Final Order.
OPINION
AND
ORDER OF THE BOARD
(by G.T. Girard):
This proceeding updates
thefl definition of volatile organic
materialat 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211.7150 to reflect the most recent
United States Environmental Protection Agency
(USEPA)
exemptions
of compounds from regulation as ozone precursors.
This
rulemaking is mandated by Section 9.1(e)
of the Environmental
Protection Act
(Act)
415
ILCS 5/9.1(e)
(1992).
That provision
requires the Board to exempt from the definition of VOM those
compounds that are determined by USEPA to be exempt from
regulation under the state implementation plan for ozone in the
federal Recommended Policy.
SecLion 9.1(e) provides that Title
VII of the Act and Section 5 of the Administrative Procedure Act
(APA)
5
ILCS 100/5—35
& 5—40
(1992)
do not apply to this
proceeding.
Because it is not subject to Section
5 of the APA,
this rulemaking is not subject to First Notice and Second Notice
review by the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules.
As is explained more fully below our action today in
adopting these amendments is based on two separate proposals
based on a single federal action.
Two separate Notices of
Proposed Amendments appeared in the Illinois Register under the
same docket number.
The Board is adopting amendments based on
the two proposals in this single action and by a single Illinois
Register Notice of Adopted Amendments because all the amendments
are interrelated,
and separate actions would only serve to delay
the environmental benefits this rulemaking will confer.
PROCEDURAL HISTORY
The Board proposed amendments to the Section 211.7150
definition of “volatile organic material”
(VOM)
by a proposal for
public comment dated July 7,
1995.
A Notice of Proposed
Amendments appeared in the Illinois RegisLer based on that
proposal on August
3,
1995,
at 19 Ill. Reg.
11297.
On July
18,
1995,
the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
(Agency)
filed
a request,
asking the Board to add supplemental amendments to
those proposed on July 7,
1995 to the definition of volatile
organic material
(VOM).
For the purposes of public comment,
the
Board granted the Agency’s request and proposed supplemental
amendments to the Sections 211.4250, 211.4260, and 211.4610
2
definitions of “organic material”,
“organic solvent”, and
“petroleum liquid”,
respectively,
exactly as suggested by the
Agency on August
3,
1995.
A Notice of Proposed Amendments
appeared in the Illinois Register based on the supplemental
proposal on August
24,
1995,
at 19
Ill. Reg. 12176.
The public
comment period expired for the notice for the supplemental
proposal after 45 days from publication,
on October
9,
1995.
The Board conducted a public hearing on both sets of
proposed amendments on September
6,
1995,
in Chicago.
The Agency
and the Illinois Environmental Regulatory Group
(IERG)
appeared
at the hearing and presented testimony.
The law firm of
Sonnenschein, Nath & Rosenthal also attended on behalf of
Riverside Laboratories.
The Board conducted the hearing,
as
required by Section 110 of the federal Clean Air Act,
42 U.S.C. §
7410, because this proceeding would entail
a SIP revision.
During the public comment period, the Board received two
written public comments:
PC
1 Illinois Environmental Regulatory Group
(IERG)
(October
2,
1995, by Whitney
Wagner Rosen)
PC 2
Illinois EPA (Agency)
(October
5,
1995, by Rachel
Doctors, Assistant Counsel, Division of Legal Counsel)
The Board has granted this proceeding expedited
consideration.
The Agency filed
a motion for expedited
consideration on June 30,
1995.
The Agency stated that it has
received numerous inquiries as to when Illinois will “delist”
acetone
(i.e.,
exempt that material from regulation as VON).
USEPA exempted acetone from the federal definition of VOM on June
16,
1995.
The Board received another motion for expedited
consideration from Riverside Laboratories on June
30,
1995.
That
motion explained that Riverside has reformulated all coatings
used at its Kane County facility to eliminate all coatings but
acetone.
Riverside drew attention to its presently-pending
petition, docketed as PCB 95-157,
for a variance from certain of
the VON regulations.
It stated that
it is also presently
assembling its
CAPS
Title V permit application to obtain a
federally-enforceable permit.
