    FINAL ORDER.
    OPINION
    AND
    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by J.D. Dumelle):
    This matter is before the Board on a Joint Proposal filed by
    Abbott
    Laboratories
    (“Abbott”)
    and
    the
    Illinois
    Environmental
    Protection Agency
    (“Agency”).
    The proposal was proposed by the
    Board for Second First Notice on Nay 10, 1990.
    Subsequent to First
    Notice, negotiations continued between the participants as well as
    the USEPA.
    Both Abbott and the Agency filed comments encouraging
    the
    Board
    to
    proceed
    to
    Second
    Notice
    so
    long
    as
    certain
    corrections were made which would insure
    federal
    approvability.
    On January
    10,
    1991,
    the Board proposed the Joint Proposal
    for
    Second
    Notice.
    On
    March
    19,
    1991
    the
    Joint
    Committee
    on
    Administrative Rules
    (JCAR)
    issued a certificate of no objection
    after the Board made some non—substantive alterations.
    Procedural History
    Abbott first filed this proposed rulemaking in May of 1988 as
    a result of what the company perceived to be deficiencies in R86-
    10, the RACT Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Regulations adopted by
    the Board on April
    7,
    1988.
    During the promulgation of R86-10 and
    up until the present, both the Board and the USEPA have undertaken
    ruleinakings
    regarding
    RACT
    regulations.
    In
    R89-16,
    the
    Board
    adopted regulations as part of the State Implementation Plan (SIP).
    The USEPA has also promulgated RACT regulations under its duty to
    develop a Federal Implementation Plan (FIP).
    Due to the fact that
    many of these regulations overlapped and Abbott felt that some were
    impossible to “live with”, the company sought site-specific relief
    in May of 1988.
    After five hearings and four amended proposals,
    Abbott,
    the
    Agency and the USEPA transformed the regulation into one of general
    applicability which would constitute a SIP revision.
    Both Abbott
    and the Agency, however, indicated that USEPA approval will not be
    forthcoming until the Board
    corrects the definition of Volatile
    Organic Material
    (VOM)
    as
    it appears in R89-l6.
    The participants
    filed a joint proposal to this effect on November 13, 1990 and the
    Board made the appropriate revisions in the VON definition in the
    Second Notice package.

    FIP
    USEPA’s proposed pharmaceutical PACT rules were the subject
    of considerable testimony and comment throughout this proceeding.
    As previously noted,
    USEPA has adopted the FIP,
    which
    included
    Pharmaceutical Manufacturing PACT regulations.
    Subsequent to the
    June hearings, USEPA published its final FIP rules at 55 Fed. Reg.
    26814
    (June 29,
    1990).
    A copy of the FIP regulatory preamble and
    rules was supplied to the Board as
    a joint public comment and is
    included as Attachment A to the Agency’s final comments.
    In all
    apparent
    aspects
    the
    relevant
    language
    with
    respect
    to
    the
    pharmaceutical regulations
    in the pre-publication
    copy found
    at
    Exhibit 37 is the same as in this final FIP.
    As Mr. Romaine of the
    Agency testified,
    the
    FLI’ pharmaceutical rules are substantially
    identical to the Fourth Amended Proposal.
    This
    proceeding
    has
    evolved
    from
    one
    of
    a
    site—specific
    regulatory proposal to a general rulemaking that also corrects the
    stated deficiencies put forward by USEPA in their December 29, 1989
    Notice
    of
    Proposed
    Rulemaking,
    certain
    other
    suggested
    modifications regarding enforceability raised by USEPA,
    and the
    changes
    to
    the
    definitions
    described
    in
    Mr.
    Steve
    Rothblatt’s
    (USEPA)
    letter of October
    5,
    1990.
    The Fourth Amended Proposal,
    coupled with the latest definitional changes, has been determined
    to be acceptable by USEPA.
    It in large part formed the template
    for the FIP Pharmaceutical Regulations adopted by USEPA on June 29,
    1990.
