Re: R 14-07: DEFINITION OF VOM UPDATE, USEPA AMENDMENTS (January 1, 2013 

through June 30, 2013) 

Dear Dr. Hedman: 

Pursuant to Section 110(a)(2) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) (42 U.S.C. §7410 (a)(2)), and Section 

28 of the Illinois Environmental Protection Act ( 415 ILCS 5/28), the Illinois Environmental 

Protection Agency (Illinois EPA) submits the following amendments to the Illinois State 

Implementation Plan (SIP). The amendment updates the definition on Volatile Organic Materials 

in the Board's air pollution regulations to make them confonn with definition ofVolatile Organic 

Compounds in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211.7250 to reflect the United States Environmental Protection 

Agency's (USEPA) most recent exemption of chemical compounds from regulation as ozone 

precursors. 

The rulemaking was docketed by the Illinois Pollution Control Board (IPCB) as R14-7. The Notice 

of Proposed Rulemaking was published in the Illinois Register volume 37, issue 38, p. 15289, 

published September 20, 2013. On September 5, 2013, the IPCB reserved a docket for the routine 

updating of the NAAQS. Notice ofHearing was filed on the September 5, 2013. A public hearing 

was held October 31, 2013, in Chicago, Illinois with video monitoring from Springfield, Illinois. On 

November 21, 2013, the IPCB adopted a Final Opinion and Order.

Proposed Rule. Proposal for Public Comment. 

OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J.A. Burke): 

This rulemaking will update the definition of"volatile organic material" (VOM) in the 

Board's air pollution regulations (35 lll. Adm. Code 211.7150). The update is needed to ensure 

that Illinois' regulations reflect the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA) 

most recent exemptions of chemical compounds from regulation as ozone precursors. The 

update includes all USEP A actions in this regard that occurred during the peliod from January I, 

2013 through June 30, 2013. 

This opinion and order is organized into four segments in the following order: (I) an 

overview of this proceeding that describes the subject matter and regulatory context; (2) 

segments that explain opportunities for submission of public comments and participation at a 

public hearing that the Board will conduct for this proceeding, and which set forth the various 

currently projected dates towards completion of these amendments; (3) a segment that includes 

substantive discussion of the federal amendments and resulting Board actions, including tables 

that outline USEPA amendments that the Board has not followed, deviations from the literal text 

of the USEPA amendments, and corrections and amendments that are not directly derived from 

USEPA amendments; and (4) the Board's order, which includes the text of the proposed 

amendments. 

OVERVIEW OF THIS PROCEEDING 

Today the Board adopts a proposal for public comment that would add four compounds 

to the list of those exempted from the defmition of volatile organic material (VOM). The 

amendments proposed today respond to three USEP A actions that resulted in a single set of 

USEP A amendments to the federal definition of "volatile organic compound" (VOC) codified at 

40 C.F.R. 5l.IOO(s). VOM in the lllinois rules and throughout this opinion and order has the 

same meaning as does VOC in the federal regulations. Compare 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211.7150 

with 40 C.F.R. 5l.IOO(s) (2013). 

The Board reserved this docket to accommodate USEP A amendments to the federal 

definition ofVOM during the period January I, 2013 through June 30,2013. USEPA amended 

40 C.F.R. 5l.IOO(s) twice during that time, on February 12, 2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 9823) and 

February 15, 2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 11101). USEPA, however, subsequently withdrew the 
2 

February 15,2013 amendments on Aprill8, 2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 23149) in response to adverse 

public comment. I 

The USEPA actions during the period from January I, 2013 through June 30,2013 are 

summarized as follows: 

Februarv 12, 2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 9823): USEP A exempted four new compounds from 

the defmition ofVOM. The four newly exempted compounds are one hydrofluoroether 

and three hydrofluoropolyethers (HFEs): (difluoromethoxy)(difluoro)methane (CAS 

1691-17 -4), bis( difluoromethoxy)( difluoro )methane (CAS 78522-4 7 -I), I ,2-bis( difluoro 

methoxy)-1,1 ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane (CAS 188690-78-0), and 1-( difloromethoxy)-2-

[ ( difluoromethoxy)( difluoro )methoxy ]-1, I ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane (CAS 188690-77 -9). 

