STAll: 

Pvllulian co!)if:~'st::~ 

The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ("Illinois EPA") certifies in accordance 

with 35 Ill. Adm. Code J02.202(h} and 102.500, and 415 ILCS 5/28.2(b), that it believes that this 

proposal for amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211,218, and 219 is a federally required rule 

under Sections 172(c)(l) and 182(b)(2} of the Clean Air Act ("CAA''). 42 U.S.C. §§ 7502(c)(l) 

and 751la(b)(2). 

The proposal for amendments is needed to satisfy Ulinois' obligation to submit a State 

Implementation Plan ("SIP") for sources of volatile organic materials ("VOM") emissions in 

areas designated as nonattainment with respect to the ozone National Ambient Air Quality 

Standard. Section 172(c)(J) of the CAA provides that states must include in their SIPs for 

nonattainment areas "reasonably available control measures," including "reasonably available 

control technology" ("RACT"), for sources of emissions. 42 U.S.C. § 7502(c)(l). Section 

182(b )(2) of the CAA provides that, for ozone nonattainment areas, the State must revise its SIP 

to include RACT for sources ofVOM emissions covered by a control techniques guideline 

("CTG") issued between November 15,1990, and the date of attainment. 42 U.S.C. § 

7511 a(b )(2). 
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) issued CTGs for Group II 

Consumer and Commercial Products on October 5, 2006, and for Group IV on October 7, 2008. 

The Illinois EPA proposed amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code Parts 211,218, and 219 in 

rulemakings Rl 0-8 and Rl 0-20 in response to the Group II and IV CTGs, respectively. Such 

amendments were subsequently adopted by the Board. 

On July 29, 2010, the Illinois EPA submitted the amendments to the USEP A as SIP 

revisions. The U.S. EPA refused to approve such revisions without additional amendments, 

which the Illinois EPA now proposes in the current rulemaking. Without USEP A's approval, the 

CAA requirements described above remain unsatisfied. 

These amendments are intended to correct the "deficiencies" in the Group II and Group 

IV RACT regulations and thereby satisfy federal requirements.

STATEMENT OF REASONS 

I. INTRODUCTION 

The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ("Illinois EPA") submits this 

Statement of Reasons to the Illinois Pollution Control Board ("Board") pursuant to 

Sections 10, 27, 28, and 28.5 of the Environmental Protection Act ("Act") (4151LCS 

5/l 0, 27, 28, and 28.5) and 35 Ill. Adm. Code 102.202 in support of the attached proposal 

of regulations. This mlemaking is proposed to amend recently promulgated regulations 

that conu-ol emissions ofVolatile Organic Material ("VOM"), which is effectively the 

same as volatile organic compounds ("VOC"), fi:om the following Group II and Group IV 

Consumer and Commercial Product Categories, in response to comments received from 

the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("USEPA"): Industrial Cleaning 

Solvents, Flat Wood Paneling Coatings, Flexible Packaging Printing Materials, 

Lithographic Printing Materials, and Letterpress Printing Materials; Miscellaneous Metal 

and Plastic Parts Coatings, Auto and Light-Duty Truck Coatings, Miscellaneous 

Industrial Adhesives, and Fiberglass Boat Manufacturing Materials. 

This proposed mlemaking is intended to meet certain obligations of the State of 

Illinois under the federal Clean Air Act (''CAA"), 42 U.S.C. § 7401 et seq. Specifically. 
the rulemaking is intended to satisfy Illinois' obligation to submit a State Implementation 

Plan ("SIP") to address requirements under Sections 172 and l82 of the CAA for sources 

of V 0 M emissions in areas designated as nonattairunent with respect to the ozone 

National Ambient Air Quality Standard ("NAAQS")- See 42 U.S.C. §§ 7502 and 75lla_ 

-":,~~;~)j~'~{~~fr) of the CAA provides that states must include in their SIPs for 

nonartainment areas ("NAAs") "reasonably available control measures'· ("RACM"), 

~~·~>::, ~~ ,"'.: :"~';:t~\i1~t.: 

':; !nclUd1llg'1ieasonably available control technology" ("RACT"), for sources of emissions. 

42 U.S.C. § 7502(c)(l). Section l82(b)(2) ofthe CAAprovidesthat for ozone NAAs, 

the State must revise its SIP to include RACT for sources ofVOM emissions covered by 

a connol techniques guideline ("CTG") issued between November 15, 1990, and the date 

of attainment. 42 U.S. C. § 7511 a(b )(2). 

Illinois is proposing amendments to regulations that establish VOM controls for 

Group II and Group rv Consumer and Commercial Products. The majority of these 

amendments is mandated by the USEPA, and is necessary in order to obtain USEPA's 

approval oflllinois' SIP submittal. Included in this proposal are amendments to 35 IU. 

Adm. Code Pan 218, Organic Material Emission Standards and Limitations for the 

Chicago Area: 35 IlL Adm. Code Part 219, Organic Material Emission Standards and 

Limitations for the Metro East Area; and 35 Ill. Adm. Code Part 211, Definitions and 

General Provisions. 

