PETITION FOR REVIEW OF ILLINOIS ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION AGENCY'S DECISION TO DENY
PETITIONER'S BUDGET FOR SITE INVESTIGATION ACTIVITIES
NOW COMES the Petitioner, WEBB & SONS, INC
. (hereinafter "Petitioner"),
by and through its attorney's, Harrington & Tock, and, pursuant to Sections 40 and 57
.7
of the Illinois Environmental Protection Act
("Act") (415 ILCS 5/40, 5/57
.7), and 35 Ill .
Admin
. Code Part 105, hereby requests review of the decision by the Respondent, Illinois
Environmental Protection Agency ("Agency"), to not approve as submitted the
Petitioner's budget for Stage 2 site investigation activities
. In support of this Petition, the
Petitioner states as follows :
1
. Petitioner is the owner of certain property located at 1201 DeWitt Avenue,
Mattoon, Illinois, hereinafter referred to as "the Site"
.
2. Petitioner is the owner of underground storage tanks ("USTs") formerly located at
the Site .
3
. Petitioner has submitted to the Agency its Site Investigation Stage 1 Completion
Report (the "Report") dated January 18, 2005 .
4. Part 5
.0 of that Report contained a description of future investigation needed to
delineate soil
and ground water contamination (Site Investigation
- stage 2) . A

 
true and accurate copy of part 5
.0 of the Report is attached hereto and made a part
hereof as Exhibit "A".
5
. In conjunction with the Report, Petitioner also submitted to the Agency a Site
Investigation - Stage 2 Budget
. A true and accurate copy of the Site Investigation
-
Stage 2 Budget is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit
"B".
6
. By letter dated February 8, 2005, the Agency approved the site investigation plan
-
stage 2 contained in part 5
.0 of the Report, but modified the proposed budget
(Exhibit "B").
The Agency made the following deductions from the budget :
(a) $1,500.00 for a professional survey from Other Costs as not eligible
; and,
(b) $17,610.00
from Personnel Costs for lack of supporting documentation
.
The Agency requested further justification of personnel costs . (The
Agency's letter is attached as Exhibit
"C".)
7. By letter dated February 15, 2005, Petitioner submitted justification of surveying
costs and a breakdown and justification of personnel costs
. (The Petitioner's
letter is attached as Exhibit "D".)
8
. By letter dated February 25, 2005, Petitioner submitted a request that the Agency
reconsider its decision to modify the budget as submitted by Petitioner and
approve the budget as proposed
. (The Petitioner's letter is attached as Exhibit
"E".)
9
. By letter dated March 2, 2005, the Agency revised its February 5, 2005
modifications, stating that the Agency had made the following deductions
:
(a) $1,500 for a professional survey from Other Costs as not eligible
; and,
(b) $7,906 from Personnel Costs as unreasonable .

 
10. The Agency's March 2, 2005
letter further stated that "An underground storage tank
owner or operator may appeal this final decision to the Illinois Pollution Control
Board. . . within 35
days after the date of issuance of the final decision". The
Agency's March
2, 2005 letter is attached as Exhibit
"F"'.)
11
. The Investigation of the Site requires the installation of borings and wells on adjacent
properties
. It is, therefore, necessary to identify property boundaries accurately . In
addition, the legal description for the site will ultimately be required for corrective
action completion
. The only accurate and complete way to identify property
boundaries is to utilize a professional surveyor.
12 . All investigations, plans and reports under sec . 57 .7 of the Act shall be conducted or
prepared under the supervision of a licensed professional engineer. (415 ILCS
5/57.7 .)
A Site Investigation Completion Report must be signed and sealed by a
professional engineer and must contain the following statement: "To the best of my
knowledge and belief, this report, supporting documents and all attachments are true,
accurate and complete." The Professional Engineering Practice Act of 1989 states
:
The use ofa professional engineer's seal on technical submissions constitutes a
representation by the professional engineer that the work has been prepared by
or under the personal supervision ofthe professional engineer or developed in
conjunction with the use of accepted engineering standards. (225 ILCS 325/14)
This Act further states:
Signing, axing the professional engineer's seal or permitting the professional
engineer's seal to be axed to any technical submissions not prepared as
required by Section 14 or completely reviewed by the professional engineer or
under the professional engineer's direct supervision
isprohibited and may result
in loss
of license and/or civilpenalties. (225 ILCS 325/24)
13 . The Agency denied all professional engineer hours from the budget
. As stated
above, a professional engineer cannot certify a technical submission that has not

 
been prepared under the professional engineer's supervision and review
. The
professional engineer hours are necessary to comply with the requirements of the
Professional Engineering Practice Act of 1989 and with the requirements of the
Agency.
14. All project manager hours were denied by the Agency . The project manager is a vital
part of any project in the engineering and consulting industry
. The use of a project
manager is industry standard . Management personnel are utilized for personnel
scheduling, billing, technical reviews, and general project oversight . The use of
management hours is necessary to ensure a timely, cost-effective, and technically
accurate product .
15
. All work approved by the Agency in the Site Investigation Plan cannot feasibly be
completed by the number of hours in the amended budget . Personnel costs of
$12,816 were approved by the Agency on March 5, 2004 for the previous Site
Investigation Plan work which proposed 36 feet of soil borings and 60 feet of
monitoring wells to be installed on-site . This averaged $133 .50 per foot. The current
Site Investigation Plan dated January 18, 2005, approved by the Agency in a letter
dated February 8, 2005, proposed 132 feet of soil borings and 45 feet of monitoring
wells to be installed off-site . Off-site wells and borings require authorization of
adjacent property owners and city permits, which entails additional personnel hours
.
A total of 81 additional feet of soil borings and monitoring wells have been approved
by the Agency for this stage of site investigation which also entails additional
personnel hours
. The Petitioner requested $17, 610 for personnel costs related to this
stage of site investigation . This averages $99 .49 per foot - much less than previously

