    First Notice.
    OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by J. Theodore Meyer):
    On August
    19,
    1991,
    the Illinois
    Environmental
    Protection
    Agency (Agency)
    filed this proposal for rulemaking.
    The proposal
    is
    intended to
    regulate particulate matter with
    an aerodynamic
    diameter less than or equal to a nominal
    10 micrometers, which
    is
    known as PM-b.
    This proposal
    is directed at the McCook and Lake
    Calumet areas
    in Cook County,
    Illinois,
    and at the Granite City
    area in Madison County, Illinois.
    The Board accepted the proposal
    for
    hearing
    on August
    22,
    1991.
    The
    Board
    also
    accepted the
    Agency’s certification that this rulemaking is federally required
    pursuant to Section 28.2 of the Environmental Protection Act
    (Act)
    (Ill.Rev.Stat. 1989,
    ch. 111 1/2, par. 1028.2), as amended by P.A.
    86—1409.
    Today
    the
    Board
    sends
    this
    proposal
    to
    first
    notice,
    as
    required by Section 5.01 of the Illinois Administrative Procedure
    Act.
    (Ill.Rev.Stat.
    1989,
    ch.
    127,
    par.
    1005.01.)
    The proposal
    is submitted for publication as filed by the Agency.
    The Board has
    made only minor nonsubstantive changes to the rules as proposed by
    the
    Agency,
    in
    order
    to
    conform to
    Administrative
    Code Unit
    requirements.
    The Board emphasizes that in sending this proposal
    to first notice,
    it adopts
    j~
    substantive position on the merits
    of the proposal.
    The Board believes that publishing the proposal
    at this time will maximize the opportunity for public comment on
    the proposal.
    Additionally, the Board has already stated that
    it
    places
    a
    very
    high priority
    on
    the
    quick
    resolution
    of
    this
    rulemaking.
    Beginning the statutorily-required first notice period
    at this time will allow for the most expeditious resolution of the
    proceeding.
    The Board again notes that the Clean Air Act,
    as amended on
    November 15,
    1990,
    requires Illinois to adopt and submit
    a state
    implementation plan
    (SIP)
    for PM-lU
    by November
    15,
    1991.
    (42
    U.S.C.
    §
    75l3a.)
    According to the Agency’s statement of reasons
    in support of this proposal, the PM-b
    standards were adopted by
    125—541

    2
    the United States Environmental Protection Agency
    (USEPA)
    on July
    1,
    1987,
    and Cook and Madison Counties were designated “~roupI”
    areas by USEPA on August
    7,
    1987.
    Additionally, the Clean Air Act
    Amendments
    of
    1990,
    which
    established
    the
    November
    15,
    1991
    deadline
    for submittal
    of
    a
    PM-lO
    SIP, were signed
    into
    law
    on
    November
    15,
    1990.
    However,
    the
    Agency
    did
    not
    submit
    this
    proposal to the Board until August 19, 1991, less than three months
    before the November 15 deadline.
    Because of the notice, hearing,
    and comment requirements imposed on the Board’s rulemaking process
    by several statutes,
    it is literally impossible
    for the Board to
    complete’ a rulemaking in three months.
    Nevertheless,
    the Board
    will proceed with this rulemaking as quickly as
    possible, while
    conforming with the requirements imposed by statute.
    ORDER
    The Board directs the Clerk of the Board to cause first notice
    publication of the following amendments in the Illinois Register.
