    Proposed Rule. First Notice.
    OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by N. J. Melas):
    On December 16, 1999, the Board dismissed the Illinois Environmental Protection
    Agency’s (Agency) proposed rules on permitting certain used oil management facilities and used
    oil transporters. See
    In re
    Amendments to Permitting for Used Oil Management and Use Oil
    Transport: 35 Ill. Adm. Code 807 and 807 (December 16, 1999), R99-18. Although the
    Board dismissed the Agency’s used oil facility/transporter permitting proposal, the Board
    determined that certain technical changes to Part 809 of the Board’s rules that were a part of the
    R99-18 docket should be addressed in another rulemaking. The Board also determined that one
    substantive change to Part 809 is necessary as well. Amendments to Permitting for Used Oil
    Management and Use Oil Transport, R99-18, slip op. at 1, 7.
    In order to make these changes, the Board, on its own motion, proposes for first notice
    docket R00-18.
    Definition of On-Site for Federal IIS Purposes
    The substantive change involves the permitting and manifesting of hazardous waste. In
    Public Comment 21 for docket R99-18, the Agency proposed a change in the definition of “on-
    site” at Part 809.103. The Agency notes that the Illinois definition of “on-site” for purposes of
    transport of hazardous waste has not been consistent with the federal definition since 1998. The
    Agency’s proposed change conforms the state definition of “on site” to the federal one, making
    them identical. The change affects owners and operators of the same or geographically
    contiguous properties who must use public rights of way to transport hazardous waste from one
    part of a facility to another. Pursuant to the current Illinois definition of “on-site” the owner or
    operator does not need a permit and manifest to transport a shipment of hazardous waste across
    a public right of way. However, the owner or operator needs a permit and manifest if the
    hazardous waste is transported along the right of way. The new language does away with the
    distinction and allows unpermitted and unmanifested transport for hazardous waste both across
    and along public rights of way. It also aligns the state and federal definitions of “on-site”.
    As the Board relies on Public Comment 21 from docket R99-18 in proposing the
    substantive change herein, the Board incorporates Public Comment 21 from docket R99-18 into
    the instant docket.

    2
    Minor Revisions Pursuant to JCAR Comments
    The Board is also proposing technical amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 809. At the
    close of the rulemaking in docket R98-29, the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR)
    submitted a list of typographical errors from the text of Part 809. See
    In re
    Nonhazardous
    Special Waste Hauling and the Uniform Program: 35 Ill. Adm. Code 809 (Pursuant to Pub. Act
    90-219) (December 17, 1998), R98-29. The Board had planned to include these changes in a
    second order for docket R99-18 but could not because the Board dismissed that docket instead.
    The Board therefore includes the corrections in the instant docket. These changes suggested by
    JCAR are nonsubstantive.
    ORDER
    Within the text of the order, deletions from the current text are shown via strikeouts,
    and additions are underlined.
    The Board proposes for first notice the following amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code
    809. The Clerk of the Board is directed to file these proposed amendments with the Secretary
    of State.
