MOTION TO WAIVE SIGNATURE REQUIREMENT,
The NORA, An Association of Responsible Recyclers ("NORA"), by and through its
attorney, Claire A. Manning, Brown Hay & Stephens LLP ., moves to waive the signature
requirements of Section 102.200 of the Illinois Pollution Control Board's ("Board") regulations
.
35 Ill. Adm. Code 102.200. NORA is seeking to amend the Board's waste rules to clarify that
the obligation related to the transportation of used oil as defined and managed in Part 739 is as
described in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 739 (Part 739), not 35 Ill . Adm. Code 808 and 809 .
NORA (formerly, the National Oil Recycling Association) is a trade association
comprised of more than 200 companies providing used oil collection and
recycling services throughout the entire United States, including Illinois and the
surrounding states .
2 .
Founded in 1984, NORA was actively involved in the creation of the federal rules
governing the management and transportation of used oil, found at 40 CFR 279,
which were promulgated in 1985 and 1992 and which the Board adopted as
Illinois regulations in 1993, via its Identical in Substance rulemaking authority
.
See R93-4 (September 23, 1993)
.
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
3 .
Many of NORA's members operate in or through Illinois, and are very interested
in the application of the Board's rules concerning the transportation of used oil in
this state .
4 .
NORA exists and acts only due to the concurrence of group members who have
common interests in the promotion of environmentally safe, practical and cost
effective regulations for the transportation and recycling of used oil and other
liquids .
5
.
NORA has appeared before this Board, and in other states, and before the USEPA
and Congress regarding matters related to the recycling of used oil
.
6 .
The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency is aware of NORA's filing of this
proposal, and has participated in its development
.
7
.
Because of the nature of NORA, and its status as a member organization, NORA
seeks to waive the requirement for signature
.
To require an organization like
NORA to obtain signatures would present an added expense to NORA, and is
burdensome and unnecessary
.
8 .
The Board has a long-standing practice of granting a signature waiver request to
various trade associations similarly situated to NORA, such as the Sierra Club, the
Illinois Association of Wastewater Agencies, and the Illinois Environmental
Regulatory Association
.
WHEREFORE, NORA moves the Board to waive the signature requirement for its proposed
clarifying regulatory amendments .

PROPOSED RULE AND STATEMENT OF REASONS
The NORA, An Association of Responsible Recyclers ("NORA"), by its attorney
Claire A. Manning, Brown Hay & Stephens, LLP., and pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code
102.200, submits this Proposed Rule and Statement of Reasons in support of its proposal
to revise the Illinois Pollution Control Board (the Board) special waste regulations as they
relate to the used oil recycling industry in Illinois
.
EXISTING REGULATIONS
Used oil occupies a special place in state and federal statutes and regulations,
largely because government environmental policies have sought to encourage recycling of
used oil as a prudent alternative to disposal . NORA (formerly, the National Oil Recycling
Association) is a trade association comprised of more than 200 companies providing used
oil collection and recycling services throughout the entire United States, including Illinois
and the surrounding states . Founded in 1984, NORA was actively involved in the creation
of the federal rules governing the management and transportation of used oil, found at 40
CFR 279, which were promulgated in 1985 and 1992 and which the Board adopted as
Illinois regulations in 1993, via its Identical in Substance rulemaking authority. See R93-

35 . 111. Adm. Code, 808,809
)
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERKS OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
4 (September 23, 1993). Illinois' regulatory counterpart is found at 35 Ill. Adm. Code
739 .
Most states have adopted the federal used oil recycling rules (40 CFR Part 279) as
the sole regulatory requirements governing the management of used oil . Since Illinois
adopted its used oil rules pursuant to its "identical-in-substance" rulemaking authority,
Part 739 should minor 40 CFR 279. However, prior to the Board's promulgation of Part
739, Illinois had established special waste rules, particular provisions of which the
Agency applied to the used oil recycling industry. Thus, despite the intended "identical"
nature of these rules, the linkage to the existing waste rules has created unique
requirements (such as manifesting of used oil during transportation) not set forth in the
federal used oil rules .
II .
STATEMENT OF REASONS
NORA members believe that Illinois' additional regulatory treatment of used oil as
a special waste, with the corresponding manifesting and special waste hauling
requirements, is not consistent with that goal of making Illinois' program identical to the
federally designed program . Such requirements make it unduly burdensome to do
business in Illinois. NORA members that collect used oil in Illinois have formed a special
workgroup for purposes of proposing this rule to the Board, and will be available to testify
in its support .