Riverside moved for expedited
consideration of the exemption of acetone from the definition of
VON,
so that it may wiLhdraw iLs peLiLion for variance and
complete its Title V permit application.
The Board granted the motions of the Agency and Riverside
for expedited consideration in our proposal for public comment of
July 7,
1995.
Further,
PC
I comments that delay would impact
Illinois industry and the environment adversely by delaying the
encouragement of acetone use in place of other compounds that are
3
ozone precursors and hazardous air pollutants.
DESCRIPTION
OF
PRESENT
ACTION
The present amendments respond to a single USEPA amendment
to the definition of VON.
On June 16,
1995,
at
60 Fed. Reg.
31633, USEPA added one compound to the list of chemical species
that are exempted from the definition of VON and, hence,
are
exempted from regulation for control of ozone precursors.
The
common name of that single compound is acetone.
Alternative
names for this compound are 2—propanone and dimethylketone.
The primary Federal Register citation to the revision in the
federal policy statement used in this opinion and order is as
follows:
60 Fed. Reg. 31633
(June 16,
1995)
adding one compound to
the list of those
exempted
The
Board
has
incorporated
Lhe
federal
aiuendmeiiLs
of
June
16,
1995
into
our
Section
211.7150
definition
of VON with only
minor
deviation
from
the
added
federal
text.
The
Board
has
parenthetically
added
the
alternative
names
for
acetone
(i.e.,
“2—propanone” and “dimethylketone”)
in the listing for this
material.
Further,
the Board has made three corrections to the
text of the definition of “volatile organic material” since our
proposal for public comment:
1.
We changed the comma to a semicolon after the entry for
“methylene chloride
(dichloromethane)”.
Many of the
individual elements in the series listing compounds
contain commas,
so the Board appropriately separated
each element
in
the series with a semicolon.
This
comma was anomalous.
2.
We changed the chemical name “l,l,1-trichloro-2,2,2-
trifluoroethane
(CFC—l13)” to “l,1,2-trichloro—l,2,2—
trifluoroethane
(CFC—1l3)”.
The way it appears in our
existing rule is how it appears in
40 CFR 51.100(s)
(1994), but USEPA corrected the name at
59 Fed. Reg.
50696
(Oct.
5,
1994).
This correction was missed in
the prior R95—2 update.
Further,
the only listings for
a LrichloroLrifluoroethane in the Condensed chemical
Dictionary and Dangerous Properties of Industrial
Materials is the “1,1,2—
.
.
.
—1,2,2—
.
.
.“
isomer.
3.
We changed the abbreviated designation for trifluoro-
methane from “FC-23” to “HFC-23”.
The way it appears
in our existing rule is how it appears
in 40 CFR
51.100(s)
(1994), but USEPA corrected the designation
4
at 59 Fed. Reg. 50696
(Oct.
5,
1994)
.
This correction
was missed in the prior R95-2 update.
Further,
this
compound is an unsaturated fluorocarbon or
hydrofluorocarbon,
for which the designation “HFC”
is
appropriate.
At the September 6 public hearing in this matter,
IERG took
the tentative position that amendment of the three definitions
other than that of VON would go beyond the scope of our authority
under Section 9.1(e)
of the Act.
(Tr. 5-10
& 13—14.)
In later-
filed PC
1, IERG stated that it agreed with the Agency’s position
after
discussion:
IERG believes that the amendments to the definitions of
organic material, organic solvent,
and petroleum liquid
are necessary to complete the exemption of acetone from
regulation under the SIP for ozone.
Accordingly,
the
Board’s adoption of such amendments via an identical-
in-substance rulemaking pursuant to the provisions of
Section 7.2 of the Act is consistent with the
provisions of Section 9.1(e).
PC 1 at
4.
The Agency took the position at hearing that the proposed
amendments to all four definitions were within the Board’s
mandate.
(Tr.
11-2.)
In PC 2,
the Agency elaborated that it had
contacted USEPA.
USEPA represented to the Agency that the
proposed amendments to the definitions of organic material,
organic solvent, and petroleum liquid are consistent with the
federal exemption of acetone.
