Adopted Rule. Final Order.
OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J. Theodore Meyer):
On January 16, 1997, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) filed a
proposal for rulemaking pursuant to Section 28.5 of the Illinois Environmental Protection Act
(Act). (415 ILCS 5/1
et seq.
(1994).) The proposal amends the Board’s air regulations at 35
Ill. Adm. Code 211, 218 and 219 to include more stringent requirements for solvents sold or
used in cold cleaning degreasers. On January 23, 1997 the Board accepted the proposal,
granted the Agency’s motion regarding incorporations by reference and directed this matter to
hearing.
The Board today proceeds to final notice with this rulemaking and will discuss the
procedural history of the rule, the amendments, Agency’s proposal and all comments received
by the Board. The Board will direct that the rule be filed with the Secretary of State for final
adoption pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). (5 ILCS 100/5-5
et seq.
(1994).)
The Board’s responsibility in this matter arises from the Act which charges the Board to
“determine, define and implement the environmental control standards applicable in the State
of Illinois”. (415 ILCS 5/5(b).) More generally, the Board’s rulemaking charge is based
upon the system of checks and balances integral to Illinois environmental governance: the
Board bears the responsibility for the rulemaking and principal adjudicatory functions, while
the Agency has primary responsibility for administration of the Act and the Board’s
regulations, including today’s proposed regulation.
PROCEDURAL HISTORY
Since this proposal was filed pursuant to Section 28.5 of the Act, the Board is required
to proceed under set time frames to adopt this regulation. Therefore, the Board adopted the
first notice opinion and order on January 23, 1997 without commenting on the merits of the
proposal. This proposal was published for first notice pursuant to the APA on February 18,
1997 at 21 Ill. Reg. 1754 (Part 211), 21 Ill. Reg. 1768 (Part 218) and 21 Ill. Reg. 1781 (Part
219). In response to the first notice publication, the Board received comments from the Joint
2
Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR) regarding additional minor changes to the
proposed rulemaking.
A public hearing was held before Hearing Officer K.C. Poulos in Chicago on March 4,
1997. The Agency presented the pre-filed testimony of Richard Forbes, Manager of the
Ozone Regulatory Unit in the Air Quality Planning Section of the Agency’s Bureau of Air, as
well as the pre-filed testimony of Michael Rogers, an Environmental Protection Specialist in
the Air Quality Planning Section of the Agency’s Bureau of Air. (Exhibit 1.) Questions to the
Agency were presented by representatives of the Chemical Industry Council of Illinois (CICI),
Sunnyside Corporation (Sunnyside), Safety-Kleen Corporation (Safety-Kleen) and Cerro
Copper Products Company (Cerro).
Having received no requests for another hearing, the second and third hearings in this
matter were canceled by hearing officer order dated March 20, 1997. Final comments were
due on March 30, 1997 and the Board received two public comments. The Board also
received an Errata Sheet from the Agency.
1
The Board adopted the second notice opinion and order on April 17, 1997 pursuant to
the APA. JCAR reviewed the proposed rule and suggested minor changes which the Board
has made. JCAR issued a certification of no objection on May 13, 1997. Having received the
certification of no objection, the Board may now adopt the rule for final notice.
AMENDMENTS
The Board amendments add a definition for “electronic component” in Section
211.1885. Electronic component is defined as all portions of an electronic assembly,
including, but not limited to, circuit board assemblies, printed wire assemblies, printed circuit
boards, soldered joints, ground wires, bus bars, and associated electronic component
manufacturing equipment such as screens and filters. The Board amendments also modify
Sections 218.182 and 219.182 to limit the vapor pressures of solvents sold or used in cold
cleaning degreasing operations.
2
Cold cleaning is defined as the process of cleaning and
removing soils from surfaces by spraying, brushing, flushing or immersion while maintaining
the organic solvent below its boiling point. (35 Ill. Adm. Code 211.1310.) The amendments
limit the vapor pressure of solvents to 2.0 millimeters of mercury at 20
°
Centigrade, 68
°
Fahrenheit, beginning on March 15, 1999. Beginning March 15, 2001, the vapor pressure
would be limited to 1.0 millimeters of mercury at the same temperature.
The amendments also include recordkeeping provisions which require solvent suppliers
and users of solvents in cold cleaning operations to maintain documents for three years that
indicate the solvent’s vapor pressure at the prescribed temperature. Specifically, the suppliers

Agency’s Errata Sheet is cited as (E.S. at __.).
2
Part 218 is applicable to the Chicago area; Part 219 is applicable to the Metro East Area (St.
Louis). The amendments to each Part are identical.
