OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD

(by

G. T. Girard):

On November 14, 1995, the illinois Environmental

Protection

Agency (Agency) filed

this proposal for rulemaking pursuant to Section 28.5 of the Environmental

Protection

Act

(Act)

(415

ILCS 5/1 et seq.

(1994)).

Section 189(a) of the

federal

Clean Air Act (CAA), as

amended in 1990,

requires all areas classified as moderate

nonattainment areas for

particulate

matter

with

an aerodynamic diameterless

than

or equal to a nominal ten micrometers (PM-b)

to present a

state

implementation plan (SIP) for implementing reasonably available control

measures

(RACM). On

November 15, 1990, the

United States

Environmental Protection

Agency (USEPA) designated

Lake

Calumet

and

McCook areas in Cook County

and

Granite

City

in Madison County as moderate

nonattainment areas for PM-10.

On

May 15, 1992, a

SIP was

submitted for

Lake

Calumet, McCook,

and Granite

City. The USEPA conditionally

approved the

SIP

on November 18,

1994.

(59

F.R. 59653.)

These

proposed amendments will

address the

concerns raised

by USEPA

in

the conditional approval of the SIP.

The

Board’s

responsibility

in this

matter arises from the Environmental Protection Act

(Act) (415 ILCS 5/1 et seq.

(1994)).

The

Board

is charged

therein

to “determine, define and

implement

the

environmental control standards applicable

in

the

State

of

illinois”

(415

ILCS

5/5(b)).

More generally, the

Board’s

rulemaking charge is based on the system of

checks and

balances integral

to Illinois environmental governance: the

Board bears

responsibility for the

rulemaking

and

principal adjudicatory functions; the Agency

has primary

responsibility for

administration of the Act

and

the Board’s regulations. The

latter

includes

administration

of

today’s

new regulation.

This

proposal was

filed

pursuant to Section 28.5 of the Act. (415 ILCS

5/28.5.)

Pursuant

to the provisions of that

section

the

Board

is

required

to proceed within

set

time-

frames toward

the adoption of

this

regulation. The

Board

has no discretion to adjust

these

time-frames

under any circumstances. Therefore, the

Board adopted

the first

notice

opinion

and

order on November 16,

1995,

without commenting on the

merits

of the proposal. The

proposal

was

published for first notice under the

Illinois

Administrative Procedure Act

(5

ILCS 100/1-1

et seq.)

on

December

1,

1995

at 19 III. Reg. 15925 (Part 211)

and

19 Ill. Reg.

15940 (Part 212). The

Board

held a hearing on

January

5,

1996,

before

Board

hearing officer

---

2

Marie Tipsord. The remaining

scheduled

hearings were canceled by hearing officer order

dated

January

25,

1996, and

the

record was

closed on

January

31,

1996.

The

Board

today finds that the proposal is

economically

reasonable

and technically

feasible

and

sends

this

matter to the legislative Joint

Committee

on Administrative Rules for

second

PROPOSAL

Although

this

proposal includes amendments which will apply statewide, the major

changes in

this

proposal

will affect

steel production

sources located

in the McCook

and Lake

Calumet areas in Cook County and the

Granite

City area in Madison County.

(Reasons

at 3.)’

As previously stated the proposal addresses

several concerns

raised by USEPA in the

conditional

SIP

approval. The USEPA cited to four issues which

needed

to be addressed in

rulemaking prior to full

SIP

approval. Pursuant to the CAA, illinois must address

these

issues

within 12 months or the conditional approval

becomes

a partial disapproval

and

sanctions

will

1)

a 20 percent opacity limit on uncaptured particulate matter from a basic

oxygen

furnace

(BOF) shop;

2)

a 30

percent

opacity limit on coke oven combustion stacks;

3)

a 20 percent opacity

limit

on the roof ventilators for certain electric

arc

furnaces; and

4)

amendments to

clarify

wording.

(Reasons

at 4-6.)

According to the Agency, the 20 percent opacity limit for the roof monitor

and

other

building openings at the

Granite

City Steel BOF shop “correlates more accurately with the

emissions estimate

used

in the attainment demonstration”. (rSD at 2; Reasons at 4.) The

Agency

also

indicated that a 20 percent opacity limit is consistent with the opacity limit

selected

by the nearby

states

of

Indiana,

Michigan

and

Ohio for the BOFs in

those states.

(Id.)

Compliance with the 20 percent opacity

limit

can be demonstrated using Method 9

contained

in

40 CFR 60 except that a shorter averaging time of three minutes will be

used instead

of

six

minutes

to reflect that some of the BOF operations do not last

six

minutes.

