Adopted Rule. Final Order.

OPINION OF THE BOARD (by K.M. Hennessey):

Today, the Board adopts amendments to the Illinois regulations that are “identical-in-

substance” to hazardous waste regulations that the United States Environmental Protection

Agency (USEPA) adopted to implement Subtitle C of the federal Resource Conservation and

Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA Subtitle C), 42 U.S.C. §§ 6921

et seq

. (1996). The Board does

so under Section 22.4(a) of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/22.4(a)

(1996)). The Board also adopts amendments to the Illinois regulations that are “identical-in-

substance” to underground injection control (UIC) regulations that USEPA adopted to

implement provisions of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), 42 U.S.C. § 300h

et seq

(1996). The Board adopts these amendments under Section 13(c) of the Act (415 ILCS

5/13(c) (1996)). The nominal timeframe of this consolidated docket includes federal RCRA

Subtitle C amendments that USEPA adopted in the periods July 1, 1997, through December

31, 1997, and January 1, 1998, through June 30, 1998. The nominal timeframe also includes

federal UIC amendments that USEPA adopted in the period January 1, 1998, through June 30,

1998. However, these dockets also considers specified actions taken after June 30, 1998, that

modify actions which USEPA took during the nominal timeframes of these dockets.

Section 22.4(a) provides for quick adoption of regulations that are “identical-in-

substance” to federal regulations that USEPA adopts to implement Sections 3001 through 3005

of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. §§ 6921-6925 (1996). Section 22.4(a) also provides that Title VII of the

Act and Section 5 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 ILCS 100/5-35 & 5-40

(1996)) do not apply to the Board’s adoption of identical-in-substance regulations. The federal

RCRA Subtitle C regulations are found at 40 C.F.R. 260 through 268, 270 through 271, 273,

and, 279.

Section 13(c) similarly provides for quick adoption of regulations that are “identical-in-

substance” to federal regulations that USEPA adopts to implement Section 1421 of SDWA, 42

U.S.C. § 300h (1996)). The federal UIC regulations are found at 40 C.F.R. 144 through 148.

Because this consolidated rulemaking is not subject to Section 5 of the APA, it is not subject to

first-notice or second-notice review by the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR).

This opinion supports the order that the Board also adopts today. The Board will cause

the adopted amendments to be filed with the Office of the Secretary of State and published in

the

Illinois Register

30 days after the date of this opinion and accompanying order. The 30-

day delay in filing is to allow USEPA to review the adopted rules before they become

effective, pursuant to the primacy agreement between USEPA and the State of Illinois.

PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND

In January 1998, the Board reserved docket R98-21 for amendments to the federal

RCRA Subtitle C hazardous waste management regulations that USEPA adopted in the period

of July 1, 1997, through December 31, 1997. In July 1998, the Board reserved docket R99-2

for RCRA Subtitle C amendments that USEPA adopted in the period of January 1, 1998,

through June 30, 1998, and docket R99-7 for federal UIC program amendments that occurred

in the same period. Under Section 7.2 of the Act, the deadline for Board adoption of

amendments under docket R98-21 was December 5, 1998, which is one year after the earliest

federal amendments that occurred in the timeframe of the docket. The deadline for Board

adoption of amendments under RCRA Subtitle C docket R99-2 was similarly April 15, 1999,

and that for UIC docket R98-5 is May 5, 1999.

Section 7.2 of the Act provides that the Board can extend the deadline for adoption of

identical-in-substance amendments by publishing a notice in the

Illinois Register

that states the

reasons for delay. The Board adopted a proposal for public comment in this matter on

September 17, 1998. In a segment of that proposal, the Board set forth reasons for delay and

extended the deadline for adoption until February 22, 1999. As is described more fully on

page 8 below, in the segment of this opinion pertaining to public comments, Notices of

Proposed Amendments appeared in the October 16, 1998 issue of the

Illinois Register

. A

Notice of Public Information on Proposed Rules explaining the reasons for delay appeared in

the October 9, 1998 issue, at 22 Ill. Reg. 18125.

In another segment of the September 17, 1998 opinion, the Board consolidated the two

RCRA Subtitle C update dockets, R98-21 and R99-2, and the UIC update docket, R99-7, for

the sake of expedience and the convenience of the regulated community. This was because the

UIC amendments are very closely related to some of the RCRA Subtitle C amendments

involved, and consolidation of the two sets of RCRA Subtitle C amendments involved would

speed ultimate adoption of all the amendments involved. Further, on September 9, 1998, the

Board received public comment number one (PC 1, described below on page 8 of this

opinion), which requested expedited consideration of certain May 26, 1998 federal

amendments involved in docket R99-2 in our consideration of the R98-21 amendments.

FEDERAL ACTIONS CONSIDERED IN THIS RULEMAKING

As noted, three separate dockets have been consolidated in this proceeding. R98-21

includes federal RCRA Subtitle C amendments that occurred during the period July 1, 1997,

through December 31, 1997. R99-2 includes the federal RCRA Subtitle C amendments that

occurred in the period January 1, 1997, through June 30, 1997. Finally, R99-7 includes

federal UIC amendments that occurred in the period January 1, 1998, through June 30, 1998.

The following briefly summarizes the federal actions that occurred in each of these separate

docket numbers. It also states what action is required of the Board as a result of each federal

action.

Docket R98-21: July 1, 1997, through December 31, 1997, RCRA Subtitle C

Amendments

USEPA amended the federal RCRA Subtitle C regulations four times of interest to the

Board during the period July 1, 1997, through December 31, 1997. These are summarized as

follows, along with a description of the Board action they require, if any:

62 Fed. Reg. 37699 (July 14, 1997)

USEPA extended the capacity variance from the land disposal restrictions for K088

waste for three months, until October 8, 1997. The Board adopted corresponding

amendments to the Illinois regulations in its opinion and order of November 6, 1997, in

consolidated docket R96-10/R97-3/R97-5. No further Board action was required.