3
of cold cleaning solvents must keep records of the name and address of the solvent purchaser,
the date of purchase, the type of solvent purchased, the solvent unit quantity, the total volume
purchased and the vapor pressure of the solvent, measured in millimeters at 20
°
Centigrade,
68
°
Fahrenheit. Solvent users must maintain records of the name and address of the solvent
supplier, the date of purchase, the type of solvent and the vapor pressure of the solvent,
measured in millimeters at 20
°
Centigrade, 68
°
Fahrenheit. These requirements apply to the
sale of solvents in units greater than five gallons.
Finally, the Board amendments include an exemption in new Sections 218.182(g) and
219.182(g) for Detrex degreasers or other similar large-scale degreasing units which provide
equal or greater emissions reductions than what is required under these rules.
PROPOSAL
In support of its proposal the Agency filed a “Statement of Reasons” (Reasons) which
indicates that Section 182(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended in 1990, (42 U.S.C.
7511a (b)(1)(A)) requires that by 1996, ozone nonattainment areas reduce emissions of volatile
organic material (VOM) by 15% from 1990 levels. Section 182(c)(2)(B) of the CAA (42
U.S.C. 7511a (c)(2)(B)) further requires all ozone nonattainment areas rated as serious or
above to achieve a 3% reduction of 1990 baseline emissions of VOM each year thereafter for
three years until attainment is reached. (Reasons at 1.)
In Illinois, the Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis (Metro-East) areas are classified as
“severe” and “moderate” ozone nonattainment areas respectively, and are subject to the 15%
rate of progress (ROP) provisions of the CAA. The Chicago ozone nonattainment area is also
subject to the 3% ROP reduction requirement, or a 9% total reduction for the year 1999.
Although the Metro-East area is not immediately subject to the 3% ROP reduction
requirement, the area is at risk of being elevated to the next higher classification, which would
implicate the 3% ROP provisions. Furthermore, additional control measures will assist the
area in reaching attainment of the ozone national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS).
(Reasons at 2.)
The Agency states that in reviewing available control measures that could provide the
necessary reductions, it has selected the measure that is the subject of this rulemaking, as well
as the Emission Reduction Marketing System, which is the subject of another rulemaking
currently before the Board. (
See
In the Matter of: Emissions Reduction Market System
Adoption of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 205 and Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 106, R97-13.)
(Reasons at 2.)
In addition to the Statement of Reasons filed with the proposal, the Agency presented
the testimony of Richard Forbes, manager of the Ozone Regulatory Unit in the Air Quality
Planning Section of the Agency’s Bureau of Air. The Agency also presented the testimony of
Michael Rogers, an Environmental Protection Specialist in the Air Quality Planning Section of
the Agency’s Bureau of Air. Mr. Rogers explained that cold cleaning degreaser operations
occur in auto repair shops, car dealerships, machine shops and metal fabrication and
4
manufacturing businesses. Mr. Rogers stated that there are between 50,000 and 60,000 cold
cleaning units in the Chicago area, and approximately 5,000 to 6,000 units in the Metro-East
area. Mr. Rogers reported that about 32 tons per day of VOM emissions were emitted in 1990
in the Chicago area, and about 2.5 tons per day were emitted in the Metro-East area. (Tr. at
16-17.)
ECONOMIC REASONABLENESS AND TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY
At hearing, Mr. Rogers stated that the phased-in compliance dates of the proposed
vapor pressure limits will allow solvent users and suppliers to acquire and adjust to the use of
the lower vapor pressure solvents. (Tr. at 18.) Mr. Rogers further stated that the lower vapor
pressure solvents are already available on the market. Therefore, the Agency believes that its
proposal is technically feasible.
In addition, the Agency estimates the total annual cost of the 1.0 millimeter mercury
solvent in both nonattainment areas to be between $1.8 million and $6 million. Dividing the
total estimated cost by the annual VOM emission reduction of 7,675 tons yields a cost
effectiveness range of between $238 and $779 per ton. (Tr. at 21.) Therefore, Mr. Rogers
stated, the Agency believes the proposed modifications are an economically reasonable means
of obtaining the necessary VOM emission reductions in both nonattainment areas. (Tr. at 23.)
COMMENTS
Several members of the public raised questions at hearing regarding the Agency’s
proposal. In addition, the Board received two public comments, the first from the Agency
(P.C. #1) and the second from CICI (P.C. #2). This section will discuss the main issues and
the Board’s decisions made during second notice.
At hearing, Cerro questioned whether the Agency intended to create an exemption to
the proposed modifications for Detrex degreasers or other substantially similar units. (Tr. at
28.) Mr. Rogers indicated that the Agency planned to create such an exemption. (Tr. at 28.)
In its Errata Sheet, the Agency explained that Detrex degreasers, and other substantially
similar, large-scale degreasing operations, are highly controlled and specialized operations
which provide emissions reductions that are equivalent or more stringent than what it proposed
in this rulemaking. The Agency stated that an exemption for these operations was necessary.
The Agency also provided language for such an exemption. (E.S. at 1-2.)
