POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD
NOTICE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
The USEPA action of October 13, 2005 (70 Fed . Reg
. 59848) established the Cross-
Media Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR) . The CROMERR sets standards for the
filing of documents in various federal program areas in an electronic format
. While the
CROMERR does not require the filing of documents in an electronic format, it does
impose minimum requirements on documents that are filed in such a format and on the
electronic document receiving systems used to receive them . The CROMERR imposes
requirements on electronic filings submitted to USEPA and on USEPA's Central Data
Exchange (CDX) that receives them, as well as on any electronic document filings
submitted to the states and any systems used by the states to receive those filings .
Tables appear in the Board's opinion and order of July 20, 2006 in docket R06-15 that list
numerous corrections and amendments that are not based on current federal amendments .
The tables contain deviations from the literal text of the federal amendments underlying
these amendments, as well as corrections and clarifications that the Board made in the
base text involved . Persons interested in the details of those corrections and amendments
should refer to the July 20, 2006 opinion and order in docket R06-15 .
Section 17.5 of the Environmental Protection Act [415 ILCS 5/17 .5] provides that
Section 5-35 of the Administrative Procedure Act [5 ILCS 100/5-35] does not apply to
this rulemaking . Because this rulemaking is not subject to Section 5-35 of the APA, it is
not subject to First Notice or to Second Notice review by the Joint Committee on
Administrative Rules (JCAR).

.102 is the centralized location of all incorporations of documents used
for the purposes of compliance with all of Part 611
. The amendments update all citations
to the Code of Federal Regulations
to the latest edition available, although those updates
do not necessarily incorporate the cited federal regulations
. Second, the amendments add
incorporations of segments of the Code of Federal Regulations
that embody key elements

 
ILLINOIS REGISTER
POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD
NOTICE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
of the federal CROMERR requirements . Third, the amendments remove the
incorporation by reference of appendix C to 40 C .F.R. 136, since this document is not
referenced in any substantive segment of the rules . The amendments also update the
version of appendix B to 40 C .F .R
. 136 incorporated by reference to the latest edition
available
. Finally, the amendments add to each incorporation by reference of a segment
of the Code of Federal Regulations
a citation to the segments of the Illinois regulations
for which the incorporation is made .

Section 611 .111
Relief Equivalent to SDWA Section 1415(a) Variances
This Section is intended to describe how the Board grants State relief equivalent to that available
from USEPA under section 1415(a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B) of the SDWA (42 USC 300g-4(a)(l)(A)
and (a)(1)(B))
. SDWA section 1415 variances do not require ultimate compliance within five
years in every situation . Variances under Sections 35-37 of the Act [415 ILCS 5/35-37] do
require compliance within five years in every case . Consequently, a PWS may have the option of
seeking State regulatory relief equivalent to a SDWA section 1415 variance through one of three
procedural mechanisms: a variance under Sections 35-37 of the Act [415 ILCS 5/35-37] and
Subpart B of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 104 ; a site-specific rule under Sections 27-28 of the Act [415
ILCS 5/27-28] and 35 111 . Adm. Code 102
; or an adjusted standard under Section 28 .1 of the Act
[415 ILCS 5/28
.1] and Subpart D of 35 Ill . Adm. Code 104.
a)
The Board will grant a PWS a variance, a site-specific rule, or an adjusted
standard from an MCL or a treatment technique pursuant to this Section .
1)
The PWS must file a petition pursuant to 35 Ill . Adm
. Code 102 or 104, as
applicable.
2)
If a State requirement does not have a federal counterpart, the Board may
grant relief from the State requirements without following this Section
.
b)
Relief from an MCL.
1)
As part of the justification for relief from an MCL under this Section, the
PWS must demonstrate the following:
A)
Because of characteristics of the raw water sources and alternative
sources that are reasonably available to the system, the PWS
cannot meet the MCL ; and
B)
The PWS will install or has installed the best available technology
(BAT) (as identified in Subpart F of this Part), treatment technique,
or other means that the Agency finds available
. BAT may vary
depending on the following :
i)
The number of persons served by the system
;
ii)
Physical conditions related to engineering feasibility
; and

POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD
NOTICE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
iii)
Costs of compliance ; and
C)
The variance will not result in an unreasonable risk to health .
2)
In any order granting relief under this subsection, the Board will prescribe
a schedule for the following :
A)
Compliance, including increments of progress, by the PWS, with
each MCL with respect to which the relief was granted ; and
B)
Implementation by the PWS of each additional control measure for
each MCL with respect to which the relief is granted, during the
period ending on the date compliance with such requirement is
required .
3)
Schedule of compliance for relief from an MCL.
A)
A schedule of compliance will require compliance with each MCL
with respect to which the relief was granted as expeditiously as
practicable .
B)
If the Board prescribes a schedule requiring compliance with an
MCL for which the relief is granted later than five years from the
date of issuance of the relief, the Board will do the following :
i)
Document its rationale for the extended compliance
schedule;
ii)
Discuss the rationale for the extended compliance schedule
in the required public notice and opportunity for public
hearing; and
iii)
Provide the shortest practicable time schedule feasible under
the circumstances .
c)
Relief from a treatment technique requirement

As part of the justification for relief from a treatment technique
requirement under this Section, the PWS must demonstrate that the
treatment technique is not necessary to protect the health of persons served
because of the nature of the raw water source .
2)
The Board may prescribe monitoring and other requirements as a
condition for relief from a treatment technique requirement .
d)
The Board will hold at least one public hearing . In addition the Board will accept
comments as appropriate pursuant to 35 Ill . Adm. Code 102 or 104
.
e)
The Board will not grant relief from any of the following:
1)
From the MCL for total coliforms . However, the Board may grant a
variance from the total coliform MCL of Section 611 .325 for PWSs that
prove that the violation of the total coliform MCL is due to persistent
growth of total coliform in the distribution system, rather than from fecal
or pathogenic contamination, from a treatment lapse or deficiency, or from
a problem in the operation or maintenance of the distribution system .
2)
From any of the treatment technique requirements of Subpart B of this
Part.
3)
From the residual disinfectant concentration (RDC) requirements of
Sections 611 .241(c) and 611 .242(b).
The Agency must promptly send USEPA the opinion and order of the Board
granting relief pursuant to this Section . The Board may reconsider and modify a
grant of relief, or relief conditions, if USEPA notifies the Board of a finding
pursuant to section 1415 of the SDWA (42 USC 300g-4) .
In addition to the requirements of this Section, the provisions of Section 611

Section 611 .212
Groundwater under Direct Influence of Surface Water
The Agency shall, pursuant to Section 611
.201, require all CWSs to demonstrate whether they
are using "groundwater under the direct influence of surface water_"
. The Agency must
determine with information provided by the supplier whether a PWS uses "groundwater under
the direct influence of surface water" on an individual basis . The Agency must determine that a
groundwater source is under the direct influence of surface water based upon the following
:
a)
Physical characteristics of the source : whether the source is obviously a surface
water source, such as a lake or stream
. Other sources that may be subject to
influence from surface waters include
: springs, infiltration galleries, wells, or
other collectors in subsurface aquifers.
b)
Well construction characteristics and geology with field evaluation .
1)
The Agency may use the wellhead protection program's requirements,
which include delineation of wellhead protection areas, assessment of
sources of contamination and implementation of management control
systems, to determine if the wellhead is under the influence of surface
water.
2)
Wells less than or equal to 50 feet in depth are likely to be under the
influence of surface water .
3)
Wells greater than 50 feet in depth are likely to be under the influence of
surface water, unless they include the following :
A)
A surface sanitary seal using bentonite clay, concrete, or similar
material,
B)
A well casing that penetrates consolidated (slowly permeable)
material ; and