62 Fed. Reg. 45568 (August 28, 1997)

USEPA issued a second emergency extension of the alternative treatment standards for

carbamate wastes for one year, until August 26, 1998. No Board action was required,

since the emergency extension had already elapsed.

62 Fed. Reg. 64503 (December 5, 1997)

USEPA amended the land disposal restrictions to clarify that a treatment variance is

available whenever treatment by the prescribed methods or to the required contaminant

levels is not appropriate, whether or not treatment is possible. The Board must adopt

corresponding amendments to the Illinois hazardous waste regulations.

62 Fed. Reg. 64656 (December 8, 1997)

USEPA adopted clarifying and corrective amendments to its organic material emissions

regulations applicable to tanks, containers, and surface impoundments used in the

management of hazardous waste. The Board must adopt corresponding amendments to

the Illinois hazardous waste regulations.

Docket R99-2: January 1, 1998, through June 30, 1998, RCRA Subtitle C

Amendments

USEPA amended its RCRA Subtitle C regulations six more times of interest to the

Board during the six-month time period of docket R99-2. The federal actions during this

period of January 1, 1998, through June 30, 1998, are summarized as follows, along with a

description of the Board action they require, if any:

63 Fed. Reg. 18503 (April 15, 1998)

USEPA adopted air, water, and land environmental standards for the pulp and paper

industry sector. The Board must adopt corresponding amendments to the Illinois

hazardous waste regulations.

63 Fed. Reg. 24595 (May 4, 1998)

USEPA adopted waste listings and land disposal restrictions relating to wastes from

organobromine chemicals production. The Board must adopt corresponding

amendments to the Illinois hazardous waste regulations.

63 Fed. Reg. 24963 (May 6, 1998)

USEPA adopted a direct final rule that was effective July 6, 1998. The rule amends

the used oil regulations to clarify the regulatory status of used oil mixtures containing

PCB-contaminated oils. The Board must adopt corresponding amendments to the

Illinois hazardous waste regulations.

63 Fed. Reg. 28555 (May 26, 1998)

USEPA adopted “Phase IV” land disposal restrictions. The Board must adopt

corresponding amendments to the Illinois hazardous waste regulations.

63 Fed. Reg. 33781 (June 19, 1998)

USEPA partially adopted the hazardous waste combustion rules. The Board must adopt

corresponding amendments to the Illinois hazardous waste regulations.

63 Fed. Reg. 35147 (June 29, 1998)

USEPA adopted technical amendments to the May 4, 1998, organobromine waste

rules. The Board must adopt corresponding amendments to the Illinois hazardous waste

regulations.

Docket R99-7: January 1, 1998, through June 30, 1998, UIC Amendments

USEPA amended its UIC rules three times of interest to the Board during the six-month

time period of docket R99-7. Each of these sets of amendments are included in a larger

rulemaking that also amends the federal RCRA Subtitle C regulations. The federal UIC

actions during this period of January 1, 1998, through June 30, 1998, are summarized as

follows, along with a description of the Board action they require, if any:

63 Fed. Reg. 24595 (May 4, 1998)

USEPA adopted waste listings and land disposal restrictions relating to wastes from

organobromine chemicals production. See the description of Board action under the

RCRA Subtitle C docket R99-2 listing.

63 Fed. Reg. 28555 (May 26, 1998)

USEPA adopted “Phase IV” land disposal restrictions. See the description of Board

action under the RCRA Subtitle C docket R99-2 listing.

63 Fed. Reg. 35147 (June 29, 1998)

USEPA adopted technical amendments to the May 4, 1998, organobromine waste

rules. See the description of Board action under the RCRA Subtitle C docket R99-2

listing.

Later RCRA Subtitle C (Hazardous Waste) and UIC Amendments of Interest

The Board monitors federal actions on an ongoing basis. We have observed that

certain actions since July 1, 1998, that are outside the scope of the nominal timeframes of

dockets R98-21, R99-2, and R99-7 directly affect the amendments involved in those dockets.

Thus, the Board has observed that USEPA amended its RCRA Subtitle C regulations after July

1, 1998 in ways that directly affect the amendments involved in this consolidated proceeding.

The federal actions during this period of July 1, 1998, to date are summarized as follows,

along with a description of the Board action they require, if any:

63 Fed. Reg. 37782 (July 14, 1998)

USEPA removed three amendments from its May 6, 1998 direct final rule relating to

used oil contaminated with PCBs. The Board must include these amendments by

deleting the three amendments withdrawn.

63 Fed. Reg. 42109 (August 6, 1998)

USEPA adopted new listings for five additional hazardous wastes from the petroleum

refining industry, along with land disposal restrictions (LDRs) for these wastes. The

Board received a request for expedited consideration of these amendments, which is

described below on page 17.

63 Fed. Reg. 42580 (August 10, 1998)

USEPA adopted corrections to the May 4, 1998, organobromine production waste

rules, the May 26, 1998, Phase IV land disposal restrictions, and the June 29, 1998,

organobromine waste technical amendments. The corrections affected both the RCRA

Subtitle C and UIC aspects of the May 4 and 26 and June 29, 1998, actions. The

Board must adopt corresponding amendments to the Illinois hazardous waste

regulations.

63 Fed. Reg. 46331 (August 31, 1998)

USEPA adopted technical amendments to the May 4, 1998, organobromine waste

rules. The technical amendments affected the RCRA Subtitle C aspects of the May 4,

1998, action. The Board must adopt corresponding amendments to the Illinois

hazardous waste regulations.