NORA brought these concerns to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
(the Agency) and, for the last several months, has been engaged in constructive
discussions with the goal of making Illinois' used oil program mirror the federal program
.
NORA believes that the Agency shares the goal of making the Illinois program
2
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
substantially equivalent to the federal program and, accordingly, has agreed to eliminate
the special waste hauling and manifesting requirements imposed on used oil as defined
and managed under Part 739
.
Toward that end, NORA and the Agency have reached
substantial agreement on the specific changes that will be necessary to the Illinois special
waste rules to achieve that result
.
III
. PROPOSED REGULATORY CHANGES
These proposed amendments seek to decouple the special waste requirements
(particularly manifesting and hauling permitting) from the used oil requirements found at
Part 739. While NORA maintains that the current regulatory scheme can be interpreted so
that these special waste requirements do not apply to used oil, NORA believes that the
proposed regulatory changes are necessary in order to unambiguously achieve this result
.
To achieve the clarity NORA seeks, changes will need to be made to the following
provisions of the Board's special waste rules :
35 III. Adm. Code 808.121 (Generator
Obligations); 35 III. Adm. Code 809.211 (exemptions for Nonhazardous Special Waste
Transporters); 35 III. Adm. Code 809 .301 (Requirements for Delivery of Nonhazardous
Special Waste to Transporters) ; 35 Ill. Adm. Code 809.302 (Requirements for Acceptance
of Nonhazardous Special or Hazardous Waste from Transporters) ; 35 Ill. Adm. Code 501
(Manifests, Records, Access to Records, Reporting Requirements and Forms)
.
Specifically, each of the above-referenced sections would be changed as follows
:
Section 808.121
Generator Obligations
a)
Each person who generates waste shall determine whether the waste is a
special waste .
BOARD NOTE: 35 Ill. Adm. Code 722 requires the person to also
determine if the waste is a hazardous waste
.
3
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
b)
No person shall deliver special waste to a transporter unless the waste is
accompanied by a manifest as specified in Section 808 .122, and the
transporter has a special waste hauling permit issued pursuant to 35 III
.
Adm. Code 809. The following are exceptions to this prohibition :
I)
The person is subject to the small quantity generator exemption of
Section 808.123 .
2)
The transporter and waste are subject to a transporter exemption
under 35 Ill. Adm. Code 809.211
.
3)
The Agency has determined pursuant to this Part that the waste is
not a special waste .
4)
The waste consists of municipal water or wastewater treatment
plant sludge regulated under a sludge management plan approved
by the Agency pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 309.208
.
5) Used oil as defined by or managed pursuant to 35 111 : Adm. Code
739 .
c)
No person shall cause, threaten or allow the treatment, storage or disposal
of special waste in Illinois except :
I)
At a facility permitted or otherwise authorized to manage the
special waste pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 703 or 807 (Sections
21(d) and (e) of the Act) ; or
2)
At a facility owned and operated by such person and subject to the
on-site disposal exemption of Section 21(d) of the Act (Section
21(d) of the Act)
.
d)
No person shall deliver special waste to a transporter or a permitted facility
without a supplemental wastestream permit
.
e)
No person shall deliver to a transporter or permitted facility special waste
with a wastestream identification number unless the waste conforms with
the wastestream description in the wastestream classification
determination .

SUBPART A : GENERAL PROVISIONS
Section 808.100
Purpose, Scope and Applicability
a)
This Part provides a means by which persons may obtain a classification
or declassification of special (non-Resources Conservation and Recovery
Act (RCRA) (42 U.S.C. 6901 et seq .) waste as defined in Section
808.110, based on the degree of hazard of the waste or other
characteristics, to assure that the waste receives appropriate handling
.
This Part does not apply to materials which are not special wastes as
defined by the Act
.
b)
This Part allows any person generating such special waste to request
waste classification and prescribes procedures by which applicants may
supply detailed information in order to establish the appropriate waste
classification. For the purposes of this Part, the term "classification"
includes declassification . Waste which has been declassified shall not be
deemed special waste until further action to the contrary by the Agency
pursuant to this Part .
c) Special wastes that are declassified pursuant to this Part are not subject
to any of the special waste hauling, disposal and reporting requirements
of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 809, but are still subject to other Parts of 35 Ill
.
Adm. Code: Subtitle G which govern the transport, treatment, storage
and hauling of non-special wastes
.
