Board
In this Notice of Public Information under Section 7 .2(b) of the Illinois Environmental Protection
Act (Act), 415 ILCS 5/7.2(b)
(2006), the Board explains why it has extended until August 6,
2007, the deadline for adoption and filing of rules in the following consolidated identical in
substance rulemaking : SDWA Update, USEPA Amendments (January 1, 2006 though June 30,
2006) R07-2 ; SDWA Update, USEPA Amendments (July 1, 2006 though December 31, 2006)
R07-1 I (consolidated) . The Board has not yet adopted a proposal for public comment in this
rulemaking, so there has been no Illinois Register publication in this consolidated docket . The
Board anticipates that it will adopt a proposal for public comment at its May 3, 2007 meeting,
and that the proposal will be filed by May 14, 2007 with the Secretary of State's Index
Department for publication in the May 25, 2007 Illinois Register
. If these events timely occur
and no additional delay is required to adequately respond to public comments, the Board
anticipates adoption of final rules at its July 26, 2007 meeting, and filing of the rules on or before
August 6, 2007
.
On December 21, 2006, the Board adopted an order to consolidate these identical in substance
Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) rulemakings. In that order the Board also found it necessary
to extend the one-year period for completion of these amendments . The adoption deadline,
based on the first federal action in docket R07-2, originally was January 4, 2007
. The Board
found that the statutory one-year period in this consolidated docket was insufficient for
completion of the amendments
. On April 19, 2007, the Board again extended the final adoption
deadline in this consolidated rulemaking.
The Board was unable to initiate this rulemaking earlier due to the unusually high demands on
staff resources over the last several months as a result of a greatly increased volume of complex
federal rulemaking, e.g. the very recently completed consolidated underground injection control,
municipal solid waste landfill, and hazardous waste update docket, R06-16/R06-17/R06-18
. In
addition, the federal rules have proven far more complex and voluminous than originally
estimated
. The Board estimates that the proposed amendments will be nearly 300 pages in
length, including more than 125 pages of new rules.
