    Proposed Rule. Proposal for Public Comment.
     
    OPINION OF THE BOARD (by R.C. Flemal):
     
    Under Sections 7.2 and 17.5 of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/7.2
    and 17.5 (2000)), the Board today proposes amendments to the Illinois regulations that are
    “identical in substance” to drinking water regulations that the United States Environmental
    Protection Agency (USEPA) adopted to implement Sections 1412(b), 1414(c), 1417(a), and
    1445(a) of the federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) (42 U.S.C. §§ 300g-1(a), 300g-3(c),
    300g-6(a), and 300j-4(a) (1994)). The nominal timeframe of this docket includes federal SDWA
    amendments that USEPA adopted in the period January 1, 2001 through June 30, 2001.
     
    Sections 7.2 and 17.5 provide for quick adoption of regulations that are identical in
    substance to federal regulations that USEPA adopts to implement Sections 1412(b), 1414(c),
    1417(a), and 1445(a) of the federal SDWA. Section 17.5 also provides that Title VII of the Act
    and Section 5 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 ILCS 100/5-35 and 5-40 (2000)) do
    not apply to the Board’s adoption of identical-in-substance regulations. The federal SDWA
    regulations are found at 40 C.F.R. 141 through 143.
     
    This opinion supports an order that the Board also adopts today. The Board will cause
    the proposed amendments to be published in the
    Illinois Register
    and will hold the docket open
    to receive public comments for 45 days after the date of publication.
     
    FEDERAL ACTIONS CONSIDERED IN THIS RULEMAKING
     
    The following briefly summarizes the federal actions considered in this rulemaking.
     
    Docket R02-1: January 1, 2001 through June 30, 2001 SDWA Amendments
     
    USEPA amended the federal SDWA regulations on only one occasion during the period
    January 1, 2001 through June 30, 2001. This is summarized below:
     
    66 Fed. Reg. 2273 (January 11, 2001)
    USEPA approved analytical methods for 13 List 2 unregulated contaminants that
    suppliers must monitor. List 2 contaminants are those for which analytical methods are
    under refinement. USEPA also modified the requirements for implementation of
    monitoring for List 1 and List 2 contaminants.

     
    2
     
    66 Fed. Reg. 3466 (January 16, 2001)
    By a direct final rule, USEPA approved the use of updated test procedures for
    determination of various contaminants in water and wastewater.
     
    66 Fed. Reg. 3770 (January 16, 2001)
    USEPA adopted minor amendments to the December 16, 1998 interim enhanced surface
    water rule (63 Fed. Reg. 69478) and the Stage 1 disinfectants and disinfection byproducts
    rule (63 Fed. Reg. 69390). USEPA had earlier adopted these amendments by a direct
    final rule on April 14, 2000 (65 Fed. Reg. 20304), but later withdrew those amendments
    as a result of adverse public comment on June 13, 2000 (65 Fed. Reg. 37052). USEPA
    again adopted the amendments with minor revisions after receiving additional public
    comments.
     
    66 Fed. Reg. 6976 (January 22, 2001)
    USEPA adopted National Primary Drinking Water Regulations for arsenic in drinking
    water. The standards included monitoring and reporting requirements for demonstrating
    compliance. The rules are applicable to non-transient non-community water systems and
    community water systems.
     
    66 Fed. Reg. 9903 (February 12, 2001)
    USEPA corrected its action of January 16, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 3770) pertaining to interim
    enhanced surface water rule and the Stage 1 disinfectants and disinfection byproducts
    rule.
     
    66 Fed. Reg. 16134 (March 23, 2001)
    USEPA delayed the effective date of the January 22, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 6976) arsenic
    rule for 60 days, until May 22, 2001.
     
    66 Fed. Reg. 26795 (May 15, 2001)
    USEPA withdrew its January 16, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 3466) direct final rule that approved
    the use of updated test procedures for determination of various contaminants in water and
    wastewater.
     
    66 Fed. Reg. 27215 (May 16, 2001)
    USEPA corrected its January 11, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 2273) approval of analytical
    methods for 13 List 2 unregulated contaminants that suppliers must monitor.
     
    66 Fed. Reg. 28342 (May 22, 2001)
    USEPA again delayed the effective date of the January 22, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 6976)
    arsenic rule to February 22, 2002. The January 22, 2004 effective date for compliance
    and new-source monitoring aspects of the rule remained unchanged.
     
