PROPOSED RULE
SECOND NOTICE
OPINION
AND
ORDER OF THE BOARD (by B. Forcade):
This matter comes before the Board on an August 26,
1985,
Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
(“Agency”)
motion to
reopen the record in this regulatory proceeding concerning the
internal
offset rule
(Section 215.207),
coke manufacture and by—
product recovery (Part
215, Subpart U)
and petroleum solvent dry
cleaners
(Part 215, Subpart Z).
That motion was granted and
hearings were authorized on September
20,
1985.
This opinion and
order addresses the Agency’s regulatory proposal regarding
petroleum dry cleaners.
The Agency amended its regulatory proposal on November
25,
1985.
Hearings were held December
2 and 3, 1985,
in Chicago and
March 20 and
21,
1986,
in Bolingbrook.
The Agency made final
amendments to its proposal on May 8,
1986,
in response to
testimony and comments made at hearing by the Illinois Fabricare
Association
(“IFA”).
The Department of Energy and Natural
Resources
(“DENR”)
issued
a letter of negative declaration of
economic impact,
obviating the need for further economic analysis
of the proposed rules, on March
24,
1986.
The concurrence
of the
Economic and Technical Advisory Committee to the DENR was filed
on May 22,
1986.
The record
in this matter closed on June 12,
1986 (Hearing Officer Order, May 29,
1986).
On September
11,
1986, the Board proposed
regulatory
language for first notice comment which was published at 10
Iii.
Reg.
16142, October
3,
1986.
The statutory 45—day comment period
ended on November 17,
1986.
The Agency filed first notice
comments on October
24,
1986
(P.C.
97).
The Administrative Code
Unit of the Secretary of State’s Office also filed comments
regarding non—substantive format changes.
Those changes have
been incorporated
in the second notice order.
A detailed discussion
of the evidence and Board resolution
of the issues
is provided in the September 11,
1986, Opinion in
this matter and will not be repeated here.
However,
a brief
summary is provided.
Today’s proposal
is one of
a series
of
Board actions directed at promulgating rules implementing
reasonably available control technology
(“RACT”)
for the control
74-218
—2—
of ozone precursors from existing major stationary sources
(emissions greater than 100 tons/year).
The implementation of
RACT
in non—attainment areas
for ozone is required as part of
a
federally approvable state implementation plan under the federal
Clean Air AcT, 42 U.S.C. 7401 et
seq.
The proposed
rules would
control volatile organic materT~i(VOM)
emissions from major
stationary
batch process petroleum dry cleaning facilities.
Specific emission sources to be controlled are the dryers,
solvent filtration systems and miscellaneous fugitive sources.
Two Illinois plants would be regulated by these proposed rules;
both are located
in an ozone non—attainment area.
Total emission
reductions under
these rules would be 133 tons/year at
a cost
ranging from $350 per ton to $650 per ton.
The Agency’s first notice comments respond to a Board
request
in the September
11,
1986, Opinion regarding proposed
Section 215.612(b).
That subsection provided that should an
attainment county be redesignated
as non—attainment
at some point
in the future that the regulations shall be applicable to that
county and contiguous counties.
The Agency moves to withdraw
that subsection as
it
is
of dubious legality and is not
considered
an essential element or necessary for federal approval
(P.C.
97).
That subsection,
along with Section 215.613(b)
and
(c),
is withdrawn at second notice.
In response to
the
Administrative Code Unit’s comments, Section 215.610(b)
and
(C)
are modified
at second notice as follows:
“subsection” and
“subsections” are changed
to “Section.”
As a final matter,
the Board has modified the deadline for
submission of
a compliance plan.
Under the language of Section
215.613(a) proposed at first notice,
the deadline for compliance
plans
is December
31, 1986, which
is clearly not
a feasible
date.
The Board will propose instead, the date of May 31,
1987.
The Board will withold the submission
of this second
notice
to the Joint Committee on Administrative Rulues for one
week
to allow the Agency to comment on the feasibility of this
new deadline
as
it relates
to the state’s SIP application
to the
United States Environmental Protection Agency.