    This
    joint
    proposal
    is
    fully
    supported
    by
    the
    record
    presented to the Board.
    It represents compromises by Abbott
    in
    terms of limitation on the relief that it originally sought in this
    proceeding and constitutes a regulation which the record shows is
    PACT for the two known affected plants in Illinois.
    It addresses
    the
    enforceability
    and
    recordkeeping
    requirements
    which
    are
    necessary to ensure that the Agency has the flexibility to enforce
    the regulations.
    The testimony presented to support the Fourth
    Amended proposal consisted of the testimony of William Robertson
    and Christopher Romaine at the June 27,
    1990 hearing.
    Mr.
    Robertson,
    of Abbott Labs,
    presented a detailed section
    by section
    analysis
    of the changes between
    the Second
    Amended
    Proposal, which he addressed during testimony on March 13, 1990 and
    the Fourth Amended Proposal.
    His section-by—section analysis
    is
    presented at pages
    9 through
    32
    of. the June 27,
    1990 transcript.
    Mr.
    Romaine testified in support of the specific recordkeeping,
    testing and other modifications that he deemed necessary to resolve
    the concerns of USEPA and those that he had raised in his testimony
    on March 13,
    1990.
    (Tr.
    at 36—61).
    As
    Mr.
    Robertson
    testified,
    the
    Fourth
    Amended
    Proposal
    resolves the problems that were contained in P86—10 and resolves
    the issues raised by USEPA.
    The Fourth Amended Proposal contains
    a number
    of definitions that
    USEPA and the Agency believe
    are
    necessary at Section 211.112.
    (Tr. at 15-17).
    12 1—676

    The Fourth Amended Proposal contains revised testing methods
    set
    forth
    at
    Section
    215.102
    in
    response
    to USEPA’s
    proposed
    disapproval.
    (Tr.
    at
    17—18).
    Specifically,
    Section
    215.480(a)
    clarifies
    the rule
    to
    ensure that
    those
    sources which
    contain
    specific alternative applicability cutoff levels are subject to the
    PACT regulations
    if
    their
    emissions exceed
    100 pounds per day.
    The Fourth Amended Proposal in Section 215.480(d) was amended to
    correct
    two
    drafting
    errors
    found
    in
    the
    original
    Subpart
    T
    regulations.
    A specific exemption level
    of 2.5 tons per year is
    added for the air suspension coater/dryer located at Abbott Park
    and the applicability cutoff level for each tunnel dryer was raised
    from 5.0 to 7.5 tons per year.
    These specific applicability cutoff
    levels represent a reduction from that which Abbott had originally
    sought
    in
    this
    proceeding.
    As testified by
    Abbott,
    while
    the
    average emissions for each tunnel dryer may be less than 5 tons per
    year,
    individual
    tunnel dryers may emit greater than
    5 tons per
    year based upon production scheduling needs.
    Abbott had originally
    proposed that the limitation on the tunnel dryers be based on an
    average concept or on total emissions for all eight tunnel dryers.
    In the Fourth Amended Proposal
    the participants
    agreed that
    an
    exemption level no lower than 7.5 tons per year for any one dryer
    was necessary to reflect the variations
    in production
    from each
    dryer.
    P88-14 also addresses the methodology by which vapor pressure
    of certain materials is determined.
    Vapor pressure is an important
    parameter for the pharmaceutical rules.
    The vapor pressure
    of
    volatile
    organic
    material
    determines
    the
    required
    outlet
    temperatures
    for the condensers
    to be used
    on
    centrifuges
    and
    certain other equipment.
    Vapor pressure also has
    a role
    in the
    applicability of other PACT rules,
    including the rules addressing
    material storage in Part 215, Subpart B,
    and the rules for solvent
    cleaning
    in
    Part
    215,
    Subpart
    E.
    The
    determination
    of vapor
    pressure
    was
    considered
    as
    related
    to
    both
    pharmaceutical
    manufacturing and other affected source categories.