63 Fed. Reg. 48124 (September 9, 1998)

USEPA issued an extension of the Phase IV LDR compliance deadline, until

November 26, 1998, for certain, limited metal-bearing wastes. The Board updated the

incorporation by reference to reflect the federal amendments.

63 Fed. Reg. 54356 (October 9, 1998)

USEPA changed the compliance deadline of the August 6, 1998 petroleum waste rules

until December 8, 1998. The Board does not need to take action on this past effective

date.

Unrelated Federal Actions Having an Ancillary Impact on the Illinois RCRA

Subtitle C and UIC Regulations

In addition to the amendments to the federal UIC and RCRA Subtitle C regulations,

other, unrelated federal amendments might have an effect on the corresponding Illinois rules.

Most notably, 35 Ill. Adm. Code 720.111 includes several incorporations of federal

regulations by reference, and USEPA has amended 40 C.F.R. 136, which is included among

the incorporated references. The federal amendments to 40 C.F.R. 136 are as follows, along

with a description of the Board action they require, if any:

62 Fed. Reg. 48394 (September 15, 1997)

USEPA amended its analytical method Method 1613, as codified at 40 C.F.R. 136,

appendix A. This method is used to test aqueous samples for dibenzo-p-dioxins and

dibenzofurans. The Illinois hazardous waste rules incorporate 40 C.F.R. 136 by

reference at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 720.111. The Board updated the incorporation by

reference to reflect the federal amendments.

63 Fed. Reg. 38756 (July 20, 1998)

USEPA published a correction to 40 C.F.R. 136.3(e), table, as published on July 1,

1997. The Illinois hazardous waste rules incorporate 40 C.F.R. 136 by reference at 35

Ill. Adm. Code 720.111. The Board updated the incorporation by reference to reflect

the federal amendments.

63 Fed. Reg. 44146 (August 18, 1998)

USEPA published a correction to 40 C.F.R. 136.3(e), table, as published on July 1,

1997. The Illinois hazardous waste rules incorporate 40 C.F.R. 136 by reference at 35

Ill. Adm. Code 720.111. The Board updated the incorporation by reference to reflect

the federal amendments.

PUBLIC COMMENTS

The Board adopted a proposal for public comment in this matter on September 17,

1998. Notices of Proposed Amendments appeared in the October 16, 1998 issue of the

Illinois

Register

, at 22 Ill. Reg. 18661 (Part 703), 18236 (Part 720), 18250 (Part 721), 18693 (Part

724), 18370 (Part 725), 18481 (Part 728), 18226 (Part 738), and 18780 (Part 739). The

Board received public comments on this proposal for a period of 45 days following its

publication in the

Illinois Register

, until November 30, 1998. Since that time has now lapsed,

the Board may adopt the amendments, making any necessary changes made evident through

the public comments. The Board will delay filing any adopted rules with the Secretary of

State for 30 days after adoption, particularly to allow additional time for USEPA to review the

adopted amendments before they are filed and become effective. The complete text of the

proposed amendments appears in a separate order adopted this day.

Before adopting a proposal for public comment, the Board received one public

comment on the amendments. That comment was as follows:

PC 1 Copy of September 8, 1998, letter from Mark A. Rein, Assistant Vice

President—Environmental Affairs, Peoria Disposal Company, to Michael J.

McCambridge, Hearing Officer, Pollution Control Board (received September

10, 1998).

The Board subsequently received a public comment from the Illinois Environmental

Protection Agency (Agency). That comment was as follows:

PC2 November 24, 1998 response of the Agency to the public comment period, by

Susan J. Schroeder, Associate Counsel, Division of Legal Counsel (received

November 24, 1998)

In addition to the public comments, the Board received other documents relating to the

proposed amendments. These are described as follows:

Identical First Notice Line Numbered Version, from JCAR, indicating revisions that

JCAR made to the text in preparing the proposal for publication in the

Illinois Register

(received October 20, 1998)

Petition for Expedited Consideration of Identical-in-Substance RCRA Rules, from

Patricia F. Sharkey and Mayer, Brown & Platt, for Clark Refining and Marketing, Inc.

(received November 24, 1998)

In PC 1, Peoria Disposal Company (PDC) requests expedited Board consideration of

certain federal amendments. PDC states that economic benefits will result in Illinois if the

Board takes prompt action on the federal amendments of May 26, 1998, which are a segment

of the R99-2 amendments. PDC urges Board consideration of these R99-2 amendments

together with those involved in docket R98-21. The Board addressed PDC’s request in the

detailed discussion of consolidation of dockets R99-2 and R98-21 on pages 3 and 4 of the

September 17, 1998 opinion.

In PC 2, the Agency indicates five corrections that it believes are necessary to the text

of the amendments as embodied in the September 17, 1998 proposal for public comment. The

Board has made the indicated corrections, and these are indicated in the table of revisions to

the proposal that begins on page 42 of this opinion.

Similarly, the Board has accepted nearly all of the revisions made by JCAR. Those

revisions, and any alternative revisions made by the Board that were prompted by JCAR

revisions, appear in the table of revisions to the proposal that begins on page 42 of this

opinion. The table of revisions not accepted, which begins on page 53 of this opinion,

indicates the small number of JCAR revisions that the Board has not accepted.

The Clark Refining request for expedited consideration is discussed in the segment of

this opinion on the August 6, 1998 petroleum waste amendments, beginning on page 17. The

Board has granted the requested expedited consideration, and the table of revisions to the

proposal that begins on page 42 of this opinion indicates the amendments added as a result of

the Clark Refining request.

