Region 5, 77 W. Jackson Blvd., Chicago, Illinois
60604. On July 22, 1997, the USEPA published a
proposed rule proposing limited approval and limited
disapproval of the Granite City portion of a SIP revision
request which was submitted by Illinois on November 14,
1995, May 9, 1996, June 14, 1996, and February 3, 1997,
to meet commitments related to the conditional approval
of Illinois’ May 15, 1992, SIP submittal for the Lake
Calumet (southeast Chicago), McCook, and Granite City,
Illinois, particulate matter (PM) nonattainment areas. 62
Fed. 39199 (July 22, 1997). The proposed limited
approval and limited disapproval action entails approval
of the regulations into the Illinois SIP for their strength-
ening effect, and disapproval of the submittal for not
meeting all of the commitments of the conditional
approval. The Board adopted these regulations in In the
Matter of: Visible and Particulate Matter Emissions:
Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 212 (May 16, 1996),
R96-5, on May 16, 1996 (20 Ill. Reg. 7605 (June 7,
1996)). All of the deficiencies were corrected, except that
Illinois failed to provide an opacity limit for coke oven
combustion stacks which is reflective of their mass limits.
In the same notice, the USEPA also proposed to dis-
approve Illinois’ March 19, 1996, and October 15, 1996,
request to redesignate the Granite City area to attainment
for PM because the area has not fully complied with the
implementation plan.

ithdrawal of Approval and Promulgation of
Volatile Organic Compound State Implementation
Plan in Illinois
On September 3, 1997, the United States Environ-
mental Protection Agency (USEPA) withdrew its July 14,
1997, final rule approving Illinois’ rate-of-progress (ROP)
plan to reduce volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
(known in Illinois as volatile organic materials) in the
Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis areas. 62 Fed. Reg.
46446 (September 3, 1997). On July 14, 1997, the
USEPA approved Illinois’ July 14, 1997, submittal of
ROP plans to reduce VOC emissions in the Chicago and
Metro-East St. Louis areas by 15% by November 15,

1996, contingency plans to reduce VOC emissions by an
additional 3% beyond the ROP plans, and transportation
control measures for the Metro-East St. Louis area as
revisions to the Illinois state implementation plan (SIP).
62 Fed. Reg. 37494 (July 14, 1997). The USEPA is
withdrawing this final rule due to receipt of adverse
comments. In a subsequent final rule, USEPA will
summarize and respond to the comments received and
announce final rulemaking action on these requested SIP
revisions.

econd Emergency Revision of the Land Disposal
Restrictions: Treatment Standards for Listed
Hazardous Wastes from Carbamate Production
On August 28, 1997, the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA) adopted a second emergency
revision, extending the time that the alternative carbamate
treatment standards are in place by one additional year.
62 Fed. Reg. 45568 (August 28, 1997). The USEPA is
taking this action because analytical problems associated
with the measurement of constituent levels in carbamate
wastes residues have not yet been resolved. This action
became effective on August 21, 1997.
In the first emergency rule, USEPA promulgated
temporary alternative treatment standards for carbamate
wastes for a one-year period. 61 Fed. Reg. 43924 (August
26, 1996). USEPA believed that one year was sufficient
time for laboratory standards to be developed and for
laboratories to take appropriate steps to do the necessary
analyses for these wastes. The Board would expect to
include these amendments in a forthcoming Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act update docket pursuant to
its identical-in-substance rulemaking mandates under
Sections 7.2 and 22.4(a) of the Environmental Protection
Act (415 ILCS 5/7.2, 22.4(a) (1996)).
?
xclusion of 16 Compounds from the Definition of
Volatile Organic Compounds
On August 25, 1997, the United States Environmental
Protection Agency revised its definition of volatile
organic compounds (VOC) (known in Illinois as volatile
organic materials) for purposes of preparing state
implementation plans (SIP) to attain the national ambient
air quality standards (NAAQS) for ozone under Title I of
the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C.
?
7401 (1996)) and for any
federal implementation plan for an ozone nonattainment
area. 62 Fed. Reg. 44900 (August 25, 1997). This
revision adds 16 compounds to the list of compounds
excluded from the definition of VOC on the basis that
these compounds have negligible contribution to tro-
pospheric ozone formation. These compounds have
potential for use as refrigerants, aerosol propellants, fire
extinguishants, blowing agents, and solvents. This rule is
effective September 24, 1997. The Board would expect to
include these amendments in a forthcoming volatile
organic material update docket pursuant to its identical-in-
substance rulemaking mandates under Sections 7.2 and
9.1 of the Environmental Protection Act (415 ILCS 5/7.2,
9.1 (1996)).