(Id.)

The Agency

further stated

that

Granite

City Steel

has

agreed to a more stringent

limit

of60 pounds per

The statement of

reasons

from the Agency’s proposal will be cited as “Reasons at

_“;

the

technical support document attached to the proposal will be cited as “TSD at

comment will be cited as “P.C. # at

3

hour ofPM-10 and a new

rate based

limit of0.225 pounds ofPM-10 per ton of steel produced

for the BOF stack.

(Id.)

The

second concern delineated

by USEPA

dealt with

the lack of an opacity limit for

coke

oven combustion

stacks. (Reasons

at 4.) Without such a limit, USEPA is concerned that

this could delay any potential

enforcement and therefore

early

correction. The Agency states

that the

performance

ofa stack

test

is much more

costly and

time consuming than an opacity

reading.

(TSD at 3;

Reasons

at 4.) Therefore the Agency’s

proposal sets an

opacity limit of

30 percent for coke oven combustion

stacks. (Reasons

at 4.) Sources

which are affected

by

this proposal believe

that the 30

percent opacity

limit can be met

except

when one of the ovens

needs

to be

repaired

and is

taken off-line

for

ceramic

welding. (TSD at 4;

Reasons

at 4-5.)

The Agency

has proposed an

exemption

from

the 30 percent opacity limit for up to three hours

when a coke oven is being

repaired. (Reasons

at 5.)

The USEPA

also expressed concern

that the roof monitors for the

electric arc furnaces

at the

steel foundry located

in

Granite

City are too short to

accommodate

stack

testing

equipment

and cannot

be

easily

altered to do so.

(Reasons

at 5.)

Because

of the inability to

accommodate stack testing

equipment, the Agency

indicated

it is not possible to readily test

whether the emissions from the ventilators are in

compliance

with the mass emission limit.

(TSD at 5;

Reasons

at 5.) A 20 percent

opacity

limit is equivalent to the mass emission limit

at the

steel

foundry and a 20

percent

limit can be applied to the

entire

facility as other stacks

may also be too short for

testing. (Reasons

at

5.)

The

proposal also clarifies language

in

several sections

which USEPA believed was

confusing or duplicative.

Specifically,

the USEPA believed

that

the

language in

Section

212.107

was

confusing.

(Reasons

at

5.)

Further,

USEPA considers the

language

in Section

212.110 to be duplicative

and

inconsistent with the

language

in Sections 212.107, 212. 108,

and 212.109.

(Id.)

Finally,

the USEPA expressed

concern

that the

language

in Sections

212.324(d), 212.362(c), 212425(c), 212.458(c) and 212.464(c) could be read to exempt

sources

with no visible emissions from any stack

testing.

(Id.)

The Agency

has also

proposed minor amendments to eliminate duplicative or obsolete

sections, to update language consistent with the Clean Air Act Permit Program, to

clarify

rules,

to address the Secretary of State’s recommended style, and to amend the limitations

found at

35

III. Adm. Code 212.458(b)(25) which

pertain

to a specific magnesium facility in

Granite City.

COMMENTS

The

Board

received five comments on

this

rulemaking

and

one statement on the record

at the

January

5,1996 hearing. In addition, the Agency testified

and

answered questions

regarding the proposal at that public

hearing.

Mr. James T. Harrington

appeared

at hearing

and offered a statement on behalf of the illinois Steel Group. The following participants

submitted public comments:

Public Comment

Agency comment by Rachel L. Doctors.

Chicago Department

of the Environment

The

Chicago Department

of the Environment’s (CDOE) comment indicates that CDOE

generally

supports

the proposal; however, CDOE is

“opposed

to the

repeal of”

Section

212.315, “Covering of Vehicles”. CDOE

states:

While

other regulations can be indirectly applied to vehicle

load

emission

situations,

the current

section delineates a direct

statutory violation for

this

regularly occurring

public

nuisance. Repeal

of

this nile significantly erodes

the

ability

ofCDOE

and

the

Illinois Environmental Protection

Agency to effectively

enforce

and control particulate

emissions from

this source category, and

prevents the general populace (i.e. affected community residents) from

serving

in a desired

and needed

role as observer

and witness

(P.C. 1 at 2.)