    66 Fed. Reg. 31086 (June 8, 2001)
    USEPA adopted the filter backwash recycling rule. The rule regulates the return of
    recycled flows to the filtration process, which could potentially threaten the

     
    3
    microbiologic integrity of the treatment process.
     
    No Board Action on Certain Federal Actions
     
    Some of the federal actions that occurred during the period of January 1, 2001 through
    June 30, 2001 will require no action on the part of the Board to amend the Illinois drinking water
    regulations. The Board summarizes those federal actions here:
     
    1. No action will be necessary on the federal January 11, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 2273)
    unregulated contaminants rules and the May 16, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 27215) approval of
    new methods for unregulated contaminants. As stated in SDWA Update, USEPA
    Regulations (July 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999) (August 24, 2000), R00-10,
    USEPA and the Agency have both commented that the unregulated contaminant
    monitoring provisions are not segments of the federal SDWA rules that the Board is
    required to adopt and maintain.
     
    2. On May 15, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 26795), USEPA withdrew its direct final rule of January
    16, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 3466) in which it approved updated test procedures for water
    contaminants. This withdrawal obviates Board action on the January 16, 2001
    amendments (as well as the May 15, 2001 withdrawal of those amendments).
     
    No Later SDWA (Drinking Water) Amendments of Interest
     
    The Board engages in ongoing monitoring of federal actions. As of the date of this
    opinion and accompanying order, we have not identified any USEPA actions since June 30, 2001
    that further amend the SDWA rules. When the Board observes an action outside the nominal
    timeframe of a docket that would require expedited consideration in the pending docket, the
    Board will expedite consideration of those amendments. Federal actions that could warrant
    expedited consideration include those that directly affect the amendments involved in this
    docket, those for which compelling reasons would warrant consideration as soon as possible and
    those for which the Board has received a request for expedited consideration. If the Board
    identifies any federal actions that fulfill these criteria prior to final action on the present
    amendments, it may include those amendments in the present update docket R02-5.

    arsenic rule to February 22, 2002. (The January 22, 2004 effective
    date for compliance and new-source monitoring aspects of the rule
    remained unchanged.)
    June 8, 2001
    (66 Fed. Reg. 31086)

    PUBLIC COMMENTS
     
    The Board will receive public comments on this proposal for 45 days following its
    publication in the
    Illinois Register
    . After that time, the Board will immediately consider
    adoption of the amendments, making any necessary changes made evident through the public
    comments. The Board will file any adopted rules with the Secretary of State immediately after
    adoption.
     
    DISCUSSION
     
    The following discussion begins with a description of the types of deviations the Board
    makes from the literal text of federal regulations in adopting identical-in-substance rules. It is
    followed by a discussion of the amendments and actions undertaken in direct response to the
    federal actions involved in this proceeding. This first series of discussions is organized by
    federal subject matter, generally appearing in chronological order of the relevant
    Federal
    Register
    notices involved. Finally, this discussion closes with a description of the amendments
    and actions that are not directly derived from the federal actions.
     
    General Revisions and Deviations from the Federal Text
     
    In incorporating the federal rules into the Illinois system, some deviation from the federal
    text is unavoidable. This deviation arises primarily through differences between the federal and
    state regulatory structure and systems. Some deviation also arises through errors in and
    problems with the federal text itself. The Board conforms the federal text to the Illinois rules
    and regulatory scheme and corrects errors that we see in the text as we engage in these routine
    update rulemakings.
     
    In addition to the amendments derived from federal amendments, the Board often finds it
    necessary to alter the text of various passages of the existing rules as provisions are opened for
    update in response to USEPA actions. This involves correcting deficiencies, clarifying
    provisions, and making other changes that are necessary to establish a clear set of rules that
    closely parallel the corresponding federal requirements within the codification scheme of the
    Illinois Administrative Code.
     
    The Board updates the citations to the
    Code of Federal Regulations
    to the most recent
    version available. As of the date of this opinion, the most recent version of the
    Code of Federal
    Regulations
    available to the Board is the July 1, 2000 version. Thus, we have updated all

     
    5
    citations to the 2000 version, adding references to later amendments using their appropriate
    Federal Register
    citation, where necessary.
     
    The Board substituted “or” for “/” in most instances where this appeared in the federal
    base text, using “and” where more appropriate. The Board further used this opportunity to make
    a number of corrections to punctuation, grammar, spelling, and cross-reference format
    throughout the opened text. We changed “who” to “that” and “he” or “she” to “it,” where the
    person to which the regulation referred was not necessarily a natural person, or to “he or she,”
    where a natural person was evident; changed “which” to “that” for restrictive relative clauses;
    substituted “must” for “shall”; capitalized the section headings and corrected their format where
    necessary; and corrected punctuation within sentences.
     