The PID readings do not appear to indicate elevated vapors due to the Site .
Additionally, to our knowledge, no petroleum vapors or odors have been reported in any
nearby buildings or utility conduits since the original report of the release.
3.4
Community and Potable Well Survey
The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA), Bureau of Water, Division of Public
Water Supply, Illinois State Geological Survey (ISGS) and Illinois State Water Survey
(ISWS) were previously contacted to identify all community water supply wells within
2,500 feet and potable water supply wells within 200 feet of the former tank
. This
information was provided in the 45 Day Report, dated March 13, 2003, and received by
IEPA on February 3, 2003
. Refer to the 45 Day Report for the water well survey data .
The Village of Mattoon Public Works Engineering Department was contacted to
determine if a local ordinance or policy exists that regulates the use of potable water
supply wells
. David Wortman indicated that no local ordinance or policy exists that
regulates the use of potable water supply wells in Mattoon .
3.5
Surface Bodies of Water
A site survey was conducted to identify any surface bodies of water within 100 feet of the
UST system
. No such bodies of water were observed within the 100-foot radius
.
4.0
Discussion of Subsurface Investigation
The laboratory results of the soil and groundwater samples indicate the presence of
petroleum contamination at concentrations above the applicable Tier 1 Cleanup
Objectives at 131, B2, MW1, and MW3 see tables in Appendix F for specific data
. These
results provide evidence that there is migration of petroleum contamination through
natural and man-made pathways at the site
.
Petroleum vapors or odors have not been reported in nearby dwellings or utility conduits
since the original report of the release
. The storm sewer survey indicated no locations
with significant detectable organic vapors
. Based on this information, it appears unlikely
that an immediate threat to human health or safety, or a risk of explosions, exists at the
Site .
5.0
Future Investigation
Based on analytical results to date, soil and groundwater contamination has not been
fully delineated
. Current data suggest extensive soil contamination on-site
. It should be

noted that the distance between and lack of data points on-site creates a large margin of
error when predicting contamination migration. Future investigation activities will focus
on minimizing this margin of error by increasing the number of data points, thereby
reducing the cost of remedial activities . Additional monitoring wells are required to
delineate BTEX contamination to the north and northeast of the site . Additional soil
borings are required to delineate on-site contamination
. MTBE contamination has been
fully delineated. Therefore, analysis of this constituent need not be addressed in this
stage of the investigation. Future investigation at the site will include the following :
Three monitoring wells will be installed to the north and northeast of the site to
delineate the contamination present in MW3
.
- MW5 will be installed off-site on the northwest comer of DeWitt Ave . and 12th
St.
-
MW6 will be installed off-site on the northeast corner of DeWitt Ave . and 12"'
St.
- MW7 will be installed off-site on the southeast comer of DeWitt Ave
. and 12"'
St.
• Groundwater samples will be collected from monitoring wells MW1 - MW7 and sent
to an accredited laboratory for BTEX analysis . A total of 7 groundwater samples will
be collected. One groundwater field blank will be collected and analyzed for BTEX.
• Eight soil borings will be advanced to a depth of 12 feet on-site and three soil borings
will be advanced to a depth of 12 feet off-site and sent to an accredited laboratory for
BTEX analysis . A total of 11 soil borings will be advanced to delineate contamination
of the site .
- B4 will be advanced approximately 40 feet west of PTS4
.
B5 will be advanced approximately 7 feet south of the north sidewalk and 118
feet west of the east sidewalk.
86 will be advanced approximately 20 feet east of B5 and 15 feet south of
MW2.
B7 will be advanced south of tank bed #5, approximately 40 feet east of the
west property boundary .
88 will be advanced 25 feet north of MW4
.
89 will be advanced approximately 15 feet west of MW4 and approximately
45 feet south of PTS1 .
B10 will be advanced approximately 20 feet east of MW1 .
811 will be advanced approximately 20 feet south of MW1 .
B12 will be advanced approximately 15 feet west of MW1 .
B13 will be advanced approximately 20 feet north of MW1
.
B14 will be advanced approximately 45 feet north of PTS2 on the north side
of DeWitt Ave.
In addition to the samples collected from soil borings B4 - B13, soil samples will also
be collected from MW5, MW6, and MW7 . The zone exhibiting the highest PID
reading from each boring will be selected for laboratory analysis
. A second sample,
deeper than the first, also will be selected for laboratory analysis in order to define
the vertical extent of contamination . In the absence of definitive PID readings,
samples will be collected based on similar depths of known contamination . Soil
sample collection will follow SW-846 Method 5035 for BTEX .
HDC Engineering
Project No . 01323

 
Permission to access adjacent properties to the north, northeast, and southwest for
investigation will be requested from the property owners . If access is granted
groundwater and soil investigation will be performed on these properties .
Soil borings, well installation, and sample collection will follow procedures described in
Section 3.0 of this report. Wells are expected to be 15 feet deep and soil borings are
expected to be 12 feet deep . However, depths may be increased based on field
screening results. Boring locations as shown in Appendix B are approximate . Actual
locations may vary based on physical barriers such as utility lines, utility poles, trees,
and ground cover (e.g., concrete drives) .
A budget for the next phase of delineation is being submitted with this plan .
If the data gathered from this proposed phase of investigation is sufficient to delineate
soil and groundwater contamination, a corrective action plan and budget will be
developed. If groundwater contamination is not fully delineated, an additional
investigation plan and budget will be submitted for approval .

SECTION 2
I . S 1 .500.00 for surveying . These costs are for activities in excess of those required to meet
the minimum requirements of Title XVI of the Act (Section 57 .7(c)(3) of the Act and 35
III. Adm. Code 732.505(c) and 732.606(o)) .
The excessive costs submitted for surveying indicates that a professional surveyor is
being utilized which is not required by the Agency .
.
2 .
$17,610.00
for costs that lack supporting documentation (35 Ill . Adm. Code
732.606(gg)) . A site investigation plan budget must include, but not be limited to, an
accounting of all costs associated with the development, implementation, and completion
of the site investigation plan (Section 57 .7(a)(2) of the Act) . Since there is no supporting
documentation ofcosts, the Illinois EPA cannot determine if the minimum requirements
necessary to comply with Title XVI have been exceeded (Section 57
.7(c)(3) of the Act
and 35 111 . Adm
. Code 732.505(c) and 732 .606(o)) .
The Agency is requesting that the proposed personnel costs be further broken down to
provide sufficient justification for the proposed personnel cost . The Agency is requesting
information regarding the task performed by each person and the amount of time for each
task performed . The Agency is requesting justification for the estimated amount of time
to complete each task.
Attachment A

 
For example, the professional engineer is requesting 28 hours for P .E. preparation and
certification of reports and project oversight . The Agency is requesting justification as to
why it takes 28 hours to perform these tasks? If 28 hours is simply a budgeted guess,
why was 28 hours proposed?