    Corrections
    to the current rules were proposed to clarify the methodology for
    determination
    of
    vapor
    pressure.
    The
    proposed corrections
    to
    methodology
    for vapor pressure determination
    in P88-14
    did not
    generate response from affected persons other than Abbott.
    Section 215.480 also governs emissions testing by analyzing
    emissions source operation or material throughput from daily and
    annual
    data.
    This
    is significant because the items that will be
    tested will vary depending on how VON emissions will be determined
    for a particular emission source.
    For example, appropriate process
    records might be the usage
    of VOM solvent, the usage
    of coatings
    and VON content of such coatings,
    amount and type of production,
    in lbs.
    or batches
    (as related to an established emission factor
    per
    lb.
    or
    batch),
    or
    hours
    of
    operation
    (as
    related
    to
    an
    established hourly VON emission rate).
    Appropriate records will
    also be needed to demonstrate use of control devices,
    if any are
    12 1—677

    4
    present.
    For example, control equipment related records might be
    in terms of VON recovery by a carbon adsorber, data confirming the
    operation
    of
    a
    control
    device,
    or
    further
    information
    on
    the
    cooling
    water
    supply
    of
    a
    condenser.
    The
    proposed
    language
    provides flexibility to regulated sources to maintain records as
    needed,
    given
    the type
    of emission
    source,
    control
    device
    and
    operation.
    However the specific form of records for a particular
    emission source will be indirectly specified as
    a result of the
    demonstration required by Section 215.489(d)(3).
    The appropriate
    records and the demonstration must be consistent.
    Section
    215.481,
    Control
    of
    Reactors,
    Distillation
    Units,
    Crystallizers, Centrifuges and Vacuum Dryers, has been amended to
    provide that
    in addition
    to surface condensers
    other
    than
    VOM
    control
    devices
    such
    as
    scrubbers,
    carbon
    adsorbers,
    thermal
    incinerators,
    catalytic
    afterburners or other pollution control
    devices
    may
    be utilized provided
    they
    achieve
    at
    least
    a
    90
    reduction in emissions of volatile organic material.
    This change
    is necessary as
    pointed out
    in the
    testimony
    of
    Mr.
    Robertson
    because there are certain volatile organic materials which are not
    controllable by the use of a surface condenser, which was the only
    specified control device in the original Subpart T regulations.
    (Tr. at 24—25).
    An exception was added to Sections 215.481(b), and 482(b) with
    respect to the necessity to keep centrifuges and filters enclosed
    at
    all
    times
    “except
    as
    production,
    sampling,
    maintenance
    or
    inspection procedures require operator access”.
    This exception is
    necessary because these procedures are necessary and are part of
    the day-to-day operation of this equipment at part of the normal
    course of manufacturing.
    A similar provision was included in the
    Subpart
    T Regulations
    originally
    enacted
    by
    the Board
    for
    in-
    process tanks at Section 215.585.
    (Tr. at 25—28).
    In
    Section
    215.487,
    Testing,
    the
    limitation
    of
    “upon
    reasonable
    request
    by the
    agency”
    was
    added
    to
    Subpart A
    and
    certain alternative procedures have been deleted
    from this rule.
    The
    alternative
    methods
    have
    been
    provided
    under
    Section
    215.480(h).
    The limitation
    in subsection
    (a)
    is consistent with
    the limitations adopted by the Board in the other PACT correction
    proceedings
    in
    P89—16.
    The
    Board
    believes
    that
    the
    same
    “reasonable”
    limitation should be
    imposed
    in the pharmaceutical
    rules as in other similar PACT regulations.
    (Tr. at 28—29).
    This
    is
    important
    because
    the
    listed
    test
    methods
    have
    different
    applicabilities.
    From a technical perspective, the applicability
    depends on the composition of the VON
    -
    one component or several
    components,
    similar
    chemicals
    or
    different
    chemicals,
    or
    a
    particular
    family
    of
    chemicals.
    The
    applicability
    issue
    is
    addressed in each of the test methods themselves.