The Agency further stated in PC 2
that the amendments to these three definitions are necessary to
effectuate USEPA’s
full intent in exempting acetone.
By way of
example,
the Agency cites that if acetone is not excluded from
the Section 211.4250(b) definition of “organic material”,
acetone
would remain subject to the storage and loading operations and
petroleum refining and related industries and asphalt materials
requirements of Subparts B and R of Parts 215, 218, and 219.
If
not excluded from the definition of petroleum liquid,
as another
example, acetone would remain subject to Sections 215.123 and
215.124 and their counterparts in Parts 218 and 219.
Upon examination of the three Sections 211.4250, 211.4260,
and 211.4610 definitions of “organic material”,
“organic
solvent”, and “petroleum liquid”, respecLively, and the Part 215,
218, and 219 regulations,
the Board agrees with the Agency that
these provisions are inter-related.
Various segments of the Part
215, 218,
and 219 regulations apply to “organic
material”,
“organic solvent”, and “petroleum liquid”,
as well as “volatile
organic material”.
This means that the Agency-requested
additional amendments are necessary to fully exempt acetone from
regulation as an ozone precursor,
as
is intended by this
5
proceeding
and
Section
9.1(e)
of
the
Act.
For these reasons,
the Board determines that the amendments
to the three definitions other than that of VOM are mandated
under Section 9.1(e)
of the Act.
We are adopting the amendments,
exactly as suggested by the Agency and proposed in our opinion
and order of August
3,
1995.
The text of the additional
amendments is set forth in the order segment of this document.
In our August
3 supplemental opinion and order,
the Board
raised ancillary issues prompted by the Agency’s request for
additional
amendments.
The
definitions
that
the
Agency
would
change are broad enough to include many of the 22 compounds’ and
five classes of compounds2 previously exempted from the
definition of VON,
not just acetone.
Nearly all of the
previously-exempted compounds are not exempted from those other
three definitions.
Further, the Agency’s letter does not suggest
revision of the Section 211.4250(a) definition of “organic
materials”,
but that definition reads parallel to the Section
211.4250(b) definition of “organic material” included in the
Agency’s request.
The Board requested comment on whether amendment of the
Section 211.4250(a) definition of “organic materials” to exclude
acetone is necessary to exempt that material from RPSCT
regulation.
We further requested comment on whether further
amendment is necessary to add express exemptions
for any of the
compounds already exempted from the definition of VON.
The Board
noted that some of these compounds clearly do not fall within the
definitions of “organic material”,
“organic solvent”, and
“petroleum liquid”,
and requested comments to address whether or
not the compounds and classes of compounds exempted are clearly
1
Those previously—exempted compounds are para—chlorobenzo—
trifluoride; 1-chloro-l, 1-difluoroethane; chlorodifluoromethane;
chioropentafluoroethane;
dichlorodifluoromethane;
1, 1-dichloro-1—
fluoroethane;
1,2-dichloro—l, 1, 2,2—tetrafluoroethane;
1, 1—di—
fluoroethane;
ethane; methane; methylene chloride; 1,1,1,2—tetra—
fluoroethane;
1, 1, l—trichloroethane;
trichlorofluoromethane;
1,1,1—trichloro—2,2,2-trifluoroethane; l,1,1—trifluoro—2,2-di-
chloroethane; trifluoromethane; 2-chloro—1, 1,1, 2—tetrafluoro-
ethane; pentafluoroethane;
1,1,2,2—tetrafluoroethane;
and
1,1, 1-trifluoroethane.
2
Those classes are cyclic,
branched, or linear completely-
methylated siloxanes; cyclic, branched, or linear, completely
fluorinated alkanes;
cyclic, branched, or linear, completely
fluorinated ethers with no unsaturations; cyclic, branched,
or
linear, completely fluorinated tertiary amines with no
unsaturations; and sulfur-containing perfluorocarbons with no
unsaturations and with sulfur bonds only to carbon and fluorine.

stated.
The
Board received comments on these ancillary issues from
the
Agency
in
PC
2.