DISCUSSION

The federal actions that underlie this proceeding require amendment of the Illinois

RCRA Subtitle C and UIC regulations. This discussion briefly focuses on each by subject

matter, indicating the specific details of the actions taken by the Board where pertinent. The

discussion begins with a brief explanation of the types of deviations the Board makes from the

literal text of federal regulations in adopting identical-in-substance rules. The brief

explanation of deviations is followed by the first series of substantive discussions, which

consider the amendments and actions undertaken in direct response to the federal actions

involved in this proceeding. This first series of discussions is organized by federal subject

matter, generally appearing in chronological order of the significant

Federal Register

notices

involved. That is followed by the second series of discussions, which consider amendments

and actions that are not directly derived from the federal actions involved.

General Revisions and Deviations from the Federal Text

In incorporating the federal rules into the Illinois system, some minimal deviation from

the federal text is unavoidable. This deviation arises primarily through differences between the

federal and state regulatory structure and systems. Some deviation also arises through errors

in and problems with the federal text itself. Sometimes the federal text uses flawed language

or lacks consistency and clarity. The Board conforms the federal text to the Illinois rules and

regulatory scheme and corrects errors that we see in the text as we engage in these routine

update rulemakings.

In addition to the amendments derived from federal amendments, the Board often finds

it necessary to alter the text of various passages of the existing rules as provisions are opened

for update in response to USEPA actions. This involves correcting deficiencies, clarifying

provisions, and making other changes that are necessary to establish a clear set of rules that

closely parallel the corresponding federal requirements within the codification scheme of the

Illinois Administrative Code.

The Board updates the citations to the Code of Federal Regulations to the most recent

version available. As of the date of this opinion, the most recent version of the Code of

Federal Regulations available to the Board is the July 1, 1997 version. Thus, we have updated

all citations to the 1997 version, adding references to later amendments using their appropriate

Federal Register

citation, where necessary.

The Board substituted “or” for “/” in most instances where this appeared in the federal

base text, using “and” where more appropriate. The Board further used this opportunity to

make a number of corrections to punctuation, grammar, and cross-reference format throughout

the opened text. We changed “who” to “that” and “he” or “she” to “it,” where the person to

which the regulation referred was not necessarily a natural person, or to “he or she,” where a

natural person was evident; changed “which” to “that” for restrictive relative clauses;

substituted “shall” for “will;” capitalized the section headings and corrected their format

where necessary; and corrected punctuation within sentences.

In addition, the federal rules have been edited to establish a uniform usage throughout

the Board’s regulations. For example, with respect to “shall,” “will,” and “may” - “shall” is

used when the subject of a sentence has a duty to do something. “Must” is used when

someone has to do something, but that someone is not the subject of the sentence. “Will” is

used when the Board obliges itself to do something. “May” is used when choice of a

provision is optional. “Or” is used rather than “and/or,” and denotes “one or both.” “Either

. . . or” denotes “one but not both.” “And” denotes “both.”

JCAR has requested that the Board refer to the USEPA in the same manner throughout

all of our bodies of regulations—

i.e.

, air, water, drinking water, RCRA Subtitle D (municipal

solid waste landfill), RCRA Subtitle C (hazardous waste), underground injection control

(UIC), etc. The Board has decided to refer to the United States Environmental Protection

Agency as “USEPA.” We will continue this conversion in future rulemakings as additional

sections are opened for amendment. We will further convert “EPA” from federal text to

“USEPA,” where USEPA is clearly intended.

The Board has assembled tables to aid location of those alterations and to briefly outline

their intended purpose. The tables set forth the miscellaneous deviations from the federal text

and corrections to the pre-amended base text of the rules in detail. The tables are set forth and

explained towards the end of this opinion, beginning on page 20. There is no further

discussion of most of the deviations and revisions elsewhere in this opinion.

Some alterations, on the other hand, are more significant, and substantive discussion is

warranted for those. Those more significant discussions are set forth in the following topical

discussions.

Discussions of Particular Federal Actions

Revised CWA Analytical Methods—Section 720.111

USEPA amended the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. §§ 1251

et seq

. (1996) (CWA),

analytical methods on September 15, 1997. The method amended is Method 1613 for the

determination of tetra- and octachloro- 2,3,7,8-substituted dibenzo-

-dioxins and

dibenzofurans by high resolution gas chromatography/high resolution mass spectrometry

(HRGC/HRMS). The method is codified in 40 C.F.R. 136. On July 20, 1998, and August

18, 1998, USEPA corrected the text of its part 136 as published in the July 1, 1997 version of

the C.F.R.

The Board incorporated 40 C.F.R. 136 by reference in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 720.111.

For this reason, the Board has updated the incorporation to include the federal amendments

updating the 1997 edition.

The Board requested public comment on updating the Section 720.111 incorporation of

40 C.F.R. 136 by reference to include these federal amendments. We received no comments

on the incorporation of this updated federal regulation.

Clarification of Availability of LDR Treatability Variances—Section 728.144

USEPA adopted the LDR rules on December 5, 1997, to clarify when a treatability

variance is available from an LDR. USEPA amended 40 C.F.R. 268.44 to clarify that a

treatability variance is available when it is not practical to achieve the treatment standard or

use the prescribed treatment method. USEPA stated that it intended to clarify that a variance

is available at times other than when treatment is impossible. Persons interested in the details

of the federal action and the rationale behind it should read the notice of final rule in the

Federal Register

, at 62 Fed. Reg. 64504 (December 5, 1997).

To revise the Illinois regulations to incorporate the federal amendments, the Board used

the mechanism of an “adjusted standard from a treatment standard.” We believe that this

usage is more explicit than our formerly calling it an “adjusted treatment standard.” This

revised usage clearly focuses attention on the adjusted standard procedure of 35 Ill. Adm.

Code 106. The tables beginning on page 20 indicate the several revisions made in the base

text of the regulations and to the verbatim wording of the federal amendments. The Board

requested public comment on the treatability variance amendments and received none on these

amendments.