    In addition, the federal rules have been edited to establish a uniform usage throughout the
    Board’s regulations. For example, with respect to “shall,” “will,” and “may,” “must” is used
    when an action is required by the rule, without regard to whether the action is required of the
    subject of the sentence or not. “Shall” is no longer, since it is not used in everyday language.
    Thus, where a federal rule uses “shall,” the Board substitutes “must.” This is a break from our
    former practice where “shall” was used when the subject of a sentence has a duty to do
    something. “Will” is used when the Board obliges itself to do something. “May” is used when
    choice of a provision is optional. “Or” is used rather than “and/or,” and denotes “one or both.”
    “Either . . . or” denotes “one but not both.” “And” denotes “both.”
     
    The Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR) has requested that the Board refer
    to the United States Environmental Protection Agency in the same manner throughout all of our
    bodies of regulations—
    i.e.
    , air, water, drinking water, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
    (RCRA) Subtitle D (municipal solid waste landfill), RCRA Subtitle C (hazardous waste),
    underground injection control (UIC), etc. The Board has decided to refer to the United States
    Environmental Protection Agency as “USEPA.” We will continue this conversion in future
    rulemakings, as additional sections become open to amendment. We will further convert “EPA”
    used in federal text to “USEPA,” where USEPA is clearly intended.
     
    The Board has assembled tables to aid in the location of these alterations and to briefly
    outline their intended purpose. The tables set forth the miscellaneous deviations from the federal
    text and corrections to the pre-amended base text of the rules in detail. The tables are set forth
    and explained beginning at page 13 of this opinion. There is no further discussion of most of the
    deviations and revisions elsewhere in this opinion.
     
    Discussion of the Federal Actions
     
    Amendments to the Interim Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule and the Stage 1
    Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule—Subparts I and R and Sections 611.232,
    611.250, 611.310, 611.312, 611.313, and 611.680
     
    On January 16, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 3770), USEPA adopted adopted minor amendments
    to the December 16, 1998 interim enhanced surface water rule (63 Fed. Reg. 69478) and the
    Stage 1 disinfectants and disinfection byproducts rule (63 Fed. Reg. 69390). On February 12,

     
    6
    2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 9903), USEPA corrected the January 16, 2001 amendments. USEPA had
    earlier adopted these amendments by a direct final rule on April 14, 2000 (65 Fed. Reg. 20304),
    but later withdrew those amendments as a result of adverse public comment on June 13, 2000
    (65 Fed. Reg. 37052). USEPA ultimately again adopted the amendments on January 16, 2001
    after receiving additional public comments.
     
    The Board incorporated the federal amendments into the Illinois drinking water
    regulations in SDWA Update, USEPA Regulations (July 1, 1998 through December 31, 1998)
    (July 22, 1999), R99-12, based on an advanced copy of the amendments obtained from the
    USEPA. At that time the Board chose to proceed without delay to adopt the amendments
    because they altered the effective dates of the rules that they affected. The amendments
    ultimately adopted by USEPA on January 16, 2001 have only minimally changed the text of the
    federal amendments as submitted to the Board in a draft form in 1999. In this present action the
    Board effects those minimal changes to complete the federal amendments.
     
    The Board has completed the January 16, 2001 federal amendments with only minimal
    deviation from the text of the federal amendments. Persons interested in a detailed explanation
    of the substance of the underlying federal action should refer to the notice that appeared in the
    January 16, 2001 issue of the
    Federal Register
    . Table 1, which begins on page 13 of this
    opinion, outlines the deviations from the literal text of the federal rules that the Board found
    necessary to incorporate the amendments. The Board will offer no explanation of most of those
    deviations beyond that set forth in the table, since none of the deviations are significant enough
    to warrant specific discussion.
     
    The Board requests public comment on our incorporation of the January 16, 2001 federal
    amendments to the interim enhanced surface water rule and the Stage 1 disinfectants and
    disinfection byproducts rule into the Illinois drinking water regulations.
     