Februarv 15,2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 11101): USEPA exempted one new compound from 

the definition ofVOM. The newly exempted compound was a chlorofluoroalkene: 

trans-1-chloro-3 ,3 ,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene (CAS I 02687 -65-0). 

Apri118, 2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 23149): USEPA withdrew the February 15, 2013 

exemption. 

After July I, 2013, USEP A undertook one action related to actions taken during the 

January I, 2013 through June 30, 2013 nominal time-frame of this docket. That action is 

described as follows: 

August 28, 2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 53029): USEP A exempted lrans-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoro 

prop-1-ene (CAS I 02687-65-0) by the usual rulemaking procedure. 

The Board must amend the Illinois definition ofVOM in response to the USEPA actions 

of February 12,2013. The Board will include the USEPA action of August 28,2013 for the sake 

of expedience and administrative convenience. 

No action is needed based on the USEPA actions of February 15,2013 and Aptill8, 

2013. A brief explanation of the February 15,2013 and Apti!l8, 2013 actions is included in the 

discussion of the August 28, 2013 action. 

Section 9.l(e) of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/9.l(e) (2012)) 

mandates this rulemaking. That statutory provision requires the Board to exclude from the 

definition ofVOM those compounds determined by USEPA to be exempt from regulation under 

the state implementation plans for ozone "due to negligible photochemical reactivity." 415 ILCS 

5/9.l(e) (2012). In addition, Section 9.l(e) of the Act requires the Board to conduct this 

rulemaking pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.2(b) of the Act (415 ILCS 5/7.2(b) (2012)) 

for adopting rules that are "identical in substance" to the federal requirements. 

I The February 15, 2013 action would have exempted trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene (also called Solstice 

1233zd(E))(CASno.102687-65-0). See78Fed.Reg.11101, 11104(Feb.15,2013). TheeffectoftheUSEPA 

withdrawal was to put the addition of this compound at the proposed rule stage. See 78 Fed. Reg. 23149 (Apr. 18, 

2013); 78 Fed. Reg. 11101, 11102 (Feb. 15, 2013); 78 Fed. Reg. 11119 (Feb. 15, 2013). 
3 

Section 9.l(e) also provides that Title VII of the Act and Section 5-35 of the 

Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 ILCS 100/5-35 (2012)) do not apply to this type of 

rulemaking. Accordingly, the Board will not adopt a "First Notice" proposal, or a "Second 

Notice" proposal for review by the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR). However, 

as provided in Section 9.1(e) of the Act and explained in the two following segments of this 

opinion and order, the Board, before adopting final rule amendments, will provide notice of this 

rulemaking proposal in the Illinois Register, hold one public hearing on the proposal as required 

by the federal Clean Air Act (33 U.S.C. § 7410(a) (2012)), and allow for public comment.

PROPOSED SIP REVISION AND 

FEDERALLY REQUIRED PUBLIC HEARING 

The Board expects that the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) will 

submit the present amendments as a revision to the Illinois State Implementation Plan (SIP) for 

ozone pursuant to section II 0 of the federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. § 7410(a) (2012) and the 

implementing USEPA regulations. See 40 C.F.R. 51.102 and appendix V (2013). 

As authorized by 415 ILCS 5/9.1 (e), the Board scheduled a public hearing to occur in this 

rulemaking for the purpose of allowing interested members of the public to comment on the 

proposed amendments and the anticipated SIP revision that will result from their adoption. The 

Board will simultaneously conduct the hearing at two locations via teleconference so that 

persons at both locations may freely participate in the proceedings. Hearing information follows:

TIMET ABLE FOR COMPLETING THIS RULEMAKING 

Under Section 7.2(b) of the Act (415 ILCS 5/7.2(b) (2010)), the Board must complete 

this rulemaking within one year after the date of the earliest set of federal amendments 

considered in this docket. US EPA adopted such amendments on February 12, 2013. Therefore, 

the deadline for the Board to adopt these amendments is February 12, 2014. Adopting this 

proposal for public comment today, that Board projects the following dates for completion of 

intermediate activities in this proceeding as follows: 

Due date: 

Proposal adopted date: 

Publication submission deadline:

This estimated schedule of intermediate activities will allow completion of the 

amendments two months prior to the due date. Any unforeseen events could delay projected 

intermediate activities and ultimate completion of these amendments. Nevertheless, the Board 

intends to adopt amendments no later than February 6, 2014 and file them with the Office of the 

Secretary of State no later than the statutory deadline of February 12,2014. 

DISCUSSION 

Board Actions Directlv Based on Federal Amendments 

USEPA Action of Februarv 12,2013. On February 12,2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 9823), 

USEP A added four HFE compounds to the list of chemical species that are exempt from the 

federal definition ofVOC and, accordingly, are exempt from regulation for control of ozone 

precursors. USEP A further made limited corrections to exemptions in the existing text. 
6 

The newly exempted compounds are the following: 

( difluoromethoxy)( difluoro )methane2 

CAS no.: 1691-17-4 

chemical formula: CHF20CHF2 

alternative common names: HFE-134; l, l ,3 ,3-tetrafluorodimethyl ether; l ,l, l ', 1 '-

tetrafluorodimethyl ether; his( difluoromethyl)ether; ( difluoromethoxy)difluoro 

methane; di( difluoromethyl) ether; his( difluoromethyl) ether; l, l '-oxybis(l, 1-

difluoromethane ); oxybis( difluoromethane ); tetrafluorodimethyl ether 

his( difluoromethoxy)( difluoro )methane 

CAS no.: 78522-47-l 

chemical formula: CHF20CF20CHF2 

alternative common names: HFE-236cal2; bis(difluoromethoxy)difluoromethane 

l ,2-bis( difluoromethoxy)-1, 1 ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane 

CAS no.: 188690-78-0 

chemical formula: CHF20CF2CF20CHF2 

alternative name: HFE-338pcc13 

1-( difloromethoxy)-2-[ ( difluoromethoxy)( difluoro )methoxy ]-1, 1 ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane 

CAS no.: 188690-77-9 

chemical formula: CHF20CF20CF2CF20CHF2 

alternative common names: HFE-43-lOpccc; 1-(difloromethoxy)-2-[(difluoro 

methoxy)difluoromethoxy ]-1, 1 ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane; H -Gal den 1 040X; 

H-Galden ZT 130; H-Galden ZT 150; or H-Galden ZT 180 

USEPA exempted the four HFE compounds, all of which are sold under the trade name 

H-Galden, based on a 2005 petition of Solvay Solexis, Inc. The compounds can be used as heat 

transfer agents (secondary-loop refrigerants) and as fire suppressants. In their intended uses, the 

four compounds would replace ozone-depleting substances. USEP A determined that these 

compounds have photochemical reactivity potentials that are about two orders of magnitude 

lower than ethane (as factored based on their respective koH rate constants). USEPA further 

determined that the four compounds have low acute toxicity, no initation or skin sensitization, 

no detectible genotoxic activity, and low potential for developmental toxicity. USEP A observed 

that they have an ozone depletion potential of zero due to their lack of chlorine and bromine. 

USEPA observed that each of the four compounds has relatively high 20-year and 100-year 

global warming potentials (GWPs), but that they have GWPs which are comparable to or lower 

than compounds they would replace. 78 Fed. Reg. at 9824-26. 

In addition to adopting four new exemptions, USEPA corrected the chemical name "(I) 

1, I ,I ,2,2,3,4,5,5,5-decafluoro-3-methoxy-4-trifluoromethyl-pentane (HFE-7300)" to 

"1, I, I ,2,2,3,4,5,5,5-decafluoro-3-methoxy-4-trifluoromethyl-pentane (HFE-7300)" and changed 

2 It appears that "1,1,3,3-tetrafluorodimethyl ether" may be an alternative IUPAC name for this compound.

See 78 Fed. Reg. at 9826. 

Any person interested in the substance of the exemption of the four HFPE compounds 

should refer to the February 12,2015 Federal Register discussion that accompanied the USEPA 

amendments. Altematively, interested persons could contact US EPA as directed in the Federal 

Register notice. 

The Present Board Action. The Board has incorporated the four new exempt HFE 

compounds without substantive changes. Nevertheless, the Board found minor revisions to the 

federal text necessary. The primary revisions involve(!) the naming of the new HFE 

compounds in the list in Section 211.7150; (2) arranging the HFE compounds in alphabetic order 

in the list; and (3) not implementing USEP A amendments that are not necessary in Section 

211.7150. All of these revisions are itemized and summarily outlined in Table I, which begins 

on page I 0 of this opinion and order, and Table 2, which begins on page II Error! Bookmark 

not defined .. No further discussion of many of those changes will appear in this opinion and 

order. 

Naming the Newlv Exempted Compounds. USEP A codified the four new exemptions 

using the compounds' structural formulae and industrial designations. USEPA did not include 

any of the compounds' chemical name. The literal text ofUSEPA's additions to the listing of 

exempted compounds in 40 C.F.R. 5l.IOO(s)(l) was as follows (including the ending 

semicolon): 

HCF20CF2H (HFE-134); HCF20CF20HCFz (HFE-236cal2); CHF20CF2CF2-

0CHF2 (HFE-338pcc13); CHF20CF20CF2CF20CHF2 (H-Galden 1040X or HGalden ZT 130 (or !50 or 180); 

See 40 C.F.R. 51.100(s)(l) (2013) (including the February 12, 2013 amendments). 

The Board used the CAS numbers given for the four compounds in the Federal Register 

(see 78 Fed. Reg. at 9825, 9826) to search various websites3 for the compounds' chemical 

names. The Board consulted Table A-1 to subpart A of 40 C.F.R. 98 to obtain the name "HFE338pcc 13" for the compound that USEP A called "CHF20CF20CF2CF20CHF2 (H-Galden 

1040X or H-Galden ZT 130 (or 150 or 180)" by its condensed chemical formula. In this way, 

the Board identified IUPAC4 

names for all of the compounds and common names for three of 

them. 

The Board codified each of the four new exemptions by its IUPAC name. The Board 

retained the structural formula and the coded common name given by USEP A, with some minor

revisions. 5 Principally, the Board revised each condensed structural formula so the hydrogen 

atoms indicated are placed immediately after the carbon atoms to which they are attached. This 

is the more conventional format for each moiety of chain compounds. The Board added the 

coded common name "HFE-338pcc13" for 1 ,2-bis( difluoromethoxy)-1, 1 ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane. 

The Board did not add the several common names found and listed above for three of the HFE 

compounds. 

The entries that the Board has made in Section 211.7150 for each compound are 

summarized as follows:

Request for Public Comments: The Board requests comments on the incorporation of 

the four new February 12,2013 USEPA exemptions from the definition ofVOM. In particular, 

the Board requests comments on the chemical names added for each of the four compounds. 

USEPA Action of August 28,2013. USEPA adopted a direct fmal ru!e6 on February 15, 

2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 11101) that added one hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) compound to the 

list of compounds exempt from the definition ofVOM. That compound was the following: 

5 These revisions are itemized in Table 2, which begins on page 10 of this opinion and order. 

6 A direct final rule is an action taken without prior publication of a notice of proposed amendments in the Federal 

Register. Instead, USEPA delays the effective date of the direct final rule and expressly states in the Federal 

Register notice that (I) the rule will become effective on a future date, without further action by USEPA, unless 

USEPA expressly withdraws the rule by a Federal Register notice that is published before that date; and (2) US EPA 

will withdraw the rule if it receives significant adverse comment before a stated date that is about 45 days after the 

date of the Federal Register notice adopting the direct final rule. See. e.g .. 78 Fed. Reg. 11101 (Feb. 15, 2013) 

(particularly, the "Dates" segment). Simultaneous with the notice of direct final rule, US EPA published a notice of 

proposed rule in the Federal Register. See, e.g., 78 Fed. Reg. 11119 (Feb. 15, 2013 ). Upon receipt of significant 

adverse comment, US EPA will withdraw the direct final rule, leaving open the option of adoption by a future 

Federal Register notice affinal rule. See, e.g., 78 Fed. Reg. 23149 (Apr. 18, 2013). 
trans-1-chloro-3,3 ,3-tt·ifluoroprop-1-ene 

CAS no.: I 02687-65-0 

chemical formula: CF3CHCHC1

alternative names: (JE)-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene; trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-

trifluoropropylene; Solstice 1233zd(E) 

USEPA withdrew the rule on Aprill8, 2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 23149) in response to a 

significant adverse public comment. See 78 Fed. Reg. at 23149; 78 Fed. Reg. 11119 (Feb. 15, 

2013). On August 28,2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 53029), USEPA adopted the exemption after 

consideration of the comments submitted. 

USEP A exempted trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene, which is sold under the trade 

name Solstice !233zd(E), based on a 2011 petition of Honeywell Inc. The compound can be 

used as an aerosol and non-aerosol solvent; as a blowing agent for insulating foam for 

refrigerators, freezers, and hot water heaters; and as a refrigerant in commercial chillers and 

waste heat recovery systems. USEPA determined that the hydroxyl radical reactivity rate (kcJH) 

for Solstice is higher than the koH of the benchmark compound, ethane. USEP A determined, 

however, that the maximum incremental reactivity (MIR) is equivalent to ethane on a molar 

basis and is about two orders of magnitude lower than the MIR of ethane on a mass basis. In its 

intended uses, the compound would replace ozone-depleting substances that have both higher 

and lower koH and MIR values. USEPA further observed that Solstice 1233zd(E) has a very low 

global warming potential (GWP). USEPA further determined that Solstice 1233zd(E) has 

similar human health effects as the products for which it will substitute. The most significant 

include severe eye irritation, skin irritation, and frostbite. USEP A stated that precautions 

common among use of similar products would limit workplace exposures and address potential 

healthreisks. See 78 Fed. Reg. 53029,53030-31 (Aug. 28, 2013); 78 Fed. Reg. 11101,11106 

(Feb. 15, 2013). 

Any person interested in the substance of the exemption of Solstice 1233zd(E) should 

refer to the February 15, 2015 and August 28, 2013 Federal Register discussions that 

accompanied the USEP A amendments. Alternatively, interested persons could contact USEP A 

as directed in the Federal Register notice. 

The Present Board Action. The Board has incorporated the new exempt HCFC 

compound without substantive changes. Nevertheless, the Board found minor revisions to the 

federal text necessary. The primary revisions involve(!) the naming of the new HCFC 

compound in the list in Section 211. 7150; and (2) arranging the compound in alphabetic order in 

the list. As to naming, the Board observes that USEP A omitted the hyphen that should follow 

the structural prefix "trans." The chemical name should have appeared as "trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-

trifluoroprop-1-ene." The Board made this correction. These revisions are itemized and 

summarily outlined in Table 2, which begins on page II Error! Bookmark not defined .. No 

further discussion relative to alphabetization will appear in this opinion and order.

Deviations from the Literal Text of the Federal Amendments 

and Non-Federallv Derived Corrections and Clarifications 

The Board routinely examines federal amendments and the base text of rules open for 

amendments to find any areas that need correction or clmification. JCAR and the Office of the 

Secretary of State also routinely examine the text and suggest conections and clarifications. 

Sometimes suggestions arise from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, USEP A, or 

members of the regulated community. The Board often makes revisions as a result. 

The revisions thus made are not directly derived fi·om federal amendments. The Board is 

ever mindful of the limited discretion authorized in the context of an identical-in-substance 

proceeding. The Board is limited to "those changes that are necessary for compliance with the 

Illinois Administrative Code," "technical changes that in no way change the scope or meaning of 

any portion of the regulations," and "apparent typographical and grammatical enors." See 4!5 

ILCS 5/7.2(a) and (a)(?) (2012). Thus, the Board will only make minor, non-substantive 

corrections and clarifications in this context. These corrections are non-substantive in effect. 