On
the
issue
of
“organic
materials”,
the
Agency
points
out
that
Section
211.4250(a)
term
applies
only
to
new municipal waste incinerators and is not related to the
Illinois State Implementation Plan for ozone.
Therefore,
the
Agency takes the position that no amendment of the term “organic
materials”
is necessary.
On the issue of express exemption of the previously—exempted
compounds from the three definitions of “organic material”,
“organic solvent”,
and “petroleum liquid”,
the Agency essentially
states that this is not necessary or desirable at this time.
The
Agency first points out that the Federal Register Notice that
prompted this action is limited to acetone.
The Agency then
states that it is appropriate to treat acetone separately from
other volatile organic materials because acetone is not a
hazardous air poilutant
(HAP)
or stratospheric ozone depleter.
The Agency maintains that there must be a thorough analysis of
each of the exempted compound’s status as
a
HAP
or ozone depleter
before exempting the previously—exempted compounds from the
other
three definitions.
The Agency stated that it intends to study
this over the next several months and ultimately file a proposal
with the Board if further amendments are necessary.
The Board agrees with the Agency
that any further amendments
are not desirable at this time, but we cannot agree with the
Agency’s stated reasons for not acting further.
Initially,
the
Board has the authority to go back and make corrections in its
rules at any time; we are not bound to the issuance of
a federal
amendtaenL to Lake such action.
(Section 7.2(b)
of the Act.)
Second, the Board notes .that the Parts 215, 218,
and 219
regulations are RPSCT
(tropospheric ozone
SIP) regulations,
not
HAP
or stratospheric ozone rules.
We furthernote that of the 22
compounds listed as exempted in the Section 211.7150 definition
of VON,
at
least sixteen are regulated by USEPA as ozone-
depleting compounds.
The following seven VON-exempted compounds
are class I ozone-depleting compounds
(subject to a 1996 phase-
out under the Montreal Protocol and 40 CFR 82):
1, 1, 1-trichloroethane
(methyl chloroform)
1,1,2-trichloro—1,2,2-trifluoroethane
(CFC-ll3)
trichlorofluoromethane
(CFC—l 1)
dichlorodifluoromethane
(CFC-12)
chlorodifluoromethane
(HCFC-22)
1,2—dichloro—l, 1,2,2—tetrafluoroethane
(CFC—114)
and chioropentafluoroethane
(CFC—llS)
The following nine VON-exempted compounds are class
II ozone-
depleting compounds
(not subject to 1996 phase-out):
7
1,1,
l-trifluoro-2,
2-dichloroethane
(HCFC-123)
1,1,
1,2-tetrafluoroethane
(HFC-134a)
1, 1-dichloro-1-fluoroethane
(HCFC-141b)
1—chloro-l,
1-difluoroethane
(HCFC-142b)
2—chloro-1, 1, 1, 2-tetrafluoroethane
(HCFC-124)
pentafluoroethane
(HFC-l25)
1, 1,2,2—tetrafluoroethane
(HFC—134)
1, 1, 1—trifluoroethane (HFC-143a)
and 1,1-difluoroethane
(HFC-152a)
At least two of the VON—exempted compounds are listed at section
112(b)
of the federal clean Air Act
(CAA)
as
a
HAP
or
at
40
CFR
61.01 as having been given
HAP
consideration
by
USEPA:
1, 1, l-trichloroethane
(methyl
chloroform)
1, 1,2—trichloro-l,2,2-trifluoroethane
(CFC—l13)
Further, USEPA has repeatedly discussed the status of compounds
as ozone-depleting substances in the context of their exemption
from PACT regulation and refrained from diminishing the scope of
their exemption.
(See 42 Fed. Reg.
35314
(July 8,
1977);
44 Fed.
Reg. 32042
(June
4,
1977)
&
45 Fed. Reg.
48941
(July 22,
1980).)
USEPA
has
also
stated
that
a
compound’s
status
and
regulation
under
CAA
section 112 should not affect its status as a PACT—
exempted
compound
due
to
its negligible participation in
tropospheric ozone formation.
(See 56 Fed. Reg.
11387,
11389
&
n.
2
(Mar.
18,
1991.)