LUST Incident No .: 931126
LUST Technical File
Dear Mr
. Malcom:
In response to your letter dated February 8, 2005, HDC Engineering (HDC) has prepared a
breakdown and justification of the personnel hours that were denied from the Site Investigation
Budget dated January 18, 2005. Please refer to Attachment A for justification of surveying costs
and Attachment B for a complete breakdown and justification of personnel hours .
HDC would like to point out that the IEPA increases personnel costs every time it requires HDC
to submit additional information
. The IEPA required HDC to justify every line item of the last
Site Investigation budget as well . Furthermore, the IEPA originally denied approval of the first
Site Investigation Plan, submitted in September 2003, stating that the number of borings was
unreasonable
. However, four of the borings included in the approved Stage 2 plan are in similar
locations on the Site as proposed in the denied plan, showing that the original plan was
reasonable in the first place. Costs for the project would have been reduced had the original
plan been approved in September 2003 .
HDC has a highly qualified staff of environmental professionals, with many years of experience
with underground storage tanks . This recurring requirement by the IEPA for
microjustification
of personnel costs is redundant and time consuming, and is viewed as an affront to HDC's
professionalism and experience
. It also has the unfortunate result of increasing the overall
costs and duration of the project. As your office has told HDC, one of the charters of the IEPA
is to ensure the LUST fund is well spent However, you consistently require HOC to duplicate
effort in justifying cost when, in fact, the cost and work are already justified and reasonable
.

HDC Engineering (HDC) has been in contact with Sue Rennels of Representative Chapin
Rose's office. As you are aware, Ms . Rennels has been in contact with the IEPA on behalf of
Doris Webb, who is a constituent of Mr . Rose. In response to the recent Site Investigation (SI)
budget, Ms
. Rennels informed HDC that your office dog not intend to approve the personnel
requested as part of this budget, even considering the justification letter prepared by HDC and
dated February 15, 2005 . Ms . Rennels stated that your position is that SI personnel costs are
limited to a range around $12,000 .
HDC agrees that this amount of personnel costs, depending on the site-specific scope of work,
may be adequate for the first stage of St. However, many sites, such as Webb's, require
additional stages of St. Each stage of investigation will require additional personnel costs
. The
personnel costs for additional stages may be greater than the first stage of investigation, as the
work generally tends to incorporate adjacent properties, necessitating property boundary
identification and right-of-entry agreements . Additionally, subsequent costs and associated work
are not known until the each preceding stage is completed .
HDC would also like to point out that we have two other projects in the second stage of SI which
are under the review of other IEPA units . Personnel costs for both of these projects were
approved for each stage of SI as follows :
Stage 1
Stage 2
Total
$14,972
$16,710
$31,682
$13,974
$12,333
$26,307

 
James Malcolm
February 25, 2005
Page 2 of 2
It would appear that your unit's interpretation of SI is inconsistent with at least two other units
in
your section
.
HDC maintains that additional stages of SI logically require additional personnel
costs . The
personnel costs approved for the first stage of SI were to perform and report on the field work
for that stage, including three soil borings
and four monitoring wells .
The second stage will
include personnel costs to perform and report
on an additional eleven soil borings and
three
monitoring wells, several of which are off site . The technical portion of the work plan was
approved, as well as all investigation, analytical, equipment, and most other costs . It is not
reasonable that all of the work and non-personnel costs were approved, but the personnel costs
to actually perform the work was not .
Your review letter dated February 8, 2005, does not refer to itself as a final decision or state that
the decision can be appealed
.
HDC requests that you reconsider your decision and approve
the proposed costs . In lieu of approval, HDC requests that you issue a final decision letter with
the appeal attachment that is standard for budgets that have been approved with modifications .
If you have any questions I can be reached at 217 .352.6976 or Kevin® hdc-eng.com.

Attachment A
$1,500 were deducted from the budget for surveying costs with the reasoning that a
professional survey is not required by the Agency
. The requirements of Title XVI do not
specifically require a professional survey as part of a LUST incident . However, it has been
HDC's experience that professional survey's are ultimately necessary to delineate and obtain
No Further Remediation status for LUST projects .
During the course of delineation, it is necessary to identify the site's property boundaries
. The
location of these boundaries is used to identify the extents of the property and to place off site
boring locations.
The letter to request off site access to perform delineation and/or remediation on adjacent
properties is essentially a contract between the LUST owner/operator and the adjacent property
owner.
Therefore, a professional boundary survey is crucial in identifying the site's and
adjacent parcel's property limits to insure that the necessary access is obtained and that the
necessary involved parties are protected by the off site access letter .
The accurate location of property boundaries is necessary for the use of highway authority
agreements . These agreements require scaled maps identifying the impacted area and the
extents of the agreement
.
Environmental land use controls require the legal description of the property subject to the
control. The professional boundary survey is used for this purpose.
The Property Owner Summary required for corrective action completion also requires a legal
description
. Again, the professional survey Is used for this purpose .
In general, the reporting requirements of the LUST program require the accurate presentation of
the site and adjoining properties, including utilities, roadways, and property boundaries. To fulfill
these requirements, a professional survey is conducted . Sources such as county plat and aerial
composite maps are not always of sufficient detail to accommodate the requirements to close a
LUST incident
. In some instances, a foot can mean the difference between a highway authority
agreement and an environmental land use control . Additional land use controls requires a
significant amount of additional consulting time and additional liability for the owner .
Required technical reports, such as the Site Investigation Completion Report and the Corrective
Action Completion Report, require certification by a licensed Professional Engineer or
Professional Geologist. The certification includes the following statement
To the best of my knowledge
and belief, this report supporting documents and all
attachments
are true, accurate and complete.
The only accurate and complete way to identify property boundaries is to utilize a professional
surveyor.
Because of these reasons, HDC requests that the Agency approve the $1,500 for professional
surveyor's costs . These costs have been approved on numerous other LUST budgets and
billing packages .