Section 808.101
Transitional Rule
Wastestreams which have been declassified by the Agency pursuant to Section 22
.9(c)
of the Act prior to the effective date of these rules shall remain declassified for a period
of not more than two years following the effective date of these rules, unless extended
by the Board in a variance proceeding . In order to accommodate its workload, the
Agency may, by giving not less than 180 days' prior written notice, require generators
to make reapplication by a date certain within this two year time period . The Agency
may extend this reapplication deadline for a period of not more than an additional 180
days, but in no event may the Agency extend the deadline to a date more than two
years following the effective date of this Part . Upon application before the deadline,
such wastestreams shall remain declassified during the pendency of any Agency
determination or any appeal to the Board of such determination made pursuant to
Section 22 .9(e) of the Act . As provided in Section 808 .241, all special (non-RCRA)
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
wastes shall be deemed Class A special wastes unless a contrary determination has been
made pursuant to this Part
.
Section 808. 110 Definitions
"Act" means the Environmental Protection Act (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1989,
ch. 111 1/2, pars . 1001 et seq.)
.
"Agency" means the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
.
"Board" means the Illinois Pollution Control Board
.
"Carcinogen" means a chemical, or complex mixture of closely related
chemicals, which has been determined in accordance with USEPA
Guidelines for Carcinogenic Risk Assessment, incorporated by reference
at Section 808 . 111, to have either sufficient or limited human evidence
or sufficient animal evidence supporting a causal association between
exposure to the chemical and an increase in incidence of benign or
malignant neoplasms or substantial decrease in the latancy period
between exposure and onset of neoplasms
.
"Declassified waste" means a waste which has been determined pursuant
to Section 808 .245 to not be a special waste
.
"Degree of hazard" is determined pursuant to Section 808 .245
.
"Hazardous waste" or "RCRA hazardous waste" is as defined in 35 111
.
Adm. Code 721 .
"LC50" means that concentration of a substance administered to test
organisms that is lethal to 50 percent of a population of exposed
organisms in a given time period . "Inhalation rat" means that the
substance is administered by inhalation and the test organisms are
laboratory rats . "Aquatic toxicity" means that the substance is
administered in water to specified free-swimming test organisms
.
"LD50" means that dose of a substance administered to test organisms
that is lethal to 50 percent of a population of exposed organisms in a
given time period. "LD50oral rat" or "oral rat" means that dose of a
substance, administered orally, that is lethal to 50 percent of a
population of exposed rats in a given time period
.
"Mutagen" means a chemical, or complex mixture of closely related
chemicals or ionizing radiation which has been determined, in
accordance with USEPA Guidelines for Mutagenic Risk Assessment,
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
incorporated by reference at Section 808 .111, to have sufficient evidence
supporting a causal association between exposure to the chemical and
point mutations (i .e., submicroscopic changes in the base sequence of
DNA) or structural or numerical chromosome aberrations . Structural
aberrations include deficiencies, duplications, insertions, inversions, and
translocations, whereas numerical aberrations are gains or losses of
whole chromosomes (e.g., trisomy, monosomy) or sets of chromosomes
(haploidy, polyploidy)
.
"Special handling waste" is a declassified waste which, due to its form
and mode of containment in transport or storage, presents a danger to a
person handling the waste such that the person needs information about
the waste to safely transport or store the waste. "Special handling
waste" includes any such waste which would pose a danger if handled in
a manner similar to household waste. "Dangers" include, but are not
limited to, the following: fire, explosion, and emission of toxic or
carcinogenic gas or dust . "Special handling waste" also includes any
special waste which, because of appearance or packaging, resembles
waste which would be a special handling waste. Such waste includes,
but is not limited to, any special waste contained in a sealed drum .
Irrespective of its degree of hazard ranking under Section 808.245, a
special handling waste is a special waste
.
BOARD NOTE: Section 808.245(d) provides that special handling
waste which would otherwise be declassified is at least a Type B special
waste
"Special (non-RCRA) waste" is any special waste that is not hazardous
waste as defined in this Section
.
"Special waste" means any hazardous waste, and any industrial process
waste or pollution control waste which has not been declassified
pursuant to Section 808 .245 . (Section 3 .45 of the Act.)
Board Note : The definition of "hazardous waste" at Section 3 .15 of the
Act differs from the definition of the same term as used in this Part . The
Board intends that the Section 3 .15 definition apply to this Part only for
the purposes of this definition of special waste . The Board intends that
the definition given in this Section apply to all other appearances for the
term "hazardous waste" throughout this Part
.