    National Primary Drinking Water Regulation for Arsenic—Subpart N and 611.101,
    611.130, 611.300, 611.301, 611.646, 611.648, 611.884, 611.Appendix A, and Appendix G
     
    On January 22, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 6976), USEPA adopted National Primary Drinking
    Water Regulations (NPDWRs) applicable to arsenic in drinking water. The arsenic rule will
    lower the MCL for arsenic from the current 0.05 mg/L to 0.01 mg/L, and it will revise the
    analytical methods used to determine compliance, amend the monitoring requirements, and
    change the public notification requirements that apply to arsenic. USEPA further adopted
    amendments to the new source compliance demonstration requirements applicable to all
    inorganic contaminants (IOCs), volatile organic contaminants (VOCs), and synthetic organic
    contaminants (SOCs). As initially adopted by USEPA, the federal arsenic rule contained a
    number of different effective dates and compliance dates. The effective date for these
    amendments was March 23, 2001, except that the monitoring and compliance requirements of
    the rule were to be effective January 22, 2004, and the compliance deadline for the arsenic MCL
    was January 23, 2006.
     
    On March 23, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 16134), USEPA delayed the effective date of various
    aspects of the arsenic NPDWRs until May 22, 2001. On May 22, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 28342),

     
    7
    USEPA again delayed various of the effective dates until February 22, 2002. Unaffected by
    these actions were the effective dates of the January 22, 2001 amendments pertaining to IOCs
    generally and to VOCs and SOCs. The effect of the March 23, 2001 and May 22, 2001
    amendments was to shift the dates when the arsenic rule takes effect. The first action changed
    the effective date of the arsenic rule from March 23, 2001 to May 22, 2001. The second action
    shifted the effective date to February 22, 2002. USEPA stated in changing these dates, it was
    delaying the effective dates of the amendments “to reassess the scientific and cost issues
    associated with the arsenic rule . . ..” (66 Fed. Reg. 28342 (May 22, 2001).) USEPA stated that
    the delayed effective dates did not affect the ultimate deadline for compliance with the new MCL
    for arsenic.
     
    The following tables illustrate the initial and amended effective dates for the various
    aspects of the arsenic rule and the concurrent amendments:
     
    Initial Effective Date (as published on January 22, 2001): March 23, 2001

    The common understanding at USEPA, the Agency, and elsewhere appears to be that the
    federal arsenic NPDWR is being held in abeyance, at least until February 22, 2002, the date until
    which USEPA ultimately delayed the effectiveness of the amendments while it revisits the
    associated technical issues involved. But, the Board must take action now to adopt these rules as
    Illinois law. Under the Act, it is the date of the
    Federal Register
    notice that adopts amendments
    that dictates the deadline for Board action. USEPA adopted the arsenic rule on January 22,
    2001, and it has not withdrawn or otherwise nullified the rule, even if USEPA did delay the
    effective date to revisit the issues. Sections 7.2 and 22.4(a) of the Act (415 ILCS 5/7.2 and
    22.4(a) (2000)) mandate that the Board adopt the arsenic rule as it stands by January 16, 2002.
    1
      
    This requires the Board to proceed to propose these amendments without regard to the fact that
    1
    January 16, 2002 is one year from the date of the earliest federal amendments involved in the
    six-month update period involved in this docket.

    USEPA is unsettled on the issues involved and may well act by February 22, 2002 to replace the
    current arsenic rule with one that is radically different.
     
    If USEPA adopts another extension of the effective date or a different rule before the
    Board has filed amendments based on this proposal, the Board will act to incorporate the federal
    changes into these amendments before they become final and effective. If, on the other hand, as
    now appears more likely, USEPA proceeds to amend the arsenic rule after the Board has fulfilled
    our mandate and adopted final amendments based on this proposal, the Board will timely amend
    the arsenic rule in a future rulemaking. The Board will act as promptly as practical to assure that
    the Illinois drinking water regulations remain consistent with the federal rules.
     
    The Board has incorporated the federal arsenic rule amendments into the Illinois drinking
    water regulations with minimal deviation from the literal text of the federal amendments.
    Persons interested in the substance of the underlying federal action should refer to the notice that
    appeared in the January 22, 2001, March 23, 2001, and May 22, 2001 issues of the
    Federal
    Register
    . Table 1, which begins on page 13 of this opinion, outlines the deviations from the
    literal text of the federal rules that the Board found necessary to incorporate the amendments.
    The Board will offer no explanation of most of those deviations beyond that set forth in the table.
    We do, however, explain the more significant deviations in this discussion.
     