 
ILLINOIS REGISTER
POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD
NOTICE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
C)
A well casing that is only perforated or screened below
consolidated (slowly permeable) material.
4)
A source that is less than 200 feet from any surface water is likely to be
under the influence of surface water .
c)
Any structural modifications to prevent the direct influence of surface water and
eliminate the potential for Giardia lamblia cyst contamination .
d)
Source water quality records . The following are indicative that a source is under
the influence of surface water :
1)
A record of total coliform or fecal coliform contamination in untreated
samples collected over the past three years ;
2)
A history ofturbidity problems associated with the source
; or
3)
A history of known or suspected outbreaks of Giardia lamblia,
Cryptosporidium or other pathogenic organisms associated with surface
water that has been attributed to that source .
e)
Significant and relatively rapid shifts in water characteristics such as turbidity,
temperature, conductivity, or pH
.
I)
A variation in turbidity of 0 .5 NTU or more over one year is indicative of
surface influence.
2)
A variation in temperature of 9-nine Fahrenheit degrees or more over one
year is indicative of surface influence.
f)
Significant and relatively rapid shifts in water characteristics such as turbidity,
temperature, conductivity, or pH that closely correlate to climatological or surface
water conditions are indicative of surface water influence
.
1)
Evidence of particulate matter associated with the surface water
; or
2)
Turbidity or temperature data that correlates to that of a nearby surface
water source .

 
g)

REQUIREMENTS
Section 611 .609
Determining Compliance
Compliance with the MCLs of Section 611 .300 or 611 .301 (as appropriate) must be determined
based on the analytical results obtained at each sampling point .
a)
For suppliers that monitor at a frequency greater than annual, compliance with the
MCLs for antimony, arsenic (effective January 22, 2004), asbestos, barium,
beryllium, cadmium, chromium, cyanide, fluoride, mercury, nickel, selenium, or
thallium is determined by a running annual average at each sampling point .
Effective January 22, 2004, if a system fails to collect the required number of
samples, compliance (average concentration) will be based on the total number of
samples collected .
1)
If the average at any sampling point is greater than the MCL, then the
supplier is out of compliance .
2)
If any one sample would cause the annual average to be exceeded, then the
supplier is out of compliance immediately .
3)
Any sample below the method detection limit must be calculated at zero
for the purpose of determining the annual average
.
BOARD NOTE : The "method detection limit" is different from the
"detection limit, " as set forth in Section 611 .600. The "method detection
limit" is the level of contaminant that can be determined by a particular
method with a 95 percent degree of confidence, as determined by the
method outlined in
appendix B to 40 CFR 136, Appendix B, incorporated
by reference at Section 611 .102
.
b)
For suppliers that monitor annually or less frequently, compliance with the MCLs
for antimony, arsenic (effective January 22, 2004), asbestos, barium, beryllium,
cadmium, chromium, cyanide, fluoride, mercury, nickel, selenium, or thallium is
determined by the level of the contaminant at any sampling point. If confirmation
samples are required by the Agency, the determination of compliance will be

based on the average of the annual average of the initial MCL exceedence and any
Agency-required confirmation samples . Effective January 22, 2004, if a supplier
fails to collect the required number of samples, compliance (average
concentration) will be based on the total number of samples collected .
c)
Compliance with the MCLs for nitrate and nitrite is determined based on one
sample if the levels of these contaminants are below the MCLs . If the levels of
nitrate or nitrite in the initial sample exceed the MCLs, Section 611 .606 requires
confirmation sampling, and compliance is determined based on the average of the
initial and confirmation samples .

a)
Definitions . As used in this Section the following have the given meanings
:
"Detect" and "detection" mean that the contaminant of interest is present
at a level greater than or equal to the "detection limit."
"Detection limit" means 0 .0005 mg/f.
BOARD NOTE : Derived from 40 CFR 141 .24(f)(7),
(f)(11), (f)(14)(i),
and (f)(20)-(200-3) (20051 . This is a "trigger level" for Phase I, Phase II,
and Phase V VOCs inasmuch as it prompts further action . The use of the
term "detect" in this Section is not intended to include any analytical
capability of quantifying lower levels of any contaminant, or the "method
detection limit ." Note, however, that certain language at the end of federal
paragraph (f)(20) is capable of meaning that the "method detection limit"
is used to derive the "detection limit ." The Board has chosen to disregard

that language at the end of paragraph (f)(20) in favor of the more direct
language of paragraphs (f)(7) and
(f)(11).
"Method detection limit," as used in subsections (q) and (t) of this Section
means the minimum concentration of a substance that can be measured
and reported with 99 percent confidence that the analyte concentration is
greater than zero and is determined from analysis of a sample in a given
matrix containing the analyte .