"TC50" means that dose of a substance administered to test organisms
that produces toxic effects in 50 percent of a population of exposed
organisms in a given time period. "TD50oral rat" means that the test
organisms are laboratory rats

SUBPART B: CLASSES OF SPECIAL WASTE
Section 808.240
Special Waste Classes
a)
This Subpart contains rules for the classification and declassification of
special (non-RCRA) wastes . There are two classes of such special
wastes, "Class A" and "Class B ." Wastes which are declassified
pursuant to Section 808.245 of this Part shall no longer be considered
special wastes
.
b)
"Class A" special wastes are those special (non-RCRA) wastes which the
Agency has not determined, pursuant to this Part, to be a Class B special
waste. "Class B" special wastes are those special (non-RCRA) wastes
which the Agency determines, pursuant to Section 808.245, pose a low
or moderate degree of hazard to the environment or the public health in
the course of their transportation, storage, treatment or disposal
.
c)
This Subpart should be read in conjunction with the flowchart in
Appendix A. The flowchart is employed by answering the queries in
order, beginning from the top, and following the lines corresponding to
the appropriate responses down the chart until the waste is classified
.
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERKS OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
The Sections of this Subpart are so arranged on that flowchart that the
first Section on the chart which assigns a waste classification to the
waste controls
.
d)
Subpart D contains procedures by which a person may request that the
Agency assign a special wastestream to a class
.
e)
Subpart H contains waste classifications based on source or
characteristics to which specific wastestreams have been assigned
.
Section 808.241
Default Classification of Special Wastes
Any special (non-RCRA) waste is a Class A special waste unless and until the Agency
determines otherwise pursuant to this Part .
Section 808.242
Special Handling Waste
The Agency may determine that a waste which is declassifiable pursuant to Section
808.245(d) is a special handling waste . Any such waste shall be so identified by the
Agency, together with appropriate conditions on its form and mode of containment in
transport or storage . A declassifiable waste which is determined to be a special
handling waste is a Class B special waste
.
BOARD NOTE: This rule sets the special handling flag . A special handling waste will
require manifesting, regardless of the toxic score under Section 808 .245, to protect the
waste hauler, the treatment or disposal operator and their employees
.
Section 808.243
Wastes Categorized by Source
a)
Subpart H defines certain categories of wastes, based on the type of
source or generator, and assigns them to classes
.
b)
A waste which meets the criteria for inclusion within a category based
on the type of source or generator, is a special waste the of class
specified for that category .
Section 808.244
Wastes Categorized by Characteristics
a)
Subpart H defines certain categories of waste based on their
characteristics, and assigns them to classes
.
b)
A waste which meets the criteria for inclusion within a category based
on its characteristics is a special waste of the class specified for that
category
.
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERKS OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
Section 808.245
Classification of Wastes
Special wastes which are subject to this Subpart shall be classified or declassified based
on toxic score as follows :
a)
Compute the toxic score for the wastestream pursuant to Appendix B or,
where applicable, pursuant to Section 808 .431, utilizing a data base
which meets the standards of Section 808.302. However, if use of
Appendix B or Section 808.431 is demonstrated to the Agency to be
inapplicable or unavailable for the wastestream, the generator may
employ a bioassay procedure approved by the Agency pursuant to
Section 808.302, solely for the purpose of determining if the waste in its
undiluted form results in no behavioral response from the exposed test
organisms and, thus, warrants a toxic score of 0 (zero) . Where
applicable, the toxic score shall include the maximum volume of waste
to which such score applies
.
b)
Except as authorized under subsection (e), a wastestream receiving a
toxic score of 3 shall be deemed a Class A special waste
.