D. STATEMENTOFFACTS 

A. RACT Requirements 

USEPA designated the Chicago and Metro East areas in Illinois as nonattairnnent 

(moderate) for the 8-hour ozone NAAQS. which triggered requirements under the CAA 

2 
for adopting regulations that reduce emissions sufficiently to demonstrate attainment of 

the standard. Section 172( c)( 1) of the CAA provides, in pertinent part: 

(c) Nonattainment plan provisions 

The plan provisions (including plan items) required to be submitted under this 

part shall comply with each of the following: 

(1) In general 

Such plan provisions shall provide for the implementation of all 

reasonably available control measures as expeditiously as 

practicable (including such reductions in emissions from existing 

sources in the area as may be obtained through the adoption, at a 

minimum, of reasonably available control technology) and shall 

provide for attainment of the national primary ambient air quality 

standards. 

42 U.S.C. § 7502(c)(l). A subset ofRACM is R.<\CT, which is defined 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. See 44 Fed. 

Reg. 53762 (September l 7, 1979). 

Additionally, Section 182(b) of the CAA provides, in pertinent part: 

(b) Moderate Areas 

Each State in which all or part of a Moderate Area is located shall, with respect to 

the Moderate Area, make the submissions described under subsection (a) of this 

section (relating to Marginal Areas), and shall also submit the revisions to the 

applicable implementation plan described under this subsection. 

(2) Reasonably available control technology 

The State shall submit a revision to the applicable implementation 

plan to include provisions to require the implementation of 

reasonably available control technology under section 7502(c)(l) 

of this title with respect to each of the following: 

3 
(A) Each category of VOC sources in the area covered by a 

CTG document issued by the Administrator between 

November 15, 1990, and the date of attainment. 

42 U.S.C. § 75lla(b)(2). 

Sections 172 and 182 of the CAA establish the requirement for Illinois to submit 

YOM regulations constituting RACT for Group II and Group IV Consumer and 

Commercial Product Categories in ozone NAAs classified as moderate and above. 

B. Rl0-8 and Rl0-20 

On October 5. 2006, the USEPA issued final CTGs for Group II Consumer and 

Commercial Products. On October 7. 2008, the USEPA issued final CTGs for Group IV 

Consumer and Commercial Products. The USEP A required that states submit SIP 

revisions in response to the CTGs within one year. 71 Fed. Reg. 58745-58753; 73 Fed 

Reg. 58484. 

In rulemakings RI0-8 and RI0-20, the Illinois EPA proposed amendments to 35 

Ill. Adm. Code Parts 211, 218, and 219 in response to the Group II and Group JV CTGs, 

respectively. Such amendments were subsequently adopted by the Board. 

On July 29, 2010, the Illinois EPA submitted the adopted rules to the USEPA and 

requested that US EPA approve them as amendments to Illinois' SIP. Upon review, the 

USEPA informed the Illinois EPA that the revisions were insufficient and that US EPA 

would not approve them without additional amendments. Generally, USEPA identified 

the following issues with the rules: inadequate recordkeeping requirements for several 

product categories, insufficient VOM limitations, typographical errors, provisions 

requiring clarification, failure to include de:finitions for certain tenns, and failure to 

implement certain recommendations set forth in the CTGs. 

4 
The Jttinois EPA conferred with USEPA extensively in an effort to resolve these 

issues. Through such discussions, the USEP A agreed that several of its suggested 

revisions were not necessary. The USEPA, however, reaffirmed thatthe remaining 

changes were mandatory in order to obtain SIP approval and thereby satisfy the CAA 

requirements described above. The Illinois EPA's rulemaking proposal implements these 

amendments, proposes additional typographical corrections and clarifications, and 

amends certain provisions in response to comments received from industry 

representatives. 

C. Fast Track 

This regulatory proposal is properly submitted to the Board under Section 28.5 of 

the Act as a fast-track rulemaking. Section 28.5 provides, "When the (CAA] requires 

rules other than identical in substance rules to be adopted, upon request by the Agency, 

the Board must adopt rules under fast-track ruiemaking requirements." A rule is 

"required to be adopted" when the USEP A "is empowered to impose sanctions against 

the State for failure to adopt such rules." 415 ILCS 5/28.5. 

This rulemaking proposal satisfies such criteria. First, the proposed rule is not 

identical in substance to any federal regulation. The CTGs at issue here are mere! y 

guidance documents a state may utilize when making VOM RACT determinations for 

Group II and IV product categories. Second, the proposed rule is required to be adopted. 

As previously discussed, Sections 172 and 182 of the CAA require that Illinois submit as 

a SIP revision VOM RACT regulations for Group II and Group IV categories in ozone 

NAAs. The adopted mles previously submitted to the USEPA have been deemed 

insufficient and unapprovable, meaning that the CAA requirements remain unsatisfied. 