    One set of deviations from the federal text that the Board has found necessary relates to
    the various federal effective dates involved. We have found it necessary to preface several
    provisions with their federal effective dates. As explained in SDWA Update, USEPA
    Regulations (July 1, 2000 through December 31, 2000), R01-20 (October 4, 2001), under federal
    law, USEPA can codify two versions of a single provision, with one effective up to a certain date
    and another effective after that date. The Board must codify those versions as separate
    provisions, and we can then later amend the regulations to remove the expired provision. The
    Board will codify the new provision under the existing subsection designation as effective on
    some future date, then renumber the existing provision under a new subsection designation as
    effective until that future date. Thus, the Board has prefaced Sections 611.601(d)(2), 611.603
    preamble, 611.606(a), 611.609(a) and (b), as effective on February 22, 2002; Sections
    611.611(b), (c), (o), and (o)(1) through (o)(6), and 611.648(k) and (k)(1) through (k)(5) as
    effective January 22, 2004 and Sections 611.646(o)(6) and (o)(7) and 611.648(k)(6) and (k)(7) as
    effective until January 22, 2004, the old MCL listed at Section 611.Appendix A (“arsenic”) as
    effective until January 23, 2006 and the new MCL as effective on January 23, 2006, and Section
    611.300(b) as effective until January 23, 2006,.
     
    The Board makes a specific observation on one aspect of the effect of the federal arsenic
    rule on the Illinois regulations. Most segments of Section 611.300, as it exists today, are derived
    from the Illinois regulations adopted under Section 27 of the Act (415 ILCS 5/27 (2000)) that
    predate the federally derived SDWA regulations adopted as identical-in-substance rules under
    Sections 7.2 and 17.5 of the Act (415 ILCS 5/7.2 and 17.5 (2000)) and currently codified as 35
    Ill. Adm. Code 611 today.
    See
    Safe Drinking Water Act Regulations, R88-26 (August 9, 1990)
    at pp. 73-74; 35 Ill. Adm. Code 604.202 (1988). Over time, the federally-derived MCLs have
    been removed from this Section, leaving only the state-only inorganic MCLs but those for iron,

     
    10
    manganese, and zinc.
    2
    The January 23, 2006 expiration of the old arsenic MCL will remove that
    last federally derived rule from Section 611.300. After that date, the remaining provisions in this
    Section will be exclusively state-derived rules.
     
    The Board requests public comment on our incorporation of the January 16, 2001 federal
    amendments to the radiologic contaminant rules into the Illinois drinking water regulations.
     
    Filter Backwash Rule—Sections 611.276 and 611.Appendices A and G
     
    On June 8, 2001 (66 Fed. Reg. 31086), USEPA adopted the filter backwash recycling
    rule (FBRR). USEPA stated that the purpose of the FBRR is to protect public health by
    requiring suppliers to change their practice of return of filter backwash water to the treatment
    process; the purpose of the change is to avoid any compromise of microbial control. The FBRR
    addresses filter backwash water, sludge thickener supernatant water, and waters from dewatering
    processes. The FBRR added new 40 C.F.R. 141.76 to the regulations, which requires suppliers
    to submit a detailed written notification to the State by December 8, 2003 if it recycles spent
    filter backwash water, thickener supernatant, or dewatering process liquids. Suppliers are
    prohibited, effective June 8, 2004, against returning these flows to the treatment process except
    through the existing filtration system or to an alternative location approved by the State. The
    new rule requires that a supplier must complete all capital improvements necessary to comply
    with the rule’s requirements before June 8, 2006. Also effective June 8, 2004, the suppliers are
    required to maintain records containing specified information for State inspection.
     
    The Board has incorporated the federal amendments into the Illinois drinking water
    regulations as 35 Ill. Adm. Code 611.276 with minimal deviation from the literal text of
    corresponding 40 C.F.R. 141.76. Persons interested in the substance of the underlying federal
    action should refer to the notice that appeared in the June 8, 2001 issue of the
    Federal Register
    .
    Table 1, which begins on page 13 of this opinion, outlines the deviations from the literal text of
    the federal rules that the Board found necessary to incorporate the amendments. The Board will
    offer no explanation of those deviations beyond that set forth in the table. We do, however,
    consider in this discussion specific significant issues raised by subsection (c) of the new Section.
     
    The first issue relating to subsection (c) relates to State designation of alternative
    locations to return the backwash flows. The information required of the supplier for submission
    to the State is detailed engineering information that would help the State to gauge the
    performance and effectiveness of the supplier’s filtration process. No segment of the rule,
    however, sets forth an objective standard for performance or otherwise sets forth a basis for a
    State determination of an alternative location for introducing the flows. For this reason, and
    since the only basis for an Agency determination under the Act is by a permit issued pursuant to
    Section 39 of the Act (415 ILCS 5/39 (2000)), the Board has specified that an Agency
    determination of an alternative location for reintroducing return flows is to be made as a permit
    decision. Since standards for Agency permit issuance are set forth in Section 39 of the Act, with
    2
    National secondary MCLs exist for these contaminants, but the Board is not required to
    incorporate them into the Illinois regulations, since they are not NPDWRs. (See 415 ILCS
    5/17.5 (2000) and 40 C.F.R. 143.1 (2000).)