c)
Except as authorized under subsection (e), a wastestream receiving a
toxic score of 1 or 2 shall be deemed a Class B special waste ; however,
such waste shall be deemed a Class A special waste if the Agency
determines that it exhibits one or more of the following characteristics
:
1)
The physical form of the waste renders it difficult to manage in
transport, storage or handling prior to final disposition, or in a
landfill (Examples of wastes possessing such form are wastes
containing free liquids, and wastes in finely divided form which
are susceptible to airborne dispersal .) ;
2)
The chemical properties of the waste, if exposed to the
atmosphere or to an aqueous environment, render it difficult to
manage in the event of a leak, spill or other loss of containment
during transport, storage or handling prior to final disposition, or
in a landfill (Examples of wastes possessing such properties are
wastes which produce noxious or toxic fumes or gases in
sufficient concentration and quantity to pose a threat to the public
health or the environment, wastes which are ignitable or
flammable, wastes which are readily soluble in water, and wastes
which are highly mobile in an aqueous environment, including in
groundwater.); or
3)
The unstable nature of the waste renders it difficult to contain
during transport, storage or handling prior to final disposition, or
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
in a landfill (Examples of wastes possessing such an unstable
nature are wastes which are corrosive or reactive, and any other
wastes which, under foreseeable conditions, may cause the
premature failure of waste containment devices and structures
.)
.
d)
A wastestream receiving a toxic score of 0 shall be declassified, except
that such a waste that is determined by the Agency to be a special
handling waste shall be deemed a Class B special waste
e)
Notwithstanding a wastestream's toxic score, the Agency may condition
a lowered classification or a declassification of a special waste under this
Section. Such conditions imposed by the Agency shall be limited to
measures by which the generator shall, by particular modes or forms of
containment or treatment, assure that the dangerous characteristics of the
wastes are avoided or reduced . (Examples of such measures are
neutralization of acidic wastes prior to shipment, containment or
encapsulation of finely divided wastes, and treatment of ignitable wastes
so as to preclude ignition.) However, under no circumstances shall a
wastestream with a toxic score of 3 be declassified based solely upon its
mode of containment
.
f)
All conditions or limitations imposed by the Agency that relate to the
toxic score (including, where applicable, maximum wastestream volume)
and classification or declassification of a wastestream shall be specified
in the Agency's determination
.

contact with products and materials produced by the process or in
storage, including end products and impurities
;
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERKS OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
2)
The analysis must include all constituents which will react with
each other under the process conditions
;
3)
If available, the analysis must use the Chemical Abstracts Service
(CAS) name and number for each constituent, or a name from the
list of common names pursuant to Section 808.412. Otherwise,
if the CAS name and number and such a common name is not
available for the constituent, the person requesting classification
may provide a name and complete description of the constituent;
4)
The analysis shall include a list of major constituents and
concentrations which accounts for at least 99% percent of the
mass of the waste. The list may include an entry for "other" or
"unknown" if significant trace constituents have been identified
as provided in subsection (c)(5)
.
The analysis shall list major
constituents of the waste rounded to the nearest tenth of a
percent, and shall be supported by a mass balance
;
5)
Significant trace constituents . The generator shall include a list
and the concentration of all significant trace constituents, as
defined in Section 808.411; and
6) The analysis shall identify all such major constituents and
significant trace constituents listed in 35 Ill . Adm. Code
721 .Appendix H
.
d)
The analysis must report the average concentration or mass percentage

Which is present at a mass concentration of less than 1 percent ; and
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
b)
Which has a toxicity, BiTi, as determined in Appendix B, of less than
500 mg/1
.
Section 808.412
Common Names
The Agency shall utilize common names, together with a description of each, for
constituents not amenable to chemical nomenclature
.
BOARD NOTE: The purpose of this provision is to promote greater consistency in the
naming of constituents. The Agency may use this mechanism to assign common names
to constituents. Such names include: Sand, water, wood, foodstuff, etc. In addition,
this mechanism can be used to assign a name and toxicological properties to complex
mixtures after these have been determined for a wastestream or a type of waste-
generating process
.
Section 808.413 Wastestream Description
a)
The wastestream description must include the following
:
1) The name of the generator, if other than the original generator,
identified in the application for waste classification pursuant to
Section 808.402(a)(1) ;
2)
The name of the wastestream, as assigned by the Agency
pursuant to Section 808 .412, or as assigned by the generator, if
no name has been assigned by the Agency ;
3)
A general description of the activity, production process or
treatment process which gives rise to the waste
;
4)
A general description of the physical and chemical properties of
the wastestream; including its anticipated annual volume
.
BOARD NOTE: This description may be summary and narrative
;
detailed description of physical and chemical properties of the
wastestream is governed by Section 808.410 .
b)
The wastestream description may include a description of a range of
physical and chemical properties of the wastestream, based on physical
and chemical analysis pursuant to Section 808 .410, that are associated
with periodic, occasional or anticipated changes in the process which
produces the waste (e .g., changes in materials used as coatings, bonding
agents or solvents) .