For
these
reasons,
the
Board
cannot
accept
the
Agency’s
stated reasons for not immediately proceeding to cure any further
deficiencires in the exemptions of the 21 compounds and five
classes of compounds previously exempted from the definition of
VON.
We will proceed to adopt the amendments as proposed at this
time without further delay in response to the instant motion
for
expedited
consideration.

Section 211.7150
Volatile Organic Material
(VOM)
or Volatile
Organic
Compound
(VOC)
“Volatile
organic
material
(VOM)”
or
“volatile
organic
compound
(VOC)” means any compound of carbon, excluding carbon monoxide,
carbon dioxide, carbonic acid, metallic carbides or carbonates,
and ammonium carbonate, which participates in atmospheric
photochemical reactions.
a)
This includes any such organic compound other than the
following, which have been determined to have
negligible photochemical reactivity:
methane;
ethane;
methylene chloride (dichloromethane)~ 1,1, 1—trichloro-
ethane
(methyl chloroform);
1, l,42—trichloro--2~i,2,2-
trifluoroethane
(CFC-113); trichlorofluoromethane (CFC-
11); dichlorodifluoromethane
(CFC-12); chlorodifluoro-
methane
(CFC—22); trifluoromethane
(HFC-23);
1,2-di-
chloro—l,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethane
(CFC-114); chloro—
pentafluoroethane
(CFC—1l5);
1, l,l—trifluoro—2,2-di-
chioroethane
(HCFC—123);
1,1,1, 2-tetrafluoroethane
(HFC-l34a);
1, 1-dichloro-l—fluoroethane
(HCFC-141b);
1—chloro—1,l-difluvroetliarie
(UCFC—142b);
2—chioro-
1,1,1, 2-tetrafluoroethane
(HCFC-124);
pentafluoroethane
(HFC—l25);
1,1,2,2—tetrafluoroethane
(HFC—l34);
1,1, 1—trifluoroethane
(HFC—143a);
1,1—difluoroethane
(HFC-152a); parachlorobenzotrifluoride
(PCBTF);
cyclic,
branched, or linear compietely—methylated siloxanes;
acetone
(2-propanone or dimethylketone); and perfiuoro-
carbon compounds which fall into these classes:
20
1)
Cyclic, branched, or linear,
completely
fluorinated aikanes;
2)
Cyclic, branched, or linear, completely
fluorinated
ethers with no unsaturations;
3)
Cyclic, branched, or linear, completely
fluorinated tertiary amines with no unsaturations;
and
4)
Sulfur-containing perfluorocarbons with no
unsaturations and
with sulfur
bonds only
to carbon
and fluorine.
b)
For purposes of determining VON emissions and
compliance with emissions limits, VOM will be measured
by the test methods in the approved implementation plan
or 40 CFR Part
60, Appendix A,
incorporated by
reference at 35 Ill.
Adm. Code 215.105, 218.112, and
219.112,
as applicable,
or by source-specific test
methods that have been established pursuant to a permit
issued
pursuant to a
proyr&a dpproved or promulgated
under Title V of the Clean Air Act; under 40 CFR Part
51, Subpart
I or Appendix
5, incorporated by reference
at 35 Ill.
Adm.
Code 218.112 and 219.112; or under
40
CFR Part 52.21, incorporated by reference at 35 Ill.
Adm.
Code 218.112 and 219.112,
as applicable.
Where
such a method also measures compounds with negligible
photochemical reactivity,
these negligibly-reactive
compounds may be excluded as VOM if the amount of such
compounds is accurately quantified and the exclusion is
approved by the Agency.
c)
As a precondition to excluding these negligibly-
reactive
compounds
as
VON,
or at any time thereafter,
the Agency may require an owner or operator to provide
monitoring
or
testing
methods and results
demonstrating,
to
the
satisfaction
of the Agency,
the
amount of negligibly-reactive compounds in the source’s
emissions.
d)
The USEPA shall not be bound by any State determination
as to appropriate methods
for
testing
or
monitoring
negligibly-reactive compounds if such determination is
not reflected in any of Lhe
LesL methods in subsection
(b)
above.