ational Emission Standard for Hazardous Air
Pollutants for Polyether Polyols Production
On September 4, 1997, the United States Environ-
mental Protection Agency (USEPA) proposed a rule to
reduce emissions of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) from
existing and new facilities that manufacture polyether
polyols and are located at major source plant sites. 62
Fed. Reg. 46803 (September 4, 1997). Polyether polyols
are used to make a variety of products. Urethane grade
polyether polyols are used as raw material in the produc-
tion of polyurethanes, including slabstock and molded
flexible foam, rigid foams, and other polyurethanes
including microcellular products, surface coatings,
elastomers, fibers, adhesives, and sealants. Nonurethane
polyehter polyols are used as surfactants, lubricants,
degreasing agents, hydraulic fluids, cosmetics, and
pharmaceuticals.
In the production of these polyols, HAPs are used
primarily as reactants or extraction solvents. The HAP
emitted by the facilities covered by this proposed rule
include ethylene oxide (EO), propylene oxide (PO),
hexane, toluene, and incidental emissions of several other
HAPs. Some of these pollutants could be considered
human carcinogens when inhaled and all can cause toxic
effects following exposure. The proposed rule is esti-
mated to reduce emissions of these pollutants by 1,810
Mg/yr. Because all of these pollutants are also volatile
organic compounds, which are precursors to ambient
ozone, the proposed rule would aid in the reduction of
tropospheric ozone. Section 9.1 of the Environmental
Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/9.1 (1996)) provides
that National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants are applicable and enforceable under the Act
without further rulemaking action by the Board.
Comments regarding this proposal can be directed to
USEPA, 401 M Street, Washington, DC 20460.

tandards of Performance for New Stationary
Sources and Emission Guidelines for Existing
Sources: Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste
Incinerators
On September 15, 1997, the United States Environ-
mental Protection Agency promulgated New Source
Performance Standards (NSPS) and emission guidelines
(guidelines) to reduce air emissions from hospi-
tal/medical/infectious waste incinerators (HMIWI) by
adding Subpart Ec, standards of performance for new
HMIWIs, and Subpart Ce, emission guidelines for
existing HMIWIs, to 40 CFR 60. 62 Fed. Reg. 48348
(September 15, 1997).
S
E
N
S
ENVIRONMENTAL REGISTER No. 520 October 1997
8
The NSPS and guidelines implement Sections 111
and 129 of the Clean Air Act. 42 U.S.C.
?
7401 (1990).
The NSPS and guidelines apply to units whose primary
purpose is the combustion of hospital/medical/infectious
waste. Sources are required to achieve emission levels
reflecting the maximum degree of reduction in emissions
of air pollutants that the administrator has determined
achievable, taking into consideration the cost of achieving
such emission reduction, any nonair-quality health and
environmental impacts, and energy requirements. The
promulgated NSPS and guidelines establish emission
limits for particulate matter, opacity, sulfur dioxide,
hydrogen chloride, oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide,
lead, cadmium, mercury, dioxins and dibenzofurans, and
fugitive ash emissions. Some of the pollutants being
regulated are considered to be carcinogens and at
sufficient concentrations can cause toxic effects following
exposure.
The NSPS and guidelines also establish requirements
for HMIWI operator training/qualifications, waste
management plans, and test/monitoring of pollutants and
operating parameters. Additionally, the guidelines for
existing HMIWIs contain equipment inspection require-
ments and the standards for new HMIWIs include siting
requirements. The standards for new sources are effective
March 16, 1998, and the emission guidelines for existing
sources are effective November 14, 1997. Section 9.1(a)
of the Environmental Protection Act (415 ILCS 5/9.1(a)
(1996)) (Act) provides that NSPS and National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants are applicable and
enforceable under the Act without further rulemaking
action by the Board.

nited States Environmental Protection Agency
Establishes Test Methods for the Analysis of
Pollutants
On September 15, 1997, the United States Environ-
mental Protection Agency (USEPA) amended the
guidelines establishing procedures for the analysis of
pollutants under Section 304(h) of the Clean Water Act
(33 U.S.C.
?
1251 (1996)), to approve USEPA Method
1613 for determination of tetra-through octa-chlorinated,
2,3,7,8-substituted, dibenzo-p-dioxins (CDDs) and
dibenzofurans (CDFs) by high resolution gas chromatog-
raphy coupled with high resolution mass spectrometry. 62
Fed. Reg. 48393 (September 15, 1997). These regula-
tions, codified at 40 CFR 136, create an additional, more
sensitive test procedure for CDDs/CDFs.
USEPA Method 1613 is an analytical test procedure
approved under the Clean Water Act for the analysis of
CDDs/CDFs that measures into the low part-per-
quadrillion range. Use of approved test procedures is
required whenever the discharge constituent specified is
measured for: a National Pollution Discharge Elimination
System permit application; discharge monitoring reports;
state certification; and in response to requests from the
permitting authority for quantitative or qualitative effluent
data. Use of approved test procedures also is required for
the expression of pollutant amounts, characteristics, or
properties in effluent limitation guidelines and standards
of performance and pretreatment standards, unless
otherwise specifically noted or defined. Regulated public
entities include government laboratories that develop or
employ analytical methods for use in demonstrating
compliance with the Clean Water Act. Regulated private
entities include commercial laboratories, consensus
methods organizations, instrument manufacturers,
vendors, and other entities that develop or employ
analytical methods for use in demonstrating compliance
with the Clean Water Act. This regulation became
effective October 15, 1997.