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERKS OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
BOARD NOTE: The wastestream description differs from the waste
analysis required pursuant to Section 808 .410. The wastestream
description should describe the waste which the applicant wishes to have
classified, which may not be exactly what the applicant presently
produces. The waste which is subjected to analysis must fit within the
wastestream description, but need not be identical to all variations of it .
To avoid having to necessarily repeat the waste classification process,
the applicant should request classification of a broadly-defined and
characterized wastestream, so as to cover any periodic, occasional or
anticipated modification to the waste properties . However, this will tend
to increase the degree of hazard ranking of the wastestream .
Section 808.420 Quality Assurance Plan
A quality assurance plan shall detail steps which the generator will take to ensure that
the waste conforms with the wastestream description .
a)
The plan must include employee orientation measures, such as the
following
:
1)
Assignment of responsibility for assuring compliance ;
2)
Employee training ;
3)
Work rules
;
4)
Posting of signs; and
5)
Positioning of waste receptacles
.
b)
The plan must include periodic and random inspection, sampling and
analysis of the wastestream to ensure that it conforms with the
wastestream description . The plan must be designed so that there is at
least a 95 percent probability that loads meet the wastestream
description. The plan may specify measures to be taken to account for
variables in the properties by the wastestream, so as to prevent false
negatives
.
BOARD NOTE: The applicant should use statistical quality control to
devise a plan with an inspection schedule which meets the above
standard based on the properties and variability of the wastestream
.
c)
The plan may provide for inspection, sampling and analysis by the
permitted facility which receives the waste . If so, the plan must include
a written agreement by the receiving facility that explicitly details what
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERKS OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
actions the receiving facility will undertake to fulfill the requirements of
this Section
.
BOARD NOTE : The permitted facility is required by permit and 35 Ill
.
Adm. Code 811 to inspect, sample and analyze the wastes it receives
.
This is distinct from similar activities undertaken by contract on behalf
of the generator pursuant to this Section
.
Section 808.430 Degree of Hazard Data
a)
The applicant shall submit its degree of hazard prediction, including the
estimated toxic score and the information or data used to calculate the
prediction, with the application .
BOARD NOTE: The applicant may include the results of a degree of
hazard prediction performed by a computer program
.
b)
The Agency may request additional data, if necessary to assign the waste
to a class and the application contains inadequate information to
determine the degree of hazard of the waste
.
BOARD NOTE: If the Agency requests data, the request may include a
computer-generated result of an attempt to perform the degree of hazard
prediction, together with a specific request for needed data
.
c)
Degree of hazard data shall include sufficient information to classify the
waste pursuant to Section 808.245. In addition to the information
normally obtained by the physical and chemical analysis required by
Section 808.410, the degree of hazard data shall include, but not be
limited to, the following with respect to each constituent
:
1)
Toxicity ;
2)
n-Octanol/water partition coefficient
;
3)
Persistence, measured as the half-life in days; and
4)
Solubility in water, in parts per million on a weight basis
.
Section 808.431
Toxicological Testing
a)
Except as otherwise authorized by Section 808 .245(a), the Agency shall
request that the applicant perform toxicological testing of components or
of the waste pursuant to Appendix B of this Part, if a toxic score
determination is necessary to assign the waste to a class and there is
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERKS OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
inadequate information in the Agency's data base to determine the toxic
score .
b)
The applicant shall elect to include the results of toxicological testing of
either the components of the waste or the waste itself .
c)
Testing required under subsection (a) shall be to determine an LD 50oral
rat. The Agency shall approve alternative toxicological testing if the
applicant demonstrates that an LD50 - oral rat cannot be measured or is
otherwise inappropriate . The applicant shall document the relation of
the alternative test to an LD 50 - oral rat .
SUBPART E: REVIEW OF CLASSIFICATION REQUESTS
Section 808.501
Order of Requesting Information
a)
If possible, the Agency shall categorize the wastestream without
requesting or using degree of hazard data pursuant to Section 808 .430 .
However, nothing herein shall preclude the Agency from requesting or
using degree of hazard data to confirm the characteristics of the waste
.
BOARD NOTE: For example, if the waste is a categorical waste, it
should be assigned to the type for that category without resort to degree
of hazard data .
b)
If, after requesting and receiving degree of hazard data pursuant to
Section 808.430, the Agency still cannot determine the degree of hazard,
the Agency shall request toxicological testing pursuant to Section
808.431
.