CDOE

also indicated

that although repeal of the Ringelmann Chart references is

consistent with the more

updated and

precise use of percent opacity values, the Ringelmann

Chart has

been used

fairly recently in training. (P.C. 1 at 1.) CDOE also urged the State to

provide a more contextual definition

and

illustration ofthe “Universal Transmercator

boundaries” in Section 212.315. (P.C. 1 at 2.)

Agency

Response

The Agency indicated that the Ringelmann Chart is no longer

used in training and

that

the Agency is developing a map that

will

provide to the City clarified “Universal

Transmercator boundaries”. (P.C. 5 at 2-3.) With regard to the

repeal

of Section 212.3 15,

the Agency notes that Section 10(E) ofthe Act prohibits the

Board

from enforcing any

regulation which requires a covering on a truck that is stricter than Section 15-109.1 of the

Illinois Vehicle Code (625 ILCS 5/1-101

et seq.).

(P.C. 5 at 2.) Section 15-109.1 prohibits

the operation of

any

second division vehicle ifa portion of the load is sifting, blowing,

dropping or escaping from the vehicle. Section 212.315 requires that a vehicle be covered to

---

5

prevent the

release

of

particulate

matter. “Hence, the requirements of the

two sections

are not

parallel.” (P.C. 5 at 3.) The Agency

will

agree that Section 212.315

need

not be

repealed

if

the

Board

will note

that

the provisions of the Motor Vehicle Code supersede those in

Board

regulations.

(Id.)

The

Board

agrees that the repeal of Section 2 12.315 is not

necessary

at

this

time.

Clearly, the

Board’s

regulations cannot supersede a

statutory

provision and therefore, the

provisions of Section 212.315 may not be

construed

as more stringent than Section 15-109.1

of the Vehicle Code.

Spectrulite Consortium.

Spectrulite Consortium, Inc.

(Spectrulite)

comments

that

it is concerned with the

provisions of Section 212.458(b)(25) which allows Spectrulite to contemporaneously

operate

two magnesium

pot furnace

lines at the Granite City

facility. Spectrulite

requests that the

amendment be clarified to make clear that no more

than

two lines may operate at a time.

Spectrulite

requests the following amendment to Section 212.458(b)(25):

Magnesium

secondary

aluminum smelting

and

refining plant

located

in the vicinity of Granite City, as defined in Section 2 12.324 (a) (1) (C)

Agency Response

The Agency

agrees with

the comment

filed

by

Spectrulite and

agrees that the language

should be included. (P.C.

5

at 1.)

The

Board

will

amend the proposal to reflect the comment

by

Spectrulite.

Grain and Feed

Association of illinois

The

Grain

and

Feed

Association of Illinois (Association) asks that the

Board

consider

the addition of a

Board

note to Section 212.462. The Association is concerned that while

Section 9 of the Act exempts

country grain

elevators from Section 212.462(b) “on its face

purports

to apply to

these

exempted facilities”. (P.C. 3 at 1.) The Association points out that

a rule

cannot override

the

statute.

The Association asks that the following be added:

Board Note:

Section 9 ofthe

Illinois Environmental Protection

Act has

been

amended to exempt certain facilities from

portions

of

this rule.

The Agency did not

address

the comment by the

Association.

The

Board

agrees that

the a rule cannot override the statute. However, the

Board does

not believe that a

Board

note

need

be added to Section 212.462. Therefore, the

Board declines

to adopt the change

suggested

by the Association.

The Illinois Attorney General’s Office

suggested that

the

from 1972 to 1987. (P.C. 4 at 1.)

Agency

Response

The Agency

indicated that

it is

currently investigating the

impact of the

updated

incorporation suggested by the Attorney General’s Office. (P.C.

believes that “it is inappropriate to make that change without a more complete explanation

being developed at hearing”.

(Id.)

The Agency stated that the change from 1972 to 1987 “may

impact source classifications”. (P.C. 5 at 2.) The Agency indicates that it

will

consider

this

change for future amendments.

(Id.)

The

Board agrees

that more investigation should be

undertaken

before

updating this incorporation.

Therefore, the

Illinois Steel Group

The illinois Steel Group (ISG)

indicated

agreement with the portions of the proposal

which

will affect

the steel industry

with two amendments.

ISO asked the Agency to consider

an amendment to Section 212.458(b)(23) in order to clarify the meaning of

the

at 24-26.) The change would read:

23)

31.1

2L24 kg/u (6&4&~lbs/k) and

0.1125 kg/Mg (0.225 lbslT) of total steel

produced in process.

whichever

limit is more stringent for the total of

all

basic

oxygen

furnace processes described

in Section 212.446(a) of

this

Subpart

and

measured

at the BOF stack

at steel plant in the

vicinity

of Granite City,

as defined in Section 2l2.324(a)(1)(C) of

this

Part

(Tr. at 27; P.C.