roposed National Emissions Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants for New and Existing
Hydrochloric Acid Steel Pickling Facilities
On September 18, 1997, the United States Environ-
mental Protection Agency (USEPA) proposed national
emission standards for hazardous air pollutants
(NESHAP) for new and existing hydrochloric acid (HCl)
process steel pickling lines and HCl regeneration plants
pursuant to Section 112 of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C.
?
7401 (1990)). Steel pickling lines that employ the HCl
process and associated HCl acid regeneration plants have
been identified by the USEPA as potentially significant
emitters of HCl, a chemical identified in the Clean Air Act
as a hazardous air pollutant (HAP). Chronic exposure to
HCl has been reported to cause gastritis, chronic bronchi-
tis, dermatitis, and photosensitization. Acute inhalation
exposure may cause coughing, hoarseness, inflammation
and ulceration of the respiratory tract, chest pain, and
pulmonary edema.
This rulemaking will affect steel pickling lines that
use HCl as the primary acid, acid regeneration plants, and
acid storage tanks. The purpose of the proposed rule is to
reduce emissions of HCl by about 8,360 megagrams per
year. The NESHAP provides protection to the public by
requiring that all HCl pickling lines, acid regeneration
plants, and acid storage tanks to meet emission standards
that reflect the application of maximum achievable control
technology. Section 9.1(a) of the Environmental Protec-
tion Act (415 ILCS 5/9.1(a) (1996)) (Act) provides that
NESHAPs and New Source Performance Standards are
applicable and enforceable under the Act without further
rulemaking action by the Board.
Comments on the proposed rule must be received by
USEPA, 401 M Street, SW, Washington, DC 20460, by
November 17, 1997.

roposed Rulemaking for the Control of Emissions
of Air Pollutants from Nonroad Diesel Engines
U
P
P
October 1997 ENVIRONMENTAL REGISTER No. 520
9
On September 24, 1997, the United States Environ-
mental Protection Agency (USEPA) proposed new
emission standards for nonroad diesel engines. 62 Fed.
Reg. 50151 (September 24, 1997). The affected engines
are used in most land-based nonroad equipment and some
marine applications. If these standards are implemented
as proposed, USEPA anticipates that the resulting
emission reductions would translate into significant, long-
term improvements in air quality in many areas of the
United States. For engines in this large category of
pollution sources, the standards for oxides of nitrogen and
particulate matter emissions would be reduced by up to
two-thirds from current standards. Overall, the proposed
program would provide much needed assistance to states
facing ozone and particulate air quality problems that are
causing a range of adverse health effects for their citizens,
especially in terms of respiratory impairment and related
illnesses. USEPA requests that comments on this
proposed rulemaking be sent to USEPA, Waterside Mall,
Room M-1500, 401 M Street, SW, Washington, DC
20460, by November 24, 1997.
?
nited States Environmental Protection Agency
Establishment of the Children’s Health Protection
Advisory Committee
On September 9, 1997, as required by Section 9(a)(2)
of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 U.S.C.
?
9(a)(2) (1996)), the United States Environmental Protec-
tion Agency (USEPA) established the Children’s Health
Protection Advisory Committee (committee). 62 Fed.
Reg. 47494 (September 9, 1997). The purpose of this
balanced, broad-based committee is to advise the USEPA
on children’s environmental health issues as it develops
regulations, guidance, and policies; communicate with the
public; and conduct research.
The creation of this committee is premised on the
understanding that children face significant and unique
health threats from a range of environmental hazards.
They are more heavily exposed and more vulnerable than
adults to toxins in the environment, from asthma-
exacerbating air pollution and lead-based paint in older
homes, to treatment-resistant microbes in drinking water,
and to persistent chemicals that may cause cancer, induce
developmental changes, or affect an individual’s ability to
reproduce as a healthy adult. Further, childrens’ devel-
oping immune and nervous systems can be highly
vulnerable to disruption by toxins in the environment and
the consequences can be lifelong.
USEPA anticipates that the committee will include
representatives of public health and health practitioner
communities, academia, state and local governments,
other federal agencies, environmental and public interest
groups, industry, and the general public.
?
evisions to Acid Rain Sulfur Dioxide Opt-In
Program
On September 25, 1997, the United States Environ-
mental Protection Agency (USEPA) proposed revisions to
the Acid Rain Sulfur Dioxide Opt-In Program. 62 Fed.
Reg. 50455 (September 25, 1997). Title IV of the Clean
Air Act, as amended, authorizes the USEPA to establish
the Acid Rain Program. 42 U.S.C.
?
7401 (1990). The
purpose of the Acid Rain Program is to significantly
reduce emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides
from electric generating plants in order to reduce the
adverse health and ecological impacts of acidic deposition
(or acid rain) resulting from such emissions. This
proposal is intended to promote participation in the opt-in
program by clarifying existing regulations, allowing a
limited exception to the general rule of one designated
representative for all affected units at a source, revising
the conditions under which the USEPA may cancel
current year allowance allocations, and allowing thermal
energy plans to be effective on a quarterly basis.
Comments on this proposed action must be received
on or before October 27, 1997. All comments must be
identified as Docket No. A-97-23 and must be submitted
to USEPA, Air Docket Section, Waterside Mall, Room
M1500, 1st floor, 401 M Street, SW, Washington, DC
20460.