     
    11
    an Agency permit decision being subject to Board review under Section 40 of the Act (415 ILCS
    5/39, 40 (2000)).
     
    The second issue relating to subsection (c) of the new provision appears to require
    compliance with a plan approved by the State by June 8, 2004, but it also provides that the
    supplier must comply by no later than June 8, 2006 if capital improvements are necessary to
    achieve compliance. The question arises as to what must occur by June 8, 2004: must the State
    approve the point for reintroduction of the return flows, or must the supplier comply by returning
    those flows only to that point by that date? The Board reads this provision as requiring
    compliance by reintroducing the return flows only at an Agency-approved point in the process
    by that date. The second question that arises is whether the need for capital improvements to
    achieve compliance automatically extends the date for compliance until June 8, 2006, or if the
    mention of the extended compliance date is an indication that the State can extend the date in a
    specific case where proof has been made that capital improvements are required. The Board
    notes that section 1412(b)(10) of the federal SDWA (42 U.S.C. § 300g-1(b)(10) (1994)) allows
    the State to extend the deadline for compliance for up to two years where it determines that such
    an extension is necessary because the supplier needs to undertake capital improvements to
    achieve compliance. We read the extension provision of 40 C.F.R. 141.76(c) as referring to a
    two-year extension as allowed under section 1412(b) of SDWA, and not as automatically
    allowing such an extension. Thus, in order to obtain an extension of the compliance deadline,
    the supplier must file an appropriate petition under Section 28.1 or 37 of the Act (415 ILCS
    5/28.1 or 37 (2000)) before the Board for relief from the June 8, 2004 date.
     
    The Board requests public comment on our incorporation of the January 16, 2001 federal
    amendments to the filter backwash rule into the Illinois drinking water regulations. In particular,
    we request specific comment on our interpretations concerning standards for State determination
    of the appropriate alternative location for reintroduction of return flows to the treatment process
    and to the availability of a two-year extension of the compliance deadline where capital
    improvements are necessary to achieve compliance.
     
    Agency or Board Action
     
    Section 7.2(a)(5) of the Act requires the Board to specify portions of the program USEPA
    over which will retain decision making authority. Based on the general division of functions
    within the Act and other Illinois statutes, the Board is also to specify which State agency is to
    make decisions.
     
    In situations in which the Board has determined that USEPA will retain decision-making
    authority, the Board has replaced “Regional Administrator” with USEPA, so as to avoid
    specifying which office within USEPA is to make a decision.
     
    In some identical-in-substance rules, certain decisions pertaining to a permit application
    are not appropriate for the Agency to consider. In determining the general division of authority
    between the Agency and the Board, the following factors should be considered:
     

     
    12
    1. Whether the person making the decision is applying a Board regulation, or taking
    action contrary to (“waiving”) a Board regulation. It generally takes some form
    of Board action to “waive” a Board regulation.
     
    2. Whether there is a clear standard for action such that the Board can give
    meaningful review to an Agency decision.
     
    3. Whether the action would result in exemption from the permit requirement itself.
    If so, Board action is generally required.
     
    4. Whether the decision amounts to “determining, defining or implementing
    environmental control standards” within the meaning of Section 5(b) of the Act.
    If so, it must be made by the Board.
     
    There are four common classes of Board decisions: variance, adjusted standard, site-
    specific rulemaking, and enforcement. The first three are methods by which a regulation can be
    temporarily postponed (variance) or adjusted to meet specific situations (adjusted standard or
    site-specific rulemaking). There often are differences in the nomenclature for these decisions
    between the USEPA and Board regulations.
     
    Discussion of Miscellaneous Housekeeping Amendments
     
    The tables below list numerous corrections and amendments that are not based on current
    federal amendments. The first table (beginning immediately below) includes deviations made in
    this Proposal for Public Comment from the verbatim text of the federal amendments. The
    second table (beginning below at page 19) contains corrections and clarifications that the Board
    made in the base text involved in this proposal. The amendments listed in this second table are
    not directly derived from the current federal amendments. Some of the entries in these tables are
    discussed further in appropriate segments of the general discussion beginning at page 4 of this
    opinion.