Dear Mr. Malcom :
In response to your letter dated February 8, 2005, HDC Engineering (HDC) has prepared a
breakdown and justification of the personnel hours that were denied from the Site Investigation
Budget dated January 18, 2005
. Please refer to Attachment A for justification of surveying costs
and Attachment B for a complete breakdown and justification of personnel hours
.
HDC would like to point out that the IEPA increases personnel costs every time it requires HDC
to submit additional information
. The IEPA required HDC to justify every line item of the last
Site Investigation budget as well
. Furthermore, the IEPA originally denied approval of the first
Site Investigation Plan, submitted in September 2003, stating that the number of borings was
unreasonable
. However, four of the borings included in the approved Stage 2 plan are in similar
locations on the Site as proposed in the denied plan, showing that the original plan was
reasonable in the first place
. Costs for the project would have been reduced had the original
plan been approved in September 2003 .
HDC has a highly qualified staff of environmental professionals, with many years of experience
with underground storage tanks . This recurring requirement by the IEPA for micro justification
of personnel costs is redundant and time consuming, and is viewed as an affront to HDC's
professionalism and experience
. It also has the unfortunate result of increasing the overall
costs and duration of the project
. As your office has told HDC, one of the charters of the IEPA
is to ensure the LUST fund is well spent
. However, you consistently require HDC to duplicate
effort in justifying cost when, in fact, the cost and work are already justified and reasonable
.

Attachment A
$1,500 were deducted from the budget for surveying costs with the reasoning that a
professional survey is not required by the Agency . The requirements of Title XVI do not
specifically require a professional survey as part of a LUST incident . However, it has been
HDC's experience that professional survey's are ultimately necessary to delineate and obtain
No Further Remediation status for LUST projects .
During the course of delineation, it is necessary to identify the site's property boundaries
. The
location of these boundaries is used to identify the extents of the property and to place off site
boring locations .
The letter to request off site access to perform delineation and/or remediation on adjacent
properties is essentially a contract between the LUST owner/operator and the adjacent property
owner.
Therefore, a professional boundary survey is crucial in identifying the site's and
adjacent parcel's property limits to insure that the necessary access Is obtained and that the
necessary involved parties are protected by the off site access letter.
The accurate location of property boundaries is necessary for the use of highway authority
agreements
. These agreements require scaled maps identifying the impacted area and the
extents of the agreement .
Environmental land use controls require the legal description of the property subject to the
control
. The professional boundary survey is used for this purpose .
The Property Owner Summary required for corrective action completion also requires a legal
description. Again, the professional survey is used for this purpose
.
In general, the reporting requirements of the LUST program require the accurate presentation of
the site and adjoining properties, including utilities
; roadways, and property boundaries
. To fulfill
these requirements, a professional survey is conducted . Sources such as county plat and aerial
composite maps are not always of sufficient detail to accommodate the requirements to close a
LUST incident
. In some instances, a foot can mean the difference between a highway authority
agreement and an environmental land use control . Additional land use controls requires a
significant amount of additional consulting time and additional liability for the owner
.
Required technical reports, such as the Site Investigation Completion Report and the Corrective
Action Completion Report, require certification by a licensed Professional Engineer or
Professional Geologist The certification includes the following statement
To the best of my
knowledge
and belief this report, supporting documents and all
attachments are true, accurate and complete
.
The only accurate and complete way to
identify property boundaries is to utilize a professional
surveyor.
Because of these reasons, HDC requests that the Agency approve the $1,500 for professional
surveyor's costs
. These costs have been approved on numerous other LUST

*Miscellaneous time includes communication with the owner/operator, local municipality, IDOT,
subcontractors, and the IEPA which does not necessarily fall within a specific task . HDC has
found that many times, especially with this site, that the IEPA requires additional information
and justification for the approval of budgets, reimbursements and reports . When the IEPA
requests additional informationfjustification, additional consultant fees are incurred . HDC feels
that the costs requested in this budget are reasonable and are consistent approved funds for
several other LUST projects.

Review Notes
The phase
II
site investigation received January 24, 2005 was approved, the plan proposed the
installation of 3 monitoring wells and 17 soil
borings to define the extent of contamination
. The
plan was approved while the budget was approved with the following modifications :
I .
$1,500.00
for surveying
. These costs are for activities in excess of those required to meet
the minimum requirements of Title XVI of the Act (Section 57
.7(c)(3) of the Act and 35
Ill. Adm. Code 732 .505(c) and 732
.606(o)).
The excessive costs submitted for surveying indicates that a professional surveyor is
being utilized which is not required by the Agency
.
2.
$17,610.00
for costs that lack supporting documentation (35 III
. Adm. Code
732.606(gg))
. A site investigation plan budget must include, but not be limited to, an
accounting of all costs associated with the development, implementation, and
completion of the site investigation plan (Section 57
.7(a)(2) of the Act)
. Since there is no
8