Tables follow that document the corrections and clarifications made in this proceeding. 

The first lists the deviation from the literal text of the USEP A amendments involved in this 

proceeding. The second lists the correction made in this docket that was not prompted by federal 

mnendments. 

Tabulations of Deviations from the Literal Text of the Federal Amendments 

and Miscellaneous Board Housekeeping Amendments 

The tables below list numerous corrections and amendments that are not based on cmrent 

federal amendments. Table I (beginning innnediately below) lists a number of federal 

amendments that the Board has not included in this docket. Table I gives a brief explanation 

why the Board has declined to make each. Table 2 (beginning innnediately after Table I on page 

II) includes deviations made in this proposal for public comment from the verbatim text of the 

federal amendments. Table 3 (beginning immediately after Table 2 on page 12) contains 

corrections and clarifications that the Board made in the base text involved in this proposal. The 

amendments listed in Table 3 are not directly derived from the cunent federal amendments. 

Some of the entries in these tables are discussed further in appropriate segments of the general 

discussion beginning at page 5 of this opinion.

The structure of the corresponding Illinois provision, which lists each 

exempt compound on a separate line, does not require the use of 

punctuation to separate entries. 

50.100(s)(l)/ Add a hard hyphen to change "l,l,l,2,2,3,3-heptafluoro-3-

211.7150 methoxypropane" to "I, I, I ,2,2,3 ,3-heptafluoro-3-methoxypropane."/ 

The soft hyphen is appropriate, as the hyphen is not necessary unless 

the methoxy moiety appears at the end of a line and a line break is 

necessary or desirable.

HISTORICAL SUMMARY OF THE FEDERAL RECOMMENDED 

POLICY ON THE CONTROL OF VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS 

AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION IN ILLINOIS 

The Board traditionally included historical summaries of the State and federal definitions 

of VOM in each opinion and order. That summary traces the evolution of the federal 

Recommended Policy on the Control of Volatile Organic Compounds; USEPA's codification of 

the policy as a defmition in 40 C.F.R. 51.100(s); subsequent amendments of 40 C.F.R. 51.100(s); 

the several dockets that the Board has reserved to accommodate federal amendments, including 

indication of the several amendments to the definition of VOM that the Board has made based on 

USEPA's actions. 

In a break from past tradition, the Board no longer includes the lengthy summaries in 

opinions and orders relating to the definition of VOM. The Board maintains an updated version 

of the historical summaries on the Board's website: www.ipcb.state.il.us. Persons wishing to 

review the historical summaries of the federal and State exemptions from the definitions ofVOM 

must consult the Board's website or Board staff to do so. 

ORDER 

The Board directs the Clerk to provide notice in the Illinois Register of the following 

proposed amendments to the definition ofVOM at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211.7150:

Section 211.7150 Volatile Organic Material (VOM) or Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) 

"Volatile organic material" (also "VOM") or "volatile organic compound" (also "VOC") means 

any compound of carbon, excluding carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbonic acid, metallic 

carbides or carbonates, and anunonium carbonate, that participates in atmospheric photochemical 

reactions. 

a) This definition ofVOM includes any organic compound that participates in 

atmospheric photochemical reactions, other than the compounds listed in this 

subsection (a). USEPA has dete1mined that the compounds listed in this 

subsection (a) have negligible photochemical reactivity. USEPA has excluded the 

listed negligibly-reactive compounds from the definition of VOM for purposes of 

VOM limitations or VOM content requirements. However, USEPA has required 

that certain of these compounds be considered VOM for purposes of 

recordkeeping, emissions reporting, and inventory requirements, as described in 

subsection (e) of this Section.

c) As a precondition to excluding these negligibly-reactive compounds as VOM, or 

at any time thereafter, the Agency may require an owner or operator to provide 

monitoring or testing methods and results demonstrating, to the satisfaction of the 

Agency, the amount of negligibly-reactive compounds in the source's emissions. 

d) The USEP A will not be bound by any State determination as to appropriate 

methods for testing or monitoring negligibly-reactive compounds if such 

determination is not reflected in any of the test methods in subsection (b) above. 

e) The following compound is VOM for the purposes of all recordkeeping, 

emissions reporting, photochemical dispersion modeling and inventory 

requirements that apply to VOM, and it must be uniquely identified in emission 

reports, but it is not VOM for the purposes ofVOM emissions limitations or 

VOM content requirements: t-butyl acetate.