RESTRICTED STATUS LIST
In order to comply with 35 Illinois Administrative Code Section 306.401, Illinois Pollution Control Board Regulations, the Illinois EPA has prepared the
following list of facilities which are on Restricted Status. Restricted Status is defined as the Agency determination that a sewer or lift station has reached
hydraulic capacity or that a sewage treatment plant has reached design capacity, such that additional sewer connection permits may no longer be issued
without causing a violation of the Act or Regulations. Please note that the list is continually being revised to reflect the current situation. Therefore, if you
have any questions on the capability of a treatment facility or transport system, please contact this Agency for a final determination. This listing reflects the
status as of September 30, 1997.
Facility names followed by an asterisk (*) indicates that construction is underway to ultimately alleviate problems which resulted in imposition of Restricted
Status. Facilities followed by a double asterisk (**) are additions to the list.

CRITICAL REVIEW LIST
In order to comply with 35 Illinois Administrative Code Section 306.401, Illinois Pollution Control Board Regulations, the Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency has prepared the following list of facilities which are on Critical Review. Critical Review is defined as the Agency determination that a
sewer or lift station is approaching hydraulic capacity or that a sewage treatment plant is approaching design capacity such that additional sewer connection
permit applications will require close scrutiny to determine whether issuance would result in a violation of the Act or Regulations. Please note that these
lists are continually being revised to reflect the current situation. Therefore, if you have any questions on the capability of a treatment facility or transport
system, please contact the Agency for a final determination. This listing reflects the status as of September 30, 1997.

Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
Division of Public Water Supplies
Restricted Status List -- Public Water Supplies
The Restricted Status List was developed to give additional notification to officials of public water supplies which are in violation of 35 Ill. Adm. Code,
Subtitle F: Public Water Supplies, Chapter I or the Illinois Environmental Protection Act.
The Restricted Status List will include all Public Water Supplies for which the Agency has information indicating a violation of any of the following
requirements: Finished water quality requirements of 35 Ill. Adm. Code, Part 604, Subparts B and C; maintenance of adequate pressure on all parts of the
distribution system under all conditions of demand; meeting raw water quantity requirements of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 604.502; or maintenance of treatment
facilities capable of providing water "assuredly adequate in quantity" as required by Section 18 of the Illinois Environmental Protection Act.
A public water supply on the Restricted Status List will not be issued permits for water main extensions, except for certain limited situations, or unless the
supply has been granted a variance from the Illinois Pollution Control Board for the violation, or from permit issuance requirements of Section 39 of the
Act.
This list is continually being revised as new information becomes available, and therefore, specific inquiries as to the status of any public water supply
should be directed to the Division of Public Water Supplies for final determination. This list reflects the status as of October 1, 1997.
* Indicates public water supplies which have been added to the list since the previous publication.

Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
Division of Public Water Supplies
Critical Review List -- Public Water Supplies
The Critical Review List was developed to give additional notification to officials of public water supplies which may be close to being in violation of 35
Ill. Adm. Code, Subtitle F: Public Water Supplies, Chapter I or the Illinois Environmental Protection Act.
A supply will be placed on the Critical Review List when Agency records indicate that it is approaching any of the violations which would place it on the
Restricted Status List.
This list is continually being revised as new information becomes available, and therefore, specific inquiries as to the status of any public water supply
should be directed to the Division of Public Water Supplies for final determination. This list reflects the status as of October 1, 1997.
* Indicates public water supplies which have been added to the list since the previous publication.
