Proposed Rule. Second Notice.
 
OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by T.E. Johnson):
 
Today the Board adopts the proposed rule for second notice pursuant to the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act (5 ILCS 100/1-1 et seq. (2004)). This rulemaking was filed by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) on December 22, 2005. The Agency proposes amendments to Parts 218 and 219 of the volatile organic material (VOM) rules (415 ILCS 5/218, 219 (2004)) to allow for the use of add-on controls as a compliance option for operations using cold cleaning solvent degreasing. The proposed amendments affect cold cleaning degreasing operations located in the Chicago and Metro-East ozone nonattainment areas.
 
 The Board adopted first notice rules on September 21, 2006. The proposed amendments were published in the Illinois Register on October 6, 2006. 30 Ill. Reg. 40, at 15867, 15892 (Oct. 6, 2006). The Board received no public comments during the 45-day first-notice public comment period, which ended November 26, 2006, and the proposal adopted here is substantively unchanged from that adopted in the Board’s first-notice opinion and order. In this opinion, the Board provides the procedural history of this rulemaking, an overview of the proposed standards and limitations, and a discussion of the second-notice proposal.
 
 Today the Board adopts this proposal for second-notice review by the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR).
 

BACKGROUND
 

The Agency filed the proposal on December 22, 2005. If adopted, the proposed amendments will amend two subsections of the requirements found in Parts 218.182 and 219.182 of the Environmental Protection Act (Act). 415 ILCS 5/218.182, 219.182 (2004). The amendments will also amend Appendix H of both Parts.
 
Solvent cleaning, or degreasing as it is commonly called, is a process using aqueous liquids or non-aqueous organic solvents to clean and remove soils from surfaces. Proposal (Prop.) at 2. Solvent cleaning is divided into three major types: cold cleaning; open-top vapor degreasing; and conveyorized degreasing. Id. Evaporation of the solvent used during degreasing results in VOM emissions that react with other pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide to form ozone. Id.
 
In 1997, as a part of the 9% Rate of Progress (ROP) plan, the Board adopted control measures proposed by the Agency to reduce VOM emissions for cold cleaning degreaser operations in the Chicago and Metro-East ozone nonattainment areas. Prop. at 3. These measures, which are codified at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.182 and 219.182, lowered the allowed solvent vapor pressure for operations in the Chicago and Metro-East areas to 2.0 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) by 1999 and 1.0 mmHg by 2001. Id. The Agency estimated that the implementation of the lower vapor pressure would result in a VOM emission reduction of 11.35 tons per day by 1999 and an additional 11.68 tons per day by 2001. The 1997 ROP regulations do not allow the use of add-on controls for cold cleaning degreasers as an alternative to complying with the solvent vapor limit.
 
Diversapack, a printing company that recycles its solvents in a totally enclosed parts washer and uses add-on controls for the abatement of process emissions, contacted the Agency in May 2003, regarding a possible variance from the vapor pressure limits at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.182(c). Prop. at 2. Diversapack uses solvents compatible with its printing operations, but which do not meet the current vapor pressure requirements. Id. The Agency identified three additional point sources in the Chicago area that use add-on controls plus solvents that do not meet the lower vapor pressure limits. Id.  
 
In lieu of the site-specific rulemakings for each of the identified facilities, the Agency is proposing revisions to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218 and 219. Prop. at 2. Specifically, the Agency proposes revising Sections 218.182 and 219.182 to allow for add-on controls or equivalent alternative control plans as compliance options, as well as additional revisions concerning solvent sale, solvent use, add-on control testing, and recordkeeping requirements. Id. at 3.
 
The Agency notes that currently an 8-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) is in effect for the Chicago and the Metro-East areas, designating each as a moderate ozone nonattainment area. Prop. at 3. This 8-hour ozone NAAQS replaced the previous 1-hour standard on June 15, 2005. However, given that the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has a policy against regression, the control measures adopted to meet the 1-hour standard must still be maintained. Id. at 4. Further, under the federal Clean Air Act and the USEPA State Implementation Plan (SIP), failure to obtain equivalent emissions reductions from the cold cleaning sources would require the Agency to make up the deficiency through the implementation of contingency control measures. Id. at 3-4. According to the Agency, USEPA has indicated that the 95% control level proposed here is sufficient for this emissions source category. Id. at 4.
 

    
Two hearings were held before Board Hearing Officer John Knittle. The first hearing was held on April 19, 2006, in Chicago (Tr.1). The second hearing was held on May 17, 2006, in Edwardsville (Tr.2). During those hearings, the Board heard the testimony of Gary E. Beckstead from the Agency’s Bureau of Air. In addition, the Board has received two public comments in this proceeding; the first from the Illinois Environmental Regulatory Group (IERG), filed in support of the proposal (PC 1) on June 14, 2006; the second from the Agency, also filed in support of the proposal (PC 2) on June 15, 2006.
Beckstead described the proposal generally, and testified that the proposed provisions for add-on controls would result in less VOM emissions than using solvents meeting the currently required vapor pressure limits. Further, Beckstead stated that costs and inefficiencies would occur if the impacted sources were required to convert to the low-vapor pressure solvents.
In its public comment, IERG asserted that this proposed rulemaking rightly restores the option of add-on controls and adds the equivalent alternative control plan option, while remaining consistent with the intent of the 1997 revisions to reduce VOM emissions in the nonattainment areas. PC 1 at 3. IERG also opined that the compliance options provided by this rulemaking are justified historically, environmentally, technically, and economically. Id. at 5. The Agency stated in its public comment that, per the Board’s request during the first hearing, the Agency conducted an additional outreach effort towards retailers of solvent. The effort resulted in one association requesting to be added to the Agency’s mailing list for future related proposed rulemakings. PC 2 at 1.
As required by Section 27(b) of the Act (415 ILCS 5/27(b) (2004)), the Board requested that the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) conduct an economic impact study (EcIS) on this rulemaking. The Board’s EcIS request, dated February 22, 2006, was placed in this rulemaking’s docket. DCEO did not respond to the Board’s request. At the second hearing, the hearing officer noted the Board’s EcIS request to DCEO and DCEO’s lack of response, affording anyone the opportunity to testify. No one testified about DCEO’s lack of response. Tr.2 at 5-6.