 
Page 2
supporting documentation of costs, the Illinois EPA cannot determine if the minimum
requirements necessary to comply with Title XVI have been exceeded (Section 57 .7(c)(3)
of the Act and 35 Ill. Adm., Code 732 .505(c) and 732.606(o)).
The Agency is requesting that the proposed personnel costs be further broken down to
provide sufficient justification for the proposed personnel cost
.
The Agency is requesting
information regarding the task performed by each person and the amount of time for each
task performed . The Agency is requesting justification for the estimated amount of time
to complete each task .
For example, the professional engineer is requesting 28 hours for P
.E. preparation and
certification of reports and project oversight . The Agency is requesting justification as to
why it takes 28 hours to perform these tasks? If 28 hours is simply a budgeted guess, why
was 28 hours proposed?
The budget amendment received February 16, 2005 contains the hourly breakdown
for thepersonnel hours previously rejected by the .Agency
.
The following personnel and work hours are being approved :
Environmental ProfessionalII (82 Hours approved, 8 hours denied as unreasonable)
$5,330.00 ok
The 4 hours for pre-drill/post drill were deducted as these cost are considered part of
sample and soil boring log hours. The 4 hours for miscellaneous task was deducted as
these tasks are being approved under Off-site access hours
Environmental Professional Dl (46 Hours approved, 24 hours denied as unreasonable)
$3,450.00 ok
The hours associated with the safety and health plan were deducted as this task was
approved under the previous budget The hours forpre-drill, post drill, well purging
and sampling, and miscellaneous were deducted as they were approved under the
Environmental Professional ll hours.
Environmental Professional IV (12 Hours approved, 16 hours denied as unreasonable)
$924.00
ok
The hours associated with report preparation & oversight and miscellaneous were
deducted as these tasks were approved under the Environmental professional II
.
All hours associated with the project manager were deducted as these hours were
approved under the environmental professional H hours . All hours for the project
engineer were deducted as these hours were approved under the environmental
professional II
. The costs for the stage III site investigation work plan and budget was
deducted as this report is not required at this time .

TESTIMONY OF DOUGLAS W
. CLAY REGARDING
THE ILLINOIS POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD'S
PROPOSED 35 ILL
. ADM
. CODE 732 .845 AND 734 .845
My name is Doug Clay . I am the manager of the Leaking Underground Storage
Tank ("LUST") Section within the Bureau of Land of the Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency ("Agency"). I have been in my current position since September of
1994. This section is primarily responsible for reviewing the technical adequacy of
plans, reports and associated budgets for the remediation of releases from underground
storage tanks regulated under 35 111
. Adm . Code, Parts 731, 732 and 734 .
Prior to assuming my current position, I was the manager of the Disposal
Alternative Unit within the Permit Section of the Bureau of Land . I have also worked in
the Permit Section in the Bureau of Water
. I have been employed at the Illinois EPA
since 1983 following the receipt of a B.S
. degree in Civil Engineering from the
RECEIVED
CLERK'S OFFICE
MAR 01 2006
Pollution
STATE OF
Control
ILLINOISBoard

 
University of Illinois . I have been a Registered Professional Engineer in Illinois since
1989.
Today I will be testifying with regard to the Illinois Pollution Control Board's
("Board's'") proposed 35 Ill . Adm . Code 732 .845 and 734 .845 published for public
comment in the Board's January 5, 2006, Opinion and Order
. My testimony will address
issues raised in the Board's January 5, 2006, Opinion and Order as well as the Hearing
Officer's February 16, 2006, Order .
In answer to the Board's question about the Agency's LUST database, the
database does not contain adequate information to determine lump sum payments for
professional consulting services . As we stated in earlier testimony, we do not believe that
lump payment amounts for professional consulting services should be determined from
future reimbursement submissions over the next few years . Collecting this data,
breaking it down in great detail, as has been proposed at previous hearings would require
significant resources by the Illinois EPA, which we simply do not have . In addition,
accepting the costs as submitted without review (i.e. no quality control) would invite
inflated amounts knowing that these will be used to set future acceptable costs. Also, this
would require that every consultant that does LUST work in the State of Illinois adopt a
complicated, confusing, and overly burdensome reimbursement accounting system for
seeking corrective action costs that has been designed and proposed by just a few
consulting firms . This type of system would undoubtedly increase the costs for
preparation of budgets and reimbursement packages, thus increasing overall corrective
costs for each site
.
2

 
The Agency has reviewed the scope of work proposed by the Board, with a few
modifications, believes it to adequately represent the work required to remediate a
leaking underground storage tank release in Illinois . We do not believe that the scope of
work needs to be part of Board rules, and do not intend to propose Agency rules
regarding this issue
. Attached as part of my testimony (Attachments I and 2) are two
spreadsheets that include the scopes of work, the title of the personnel that may perform
the work, a reasonable number of hours for the identified personnel to perform the work,
and a comment field .
To develop this attachment the Agency convened a workgroup made up of the
five LUST Section unit managers, five senior LUST Section project managers, two senior
LUST Claims Unit reviewers, and myself. This workgroup has a combined 140 years of
experience reviewing and evaluating LUST sites
. The information in Attachments 1 and
2 represent the consensus of the workgroup . We grouped some scopes of work together
for the purpose of assigning hours and, where appropriate, made comments for additional
clarification. Where the hours field next to a scope of work has been left blank the
comments field provides an explanation of why . All time is rounded up to a full hour, so
the minimum amount of time assigned to a scope of work is 1 hour . The personnel and
hours assigned to each scope of work represents what the Agency believes to be a
reasonable amount of time for the identified personnel to perform the identified work .
Also attached as part of my testimony (Attachments 3 and 4) is a table
summarizing the lump sum amounts for each of the scopes of work from Attachments I
and 2. The table provides a lump sum range for each scope of work, based on the range
of the high and low rates for each personnel title. The high and low rates are taken from
3

 
Appendix E that was just adopted by the Board . It should be emphasized that we
identified a Project Manager, whose rate ranges from $90 to $100 per hour, as performing
most work . However, it is not necessary for a Project Manger to perform much of the
work. The Agency has observed that in most cases other personnel, such as geologists,
scientists, or technicians, perform much of the work
. Because these other personnel have
lower rates, the work can be performed well within the lump sum amounts.
The Agency believes that the unit rates for professional services (half-day rates
for field work and travel rates) continue to be appropriate and should remain in Sections
732
.845 and 734 .845 in addition to the lump sum amounts
. They should continue to be
directly linked to productivity numbers
(e.g. number of borings per half-day, excavation
quantity per half-day, etc .) as in the Board's proposed rules
. It is reasonable to expect a
certain level of productivity for these activities
. As with other costs in Subpart H,
payment from the Fund may exceed the lump sums and unit rates if the owner or operator
can demonstrate unusual or extraordinary circumstances under Section 732
.860 or
734.860.
As we testified during previous hearings, Illinois is not the first state to adopt in
regulations lump sums and unit rates for remedial work, including professional services
.
Many of the lump sums and unit rates proposed in Subdocket B are comparable to lump
sums and unit rates adopted in California, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Nevada, Tennessee,
and Texas
. Regulations from these states were previously submitted to the Board and are
already a part of the record
.