Subpart CC Air Emissions Rules for Tanks, Containers, and Surface Impoundments—Parts

264 and 265

USEPA made a series of clarifying amendments to the rules that govern the emission of

organic material from tanks, containers, and surface impoundments that contain hazardous

waste. Codified as 40 C.F.R. 264, Subpart CC and 265, Subpart CC, these are called the

“Subpart CC” rules. USEPA included corresponding amendments to the air emissions rules

pertaining to process vents, of 40 C.F.R. 264, Subpart AA and 265, Subpart AA, and to

equipment leaks, of 40 C.F.R. 264, Subpart BB and 265, Subpart BB. The amendments do

not significantly affect the substantive impact of the rules. Persons interested in the details of

the federal action and the rationale behind it should read the notice of final rule in the

Federal

Register

at 62 Fed. Reg. 64636 (December 8, 1997).

In adopting the rule, the Board did not need to include one of the federal amendments.

The sole federal amendment to 40 C.F.R. 270.14(b)(5) was to alter the format of the

references to other rules by adding “of this part.” We believe that USEPA actually intended

“of this subtitle,” but that is immaterial because this format change is not necessary for the

purposes of the

Illinois Administrative Code

. Thus, the Board has not included amendments to

corresponding 35 Ill. Adm. Code 703.183(e) in this proceeding.

The tables beginning on page 20 indicate the several revisions made in the base text of

the regulations and to the verbatim wording of the federal amendments. The Board requested

public comment on the Subpart CC clarifying amendments and received none.

Pulp and Paper Waste Rules—Section 721.104(a)(15)

USEPA adopted a large, integrated set of environmental standards applicable to the

pulp and paper production industry. These rules included national emission standards for

hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) under the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 7401

et seq

(1996) (CAA), wastewater effluent and pretreatment standards under the CWA, and a single

amendment to the RCRA Subtitle C hazardous waste rules. The hazardous waste amendment

is the only item of interest in this proceeding. (The Board will deal with the wastewater

pretreatment amendments in the presently-reserved docket In the Matter of: Wastewater

Pretreatment Update, R99-5.) The single hazardous waste amendment at 40 C.F.R.

260.4(a)(15) is an exclusion from the definition of solid waste for condensates from overhead

gasses from kraft mill steam strippers that are used to comply with the new NESHAP

applicable to the industry. Persons interested in the details of the federal action and the

rationale behind it should read the notice of final rule in the

Federal Register

at 63 Fed. Reg.

18504 (April 15, 1998).

The Board incorporated the federal amendment into corresponding 35 Ill. Adm. Code

720.104(a)(15) with one minor deviation from the federal text. The tables beginning on page

20 indicate the single revision made in the verbatim wording of the federal amendments. The

Board requested public comment on the pulp and paper production amendments and received none.

Organobromine Production Waste Rules—Parts 721 and 728 and Section 738.118

USEPA adopted and subsequently revised and corrected rules that added two new listed

hazardous wastes from the production of 2,4,6-tribromophenol, an organobromine chemical

product. USEPA added 2,4,6-tribromophenol to the list of hazardous constituents and added

land disposal restrictions (LDRs) applicable to the two new wastes. Through a series of

subsequent corrections and technical amendments to these organobromine waste rules, the

three new LDR rules remain intact, but USEPA changed their effective date to November 26,

1998. Persons interested in the details of the federal action and the rationale behind it should

read the notice of final rule in the

Federal Register

, at 63 Fed. Reg. 24596 (May 4, 1998).

The Board directs attention also to the notice of final rule for the Phase IV LDR amendments,

at 63 Fed. Reg. 28556 (May 26, 1998), the notice of technical amendment, at 63 Fed. Reg.

35147 (June 29, 1998), the notice of final rule, correction of effective date, and technical

amendments, at 63 Fed. Reg. 42580 (August 10, 1998), and notice of extension of compliance

date of final rule at 63 Fed. Reg. 48124 (September 9, 1998).

The Board incorporated the federal amendments into the corresponding Illinois rules

with only minor deviations from the federal text. The tables beginning on page 20 indicate the

several revisions made in the verbatim wording of the federal amendments.

We note that a series of federal amendments may cause confusion. On May 4, 1998,

USEPA adopted the organobromine waste rules, which included land disposal restrictions and

treatment standards for hazardous waste numbers K140 and U408 and a universal treatment

standard for 2,4,6-tribromophenol. These new treatment standards subsequently appeared in

the May 26, 1998 Phase IV LDRs. USEPA adopted technical amendments to the

organobromine waste rules on June 29, 1998. On August 10, 1998, USEPA corrected the

effective date of the organobromine waste rules, which included withdrawing the May 4, 1998

and June 29, 1998 treatment standards for K140 and U408 wastes and the universal treatment

standard for 2,4,6-tribromophenol. However, the August 10, 1998 notice of corrective

amendments indicates that USEPA intended to preserve the treatment standards published on

May 26, 1998, at 63 Fed. Reg. 28702, 28737, and 28748. Thus, the Board included the LDR

treatment standards for K140 and U408 wastes and the universal treatment standard for 2,4,6-

tribromophenol in this rulemaking.

The Board requested public comment on the organobromine production waste amendments.

We specifically requested comment on whether our addition of LDR requirements for K140 and

U408 is the proper result of the several actions undertaken by USEPA in this matter. We received

no comment on these amendments.

Used Oil Management Clarifications and Corrections—Parts 721 and 739

USEPA adopted a direct final rule concerning used oil management that became

effective on July 6, 1998. USEPA stated that the amendments eliminated errors and clarified

ambiguities in the used oil management rules. The amendments specify when used oil that is

contaminated with PCBs may be managed under the used oil management regulations, rather

than under the generally-applicable hazardous waste management standards. They clarify that

mixtures of used oil and conditionally-exempt small quantity generator (CESQG) waste are

subject to the used oil standards. The amendments make a small number of other clarifications

and corrections to the rules.

USEPA withdrew three segments of these amendments in response to adverse comment

on July 14, 1998. USEPA withdrew its amendments to 40 CFR 261.5(i), 279.10(i), and

279.74(a). USEPA did not withdraw its amendments to 40 CFR 261.6(a), 279.22(d),

279.45(h), 279.54(g), and 279.64(g). Persons interested in the details of the federal action

and the rationale behind it should read the notice of direct final rule in the

Federal Register

63 Fed. Reg. 24963 (May 6, 1998).

The Board incorporated the federal amendments into the corresponding Illinois rules

with only minor deviations from the federal text. We amended 35 Ill. Adm. Code 721.106(a),

739.122(d), 739.145(h), 739.154(g), and 739.164(g) in response to this federal action; we did

not amend 35 Ill. Adm. Code 721.105(i), 739.110(i), and 739.174(a). The tables beginning

on page 20 indicate the several revisions made in the verbatim wording of the federal

amendments. The Agency noted that the Board had omitted the amendments to 739.110(i) in

our September 17, 1998 proposal for public comment. PC 2. The Board denies the Agency’s

request because, as noted above, USEPA withdrew these amendments on July 14, 1998. The

Board’ denial is reflected in the table that begins on page 53 of this opinion.

We note that we have altered the references to underground storage tank (UST)

corrective action standards of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 731.Subpart F to refer to the federal

standards of 40 C.F.R. 280, Subpart F. Although the Illinois standards of 35 Ill. Adm. Code

731.Subpart F are the corrective action standards adopted by the Board that are intended to be

identical-in-substance to 40 C.F.R. 280, Subpart F, Section 22.4(d)(3) limits the scope of the

corrective action rules that the Board may adopt under Section 22.4(d) of the Act. This could

result in disparities between 35 Ill. Adm. Code 731.Subpart F and 40 C.F.R. 280, Subpart F

that might render elements of the Illinois RCRA Subtitle C hazardous waste program to

become less stringent than the federal requirements. We avoid this by citing the federal UST

corrective action requirements.

The Board has also inserted the date that USEPA approved the Illinois used oil

management rules, October 4, 1996, for the language, “effective date of the authorized used oil

program,” where it formerly appeared in Sections 739.122, 739.145, 739.154, and 739.164 in the

rules. We used the date that USEPA approved the Illinois rules, rather than November 22, 1993,

when the Board filed them with the Secretary of State and they became effective. We did this

because of USEPA’s use of “approved” in corresponding 40 C.F.R. 279.22, 279.45, 279.54, and

279.64. The Board added an explanatory Board note at the appropriate segments of the regulatory

text.

The Board requested public comment on the used oil management amendments. We

specifically requested comment on whether October 4, 1996 is “the effective date of the authorized

used oil program.” We received no comment on the October 4, 1996 date, but we did receive a

comment from the Agency (PC 2) indicating that the Board neglected to include the May 6, 1998

federal amendment to 40 C.F.R. 279.10(i). We have now added the federal amendment in

corresponding 35 Ill. Adm. Code 739.110(i).

Phase IV LDRs—Parts 721, 728, and 738

USEPA adopted an additional segment of the Phase IV land disposal restrictions

(LDRs). (USEPA adopted the initial segments of the Phase IV LDRs on May 12, 1997, and

the Board adopted those segments in In the Matter of RCRA Subtitle C Update (August 20,

1998), R97-21, In the Matter of UIC Update (August 20, 1998), R98-3, In the Matter of

RCRA Subtitle C Update (August 20, 1998), R98-5 (consolidated).) As part of the added

Phase IV amendments, USEPA adopted amendments that define which secondary materials are

considered wastes that are subject to the LDRs. The recent segment of the Phase IV LDRs

adopted by USEPA established treatment standards for metal-bearing and mineral processing

wastes. USEPA further amended the universal treatment standards for 12 metal constituents

and the treatment standards for all wastes containing those constituents. Among the other

miscellaneous amendments included in this federal action are changes in the standards for

hazardous waste-contaminated soils and an exclusion from the definition of solid waste for

shredded circuit boards in recycling and for certain reused materials in wood preserving

operations. Persons interested in the details of the federal action and the rationale behind it

should read the notice of final rule in the

Federal Register

at 63 Fed. Reg. 28556 (May 26,

1998). The Board further directs attention to the notice of correction at 63 Fed. Reg. 31266

(June 8, 1998), the notice of final rule at 46332 (August 31, 1998), and extension of

compliance date of final rule at 63 Fed. Reg. 48124 (September 9, 1998), which amended the

Phase IV LDR amendments.

The Board incorporated the federal amendments into the corresponding Illinois rules

with only minor deviations from the federal text. The tables beginning on page 20 indicate the

several revisions made in the verbatim wording of the federal amendments.

In one deviation, the Board added language at Section 721.104(a)(9)(C)(v) that reflects

certain requirements unique to the Illinois regulatory scheme. The Board is requiring the

Agency to deny reinstatement of the spent wood preserving solution and wood preserving

wastewaters exclusion in writing, as required under Section 39 of the Act, since the Agency’s

review of an application for reinstatement is in the nature of a permit decision. For the same

reasons, we also explicitly recite the applicant’s right to appeal the Ageny’s determination

before the Board pursuant to Section 40 of the Act. These requirements are inherent in the

Illinois statutory requirements, and the Board believes that explicitly including them in the

rules avoids confusion. This is the approach we took under similar circumstances in adopting

the prior docket in In the Matter of RCRA Subtitle C Update (August 20, 1998), R97-21, In

the Matter of UIC Update (August 20, 1998), R98-3, and In the Matter of RCRA Subtitle C

Update (August 20, 1998), R98-5 (consolidated).

In Section 721.104(a)(16)(D), which relates to the requirements for the exclusion of

secondary materials from solid minerals processing, the Board expressly referenced allowing

the required activities by permit. Again, this is the Agency’s only authority under the Act to

allow activities of the nature contemplated. We further added a Board note that references the

public notice provisions of the RCRA permitting rules in Part 703, since this is the only model

in the regulations for providing an opportunity for public notice and comment.

The Board requested public comment on the Phase IV LDR amendments. We specifically

requested comment on our addition of express references to the requirements for Agency decisions

on exemptions and to public notice and comment requirements. We received no comment on the

references, but we did receive a comment from the Agency (PC 2) indicating that the Board

neglected to include the August 31, 1998 federal amendment to 40 C.F.R. 268.40(i). We have

now added the federal amendment in corresponding 35 Ill. Adm. Code 728.140(i).

Hazardous Waste Combustion Rules—Sections 703.155, 703.280, 703.Appendix A, 721.104,

721.138, and 721.Table E

USEPA adopted an integrated set of rules applicable to hazardous waste combusters.

The NESHAP aspects of these rules, adopted by USEPA under the authority of the CAA, are

not of immediate interest in this proceeding; only those rules adopted under authority of

RCRA Subtitle C are involved. USEPA explained that these amendments finalize only

segments of an earlier, broader proposal. Included are a conditioned exclusion of certain

hazardous waste fuels that are comparable to fossil fuels from the definition of “solid waste.”

Also included are amendments that modify the permit procedure to facilitate facility

modification to add or implement air pollution controls. Persons interested in the details of the

federal action and the rationale behind it should read the notice of final rule in the

Federal

Register

, at 63 Fed. Reg. 33782 (June 19, 1998).

The Board incorporated the federal amendments into the corresponding Illinois rules

with only minor deviations from the federal text. The tables beginning on page 17 indicate the

several revisions made in the verbatim wording of the federal amendments. Significant, and

warranting discussion, is that the amended Illinois regulatory text now refers to certain federal

requirements in the amendments without incorporating those requirements by reference.

When adopting identical-in-substance regulations, the Board is often confronted with

references to federal requirements. When there is a comparable provision in the Illinois rules,

the Board can sometimes substitute the parallel Illinois requirement for the federal one to

which USEPA refers. When substitution is not appropriate, the Board must weigh whether to

incorporate the federal requirement by reference. Generally, the Board will incorporate the

federal requirement by reference when the text that refers to it seems to draw some

requirements into the hazardous waste regulations from the requirements referenced. In this

instance, USEPA includes references to CAA requirements in the hazardous waste rules. The

federal rules at 40 C.F.R. 261.38(c)(2) and (c)(2)(iii) limit the applicability of the

comparable/syngas exclusion to units subject to “applicable CAA MACT standards.” The

Board does not believe that this actually imposes the CAA maximum achievable control

technology (MACT) requirements, so we did not incorporate the CAA MACT standards by

reference at corresponding Section 721.138(c)(2) and (c)(2)(C). 40 C.F.R. 270.42(j) requires

“compliance with 40 C.F.R. 63.1211 before a permit modification can be requested.” The

Board does not believe that this reference actually incorporates that MACT requirement into

the hazardous waste rules, so we similarly did not incorporate 40 C.F.R. 270.42(j) by

reference in corresponding Section 703.280(j).

The Board requested public comment on the hazardous waste combustion amendments. We

specifically requested comment on our decision not to incorporate the federal MACT requirements

reference. We received no comments.

Hazardous Waste Listings and LDRs for Five New Petroleum Refining Wastes—Sections

721.103, 721.104, 721.106, 721.131, 721.132, 721.Appendix G, 728.135, and 728.Table T

USEPA adopted five new hazardous waste listings for wastes generated by the

petroleum refining industry, together with associated LDRs for the new wastes. A segment of

these new listings includes various waste exclusions. Persons interested in the details of the

federal action and the rationale behind it should read the notice of final rule in the

Federal

Register

, at 63 Fed. Reg. 42109 (August 6, 1998), and the delayed effective date (now past)

adopted at 63 Fed. Reg. 54356 (October 9, 1998).

The Board received a request for expedited consideration of these amendments on

November 24, 1998, from Clark Refining and Marketing, Inc. Clark Refining desires the

Board to confer the benefits of the waste exclusions on Illinois industry as soon as possible.

Clark notes that USEPA adopted the new waste listings and associated LDRs under its

Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 (HSWA) authority, so they will go into

effect in Illinois on their federal effective date without regard to when the Board adopts them.

However, the exclusions will not.

See

63 Fed. Reg. 42111 (Aug. 6, 1998); 42 U.S.C.

6921(e)(1) & 6924(g) & (m) (1996). Thus, immediate Board action would minimize the time

during which the Illinois regulations are more stringent than the federal rules upon which they

are based.

The Board will grant expedited consideration of the August 6, 1998 federal

amendments to the extent that we can at this time. We note that most of the provisions that the

August 6, 1998 amendments would impact are already involved in this proceeding. Adopting

the new waste listings and LDRs will not make them go into effect in Illinois any sooner, since

they will take effect in Illinois on their federal effective dates. Rather, adopting the

amendments will confer the benefits of the federal waste exclusions sooner than if we deferred

action until docket R99-15, the RCRA Subtitle C update docket for the period July 1, 1998

through December 31, 1998. The tables of revisions to the proposal for public comment,

beginning on page 42, indicate the several August 6, 1998 federal amendments that we are

adding to this proceeding in response to this request.

The Board notes that there is one federal amendment that we cannot include in this

docket. That amendment affected 40 C.F.R. 266.100. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 726 is not presently

open in this proceeding, so we cannot include an amendment to corresponding 35 Ill. Adm.