least one sample from each of the following points : each entry point that
is representative of each well after treatment .
2)
Sampling points for an SWS or mixed system supplier . Unless otherwise
provided by a SEP granted by the Agency pursuant to Section 611 .110, an
SWS or mixed system supplier must sample from each of the following
points:
A)
Each entry point after treatment; or
B)
Points in the distribution system that are representative of each
source.
3)
The supplier must take each sample at the same sampling point unless the
Agency has granted a SEP pursuant to Section 611
.110 that designates
another location as more representative of each source, treatment plant, or
within the distribution system .

611 .110(e) in granting a SEP from the requirements of subsection (d), (e), or (f) of
this Section sought pursuant to subsection (g) of this Section .
i)
A SEP issued to a GWS pursuant to subsection (g) of this Section is for a
maximum of six years, except that a SEP as to the subsection (d) of this Section
monitoring for 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene must apply only to the initial round of
monitoring. As a condition of a SEP, except as to a SEP from the initial round of
subsection (d) of this Section monitoring for 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene, the supplier
shall, within 30 months after the beginning of the period for which the waiver was
issued, reconfirm its vulnerability assessment required by subsection (h) of this
Section and submitted pursuant to subsection (g) of this Section, by taking one
sample at each sampling point and reapplying for a SEP pursuant to subsection (g)
of this Section. Based on this application, the Agency must do either of the
following :
1)
If it determines that the PWS meets the standard of Section 611 .610(e),
issue a SEP that reconfirms the prior SEP for the remaining three-year
compliance period of the six-year maximum term ; or
2)
Issue a new SEP requiring the supplier to sample annually .
BOARD NOTE
: Subsection (i) of this Section does not apply to an SWS or
mixed system supplier.
Special considerations for a SEP for an SWS or mixed-system supplier
.
1)
The Agency must determine that an SWS is not vulnerable before issuing
a SEP pursuant to Section 611 .110 to an SWS supplier. A SEP issued to
an SWS or mixed system supplier pursuant to subsection (g) of this
Section is for a maximum of one compliance period ; and
2)
The Agency may require, as a condition to a SEP issued to an SWS or
mixed supplier, that the supplier take such samples for Phase I, Phase II,
and Phase V VOCs at such a frequency as the Agency determines are
necessary, based on the vulnerability assessment .
BOARD NOTE : There is a great degree of similarity between 40 CFR
141 .24(f)(7) (20033) (2005), the provision applicable to GWSs, and 40 CFR
J)

NOTICE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
141 .24(f)(10) (2003) (2005), the provision for SWSs . The Board has consolidated
the common requirements of both paragraphs into subsection (g) of this Section
.
Subsection (j) of this Section represents the elements unique to an SWSs or mixed
system, and subsection (i) of this Section relates to a GWS supplier
. Although 40
CFR 141 .24(f)(7) and (f)(10) are silent as to a mixed system supplier, the Board
has included a mixed system supplier with an SWS supplier because this best
follows the federal scheme for all other contaminants.
k)
If one of the Phase I VOCs, excluding vinyl chloride ; a Phase II VOC ; or a Phase
V VOC is detected in any sample, then the following must occur :
1)
The supplier must monitor quarterly for that contaminant at each sampling
point that resulted in a detection .
2)
Annual monitoring.
A)
The Agency must grant a SEP pursuant to Section 611 .110 that
allows a supplier to reduce the monitoring frequency to annual at a
sampling point if it determines that the sampling point is reliably
and consistently below the MCL .
B)
A request for a SEP must include the following minimal
information
:
i)
For a GWS, two quarterly samples .
ii)
For an SWS or mixed system supplier, four quarterly
samples.
C)
In issuing a SEP, the Agency must specify the level of the
contaminant upon which the "reliably and consistently"
determination was based . Any SEP that allows less frequent
monitoring based on an Agency "reliably and consistently"
determination must include a condition requiring the supplier to
resume quarterly monitoring pursuant to subsection
(k)(1) of this
Section if it violates the MCL specified by Section 611
.311 .
3)
Suppliers that monitor annually must monitor during the quarters that
previously yielded the highest analytical result .