Section 808.502
Completeness
a)
An incomplete application is one which, together with the Agency's
database, has insufficient information to classify the waste
.
b)
If the Agency determines that an application is incomplete, it shall
classify the waste as a Class A special waste, unless the Agency
determines, based on such information as is available, that the waste is a
RCRA hazardous waste pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 721 .
SUBPART F: WASTESTREAM CLASSIFICATION DETERMINATIONS
Section 808.520
Time for Agency Action
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERKS OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005

Section 808. APPENDIX B Toxicity Hazard
This Appendix describes the method by which a generator of special waste or the waste
source shall determine the toxic score for a waste
.
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
a)
The wastestream equivalent toxic concentration (Ceq) is calculated as
follows
:
Ceq = A * SUM(Ci / Bi * Ti)
where :
1)
SUM means the sum of the results of the calculation in
parentheses for each component of the wastestream ;
2)
Ci is the concentration of component i as a percent of the waste
by weight
;
3)
Ti is a measure of the toxicity of component i, as provided in
subsection (h)
;
4)
A is a constant equal to 300 ; and
BOARD NOTE: A is a constant used to allow the entry of
percent values for Ci, and to adjust the results so that a reference
material, 100 percent copper sulfate, with an oral toxicity of 300
mg/kg, achieves an equivalent toxic concentration of 100
.
5)
Bi is a conversion factor used to convert the toxicity of
component i (Ti) to an equivalent oral toxicity . Bi is determined
from subsection (i)
.
b)
The toxic amount (M) is calculated as follows
:
M=S*Ceq
where
:
1)
S is the maximum size of a wastestream shipment in kg/month
(Such maximum size shall be specified as a condition of the
wastestream classification .); and
2)
Ceq is the equivalent concentration from subsection (a)
.
c)
The toxic score is calculated as follows :
1)
If the toxic amount (M) is less than 100, the toxic score is 0
.
2)
If the toxic amount is greater than or equal to 100 and less than
1000,. the toxic score is 1
.
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
3)
If the toxic amount is greater than or equal to 1000 and less than
10,000, the toxic score is 2
.
4)
If the toxic amount is greater than or equal to 10,000, the toxic
score is 3
.
BOARD NOTE: 100 kg/month of the reference material, 100
percent copper sulfate, has a "toxic amount" of 10,000, defining
the borderline between a "toxic score" of 2 or 3 for a small
quantity generator .
d)
The toxic score shall be used as follows
:
1)
If the toxic score is 0 or 3, the toxic score shall be used for the
purposes of Section 808.245 without adjustment
.
2)
If the toxic score is 1 or 2, the toxic score shall be adjusted based
on environmental fate, pursuant to subsections (e), (f) and (g)
.
e)
The environmental fate score (F) is calculated as follows
:
F = SUM(Ci * Li)
where :
1)
SUM means the sum of the results of the calculation in
parentheses for each component of the wastestream
;
2)
Ci is the concentration of component i as a percent of the waste
by weight; and
3)
Li is the environmental level of component i, as determined by
subsection (j)
.
f)
The toxic score is adjusted as follows
:
1)
If the environmental fate score (F) is less than 100, subtract 1
from the toxic score ;
2)
If the environmental fate score is greater than or equal to 100 and
less than 200, the toxic score is not modified ;
3)
If the environmental fate score is greater than or equal to 200,
add 1 to the toxic score
.
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
Use the toxic score or adjusted toxic score calculated pursuant to
subsections (b) through (f) for the purposes of Section 808 .245
.
g)
h)
Sources of toxicity data .
1)
The generator is required to provide information to substantiate
that any waste is other than a type A waste
.
2)
Carcinogens and mutagens . If available, use a TD50 oral rat to
represent toxicity based on carcinogenicity and mutagenicity .
Otherwise
:
A)
Carcinogens are assigned a Ti of 0.1 mg/kg; and
B)
Mutagens are assigned a Ti of 0.6 mg/kg
.
3)
Toxicity values shall be selected according to the following
criteria
:
A)
Toxicities are converted to equivalent oral toxicities as
specified in subsection (i) ;
B)
Toxicity values are ranked by source according to the
following priorities, with the sources listed in descending
order of priority
.
i)
First oral rat; then inhalation rat; then dermal
rabbit ; then aquatic toxicity .
ii)
If data from the bases is unavailable, then other
mammalian toxicity values
;
C)
If there is more than one toxicity value for the toxicity
from the highest priority available source, the lowest
(most toxic) equivalent oral toxicity value is used
.
i)
Conversion factors for equivalent oral toxicities . The following
conversion factors must be used to convert toxicity values to equivalent
oral toxicities (Bi) (If a carcinogen or mutagen is assigned a value for Ti
in the absence of a TD50 , Bi is assigned a value of 1 .) :

its base state must pay a $250 processing and audit fee for administering the uniform
registration and permit program as set forth in Section 22 .2 of the Act
.
