On November 20, 2014, the Illinois Pollution Control Board adopted a first-notice opinion and order in this rulemaking initiated by IEPA. IEPA explained that recent legislative and rulemaking actions had created a gap between environmental media of concern that require notice, exposure routes identified in the Board’s Tiered Approach to Corrective Action Objectives (TACO) rules, and the Right-to-Know rules at Part 1600 (35 Ill. Adm. Code 1600).
IEPA proposed requiring public notice if (1) measured offsite soil gas contamination from the site where the release occurred poses an exposure threat above the appropriate TACO Tier 1 remediation objectives; or (2) measured offsite groundwater contamination from volatile chemicals poses a threat of indoor inhalation exposure above the appropriate TACO Tier 1 remediation objectives.
