OPINION

AND

ORDER OF THE BOARD

 (by E.

 Dunham):

Pursuant to Section 502(d)

 of the Clean Air Act (CAA)

as

amended in 1990

 (42 U.S.C.

 §7661a(d)), Illinois is to submit to

the United States Environmental Protection Agency

 (U.S.

 EPA),

no

later than November 15, 1993,

 a permit program that meets the

requirements of Title V of

CAA

and the federal regulations

promulgated thereunder

 (40 CFR 70).

 Illinois adopted Section

39.5 of the Enviromuental Protection Act (415 ILCS 5/39.5

 (1992))

to implement the Clean Air Act Permit Program (CAAPP) which meets

the federal requirements.

 Pursuant to Section

 39.5(5) (w), the

Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency)

 is required to

propose regulations to the Board defining insignificant

 activities or emission levels no later than March 16,

 1994.

These regulations must be consistent with the federal

regulations, if any, and Section 112(n) (1)

 of the CAA.

 Because

of ongoing negotiations, the Agency submitted this proposal after

the deadline.

 The Board is required to adopt final regulations

within nine months of the filing of the Agency’s proposal.

 (415

ILCS 5/39.5(5)(w)

 (1992).)

On May 12, 1994,

 the Agency filed this proposal for

rule

making pursuant to Section 28.5 of the Environmental Protection

Act

 (Act).

 (415 ILCS 5/28.5

 (1992).)

 Pursuant to the provisions

of that section the Board is required to proceed within the set

timeframes toward the adoption of the regulation.

 The Board has

no discretion to adjust these time frames under any

circumstances.

 Today the Board acts to adopt this rule as final

and send the amendments to the Administrative Code Division of

the Secretary of State’s office for publication and assignment of

an effective date pursuant to the Illinois Administrative

Procedure Act

 (APA).

 (5 ILCS 100/1005—40

 (1992).)

The Board’s responsibility in this matter arises from the

Environmental Protection Act.

 (415 ILCS 5/1 et

 seq.

 (1992).)

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)

 (1992)

 More generally, the Board’s

rulemaking charge is based on the system of checks and balances

integral to the Illinois environmental governance:

 the Board

bears responsibility for the rulemaking and principal

adjudicatory functions;

 the Agency has primary responsibility for

2

administration of the Act and the Board’s regulations.

The

latter includes administering today’s new regulation.

PROCEDURAL HISTORY

The Board sent this proposal to first notice under the APA

on May 19,

 1994, without commenting on the merits of the

proposal.

 The proposed rule was published in the Illinois

Register on June 3,

 1994, at 18 Ill. Reg. 8331 (Part 211) and 18

Ill. Reg. 8347

 (Part 201).

 A hearing was held on June 28,

 1994,

in Chicago, Illinois before hearing officer Diane O’Neill.

Previously—scheduled second and third hearings were cancelled

pursuant to Section 28.5(g)

 of the Act because a request for a

second hearing was not received by the Board.

 (415 ILCS 5/28.5(g)

(1992).)

 Pursuant to Section 28.5(1), the comment period closed

on July 21,

 1994.

 (415 ILCS 5/28.5(1)

 (1992).)

 On August 11,

1994, the Board sent the proposed amendments to the Joint

Committee on Administrative Rules

 (JCAR)

 for review as required

by the APA.

 On September 13,

 1994, JCAR voted a certificate of

no objection to the rule.

 JCAR recommended minor grammatical

corrections which the Board incorporates into the rules.

DISCUSSION

This proposal affects all sources subject to the CAAPP

pursuant to Section 39.5 of the Act, which includes any “major

source” as defined in Section 39.5(2) (c) or Section 112 of the

CAA,

 excluding a source required to have a permit solely because

it is subject to Section 112(r) of the CAA, and any affected

source subject to Title IV of the CAA.

This rulemaking amends Parts 201 and 211 to define

insignificant sources or emission levels.

 Emission information

from insignificant activities or emissions may be submitted as a

list within the CAAPP application.

 (415 ILCS 5/39.5(5) (2)

(1992).)

Part 201 contains the general permitting regulations for

sources of air pollution.

 The Agency proposes to amend Part 201

to establish a separate Subpart F to apply only to CAAPP sources.

Amendments to Part 211 are proposed to provide definitions

for terms used in the accompanying proposed amendments

 in Part

201.

 Definitions for the following terms are proposed:

“emergency or standby unit,” “organic solvent,” “rated heat

capacity,” “stationary gas turbine,” and “stationary

reciprocating internal combustion engine.”

 Newly used

abbreviations and conversion factors are also proposed to amend

 Section 211.102.