TESTIMONY OF DOUGLAS W
. CLAY INSUPPORT OF
THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY'S PROPOSAL TO AMEND
35 ILL . ADM
. CODE 732
My name is Doug Clay
. I am the manager of the Leaking Underground Storage
Tank ("LUST") Section within the Bureau of Land of the Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency
. I have been in my current position since September of 1994
. The
LUST Section is primarily responsible for reviewing the technical adequacy of plans,
reports and associated budgets for the remediation of releases from underground storage
tanks regulated under Title XVI of the Environmental Protection Act ("Act")
and 35 Ill.
Adm. Code, Parts 731 and 732
.
Prior to assuming my current position, I was the manager of the Disposal
Alternative Unit within the Permit Section of the Bureau of Land
. I have also worked in
the Permit Section in the Bureau of Water
. I have been employed at the Illinois EPA
since 1983 following the receipt of a B
.S. degree in Civil Engineering from the
University of Illinois
. I have been a Registered Professional Engineer in Illinois since
1989
. A copy of my resume is attached .
Today I will be testifying in support of the proposed amendments to 35 Ill
. Adm.
Code, Part 732
. These amendments are the result of
: (1) modification to the Illinois
Environmental Protection Act by Public Acts 92-0554 and 92-0735
; (2) the need to

 
reform the current budget and reimbursement process
; and (3) to clarify issues that have
arisen since Part 732 was last amended
. My testimony will provide a brief overview and
focus on a portion of Subpart C (Section 732
.306 only), Subpart D, Subpart E, portions of
Subpart F and Subpart G .
Overview
- The proposed regulatory amendments are intended to streamline the
leaking underground storage tank remediation process, clarify remediation requirements
and most notably reform the budget and reimbursement process
. The new budget and
reimbursement process would eliminate the majority -of budgets and reimbursement
packages submitted based on a time and material basis and replace them with submittals
based on unit rates and lump sums for specific tasks established in the regulations . We
believe that this will streamline the approval of budgets and the processing of
reimbursement claims. Currently, there is a tremendous amount of time spent reviewing
budgets and reimbursement packages . Furthermore, the majority of plan and report
denials, amendments to plans and reports submitted by consultants, and appeals before
the Illinois Pollution Control Board are related to budget and reimbursement issues, as
opposed to technical issues
. The Agency believes that the proposed amendments will
allow more efficient use of Board and Agency resources, improve consistency, lower
remediation costs, expedite cleanups and allow tank owners and operators to be
reimbursed in a more timely manner
. The proposed costs in Subpart H were developed
with input from the consulting industry and other trade organizations plus nearly 15 years
of Agency experience administering the leaking underground storage tank reimbursement
program, and are generally consistent with the rates we currently approve for
reimbursement
. Over the past 15 years, the Agency has approved over one-half billion
2

 
dollars for reimbursement
. This involved reviewing over 12,800 budgets and over
18,300 applications for payments
. In addition, it should be noted that our current rates
and the approach to the development of our current rates have been upheld in Board
decisions .
Section 732 .306- Deferred Site Classification ; Priority List for Payment
.
Wording has been changed to clarify the administrative procedures with regard to
deferring site classification due to insufficient funds being available for reimbursement
from the UST Fund
. In addition, the minimum criteria that must be met before an owner
or operator is allowed to defer has been modified and would require that the extent of soil
and groundwater contamination be determined
. The Agency believes that the proposed
additions are required to be able to determine that the deferral of site investigation for the
subject release would not pose a threat to human health or the environment . This is the
same wording that is being proposed in Section 732 .406.
Section 732 .404 - High Priority Site
. Wording was added in subsection
732.404(e)
requiring the potable water well survey identified in subsection 732 .307(f) to
be extended if the contamination has migrated beyond the property boundary or if the soil
and/or groundwater is going to be left in place and the groundwater is modeled to migrate
beyond the property boundary . The same sources of information previously required
must be contacted and documentation provided to help ensure the adequate protection of
potable water supply wells
.
In addition, the Agency may require a more extensive well survey, which may .
include a physical survey of wells in the area if site-specific circumstances warrant
. For
example, if the original well survey is conducted and identifies that some, but not all, of

TESTIMONY OF HARRY A CHAPPEL . P,E
.
IN SUPPORT OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY'S PROPOSAL TO
AMEND 35 ILL. ADM . CODE 732
My name is Harry Chappel
. I am a Unit Manager in the Leaking Underground Storage
Tank (UST) Section within the Bureau of Land of the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA). I have been in my current position since March of 2002. I was employed by the Illinois
EPA from 1976 to 1995
. From 1995 to 2001 I was in private practice as a co-owner in two
environmental consulting firms located in Springfield, Illinois
. I was the Manager of the
Leaking UST Section from 1991 to 1994
. I received a B .S. degree in Civil Engineering from the
University of Missouri at Rolla in 1975 and a M .S
. in Thermal and Environmental Engineering
from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale in 1979
. I have been a Registered Professional
Engineer in Illinois since 1979
. A copy of my current resume is provided as Attachment 1 .
Today I will be testifying in support of the proposal to amend 35 Ill
. Adm. Code, Part
732
. This proposal is the result of modifications to the Illinois Environmental Protection Act by
Public Acts 92-0554 and 92-0735, and the need to reform the current reimbursement procedures
.
My testimony will focus on the following reimbursement requirements proposed in Subpart H of
Part 732 :
732 .800
Applicability

 
732.825
Soil Removal and Disposal
732.835
Sample Handling and Analysis
732.845
Professional Consulting Services
732.850
Payment on Time and Material Basis
732.855
Unusual or Extraordinary Expenses
732.865
Agency Review of Payment Amounts
The remaining portions of Subpart H will be discussed by Brian Bauer in his testimony .
732.800-Auplicability
This section specifies that all reimbursable tasks and/or activities under Part 732 will be
limited to a maximum amount specified therein
. Illinois EPA has grouped all activities which
may be reimbursable into the following categories :
732.810 - UST Removal or Abandonment
732.815 - Free Product or Groundwater Removal and Disposal
732.820 - Drilling, Well Installation and Abandonment
732.825 - Soil Removal and Disposal
732.830 - Drum Disposal
732.835 - Sample Handling and Analysis
732.840 - Replacement of Paving ; Above. Grade Structures
732.845
- Professional Consulting Services
732.850 - Time and Material Payments
732.855 - Unusual or Extraordinary Expenses
732 .860 - Handling Charges
2

 
In support of these proposed allowable amounts, I have attached copies of allowable
amounts from other states with similar programs
. These attachments are as follows :
Attachment 2 - Summary of Information
Attachment 3 - Arizona
Attachment 4 - Indiana
Attachment 5 - Colorado
Attachment 6-Texas
Attachment 7 - Oklahoma
Attachment 8 - South Carolina
732.825 - Soil Removal and Disposal
The Illinois EPA is proposing to allow a maximum of $57 .00 per cubic yard for soil
excavation, transportation and disposal costs
. Attachment 9 provides a summary of randomly
selected projects, which were reviewed in developing this figure . The $57 per cubic yard figure
proposed in the regulations is the sum of the cost to excavate, transport and dispose ($47 .58) plus
one standard deviation ($8
.22), rounded up to $57 to allow for incidental expenses . The Illinois
EPA is proposing $20/cubic yard be allowed for backfill costs
. The $20/cubic yard figure is the
sum of the costs to backfill ($15
.89) plus one standard deviation ($4 .38), rounded to the nearest
whole dollar
. The Illinois EPA is proposing separate amounts for these activities since the
amount of soil excavated and disposed does not always equal the amount of backfill required .
The Illinois EPA has historically allowed $55 per cubic yard for excavation, transportation, and
disposal of contaminated soil .
3

 
These costs include all equipment, personnel, trucking and disposal fees . They do not
include a consultant's oversight of the removal operation .
To determine the volume of soil, a simple volume calculation is provided in the proposal
.
To account for the fact that the in-place volume is less than the excavated volume of soil, a
"fluff' factor of 5 percent has been added to the equation
. This 5 percent allowance applies to
excavation, transportation, disposal, and backfill volumes
. Also, the conversion factor for
converting tons to cubic yards has been specified
. This conversion factor is also proposed for
early action excavation amounts specified in Appendix C of the amended rules .
Likewise, the volume of backfill allowed to be reimbursed has been specified . The $20
per cubic yard figure again includes materials, trucking, equipment and personnel . This figure
does not include costs for a consultant's oversight of the operation
.
There will be situations where soil at the excavation may not be contaminated, but must
be removed to access the contaminated soil . A cost per cubic yard to excavate, stockpile and
replace this soil has been specified to account for these situations . This $6 .50 per cubic yard
figure was obtained from the 2003 National Construction Cost Estimator, 51
s' Edition.
732.835-Sampling Handling and Analysis
Proposed Appendix D will set the maximum amounts to be reimbursed for various
chemical and physical tests on soil and groundwater
. The Illinois EPA met with the Illinois
Association of Environmental Laboratories (IAEL) regarding reasonable reimbursement amounts
for these types of tests . In response to the Agency's request, the IAEL provided a survey of 5
labs which is included in Attachment 10
. The IAEL suggested the Illinois EPA use the highest
rate reported by any of the 5 laboratories
. The Illinois EPA rejected this approach . The Illinois
4

 
EPA instead opted to use the average amounts provided on the IAEL data contained in
Attachment 10 . Attachment 11 breaks down how the average amounts provided in Appendix D
were calculated from the IA EL data . The following variations from the IAEL data should also
be noted :
1 .
The cost per sample for chemical oxygen demand (COD) was based on the
IAEL data for the biological oxygen demand (BOD) test
. It was assumed the cost for
these two tests would be similar
. A cost for BOD has not been provided in Appendix D
as this test is not required in most UST applications
;
2.
Dollar amounts on the IAEL table (Appendix 10) were rounded to the next
higher total dollar amount ;
3.
A cost for "Iron Total Soil" is included in the Illinois EPA proposal that is
not on the IAEL spreadsheet
. The cost of this test was assumed to be equal to the test for
"Iron TCLP Soil," or $10 ;
4.
The geotechnical cost for porosity and soil classification are based on
historical results from previous budgets and billing packages reviewed by the Illinois
EPA
. The average cost for a porosity test was $30
. The average cost for soil
classification was $68 .
732.845-Professional Consultins Services
This section provides limits for the fees that consultants may be reimbursed-for
various
tasks conducted as part of Leaking UST remediation
. The Illinois EPA has coordinated with the
Consulting Engineers Council of Illinois (CECI) to develop the activities that are conducted by
the consultant in each step of the process and the estimated personnel time (hours) required for
5

 
each activity within a task . Once the hours required to perform a task and/or activity were
determined, the Illinois EPA developed an average hourly rate to establish the limits specified in
this section
. The Illinois EPA developed an average hourly rate by reviewing the historical
records of the Illinois EPA for previous reimbursements
. By averaging the maximum hourly
rates for each title in Appendix E of the proposed rules, an average hourly rate of $81
.25/hour is
derived as follows
:
In addition, the Illinois EPA randomly selected 19 reimbursement requests to review in
an attempt to determine if the rate was reasonable
. This information is summarized in
Attachment 12
. This data would indicate an average rate for consultant services around
$68/hour.
Using this information, the Illinois EPA determined an average hourly personnel cost of
$80/hour would be used for budgeting purposes
. This figure is roughly 15% higher thanthe
average derived from the reimbursement requests summarized in Attachment 12
. Unless stated
otherwise in the testimony for specific sections, a workday of ten hours was assumed
. The limits
specified include all costs incurred by a consultant for completing the specified activity,