The Board agreed with the Agency and Cerro that it is appropriate to exempt from this
rulemaking Detrex degreasers or other similar large-scale degreasing units which provide equal
or greater emissions reductions than what is otherwise required by this rulemaking.
Accordingly, in its second notice opinion and order, the Board proposed the following
language to be added in new Sections 218.182(g) and 219.182(g):
Any cold cleaning taking place in a Detrex cold batch degreaser Model #2D-CC-SPL
Size 24-4-10, or substantial equivalent, including automated loading of parts, totally
5
enclosed operation (excluding loading and unloading) and permitted by the Agency, is
exempt from the requirements of subsection (c) of this Section.
The second issue, raised by Sunnyside, questioned the reason for restricting the sale of
solvents. The Agency stated that it is consistent with the Act and Board regulations to restrict
the sale of certain products, and that other states also restrict sales to achieve compliance.
(P.C.#1 at 1;
see also
35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.561 and 219.561 which limit the sale of
architectural coatings; 35 Ill. Adm. Code 219.585 which limits gasoline distribution.) In
addition, the Agency stated that the supply requirements in its proposal are intended to
increase the use of compliant products which will result in air quality benefit. (Tr. at 31.)
In its second notice opinion and order, the Board agreed with the Agency that the
proposed control focuses on the source of emissions, the solvents, and targeting the sale of
these solvents is a common regulatory approach in achieving compliance. Therefore, the
Board declined to make any changes in the rules regarding this issue.
Sunnyside’s next questions to the Agency concerned the supplier’s responsibility and
liability over a purchaser’s inappropriate use of a product in cold cleaning degreasing. The
Agency stated in its final comments that “[t]he maverick use of an atypical cold cleaning
product will not automatically implicate the supplier if the supplier’s compliance efforts reflect
reasonable diligence. Reasonable efforts at complying with the rule’s requirements not to sell
or offer for sale noncomplying products could include a showing that these noncompliant
products or product types would not normally be used in typical cold cleaning degreasing
operations.” (P.C.#1 at 2.) In its final comments, CICI pointed out that if a solvent is not
normally used in cold cleaning degreaser operations, then its sale is not covered under this
proposed regulation and therefore its ultimate use is irrelevant in terms of the supplier’s
liability. (P.C.#2 at 2.)
In an effort to further address the issue, the Hearing Officer requested comments
regarding the feasibility of placing a warning on product labels or invoices. (Tr. at 43-45.) In
its final comments, the Agency explained that a labeling requirement would not be feasible
because it would be an overly broad burden on manufacturers that market their products on a
region-wide or nation-wide basis. The Agency suggests that a statement concerning
compliance with the degreaser regulation would accomplish the same objectives. (P.C.#1 at
3.) CICI also stated its opposition to a label or invoice requirement. (P.C.#2 at 3-4.)
In its second notice opinion and order, the Board agreed with the Agency that suppliers
subject to the regulations in this rulemaking should make a diligent effort to ensure that they
are in compliance, but pointed out that the intent of these rules is not to find a supplier liable
for the “maverick use of an atypical” product in a cold cleaning degreasing operation. The
Board concluded that it was unnecessary to modify the rules to address the use of atypical
products in cold cleaning operations, or to require notice of this regulation on labels or
invoices.
6
The final issue, raised by Safety-Kleen, concerned whether or not there was a specified
method by which to measure vapor pressure. (Tr. at 42.) The Agency stated that the test
method for determining vapor pressures is specified in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.110 and
219.110. The Board concluded that the methods by which vapor pressures are measured are
adequately outlined in the regulations, and declined to make modifications in this area.
DISCUSSION
The record before the Board indicates that the proposal will be an effective measure in
achieving compliance with the 3% ROP reduction requirements of the Clean Air Act. The
additional control measures in this proposal will also assist the Chicago and Metro-East areas
in attaining the ozone national ambient air quality standards.
The Board further finds that the Agency’s proposal is technically feasible in light of the
phased-in approach for requiring the use of lower vapor pressure solvents, as well as the
current availability of these lower vapor pressure solvents. The Board also finds the proposal
to be economically reasonable because the estimated annual cost of the 1.0 millimeter mercury
solvent is between $238 and $779 per ton in both nonattainment areas.
The Board received two public comments during first notice and the only comments
from JCAR concerned minor grammatical and punctuation changes in the rule. In response to
the comments received, the Board has added new Sections 218.182(g) and 219.182(g) to
exempt Detrex degreasers, and other similar models that achieve equal or greater emissions
reductions than what is required in this rulemaking. With these changes, the Board finds it
appropriate to proceed to final notice with this rule.
ORDER
The Board directs that the Clerk cause the filing of the following amendments with the
Secretary of State for final notice publication in the Illinois Register and for inclusion in the
Administrative Code:
