IN THE MATTER OF:

NITROGEN OXIDES EMISSIONS FROM

VARIOUS SOURCE CATEGORIES:

AMENDMENTS TO 35 ILL. ADM. CODE

PARTS 211 AND 217

(Rulemaking - Air)

Adopted Rule. Final Notice.

OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by A.S. Moore):

Today the Board adopts its final order in this rulemaking amending Parts 211 and 217 of

its air pollution regulations and addressing emissions of nitrogen oxides (NO

On May 9, 2008, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency or Illinois EPA

or IEPA) filed a proposal under the general rulemaking provisions of Sections 27 and 28 of the

Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/27, 28 (2008)). On both January 30, 2009, and

March 23, 2009, the Agency filed motions to amend the proposal, both of which the Board

granted. On April 2, 2009, the Board granted the Agency’s motion for expedited review of this

After conducting three public hearings, the Board on May 7, 2009, adopted its first-notice

opinion and order in this proceeding.

33 Ill. Reg. 6896, 6921 (May 22, 2009). In that

opinion and order, the Board largely adopted the Agency’s proposal, including changes proposed

in the two motions to amend. At its meeting on August 18, 2009, the Joint Committee on

Administrative Rules (JCAR) considered the Board’s second notice proposal and issued its

Certificate of No Objection to the proposed rules. JCAR has proposed technical changes, which

the Board incorporates in its final rules.

Generally, the adopted rules amend Parts 211 and 217 of the Board’s air pollution

regulations (35 Ill. Adm. Code 211, 217) to control NO

emissions from major stationary sources

in the nonattainment areas and from emission units including industrial boilers, process heaters,

glass melting furnaces, cement kilns, lime kilns, furnaces used in steelmaking and aluminum

melting, and fossil fuel-fired stationary boilers at such sources.

In this opinion, the Board first provides the procedural history of this rulemaking and

background on regulation of NO

emissions. The Board then addresses technical and economic

consideration before reaching its conclusion. Finally, the Board’s order directs the Clerk to file

the adopted amendments with the Secretary of State for publication in the

Illinois Register

the Board incorporates in its final rules.

BACKGROUND ON REGULATION OF NO

is one of the primary precursors to the formation of ozone and is also a precursor to

the formation of PM

Statement at 2, 3.

The Agency reports that, “[o]n July 18, 1997, USEPA revised the NAAQS [National

Ambient Air Quality Standard] for ozone by replacing the 1-hour standard with an 8-hour

standard.” Statement at 3, citing 62 Fed. Reg. 38856 (July 18, 1997). Illinois includes two areas

designated as nonattainment for the 8-hour ozone standard. Statement at 3. The Chicago

nonattainment area includes Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will Counties, Goose

Lake and Aux Sable Townships in Grundy County, and Oswego Township in Kendall County.

. The Metro East nonattainment area includes Jersey, Madison, Monroe, and St. Clair

The Agency also reports that, “[o]n July 18, 1997, USEPA revised the NAAQS for

particulate matter to add new standards for fine particles, using PM

as the indicator, and

established primary annual and 24-hour standards for PM

.” Statement at 4, citing 62 Fed. Reg.

38652 (July 18, 1997). The Agency states that USEPA has recently strengthened the 24-hour

standard. Statement at 4, citing 71 Fed. Reg. 61144 (Oct. 17, 2006). Illinois includes two areas

designated nonattainment for the PM

standard. Statement at 4. The Chicago nonattainment

area includes Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will Counties, Goose Lake and Aux

Sable Townships in Grundy County, and Oswego Township in Kendall County.

Metro East nonattainment area includes Madison, Monroe, and St. Clair Counties and Baldwin

Township in Randolph County.

. at 5, citing 40 C.F.R. § 81.314.

The Agency states that Section 110 of the Clean Air Act (CAA) and other related

provisions require states to submit for USEPA approval State Implementation Plans (SIP) “that

provide for the attainment and maintenance of standards established by USEPA through control

programs directed to sources of the pollutants involved.” Statement at 2, citing 42 U.S.C. §

7410. The Agency further states that “[t]he CAA also provides for the State to address emissions

sources on an area-specific basis through such requirements as reasonably available control

measures (“RACM”) and reasonable available control technology (“RACT”).” Statement at 2,

citing 42 U.S.C §§ 7502, 7511a. Specifically, the CAA requires Illinois for each nonattainment

area “to demonstrate that it has adopted ‘all reasonably available control measures as

expeditiously as possible (including such reductions in emissions from existing sources in the

area as may be obtained through the adoption, at a minimum, of reasonable available control

technology) and shall provide for attainment of the national primary ambient air quality

standards.’” Statement at 2, 5, citing 42 U.S.C. § 7502(c)(1).

The Agency characterizes RACT as “[a] subset of RACM.” Statement at 6, citing 44

Fed. Reg. 53762 (Sept. 17, 1979). The Agency defines RACT as “the lowest emission limitation

that a particular source can meet by applying a control technique that is reasonably available

considering technological and economic feasibility.” Statement at 6, citing 44 Fed. Reg. 53762

(Sept. 17, 1979). The Agency states that “Section 182(b)(2) of the CAA requires states to adopt

RACT rules for all areas designated nonattainment for ozone and classified as moderate or

refers to particulate matter that is 2.5 micrometers or smaller in size.” Statement at 4.

above.” Statement at 6-7, citing 42 U.S.C. § 7511a(b)(2). The Agency further states that Section

182(f) of the CAA requires each state in which all or part of a moderate nonattainment area is

located to adopt RACT for major NO

sources. Statement at 7, citing 42 U.S.C. § 7511a(f). The

Agency notes that “Section 302 of the CAA defines ‘major stationary source’ as any stationary

facility or source of air pollutants that directly emits, or has the potential to emit, one hundred

tons per year or more of any air pollutant.” Statement at 7, citing 42 U.S.C. § 7602.

The Agency argues that these authorities “establish the requirements for Illinois to submit

RACT regulations for all major stationary sources of NO

nonattainment areas and

ozone nonattainment areas classified as moderate and above.” Statement at 7, citing 72 Fed.

Reg. 20586 (Apr. 25, 2007); 70 Fed. Reg. 71612 (Nov. 29, 2005). The Agency further argues

that, because Illinois includes nonattainment areas classified as moderate and above for the 8-

hour ozone NAAQS, it was “required to submit by September 15, 2006, a SIP demonstrating that

sources specified under the CAA were subject to RACT requirements.” Statement at 7-8, citing

70 Fed. Reg. 71612 (Nov. 29, 2005). The Agency claims that, “[o]n March 24, 2008, USEPA

made a finding that Illinois, among other states, failed to make a RACT submittal required under

Part D of Title I of the CAA for its two moderate nonattainment areas.” Statement at 8, citing 73

Fed. Reg. 15416 (Mar. 24, 2008). The Agency notes that “[s]uch finding starts the 18-month

emission offset sanctions clock and 24-month highway funding sanctions clock under Section

179(a) and (b) of the CAA and the 24-month clock for the promulgation by USEPA of a Federal

Implementation Plan under Section 110(c) of the CAA”. Statement at 8, citing 42 U.S.C. §§

7509(a) and (b), 7410(c).

In testimony for the third hearing, Mr. Kaleel stated that USEPA on December 22, 2008,

designated areas as nonattainment for the 24-hour PM

standard. Kaleel Pre-filed Test. 2 at 3.

He further stated that, in Illinois, USEPA has designated “the same areas designated previously

as nonattainment for the annual PM

. He added that “Illinois must develop an

attainment plan and adopt control measures needed to attain the 24-hour PM

standard within

three years of the effective date of U.S. EPA’s decision, and Illinois must attain the standards

within five years of the effective date.”

Mr. Kaleel also addressed the establishment of nonattainment areas for the 2008 8-hour

ozone standard. He stated that the Agency’s “initial proposal is for Illinois to recommend to

USEPA to establish nonattainment boundaries for the 2008 standard that generally match the

boundaries already established for the 1997 ozone standard.” Kaleel Pre-filed Test. 2 at 3. He

anticipated that USEPA will complete nonattainment designations in 2010, “initiating a new

cycle of planning and regulatory development.”

. at 3-4. He expects that, because NO

precursor to both ozone and PM

emission reductions will improve air quality.

He argues that “[t]he reductions provided by the subject NO

RACT proposal will help to meet

the new standards and should help to address any future requirements to implement RACT for

the new standards.”

. Specifically, he claims that, “[u]nless USEPA issues new guidance

control technology, we expect that this RACT proposal will satisfy requirements

to implement NO

RACT under the revised NAAQS for the source categories and geographic

areas to which this proposal applies.” MG Answers at 1.

ECONOMIC REASONABLENESS AND TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY

Although the Board in a letter dated June 6, 2008, requested that DCEO conduct an

economic impact study of the Agency’s rulemaking proposal (

415 ILCS 5/27(b) (2008)), the

Board received no response to that request. At the second hearing, the Board received no

testimony or comment regarding the absence of a response to the request.

In its first notice opinion and order, the Board addressed the economic reasonableness

and technical feasibility of the Agency’s proposal. The Board noted that the Agency had

negotiated with interested participants and agreed to revise certain provisions in order to

memorialize agreements with them. Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 217, Nitrogen Oxides

Emissions, and 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211, R08-19, slip op. at 20 (May 7, 2009), citing Mot. Amend

1 at 1-2; Mot. Amend 2 at 1-5. The Board noted that these amendments addressed issues

including, but not limited to, compliance deadlines, deadlines for installing CEMS, and

emissions limitations. Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 217, Nitrogen Oxides Emissions, and

35 Ill. Adm. Code 211, R08-19, slip op. at 20 (May 7, 2009). The Board found that, having

granted the Agency’s two motions to amend the proposal and having reviewed the entire record

in this proceeding, the proposed rules were technically feasible and economically reasonable.

In its second notice opinion and order, the Board again addressed the economic

reasonableness and technical feasibility of the proposed rules. The Board noted that, in its first

notice comments, the Agency had proposed additional clarifications of and correction to its

proposal. Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 217, Nitrogen Oxides Emissions, and 35 Ill. Adm.

Code 211, R08-19, slip op. at 36 (July 23, 2009). The Board found that, having incorporated

those additional clarifications and corrections and having reviewed the entire record in this

proceeding, the proposed rules were technically feasible and economically reasonable.

Since adopting that second notice opinion and order, the Board has adopted only non-

substantive amendments proposed by JCAR. Thus, the Board finds that the adopted regulations

technically feasible and economically reasonable and below directs the Clerk to file them with

the Secretary of State for publication in the

Illinois Register
