CBE’s proposal was prompted by the site remediation that took place at two school sites

in Cook County: Finkl Academy and Zapata Academy. Tr. (4/4/01) at 16. Both schools

were built on contaminated property that was in the process of being remediated under the

SRP. Tr. (4/4/01) at 17. At both sites, however, the schools were actually built and opened

without notification to the Agency and prior to issuance of an NFR Letter.

Id

. After this was

discovered, additional remediation was necessary at both sites before NFR Letters could be

issued.

Id

. CBE filed this proposal because it believes that public school sites should be

treated differently than other remediation sites in the SRP.

Id

.

 

The recent enactment of Public Act 92-0151 is worth noting. This Public Act amends

Section 58.16 of the Act (415 ILCS 5/58.16 (2001)) so as to prohibit, in counties with a

population of more than 3,000,000, the occupancy of a school building prior to completion of a

remedial action plan required by Board regulations. The amendment of Section 58.16 applies

only to schools within Cook County. The Subpart H regulations that the Board adopts today

will apply Statewide and contain additional notification and maintenance requirements not part

of the newly amended Section 58.16.

 

  

CONCLUSION

 

In conclusion, the Board adopts the above-described amendments. The Board has made

some additional typographical and other non-substantive changes at JCAR’s request. The

Board finds that compliance with these regulations is both technically feasible and

economically reasonable and that they will improve implementation of the SRP throughout the

State.

 

ORDER

 

 

The Board adopts the following amendments to the Site Remediation Program

regulations. The Board directs the Clerk to promptly file the following adopted amendments

with the Secretary of State.

a) The RA or any subsequent transferee of a remediation site subject to this

Subpart H shall arrange with an LPE for an inspection of the remediation site

within 120 days before every fifth anniversary of the date of issuance of the

NFR Letter. The purpose of the inspection shall be to determine whether or not

the effectiveness of all engineered barriers and institutional controls required by

the Remedial Action Plan and the NFR Letter has been maintained.

 

1) The LPE shall prepare a report on the results of the inspection, itemizing

each engineered barrier and institutional control and whether the

effectiveness of each engineered barrier and institutional control has been

maintained. If the effectiveness of any engineered barrier or institutional

control has been compromised, the LPE shall describe the nature of the

defects.

 

2) The LPE responsible for the site inspection and preparation of the report

shall affirm by original signature as follows:

 

“I attest that the inspection of the remediation site to confirm the

effectiveness of the engineered barriers and institutional controls required

by the Remedial Action Plan and the NFR Letter was performed under

my direction and that:

 

This document and all attachments were prepared under my direction or

reviewed by me;

 

To the best of my knowledge and belief, the work and conclusions

described in this report are in accordance with the requirements of 35 Ill.

Adm. Code 740 and 742, the site’s Remedial Action Plan and NFR

Letter, and generally accepted engineering practices; and

 

The information presented is accurate and complete.”

 

3) The LPE’s report shall be submitted to the Agency no later than every

fifth anniversary of the date of issuance of the NFR Letter.

 

b) In addition to any other remedies that may be available, the Agency may void

the NFR Letter in accordance with Section740.625 if:

 

1) An LPE’s report is not submitted to the Agency by every fifth

anniversary of the date of issuance of the NFR Letter; or

 

2) The LPE’s report indicates that the effectiveness of any engineered

barrier or institutional control has not been maintained.