5 
Pursuant to Section 179 of the CAA, two sanctions are available to USEPA if 

Illinois fails to submit an approvable SIP revision: 1) the loss of highway funds; and 2) an 

increase in the emissions offset ratio for New Source Review. 42 U.S.C. § 7509. 

Further, if Illinois fails to make an adequate SIP submission. USEPA has the authority to 

impose a Federal Implementation Plan pursuant to Section 110(c)(l) of the CAA. 42 

U.S.C. § 7410(c)(l). Illinois EPA's submittal of its proposal as a fast-track rulemaking is 

therefore appropriate. 

ill. PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF THE PROPOSAL 

As described in detail above, this rulemal<.ing proposal has been prepared to 

address deficiencies in illinois' SIP submittal, as identified by the USEPA, in order to 

obtain approval of the submittal and thereby satisfy requirements under Sections I T2 and 

J 82 of the CAA. See 42 U.S.C. §§ 7502 and 751la. 

Additionally, Illinois is required to submit these SIP revisions before the USEPA 

can redesignate the Chicago and Metro East NAAs to attainment of the 1997 ozone 

NAAQS. Section J 07(d)(3)(E) of the CAA provides that the Administrator may not 

redesignate a NAA to attainment unless the State has a fully-approved SIP for the area 

seeking redesignation and the State has met all applicable requirements of Section 11 0 

and Part D (which includes the requirement that states adopt VOM RACT rules for 

categories covered by a CTG). 42 U.S.C. § 7407(d)(3)(E). In a September 17. 1993, 

guidance document from Michael H. Shapiro, Acting Assistant Administrator for Air and 

Radiation ("Shapiro Memorandum''), the USEP A confirmed, "[B]efore EPA can act 

favorably upon any State redesignation request, the statutorily-mandated control 

programs of section II 0 and part D (that were due prior to the time of the redesignation 

6 
request) must have been adopted by the State and approved by EPA into the SIP'' 

(Shapiro Memorandum, p. 2). 

On July 2. 2007, the Illinois EPA submitted to the USEPA an attainment 

demonstration for the Metro East NAA for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS. On March 

19, 2009, the Illinois EPA submitted an attainment demonstration for the Chicago NAA 

as well. Monitoring data indicates that these areas have, in fact, attained the 1997 8-hour 

ozone NAAQS, which qualifies them for redesignation to attainment. These areas cannot 

be redesignated to attainment, however, Wlless and until the lllinois EPA submits the 

additional USEPA-mandated amendments as SIP revisions and the US EPA approves 

such revisions. 

IV. GEOGRAPHJC REGIONS AND SOURCES AFFECTED 

The geographic regions subject to the proposed regulations are the two areas 

designated as nonattainment for the 8-hour ozone standard: I) the Chicago-Gary-Lake 

Counlj', !L-IN designated area, which includes Cook, DuPage, Grundy (partial-Goose 

Lake and Aux Sable Townships), Kane, Kendall (partial-Oswego Township), Lake, 

McHenry, and Will Counties; and 2) the St. Louis, MO-IL designated area, which 

includes Jersey, Madison, Monroe, and St. Clair Counties. 40 CFR § 81.314. 

The proposed amendments are generally expected to affect both new and existing 

sources that are covered by a Group II or Group IV CTG, are located in the Chicago or 

Metro East NAAs, and meet the applicability criteria specified in the proposed 

regulations. The Technical Support Documents ("TSDs") filed in the RI0-8 and Rl0-20 

rulemakings list the sources potentially affected by the proposed regnlations. The Illinois 

EPA incorporates by reference the TSDs into the current rulemaking. 

7 
V. TECHNJCAL FEASIBILITY AND ECONOMIC REASONABLENESS 

The technology for controlling VOM emissions from Group II and Group JV 

product categories is both technically feasible and economically reasonable. The Illinois 

EPA included a thorough discussion of the control techniques available to subject sources 

in the TSDs filed in the Rl 0-8 and Rl 0-20 rulemakings, incorporated by reference into 

this rulemaking. 

VI. COMMUNICATION WITH INTERESTED PARTIES 

The Illinois EPA engaged in limited outreach on this proposal, as the majority of 

the proposed amendments are required by the USEP A, and extensive outreach was 

already conducted in the Rl0-8 and RI0-20 rulemakings. In February, 2011, the Illinois 

EPA emailed a copy oftbe proposed rule to stakeholders that participated in such 

rulemakings. The Illinois EPA also incorporated certain revisions into its proposal in 

response to comments previously received from industry representatives. 

Vll. SYNOPSIS OF TESTIMONY 

The Illinois EPA plans to call Yoginder Mahajan, Environmental Protection 

Engineer, Air Quality Planning Section, Bureau of Air, Illinois EPA, and David 

Bloomberg, Compliance Unit Manager, Compliance Section, Bureau of Air, Illinois 

EPA, as witnesses at hearing. Mr. Mahajan and Mr. Bloomberg will testify and answer 

questions regarding the proposed amendments. Written testimony will be submitted prior 

to hearing in accordance with the Board's procedural rules and with Board orders. 

VIII. THE ILLINOIS EPA'S PROPOSAL 

Generally, the Illinois EPA's proposal implements changes identified by the 

US EPA as necessary in order to obtain SJP approval. Other changes clarify existing 

8 
provisions, correct tYPOgraphical errors, and amend certain provisions in response to 

stakeholder comments. 

35 Ill. Adm. Code 211 

Subpart B: Definitions 

Section 211.2358 Flat Wood Paneling 

The Dlinois EPA proposes amending the definition of flat wood paneling by 

correcting a punctuation error. 

Section 211.2800 Hardwood Plvwood 

The Illinois EPA proposes adding a definition for hardwood plywood, which is 

referenced in the definition for flat wood paneling. 

Section 211.3985 Natural Finish Hardwood Plvwood Panel 

The Illinois EPA proposes adding a definition for natural finish hardwood 

plywood panel, which is referenced in the definition for flat wood paneling. 

Section 211.4460 Panel 

The Illinois EPA proposes adding a definition for panel, which is referenced in 

the definition for flat wood paneling. 

Section 21 1.5140 Printed Interior Panel 

The Illinois EPA proposes adding a definition for printed interior panel, which is 

referenced in the definition for flat wood paneling. 

Section 211.6587 Thin Particleboard 

The Illinois EPA proposes adding a definition for thin particleboard, which is 

referenced in the definition for flat wood paneling. 

Section 211.6635 Tileboard 

9 
The Illinois EPA proposes adding a definition for tile board, which is referenced in 

the definition for flat wood paneling. 

35 Ill. Adm. Code 218/219 

Subpart A: General Provisions 

Section 2181219.105 Test Methods and Procedures 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (e) to add references to Section 

218.207(m) and (n) and 2!9.207(1) and (m), which were mistakenly omitted from the 

Illinois EPA's prior ru\emaking. 

Subpart E: Solvent Cleaning 

Section 2181219.187 Other Industrial Solvent Cleaning Operations 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (a) by changing the compliance 

date to January 1, 2012, and the applicability threshold to a monthly standard. The 

Illinois EPA also proposes specifying that emissions from cleaning operations identified 

in subsection (a)(2) are not included in the calculation to determine applicability. Next, 

the Illinois EPA proposes adding two references to subsection (e) to specify that certain 

sources exempt from other requirements in this Section are al~o exempt from 

recordkeeping and reporting requirements. The lllinois EPA recommends deleting 

exemptions for screen reclamation activities, in response to a USEPA comment that the 

screen printing emission limitation is sufficiently high to accommodate screen 

reclamation activities, and aerospace coatings and shipbuilding and repair coatings, in 

response to a USEPA cornroent that the exemptions should not be included because 

Illinois has no rules for such coatings. Finally, the Illinois EPA proposes amending the 

10 
exemption for medical device and pharmaceutical manufacturing operations to be 

consistent with language used in other exclusions. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (b) to add USEPA-approved 

additional compliance alternatives, and amend the VOM limitation and add-on control 

device alternatives, for sources that manufacture coatings, inks, adhesives, or resins. As 

the proposal removes the exemption for screen reclamation activities, the Illinois EPA 

recommends specifying that the VOM limitation for screen printing includes such 

activities. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (d) by adding work practice 

requirements for sources that manufacture coatings, inks, adhesives, or resins. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (e) by changing the compliance 

date for recordkeeping/reporting requirements and changing the applicability threshold to 

a monthly standard. The Illinois EPA recommends adding monthly recordkeeping 

requirements for exempt sources, as well as references to the new compliance alternatives 

for sources that manufacture coatings, inks, adhesives, or resins. Finally, the Illinois EPA 

recommends adding recordkeeping requirements for sources complying pursuant to 

subsection (b)(5), and for sources with cleaning operations subject to one or more of the 

exclusions in subsection (a)(2)(C)(v) or (xiii) of this Section. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (g) to further .clarify that in the 

event of any inconsistency between a Method 24 test for VOM content and the 

manufacturer's specifications, the Method 24 test shall govem. 

Subpart F: Coating Operations 

Section 218/219.204 Emission Limitations 

ll 
T11e Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (a) by correcting the compliance 

date in Part 218, by adding a definition for "occurrence," and by specifying that Section 

2181219.205 does not apply to the final repair coat limitation. 

T11e Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (q)(l) by deleting the definition 

for "marine engine coating," as the Illinois EPA is proposing to delete the category for 

such coatings, as explained below. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (q)(l )(A) of Pa11 :?.1 8 by 

effectively changing the YOM limitation for clear coatings to the limit set forth in the 

CTG. The Board added the current clear coating limitation to the rule in response to 

comments by a stakeholder, Electro Motive. The USEPA has indicated. however. that 

the limit must conform to the recommendations in the CTG. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (q)(l)(H) ofPart 218 to delete 

the previously-applicable YOM content limitation, which was inadvertently left in the 

rule. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (q)(l)(I) by changing the YOM 

content limitations for high performance architectural coatings. The existing limits 

reflect the recommendations contained in the CTG; however, the USEP A has indicated 

that such limits constitute backsliding, and that the proposed, stricter limits are therefore 

necessaJ-y. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (q)(l )(Z) by deleting the '·steel 

pail and dnnn interior coating" category, as such coatings fall within other categories 

contained in the CTG. 

12 
The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection ( q)(l )(AA) by deleting the 

"marine engine coating" category, as the USEP A indicated that the extreme performance 

coatings category is sufficient to address such coatings. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection ( q)(3)(E) to delete certain 

specialty coating categories that were carried over from existing regulations, as they are 

encompassed by categories contained in the CTG. The USEPA determined that it had 

not been sufficiently demonstrated that such coatings could not meet !he limitations set 

forth in the CTG. 

The lllinois EPA proposes amending subsection (q)(3)(F) to correct a 

typographical error. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (q)(4)(A) to increase the VOM 

content limitation for primers to the limit recommended in the CTG. TI1e USEPA 

approved the higher lin1it in light of the deletion of the specialty coatings categories m 

subsection (q)(4)(I).

that it had not been sufftciently demonstrated that these specialty coatings could not meet 

the limitations set forth in the CTG. 

Section 218/219.207 Alternative Emission Limitations 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (b) to clarify that, for coating 

lines subject to an emission limitation in Section 218/219.204 that is already expressed in 

terms of weight ofVOM per volume of solids, "S" is equal to such emission limitation. 

Section 218/219.211 Recordkeeping and Reporting 

13 
The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (c) and (d) to clarify that certain 

recordkeeping requirements pertain to each coating applied each day on each coating

recordkeeping for sources subject to the final repair coating limitation set forth in Section 

218121 9.204(a)(2)(E). 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (f) by requiring that sources 

collect and record all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the topcoat 

protocol referenced in Section 21 8/219.1 05(b ). 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (j) to specify that subject sources 

shall collect and record the coating category of each pleasure craft surface coating used in 

each subject coating operation. 

Section 218/219.217 Wood Furniture Coating Work Practice Standards 

The Illinois EPA proposes correcting a transcriptional error by amending the title 

of tlus Section in Part 218 to reference work practice requirements for flat wood paneling 

coatings as well. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (d) by adding an additional work 

practice requirement regarding conveying coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials, as 

recommended in the CTG. The illinois EPA mistakenly omitted the requirement fi·om its

equation, and add an equation specifying how excess non-monomer will be calculated. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (c) to clarify tbat the monomer 

YOM emissions calculated using Equation 3 cannot exceed tbe limit calculated using 

Equation 2. The Illinois EPA also proposes amending subsection (c) to clarify tbat the 

!6 
formulas in subsection (c)(3) calculate emission rates in terms of kg VOM/Mg resin or 

gel coat, and to define "VOM%." 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (d) to provide that control device 

alternatives must be approved as a SIP revision. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (e) to reiterate that, if a source is 

complying with subsection (c), the value of a certain term in Equation 5 shall also be 

used as the value of a certain term in Equation 4. The Illinois EPA also proposes 

correcting a typographical error in which a reference to Section 2!8/219.89l(b)(4) should 

reference (c) ( 4) instead. 

Section 218/219.892 Testing and Monitoring Requirements 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (a) to clarify when testing must 

occur. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (c) to clarify the monitoring 

requirements applicable to sources utilizing an afterburner versus those utilizing a carbon 

adsorber.

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (b) to provide that the emission 

limitations are in terms of mass ofVOM per volume of adhesives or adhesive p>imer, 

excluding water and compounds exempted from the definition ofVOM. 

The illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (c) to correct two equations in 

which "mass" should have been "volume," and to correct a subscript error. 

The Illinois EPA proposes amending subsection (d) to provide that control device 

alternatives must be approved as SIP revisions. 

Section 218/219.902 Testing Requirements 

The nlinois EPA proposes amending subsection (a) to clarify when testing must 

occur.

(1) request that the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity

conduct a study of the economic impact of the proposed rules. The

Department may within 30 to 45 days of such request produce a study

of the economic impact of the proposed rules. At a minimum, the

economic impact study shall address

(A) economic, environmental, and public health benefits that may

be achieved through compliance with the proposed rules,

(B) the effects of the proposed rules on employment levels,

commercial productivity, the economic growth of small

businesses with 100 or less employees, and the State's overall

economy, and

(C) the cost per unit of pollution reduced and the variability in cost

based on the size of the facility and the percentage of company
revenues expected to be used to implement the proposed rules;

and

Proposed Rule. First Notice.

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

On March 7, 2011, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency or Illinois 

EPA) filed a rulemaking proposal pursuant to Sections 10, 27, 28, and 28.5 of the Environmental 

Protection Act (Act). See 415 ILCS 5/10, 27, 28 (2008); Public Act 96-0308, eff. Aug. 11, 2009 

(P.A. 96-0308) (reenacting repealed Section 28.5). Among other documents, a Statement of 

Reasons (SR) and a motion for waiver of copy requirements (Mot.) accompanied the proposal.

The Agency states that its proposal seeks to amend recently-promulgated regulations 

controlling the emission of volatile organic material (VOM)1 from the following Group II and 

Group IV Consumer and Commercial Product Categories: industrial cleaning solvents, flat 

wood paneling coatings, flexible packaging printing materials, lithographic printing materials, 

letterpress printing materials, miscellaneous metal and plastic parts coatings, automobile and 

light-duty truck coatings, miscellaneous industrial adhesives, and fiberglass boat manufacturing 

materials. The Agency indicates that it proposes amendments to these regulations in response to 

comments by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).

The Agency filed the proposal pursuant to authorities including the “fast-track” 

rulemaking provisions of Section 28.5 of the Act, and the Board accepts the proposal for hearing. 

Section 28.5 requires the Board to proceed toward adoption of regulations by meeting a series of 

strict deadlines. The Act provides the Board no discretion to extend those deadlines. See 

generally P.A. 96-0308.

The first of those deadlines provides that the Board within 14 days of receiving the 

proposal must file the proposed rule for first notice under the Illinois Administrative Procedure 

Act (5 ILCS 100/1-1 et seq. (2008)). P.A. 96-0308 (subsection (e)). Section 28.5(l) provides that 

“[t]he Board must not revise or otherwise change an Agency fast-track rulemaking proposal 

without agreement of the Agency until after the end of the hearing and comment period. Any 

 1

 The Agency states that VOM “is effectively the same as volatile organic compounds

(“VOC”).” SR at 1.
2

revisions to the Agency proposal shall be based on the record of the proceeding.” Id. (subsection 

(l)). Therefore, the Board today directs the Clerk to submit the proposed rule to first-notice

publication in the Illinois Register without commenting on the substantive merits of the proposal.

In the same 14-day period, the Board must also schedule and provide notice of three 

hearings, “each of which shall be scheduled to continue from day to day, excluding weekends 

and State and federal holidays, until completed.” P.A. 96-0308 (subsections (e), (f)). Within 55 

days of receiving the proposed rule, the Board must hold a first hearing, which “shall be confined 

to testimony by and questions of the Agency’s witnesses concerning the scope, applicability, and 

basis of the rule.” P.A. 96-0308 (subsection (f)(1)). Then, “[w]ithin 7 days after the first hearing, 

any person may request that the second hearing be held.” Id. 

If it is held, the second hearing “shall be scheduled to commence within 30 days of the 

first day of the first hearing and shall be devoted to presentation of testimony, documents, and 

comments by affected entities and all other interested parties.” P.A. 96-0308 (subsection (f)(2)).

A third hearing “shall be scheduled to commence within 14 days after the first day of the 

second hearing and shall be devoted solely to any Agency response to the material submitted at 

the second hearing and to any response by other parties.” P.A. 96-0308 (subsection (f)(3)). The 

Board will cancel the third hearing “if the Agency indicates to the Board that it does not intend to 

introduce any additional material.” Id.

Accordingly, the Board directs the hearing officer to schedule expeditiously all hearings 

and other required actions in this proceeding according to the following statutory deadlines:

First Notice Filing on or before Monday, March 21, 2011 (P.A. 96-0308 (subsection 

(e));

First Hearing within 55 days of receiving the proposal, on or before Monday, 

May 2, 2011 (P.A. 96-0308 (subsection (f)(1)) see 5 ILCS 70/1.11 

(2008) (Statute on Statutes); 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.300(a) 

(Computation of Time)); 

Second Hearing within 30 days of the first day of the first hearing, on or before 

Wednesday, June 1, 2011 (P.A. 96-0308 (subsection (f)(2)); 

Third Hearing within 14 days after the first day of the second hearing, on or 

before Wednesday, June 15, 2011 (P.A. 96-0308 (subsection 

(f)(3)); 

Second Notice on or before Friday, July 15, 2011, “if no third hearing is held,” or 

Thursday, August 4, 2011, “if the third hearing is held” (P.A. 96-

0308 (subsection (n)); 

Final Order within 21 days of “receipt of a statement of no objection to the rule 

from the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules” (P.A. 96-0308 

(subsection (o)).

MOTION FOR WAIVER OF COPY REQUIREMENTS

As noted above, a “Motion for Waiver of Copy Requirements” accompanied the 

Agency’s rulemaking proposal. The Agency’s motion first notes that the Board’s procedural 

rules require it to file an original and nine copies of its proposal with the Clerk. Mot. at 1, citing 

35 Ill. Adm. Code 102.200. The Agency also notes that the Act requires it to submit to the 

Board information supporting its proposal. Mot. at 1, citing 415 ILCS 5/27(a) (2008). The 

Agency indicates that it relied upon the following documents in drafting its proposal: the Act, 

the Clean Air Act (CAA), and eight control techniques guidelines. Id. at 1-2 (¶¶2(a-j)). In 

addition, the Agency lists two technical support documents it seeks to incorporate by reference

into the Board’s regulations. Mot. at 2-3 (¶¶2(k)(1-2). 

