    13.
    On or
    about
    June 28, 2007,
    Illinois EPA inspectors conducted a quarterly
    CCDD
    inspection of
    Respondent’s facility.
    At
    that time, waste material that did
    not meet the definition
    of CCDD was commingled
    throughout the facility’s CCDD fill material.
    14.
    On or about December 18, 2007, Illinois EPA inspectors
    conducted
    a quarterly
    CCDD inspection
    of
    Respondent’s
    facility. At that time, waste material that did not meet
    the
    definition
    of CCDD was again commingled throughout
    the
    facility’s CCDD fill
    material.
    15.
    Respondent’s site is a waste disposal site as that term is defined in
    Section
    3.540 of the Act, 415 ILCS 5/3.540 (2006).
    16.

    17.
    By allowing waste material that does not meet the
    definition
    of CCDD to
    commingle with
    the
    facility’s CCDD fill material, Respondent has violated Section 1100.201(b)
    of the Board’s Clean Construction or
    Demolition Debris Regulations, 35 III. Adm. Code

    18.

    (a) of the Act,

    (2006), as well as Section
    1100.201(a)

    In accordance with Title VII of this Act,

    received using a device
    approved by the Agency that
    detects
    volatile organic
    compounds. Such devices may include, but are

    Adm. Code
    1100.205,
    provides, in pertinent part, as follows:
    Load Checking
    The
    owner or
    operator
    must institute and conduct
    a
    load checking program
    designed to detect attempts to dispose of waste
    at the facility. At a minimum,
    the
    load checking program must consist
    of the
    following
    components:
    a.
    Routine Inspections
    1.
    An inspector designated by the facility
    must
    inspect every
    load
    before
    its acceptance at the facility utilizing
    an elevated
    structure,
    a designated ground level inspection area,
    or another acceptable
    method as specified in the
    Agency
    permit.
    In addition to
    a
    visual
    inspection, the inspector must
    use an instrument with
    a photo
    ionization detector utilizing
    a
    lamp
    of 10.6 eV or greater or
    an
    instrument
    with a flame ionization detector, or other monitoring
    devices approved
    by the Agency, to inspect
    each
    load.
    All
    instruments
    shall be interpreted based
    on
    the
    manufacturer’s
    margin of error. Any reading in excess
    of background levels using
    any
    of these instruments must
    result
    in
    the rejection of
    the
    inspected load. In
    addition, any
    reading
    in excess of background
    levels on
    any monitoring
    device
    used by the Agency during
    an
    Agency inspection
    must
    result
    in the rejection of the inspected
    load.
    *
    *
    *
    b.
    Random Inspections
    In
    addition
    to the inspections required under subsection
    (a) of this