including, but not limited to, project planning and oversight, travel, per diem, mileage,

applications for payment and other documentation
. There will be no additional monies provided
if multiple submittals are required to provide the required information . For example, a
consultant may be reimbursed up to $4,800 for the preparation and submission of the 20-Day and
45-Day Reports, and any amendments or revisions to those reports .
The hours estimated for the various activities discussed were derived in consultation with
the Consulting Engineers Council of Illinois (CECI).
a.
Early Action - the proposed fee (allowed if the consultant is involved with
the preparation for the abandonment or removal of USTs) is derived as follows :
Personnel -12 hours x $80/hour = $960
.00
20 and 45-Day Reports - the proposed fee for preparation of the 20-Day and 45-
Day Reports is derived as follows
:
Personnel - 60 hours x $80/hour = $4,800 .00
Free Product Reports - the proposed fee is for initial site visit and preparing a
Free Product Report for submittal . The fee is derived as follows :
Personnel - 2 people x 1 day x 10 hour day x $80/hour = $1,600.00
Free Product Recovery Systems - the cost for design, installation, and operation
of Free Product Recovery Systems will be determined based on a time and material basis,
in accordance with proposed Section 732 .850 .
7

 
The final proposed fee specified under this section allows $500 for a Professional
Engineer's closure certification, if remediation is complete following early action
activities . This fee is derived as follows :
2 hours x $130/hour = $260.00
The remaining $240 is to cover the additional costs for clerical support, preparation and
submittal of the Owner/Operator Summary form and recording fees for the No Further
Remediation Letter .
b.
Site Evaluation and Classification - Consulting fees for site classification
pursuant to Section 732.307 (Method 1 and Method 2) include preparation of the Site
Classification Plan, oversight of the field work and preparation of the Site Classification
Completion Report . To develop this fee the Illinois EPA reviewed 32 reimbursement
requests containing personnel costs for Method 1 and 2 site classifications . Attachment
13 is a summary of the data developed and provides the proposed average cost of
$9,870.00 for these two methods of site classification . Owners/operators choosing to
classify using Section 732 .312 will propose personnel budgets based on a time and
materials breakdown under 732 .850.
c.
Low Priority Corrective Action - The consultant fees allowed for low
priority corrective action are derived as follows :
8
Monitoring Plan
1s` Year Report
2nd Year Report
40 hours x $80/hour = • $3,200
32 hours x $80/hour= $2,560
32 hours x $80/hour = $2,560
Completion Report 32 hours x $80/hour = $2,560
Total = $10,880

 
Consultant fees for low priority field oversight and monitoring will be discussed by Mr
.
Bauer.
d.
Corrective Action - the corrective action requirements will consist of the
preparation of the Corrective Action Plan (CAP) and Budget,. the field work associated
with conducting corrective action, the preparation of the Corrective Action Completion
Report (CACR) and all reimbursement requests
. For conventional technology the rules
establish set fees for these activities
. The fees established for the office work involved in
developing the conventional technology CAP and Budget, the CACR and reimbursement
submittals for conventional technology, and a CACR for alternative technologies are
derived as follows :
64 hours x $80/hour= $5,120
The fees established for the consultant's field work will be discussed by Mr . Bauer.
The consultant fee reimbursement amount for alternative technologies will be
based on a time and material justification, which will be discussed later
.
A consultant would not be entitled to the $5,120 for CAP preparation if no active
remediation will occur
. For example, if, following site investigation, the CAP consists
only of placing asphalt over the remaining contamination and performing a Part 742
model, the reimbursement proposing to use only Part 742 (TACO) barriers, models, and
institutional controls would be limited to $800 [732
.845(c)(3)] plus the Corrective Action
Completion Report (CACR) costs of $5,120 for a total of $5,920 for the CAP and CACR
.

Additional monies have been allowed for the consultant's development of Tier 2
or Tier 3 remediation objectives under 35 Ill . Adm. Code 742 and the preparation of
Environmental Land Use Controls and Highway Authority Agreements as follows :
10 hours x $80/hour = $800.00
732.850-Payment on Time and Material Basis
In developing the reimbursement amounts under Subpart H the Agency realized there
were activities for which a specific set fee could not be developed
. This section of Subpart H
provides a method for developing a budget and reimbursement amount for such activities
. The
estimated budgets and reimbursement amounts for the activities will be based on a time and
materials basis for each site
. For example, the development and implementation of CAPs
proposing alternative technologies will require a breakdown of all proposed activities which do
not have set amounts previously established (e .g., analytical costs listed in Appendix D) . It
should be noted the cost for the alternative technology proposal cannot exceed the cost for
conventional technology or be substantially higher than other available alternative technologies.
All plans and budgets will be reviewed for reasonableness .
Section 732 .855-Unusual
or Extraordinary Expenses
This section provides an opportunity for an owner/operator to demonstrate their site
presents unusual or extraordinary circumstances
. If the owner or operator can demonstrate such
circumstances to the Agency, the Agency can allow exceedances of the Subpart H amounts on a
site-specific basis .
Section 732 .865-Increase
in Maximum Payment Amounts
10

 
Section 732 .865 is amended in the Agency's First Errata Sheet . As amended, this section
will increase the amounts set forth in Subpart H every year based on inflation. The amount of the
increase is based upon the annual Implicit Price Deflator for Gross National Product and will
be
published by the Agency on, or before, July 1 of each year on the Agency's web site . The annual
adjustment may not exceed 5% in any one year, and the first adjustment will be effective July 1,
2006. In addition, as always, the Agency or anyone else may propose changes to the rules at any
time as needed .
The inflation factor used by the Agency in reviewing budget proposals will be based on
the amounts in effect on the date the budget was received . For billing packages not based on an
approved budget, the maximum allowable amounts will be based on the date the costs were
incurred .