The Agency first argues that the ten documents it relied upon in drafting its proposal “are 

readily accessible to or are within the possession of the Board.” Mot. at 3. The Agency adds 

that “[t]he Control Techniques Guidelines, which total over 600 pages, were previously 

submitted to the Board as part of the Agency’s regulatory proposal in rulemaking R10-8 and 

R10-20.” Id; see Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) for Volatile Organic 

Material Emissions from Group IV Consumer & Commercial Products: Proposed Amendments 

to 35 Il. Adm. Code 211, 218, and 219, R10-20 (Mar. 8, 2010); Reasonably Available Control 

Technology (RACT) for Volatile Organic Material Emissions from Group II Consumer & 

Commercial Products: Proposed Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211, 218, and 219, R10-8 

(July 9, 2009). Stressing the length and accessibility of these documents, the Agency “moves 

that the Board waive the requirement that the Illinois EPA provide copies of such documents.” 

Mot. at 3.

In addition, the Agency states that “[t]he remainder of the regulatory proposal consists of 

over 400 pages.” Mot. at 3. Stressing the cost of providing nine copies of that material, the 

Agency “requests that the Board waive the normal copy requirements and allow Illinois EPA to 

file the original and four complete copies of the documents.” Id.

Section 101.500(d) of the Board’s procedural rules provides, in pertinent part, that, 

[w]ithin 14 days after service of a motion, a party may file a response to the motion. If no 

response is filed, the party will be deemed to have waived objection to the granting of the 

motion, but the waiver of objection does not bind the Board or the hearing officer in its 

disposition of the motion. Unless undue delay or material prejudice would result, neither the 

Board nor the hearing officer will grant any motion before expiration of the 14 day response 

period. . . .” 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.500(d).

As noted above, Section 28.5 of the Act requires the Board’s rulemaking activities to 

follow a series of strict deadlines in scheduling and conducting hearings and issuing its opinions 

and orders. Under these circumstances, the Board concludes that undue delay would result from 

allowing the full 14-day response period to run to Monday, March 21, 2011. See 35 Ill. Adm. 

Code 101.500(d).

Having reviewed the substance of the motion and in the absence to date of any objection, 

the Board grants the Agency’s motion for waiver of copy requirements. First, the Board waives 
4

the requirement that the Agency provide copies of the Act, the CAA, and the eight control 

techniques guidelines, which the sources listed in the Agency’s motion as items 2(a-j). Mot. at 

1-2. In addition, the Board allows the Agency to file the original and four complete copies of the 

remaining documents comprising its rulemaking proposal.

CONCLUSION

The Board accepts the Agency’s rulemaking proposal for hearing and directs the hearing 

officer to schedule hearings as required by Section 28.5 of the Act. See P.A. 96-0308. The 

Board also grants the Agency’s motion for waiver of copy requirements. Finally, in its order 

below, the Board directs the Clerk to file the Agency’s proposal for first-notice publication in the 

Illinois Register.

Statntory Requirements 

On March 7, 2011, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) filed this 

rulemaking proposal pursuant to authorities including the recently re"enacted Section 28.5 of the 

Environmental Protection Act (Act). See Public Act 96-0308, eff. Aug. II, 2009 (P.A. 96-0308) 

(reenacting repealed Section 28.5). Section 28.5 requires the Board to proceed to adoption of the 

proposed regulations by meeting a series of strict deadlines. The Board has applied those 

deadlines to this proceeding in its opinion and order of March 17,2011, and in this notice of 

hearing and hearing officer order. 

Section 28.5 specifies the timing and purpose of each of three hearings and establishes 

other procedural requirements. Section 28.5(f)(l) provides that "[t]he first hearing shall be held 

within 55 days of receipt of the rule and shall be confined to testimony by and questions of the 

Agency's witnesses concerning the scope, applicability, and basis of the rule. Within 7 days 

after the frrsthearing, any person may request that the second hearing be held." P.A. 96-0308. 

Section 28.5(f)(2) provides that, if it is necessary, "[tjhe second hearing shall be 

scheduled to commence within 30 days of the first day of the first hearing and shall be devoted to 

presentation of testimony, documents, and comments by affected entities and all other interested 

parties." P.A. 96-0308. ' 

Section 28.5(f)(3) provides that, if it is necessary, [t]he third hearing shall be scheduled to 

commence within 14 days after the first day of the second hearing and shall be devoted solely to 

any Agency response to the material submitted at the second hearing and to any response by 

other parties. The third hearing shall be cancelled if the Agency indicates to the Board that it 

does not intend to introduce any additional material. P .A. 96-0308. 

Section 28.5(f) provides that "[t]he Board must require the written submission of all

Service and Notice Lists 

The Board will establish a notice list and a service list for this proceeding. All persons on 

the notice list will receive notice of Board opinions and orders and hearing officer orders. 35 Ill. 

