    Rulemaking Update
    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    September 10, 1997) (unpublished order under Illinois Supreme Court Rule 23),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).
    All comments and questions regarding this rulemak-
    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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,

    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).

    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.

    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

    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

    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.

    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.