    There
    is also
    a
    regulatory
    perspective
    on the applicability of test methods.
    Testing
    for
    purposes
    of
    applicability,
    i.e.,
    pounds
    of
    VOM,
    requires an “exact” measurement of the VON in the exhaust from an
    12
    1—678

    5
    emission source.
    Testing for compliance,
    i.e., control efficiency,
    requires
    a
    comparative measurement of VON before
    and after
    the
    control
    device.
    A
    simpler
    test
    method
    may
    be
    possible,
    particularly if the composition of the VON is not altered by the
    control device.
    In general terms,
    Method 18 can be used for all
    purposes;
    that
    is,
    it
    provides
    an accurate measurement
    of VOM
    irrespective of composition.
    It is, however, more complex.
    Method
    25 and 25A may substitute
    for Method
    18
    in certain
    situations.
    Method 25 provides results in terms of total
    gaseous non-methane
    organics as carbon.
    Method 25A is
    suitable for situations where
    the
    response
    of
    a
    Flame
    Ionization
    Detector
    can
    be
    reliably
    calibrated for the particular composition of a VOM stream.
    Section 215.488, Monitors for Air Pollution Control Equipment,
    has been modified
    in the Fourth Amended Proposal to require
    in
    subsection
    (a) (4)
    that
    the
    outlet
    gas
    temperatures
    for
    a
    refrigerated
    condenser be
    monitored
    and
    that
    under
    subsection
    (a) (5) the temperature of non—refrigerated condenser coolant supply
    systems be monitored.
    (Tr. at 29-30).
    Section 215.489, Pecordkeeping, has been added to ensure the
    Abbott
    maintains
    the
    necessary records
    so that
    the Agency
    can
    enforce
    the
    regulations.
    The
    Board
    believes
    that
    these
    requirements are reasonable.
    Existing
    Section
    215.489,
    Compliance
    Schedule,
    has
    been
    renumbered as 215.490.
    The rule has been modified from that found
    in Subpart T by providing
    a compliance date of April
    30,
    1991 as
    the date by which pharmaceutical companies would have to
    comply
    with the regulations for existing sources
    (i.e., construction or
    a modification of which has commenced prior to the effective date
    of these regulations).
    (Tr. at 30-31).
    A pharmaceutical company
    would, under these regulations, have to complete any process change
    or modification to reduce emissions below the applicability cutoff
    level
    or
    install
    control
    equipment where
    the
    sources would
    be
    subject to the regulations by virtue of being above the applicable
    cutoff
    limitations.
    This
    change
    is
    necessary
    as
    Abbott
    has
    proposed deletion of specific alternative cutoff limitations
    for
    certain sources at its North Chicago plant.
    Abbott will need this
    time
    to
    either
    add
    the
    required
    add-on
    control
    or
    make
    the
    necessary process decision which will give rise
    to modifications
    or changes
    that will
    be
    required
    as
    a
    result
    of
    the
    Board’s
    adoption
    of
    these
    rules.
    (Tr.
    at
    33).
    The
    inclusion
    of
    a
    compliance date of April
    30,
    1991
    is consistent with that of the
    compliance date adopted by USEPA of July
    1,
    1991
    in the FIP
    Based
    partly
    on
    Abbott,
    the Agency and USEPA’s protracted
    negotiations which emcompass not only this rule,
    but P86-10, R89-
    16
    and the current
    rules
    before
    this
    Board
    which
    involve PACT
    deficiencies,
    the Board will today proceed with
    final
    adoption.
    The Board believes that these
    regulations represent PACT and are
    both economically reasonable and technologically feasible.
    It is
    121—679

    6
    estimated that tne emissions reduction as a result of this joint
    proposal will be at least 32.3 tons per year
    in the North Chicago
    Area.

    The Board hereby adopts the following amendments to
    35
    Ill.
    Adm. Code 211 and 215.
    The Board directs the Clerk to submit the
    adopted amendments
    to the