5

at 4.)

The second amendment was to Section 212.443 and ISO asked ifthe Agency would object to

applying Method 9 from 40 CFR 60, Appendix A to coke battery stack

testing

in Section

212.443. (Tr. at 22.) The Agency indicated that it would not and ISG offered the following

g)

this

Part.

Agency

Response

The Agency agrees with the language suggested by ISG. (P.C. 5 at 4.) The

Board

will

amend

the

proposal

to reflect

these

changes.

General Agency

Comments

The Agency also responded to

two

questions

that

the

Board presented

to the Agency at

hearing.

The

first

of those questions concerned the

definition

for

“animal kingdom”

at Section

211.484.

The Agency replied that it

agrees that

most biologists believe

that

there

are

more

than

two kingdoms

and suggests that “plants” be replaced with

“other multicellular organisms”.

The Agency also suggests that

“kingdom, Animal” be replaced

with

“kingdom, Animalia”.

(P.C. 5 at 3.) The

second

question which the Agency responded to is whether the abbreviation

for liter should be “1” or “L”. The Agency believes

that

appropriate abbreviation is “L”.

(Id.)

However, the Agency

requests

that for consistency the change be made in

Part

212 but not in

Part

211 at this time. The

Board will make

these changes as

recommended

by the Agency.

At the

January

5,

1996, hearing

the Agency

submitted an “Errata

Sheet” as

exhibit

5.

Included on

the Errata

sheet is the following:

This rulemaking proposes

to delete

references to

the

Ringelmann Chart;

however, it

omitted deleting

the

definition

for the

Ringelmann Chart.

35 ifi.

Adm. Code 211,5650 should be

repealed.

(Exhibit

5.)

The

Board cannot make this

change. Section 211.5650

was

not

proposed

for amendment at

first

notice. The

Board cannot open a

new

section

for the

first

time at

second notice.

(~ 5

ILCS

5-40.)

If the Agency believes that

this change

is

necessary

the Agency wifi

need

to

include this

change in a future rulemaking. The

Board will make the

other changes

recommended

on the Errata sheet.

DISCUSSION

The

Board has carefully

considered all public comments, as well as the testimony

and

exhibits,

in

this matter.

There is no

substantive disagreement between

the

commenters and the

Agency as to the

substance

of the rule.

In response to

the comments the

Board will further

amend

the

proposal

in

several areas.

As

requested

by

CDOE,

the

Board will

not

repeal

Section 212.3 15 at this time.

Clearly,

the

Board’s

regulations cannot supersede a

statutory

provision and therefore, the provisions of Section 212.315 may not be

construed as

more

stringent

than Section 15-109.1

of the Vehicle Code.

Further,

in response to a comment from

Spectrulite,

the

Board will amend Section 212.458(b)(25) to clarify

the language. The Board

will also amend the

proposal as suggested

by the

illinois Steel

Group and

agreed

to by the

Agency.

Further,

the

Board will amend

the

proposal as suggested

by the Agency in the

errata

sheet

except

for the request to

repeal

CONCLUSION

The

Board

finds that the

proposed rules are technically

feasible and

economically

reasonable,

and that the

rules are necessary

to meet the requirements of the

Clean Air

Act.

We

find

that the

record supports proceeding

with the

proposed

rules, as

amended,

to

second

notice.

The method for

determining an adjusted opacity standard

is as follows:

1)

A minimum of 60

consecutive minutes

of opacity readings

obtained in

accordance

with

USEPA

Test Method 9,40 CFR p~t60,

Appendix A,

incorporated

by reference in

Section 212.113 of

this Part, shall

be

taken

during each sampling run. Therefore, for each performance test (which

normally consists of three sampling runs), a total of three sets of opacity

readings totaling three hours or more shall be obtained. Concurrently,

the particulate emissions data from three sampling runs obtained in

accordance

with

USEPA Test Method

5,40

CFR p~t60, Appendix A,

incorporated by reference in Section 212.113 of this Part, shall also be

obtained.

2)

After the results of the performance tests are received from the emission

sourceiinil, the status of compliance with the applicable particulate

emissions limitation shall be determined by the Agency. In accordance

with USEPA Test Method 5,40 CFR p~60, Appendix A, incorporated

by reference in Section 212.113 of this Part, the average of the results of

the

three sampling runs must be less than the allowable particulate