4)
Suppliers that do not detect a contaminant at a sampling point in three
consecutive annual samples may apply to the Agency for a SEP pursuant
to Section 611
.110 that allows it to discontinue monitoring for that
contaminant at that point, as specified in subsection (g) of this Section
.
5)
A GWS supplier that has detected one or more of the two-carbon
contaminants listed in subsection (k)(5)(A) of this Section must monitor
quarterly for vinyl chloride as described in subsection (k)(5)(B) of this
Section, subject to the limitation of subsection (k)(5)(C)
of this Section .
A)
"Two-carbon contaminants" (Phase I or II VOC) are the following :
1,2-Dichloroethane (Phase I)
1, 1 -Dichloroethylene (Phase I)
cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene (Phase II)
trans- l,2-Dichloroethylene (Phase II)
Tetrachloroethylene (Phase II)
1,1,1-Trichloroethylene (Phase I)
Trichloroethylene (Phase 1)
B)
The supplier must sample quarterly for vinyl chloride at each
sampling point at which it detected one or more of the two-carbon
contaminants listed in subsection
(k)(5)(A) of this Section
.
C)
The Agency must grant a SEP pursuant to Section 611
.110 that
allows the supplier to reduce the monitoring frequency for vinyl
chloride at any sampling point to once in each three-year
compliance period if it determines that the supplier has not
detected vinyl chloride in the first sample required by subsection
(k)(5)(B) of this Section .
1)
Quarterly monitoring following MCL violations .
1)
Suppliers that violate an MCL for one of the Phase I VOCs, including
vinyl chloride
; Phase II VOCs ; or Phase V VOCs, as determined by
subsection (o) of this Section, must monitor quarterly for that contaminant,
at the sampling point where the violation occurred, beginning the next
quarter after the violation .

m) Confirmation samples
. The Agency may issue a SEP pursuant to Section 610 .110
to require a supplier to use a confirmation sample for results that it finds dubious
for whatever reason . The Agency must state its reasons for issuing the SEP if the
SEP is Agency-initiated.
I)
If a supplier detects any of the Phase I, Phase II, or Phase V VOCs in a
sample, the supplier must take a confirmation sample as soon as possible,
but no later than 14 days after the supplier receives notice of the detection .
2)
Averaging is as specified in subsection (o) of this Section .

Compliance with the MCLs for the Phase I, Phase II, and Phase V VOCs must be
determined based on the analytical results obtained at each sampling point .
Effective January 22, 2004, if one sampling point is in violation of an MCL, the
system is in violation of the MCL
.
1)
Effective January 22, 2004, for a supplier that monitors more than once
per year, compliance with the MCL is determined by a running annual
average at each sampling point.
2)
Effective January 22, 2004, a supplier that monitors annually or less
frequently whose sample result exceeds the MCL must begin quarterly
sampling
. The system will not be considered in violation of the MCL until
it has completed one year of quarterly sampling .
3)
Effective January 22, 2004, if any sample result will cause the running
annual average to exceed the MCL at any sampling point, the supplier is
out of compliance with the MCL immediately.
4)
Effective January 22, 2004, if a supplier fails to collect the required
number of samples, compliance will be based on the total number of
samples collected .
5)
Effective January 22, 2004, if a sample result is less than the detection
limit, zero will be used to calculate the annual average .
6)
Until January 22, 2004, for a supplier that conducts monitoring at a
frequency greater than annual, compliance is determined by a running
annual average of all samples taken at each sampling point
.
A)
If the annual average of any sampling point is greater than the
MCL, then the supplier is out of compliance .
B) If the initial sample or a subsequent sample would cause the annual
average to exceed the MCL, then the supplier is out of compliance
immediately.