Adm. Code 102.422(a). 

Under Section 102.422(b) of the Board's procedural rules, 

[t]he hearing officer may establish a service list for any regulatory proceeding, in 

addition to the notice list. The hearing officer may direct participants to serve 

copies of all docwnents upon the persons listed on the service list. For purposes 

of fast-track rulemakings under Section 28.5 of the Act, participants of record will 

be the individuals on the service Jist. 35 Ill. Adm. Code I 02.422(b ). 

In addition to receiving notice of all Board actions and hearing officer orders, persons on the 

service list will receive pre-filed testimony and other filings in this proceeding. The service list 

is intended for persons such as those who will testify and participate actively in this rulemaking. 

In its Statement of Reasons filed with its proposal, the Agency noted that the Technical 

Support Documents filed in rulemaking R10-8 and R10-20 list sources potentially affected by 

this rulemaking. See Reasonably Available Control Technology CRACTI for Volatile Organic 

Material Emissions from Group IV Consumer & Commercial Products: Proposed Amendments 

to 35 II. Adm. Code 211. 218. and 219, R10-20; Reasonably Available Control Technology 

(RACD for Volatile Organic Material Emissions from Group II Conswner & Commercial 

Products: Proposed Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211. 218. and 219, RI0-8. The Board 

begins this rulemaking proceeding by including in the Notice List each of the potentially affected 

sources listed by the Agency in its TSDs. While the Board will mail a request for a copy of the 
Board's 360-page March 17,2011, opinion and order and a copy of this hearing officer order to 

each of those potentially affected sources, the Board will provide copies of any subsequent 

opinions and orders only to those who specifically indicate to the Board that they wish to remain 

on either the Service List or Notice List for this proceeding. The Board requests that any entity 

wishing to remain on the Service List or Notice List provide the information requested in the 

form attached to this order as Attachment A to the Board by Friday, April 1, 2011. 

In order to clarify the record in this proceeding, Attachment B to this order contains the 

names and mailing addresses for each of the potentially affected entities listed by the Agency in 

its previous TSDs and to each of which the Board has mailed a request for a copy of its 360-page 

March 17, 2011, opinion and order and a copy of this hearing officer order. 

Note that, through the Clerk's Office On-Line (COOL) on the Board's Web site 

(www.ipcb.state.il.us), persons can request to receive electronic notification. This "enotification" generates an e-mail message when the Board receives and dockets a filing in this 

proceeding. These newly-filed documents will then be available to view, download, and print 

free of charge from COOL. Also through COOL, pre-filed testimony, public comments, and 

other filings are available generally for viewing and downloading. One exception to this 

availability may be voluminous filings, which will nonetheless be made available upon request to 

the Clerk's office. With the access to filings provided by COOL, persons who are not on the 

service list and wish to file only a public comment need not serve their comments on the service 

list in this proceeding. 

Pre-Filing Testimony 

As noted above under "Statutory Requirements," Section 28.5(1) provides strict deadlines 

for pre-filing testimony. In a "fast-track" rulemaking, "[t]he Board must require the written 

submission of all testimony at least I 0 days before a hearing, with simultaoeous service to all 

participants of record in the proceeding as of 15 days prior to hearing, unless a waiver is granted 

by the Board for good cause." P.A. 96-0308.

4) Statutory Authority: Implementing Section 10 and authorized by Sections 27, 28, and 

28.5 of the Environmental Protection Act [415 ILCS 5/10, 27, 28, and 28.5] 

5) A Complete Description of the Subjects and Issues Involved: The United States 

Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has issued Control Techniques Guidelines 

(CTGs) for the following Group II and Group IV Consumer and Commercial Product

Packaging Printing Materials, Lithographic Printing Materials, and Letterpress Printing 

Materials, Miscellaneous Metal and Plastic Parts Coatings, Auto and Light-Duty Truck 

Coatings, Miscellaneous Industrial Adhesives, and Fiberglass Boat Manufacturing 

Materials. In response to issuance of those CTGs, the Illinois Environmental Protection 

Agency (IEPA) proposed amendments to Parts 211, 218, and 219, which were adopted by 

the Board in rulemaking dockets R10-8, R10-10, and R10-20. The USEPA, however, has 

notified the IEPA that additional amendments are necessary in order to obtain approval of 

a State Implementation Plan (SIP) addressing requirements under the federal Clean Air 

Act for sources of volatile organic material (VOM) emissions in areas designated as 

nonattainment with respect to the ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard. This 

rulemaking implements those additional amendments, proposes additional typographical 

corrections and clarifications, and amends certain provisions in response to comments 

received from industry representatives. 

In Part 211, the IEPA’s proposal amends one definition and adds six new definitions. 

6) Published studies or reports, and sources of underlying data, used to compose this 

rulemaking: IEPA states that its regulatory proposal relied on several sources. Copies of 

the documents the IEPA relied upon are available for review with the Pollution Control