During the first-notice public comment period, JCAR submitted no corrections to be included in the Board’s second-notice proposal.
 

SUMMARY OF PROPOSAL FOR SECOND NOTICE
 

The Agency’s proposal is unchanged since first notice. The proposal, as amended by Agency errata sheets 1 (ES1) and 2 (ES2), revises the Board’s cold cleaning degreaser rules applicable to facilities in the Chicago and Metro-East ozone nonattainment areas. The proposed revisions allow the use of add-on controls as an alternative to using solvents with vapor pressure of 1.0 mmHg or less. Likewise, the proposal also allows the use of an equivalent alternative control plan to comply with the control measure requirements. In addition, the proposal provides the testing procedures and recordkeeping requirements for add-on controls and equivalent alternative controls.
 
While the proposal discusses only the changes to Section 218.182 below, the proposal makes parallel changes to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.182(c) and (d) and 219.182(c) and (d). Prop. at 5. The Agency’s proposal seeks to add a new subsection at Section 218.182(c)(3)(A) that would allow the sale of solvents with vapor pressure greater than 1.0 mmHg in units greater than five gallons, but only if the purchaser provides a copy of a valid state or federal construction or operating permit or a copy of a Federal Register notice demonstrating that the source is in compliance with the add-on control requirements, or is exempt. Id. The proposed provision at Section 218.182(c)(3)(B) allows the operation of a cold cleaning degreaser using a solvent with a vapor pressure greater than 1.0 mmHg, but only if the source is in compliance with the add-on control requirements or is exempt.
 
The proposal sets forth control requirements for add-on controls at Section 218.182(c)(4).  Prop. at 5. Subsection (c)(4)(A) requires sources using solvents with vapor pressures greater than 1.0 mmHg but less than 56 mmHg to control their emissions to an overall capture and control efficiency of no less than 95%. Id. at 6; ES2. The requirements for equivalent alternative emissions control plans will be set forth at Section 218.182(c)(4)(B). These requirements stipulate that emissions from a solvent with a vapor pressure of 1.0 mmHg must be the basis for assessment of equivalent emissions for any proposed control plan. Further, if used as an equivalent alternative control plan, an add-on control must have at least 95% reduction in VOM emissions. Prop. at 7; ES2.
 
Provisions will also be added mandating the testing of add-on controls at Section 218.182(c)(4)(C). Prop. at 7. Under the proposal, currently operating add-on controls will have to be tested by March 1, 2007, and newly constructed add-on controls will have to be tested within 90 days after startup. Id. The testing procedures, monitoring, and recordkeeping provisions for add-on controls and equivalent alternative control plans will be consistent with the provisions in Section 218.105 and Section 219.105, which require that the control devices be operated and maintained at the manufacturer’s specifications and continuously monitored to assure that they are operating at the required compliance levels. Finally, recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the operation of add-on controls will be set forth under Section 218.182(d). All records must be kept for a minimum of three years. Id.
 
The Agency’s proposal, including its statement of reasons, is available through the Clerk’s Office in Chicago (312-814-3620) and on the Board’s Web site ( www.ipcb.state.il.us ) using the Clerk’s Office On-Line or “COOL.”

DISCUSSION OF SECOND-NOTICE PROPOSAL
 

 The Board has received no public comments during the first-notice public comment period. At second notice, no changes were received from JCAR and, therefore, discussion in addition to that contained in the first notice opinion and order is not required.
 
 The Board agrees with the Agency’s assertion that the technical feasibility of add-on controls for point source cold cleaning can result in waste being minimized through solvent being reused. The Board also agrees with the Agency that the proposal is economically reasonable and offers cost benefits comparable to converting to low vapor pressure solvents for some cold cleaning operations. The Board agrees with the Agency that additional costs and inefficiencies would occur if the existing sources are required to use the low vapor pressure solvents. The Board also maintains its proposed amendments to the “paper coating” note at Appendix H in Parts 218 and 219, which were inadvertently not made in consolidated rulemaking docket R04-12/20. These changes will maintain wording consistency in conjunction with the changes proposed to Parts 218 and 219.
 
Additionally, the Board has made changes in the effective date of the rule. The rule, as proposed by the Agency, provided that the requirements of Sections 218.182(c)(3) and 219.182(c)(3) would be effective after November 30, 2006. In order to avoid a retroactive application of this rule, the Board has changed that date to May 30, 2007. For consistency, a corresponding change was made to the added provisions mandating the testing of add-on controls at Section 218.182(c)(4)(C) and 219.182(c)(4)(C), and currently operating add-on controls will have to be tested by August 31, 2007, with newly constructed add-on controls will have to be tested within 90 days after startup.
 


CONCLUSION
 


The Board finds that the Agency’s proposed amendments are technically feasible and economically reasonable. The Board adopts the proposal for second-notice review by JCAR. The 45-day second-notice public comment period will begin on the date written notice is received by JCAR and the Board will accept comments only from JCAR during the second-notice period. See 35 Ill. Adm. Code 102.606.
 



ORDER
 

The Board directs the Clerk to cause the filing of the following rule with the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules for its second-notice review. Proposed additions to Parts 218 and 219 are underlined; proposed deletions appear stricken.