Code 726.200. Instead, we will have to defer action on that single amendment until we can

act under the next update docket, R99-15. We note that the amendment to 40 C.F.R. 266.100

is an exclusion from 40 C.F.R. 266 for certain wastes. That exclusion is not essential to the

exclusions under 40 C.F.R. 261 and 268 and corresponding 35 Ill. Adm. Code 721 and 728,

and there is no other reason that occurs to the Board why that omission should delay action on

all the other August 6, 1998 federal amendments.

In granting expedited consideration and making the August 6, 1998 federal

amendments, the Board notes a significant federal error in the text. The existing F037

hazardous waste listing states the wastes that are included in the listing. The second sentence

states what these wastes include, and the third sentence states what is excluded. In addition to

a new ending sentence for the listing, the August 6, 1998 amendments combined the second,

inclusive, sentence with the third, exclusive, sentence by the replacement of a period with a

comma. The result is a single sentence that includes and excludes the same listed items. The

Board believes this was an inadvertent error. The Board has retained the period and not

combined the sentences because that is the only way that they can make any sense.

Discussions of Miscellaneous Other Amendments not Federally Driven

The tables beginning on the next page of this opinion list numerous corrections and

amendments that are not based on current federal amendments. Those tables indicate the

amendments made with a brief explanation. Most of those amendments do not need further

explanation, but the Board believes that there is benefit to discussion of a small number of

them. The Board invites public comment on any of the issues raised by these actions.

Extension of the Subpart CC Compliance Deadline—Section 725.982(d)

Under Section 725.982(d), as it is currently written, the Agency may extend the

deadline for compliance with the Subpart CC rules for specific facilities under certain

circumstances. The extensions are available where special circumstances exist that will delay

compliance and the owner or operator has made all reasonable efforts to comply by the

deadline. As originally adopted, in In the Matter of: RCRA Subtitle C Update (June 1 and

15, 1995), R95-6, the Board charged the Agency with the task of evaluating and granting

requests for extensions of the deadline. The Board now questions whether this was a proper

delegation of authority under the Act.

The grant of an extension of the deadline looks like the type of decision customarily

evaluated and made using the adjusted standard procedure under Section 28.1 of the Act. For

this reason, the Board has amended Section 725.982(d) to provide that the Board will grant an

adjusted standard from the implementation date under Section 28.1 of the Act and 35 Ill. Adm.

Code 106 when the facility owner or operator has made the necessary demonstrations.

Reformatted Equations and Variables—Section 725.982

Various segments of the hazardous waste regulations use mathematical formulae to

express requirements. Those segments include definition of the variables in those equations.

Some of the equations and variables in the base text of Section 725.982 appear in italics.

Under the Illinois Administrative Code codification requirements, at 1 Ill. Adm. Code

100.380(a), the use of italics is reserved for segments of statutory language that appear in the

regulations. The Board is using this opportunity to correct this in the format of all affected

segments of Section 725.982.

JCAR-Prompted Indentation Changes—Parts 703, 721, 724, 725, 728, and 739

In its revisions to the text of the proposed amendments, JCAR indicated a number of

format revisions that it desires the Board to make. Two groups of these changes relate to

textual indentation levels. The Board has made the changes indicated by JCAR and searched

the text of the amendments to make sure that these changes are uniformly applied throughout

the text.

The first series of indentation changes is to the indent level of Board Notes in the text.

The Board’s former practice, at the insistence of the Office of the Secretary of State, was to

indent each Board Note to the level of the text that immediately precedes it. JCAR has

requested that the Board use the indent level of the text to which the note corresponds. This

indent level can often be one or two levels above the immediately-preceding text.

The second series of indentation changes also relates to the indent levels of substantive

provisions. As written, 40 C.F.R. 279.45(d)(1), (e)(1), and (f)(1); 279.54(c)(1), (d)(1), and

(e)(1); 279.45(d)(1), (e)(1), and (f)(1); and 279.64(d)(1) and (e)(1) and corresponding 35 Ill.

Adm. Code 739.145(d)(1), (e)(1), and (f)(1); 739.154(c)(1), (d)(1), and (e)(1); 739.145(d)(1),

(e)(1), and (f)(1); and 279.64(d)(1) and (e)(1) are structured in a way that could create

ambiguity. Their logical structure is to require A and B or C of facilities. As a result of

JCAR suggestions, the Board has changed the indent levels to enhance clarity. We have

altered these eight parallel provisions to essentially require (A and B) or C by changing the

indent levels of A and B to conjunctively coordinate with C.

Correction of a Cross-Reference—Section 725.302

An error in the text of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 725.302 recently came to the Board’s

attention. As it exists, this provision inadvertently requires some interim status facilities to

comply with the permitted facility organic material emissions standards of “35 Ill. Adm. Code

724.Subparts AA, BB, and CC.” This reference is now corrected to require compliance with

Subparts AA, BB, and CC of Part 725.

In the following tables, the Board indicates the location and nature of the kinds of

deviations from the literal text of the federal amendments involved in this proceeding. The

first table includes deviations made in this Proposal for Public Comment from the verbatim

text of the federal amendments that are driving this docket. The second table indicates

corrections and clarifications that the Board had discovered and made in the base text involved

this proposal. The amendments listed in this second table are not directly derived from the

current federal amendments. The second table begins on page 38 of this opinion. The third

table, which begins on page 42 of this opinion, indicates the revisions made to the text of these

amendments as proposed in our September 17, 1998 order. The associated fourth table

beginning on page 53 indicates the recommended changes to the proposed text that the Board

has not accepted. The sources of the recommendations for changes to the proposed text are

indicated in the center column of the third and fourth tables. Some of the entries in these

tables are discussed further in appropriate segments of the general discussions beginning on 9

of this opinion.