(Source: Added at 23 Ill. Reg. 6842, effective July 1, 1999)
Section 809.914
Payment of Apportioned Mile Fees
a)
Beginning July 1, 1998, and annually thereafter, all transporters whose
base state is Illinois shall pay registration fees to the Agency for
apportioned miles for all states that are participating in the uniform
registration program and in which the transporter hauls hazardous waste
.
The Agency shall transmit to other participating states the registration fees
collected each calendar quarter on behalf of the other participating states
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
within 30 days after the last day of the calendar quarter. A transmittal
report will accompany each payment and will summarize the fees collected
and list the transporters from which the fees were collected . The level of
hazardous material transportation activity within a state should be
calculated using the instructions in the uniform application and should be
based on two factors :
1)
The percentage of mileage in the state ; and
2)
The percentage of the transporter's total activity that involves the
transport of hazardous wastes
.
b)
For Illinois, the registration fee should be calculated by multiplying the
percentage of Illinois transportation by the percentage of hazardous waste
transportation multiplied by the total number of vehicles the transporter
operates multiplied by the $20 registration fee set forth in Section 22.2 of
the Act .
c)
A transporter should determine its percentage of Illinois transportation by
dividing the number of miles it traveled in Illinois during the previous year
by the number of miles it traveled nationwide during the previous year . If
a transporter operates only in Illinois, it should use 100 percent of the
miles traveled as its percentage of Illinois transportation. A transporter
may separately calculate fees payable for each fleet the transporter
operates
.
d)
A transporter shall determine its percentage of hazardous waste
transportation by using a method based on general percentage ranges . A
transporter shall determine its percentage of hazardous waste
transportation as follows :
1)
For less-than-truckload shipments, the transporter should divide
the weight of the transporter's hazardous waste shipments
transported during the previous year by the total weight of all
shipments transported during the previous year
.
2)
For the truckload shipments, the transporter should divide the
number of shipments transported during the previous year for
which placarding, marking, or manifesting was required by the
Code of Federal Regulations, Title 49, Part 172, by the total
number of all shipments transported during the previous year
.
3)
A transporter that transports both truckload and less-than-truckload
shipments of hazardous waste should determine its percentage of
hazardous waste transportation by calculating the percentage of
ELECTRONIC FILING, RECEIVED, CLERK'S OFFICE, DECEMBER 13, 2005
business that is hazardous waste transportation on a proportional
basis with the percentage of business that is not hazardous waste
transportation .
4)
A transporter may use data from its most recent complete fiscal
year or the most recent complete calendar year in calculating the
percentages required in this Subpart for transportation conducted
during the previous year. If the applicant elects to change the
reporting year in a subsequent application, the applicant must
inform the Agency of its intention in writing
.

809.104, the Act, and Sections 809 .913 and 809.914 of this Part
.
a)
The transporter must attach or enclose with the application a certified
check, cashier's check or money order payable to the Treasurer, State of
Illinois in the appropriate amount
.
b)
When an application is denied, any fees submitted with the application
will be non-refundable. Any subsequent re-filing of the application will be
considered a new application for which an application fee must be
included in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section
.
c)
When the Agency rejects an application because it is incomplete, any fees
submitted will be non-refundable. The applicant can receive credit for the
payment with a resubmitted application if the resubmittal is complete and
returned to the Agency within 30 days after the initial date-stamped
rejection .

and whose base state is Illinois shall submit uniform registration and
permit applications to the Agency and should apply 90 days in advance of
the expiration date of their current permit . If the Agency cannot timely
review the uniform registration and permit applications within 90 days, the
current Illinois Special Waste Transportation permit will be extended by
operation of law for 30 days, or until the Agency takes final action on its
applications, whichever occurs first. However, if the transporter fails to
submit its new uniform registration and uniform permit applications 90
days in advance of the expiration of the current permit, the current Illinois
Special Waste Transporter permit will expire on the expiration date
indicated in the permit
.
c)