September 5, 2013 

For the sake of expedience, the Hearing Officer encourages the pre-submission of 

testimony and exhibits, but will not require such pre-submission. Anv person wishing to 

submit oral testimony, rather than pre-submitting testimonY for introduction into the 

record as though read, should notify the Hearing Officer no later than October 24, 2013. 
HEARING OFFICER ORDER 

Scope of the Heal"ing1 

The Board reserved this docket pursuant to Sections 7.2 and 9.l(e) of the Environmental 

Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/7.2 and 9.1( e) (2012)) for adoption ofmles identical-in-substance 

to USEPA amendments to the federal definition of"volatile organic compound" (VOC) (40 C.P.R. 

5l.l00(s) (2013)) that occurred during the period January l, 2013 through June 30, 2013. The 

Illinois definition of"volatile organic material" (VOM) is derived from and intended to be the same 

as that federal definition. VOM is intended by the Board to have the same operative meaning in 

Illinois as USEP A ascribes to VOC. 

Compounds exempted from the definition ofVOM have negligible photochemical 

reactivity. As such, they participate only minimally in formation of tropospheric ozone formation. 

For this reason, USEPA does not require that they be subject to VOM limitations or VOM content 

requirements, and USEPA does not allow the State to claim VOM credit for control of their 

emissions. 

US EPA amended its definition ofVOC on Febmary 12, 2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 9823) to add 

four compounds to the list ofthose exempted from the definition. Those compounds are one hydro 

fluoroether and three hydrofluoropolyethers (HFEs): (difluoromethoxy)(difluoro)methane (CAS 

1691-17-4), bis(difluoromethoxy)(difluoro)methane (CAS 78522-47-1 ), 1,2-bis(difluoro 

methoxy)-1 ,I ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane (CAS 188690-78-0), and 1-(difloromethoxy)-2-[(difluoro 

methoxy)(difluoro )methoxy ]-1, 1,2,2-tetrafluoroethane (CAS 188690-77-9). US EPA stated as 

follows with regard to uses for these compounds: 

These four compounds-HCFoOCFoH (HFE-134), HCFoOCFoOCFoH (HFE236cal2), HCFoOCFoCFoOCF,H (HFE-338pcc13), and 

HCFoOCFoOCFoCFDCFoH (HGalden 1040X and H-Galden ZT 130 (or !50 or 

180))-can be used in some heat transfer applications (as refrigerants) and as fire 

suppressants. 78 Fed. Reg. at 9824. 

USEPA subsequently amended its definition ofVOC on August 28, 2013 (at 78 Fed. 

Reg. 53029) to add another compound to the list of exempted compounds. That compound is a 

hydrochlorofluorocarbon: lrans-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene (CAS I 02687-65-0). 

USEP A stated as follows with regard to uses for these compounds: 

The petitioner indicated that SolsticeTM 1233zd(E) may be used in a variety of 

applications, including as a solvent in aerosol and non-aerosol applications, as a 

blowing agent in insulating foams for refrigerators/freezers and hot water heaters 

1 The Board does not usually hold public hearings on identical-in-substance mles. This hearing 

is held pursuant to Section 9 .l (e) of the Environmental Protection Act ( 415 ILCS 5/9 .I (e) 

(2010)), as required by Section 110 of the federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. § 7410 (2006)), 

because this proceeding would entail a SIP revision. 
and as a refrigerant in commercial chillers and waste heat recovery (Rankin cycle) 

systems. 78 Fed. Reg. at 53030. 

Sections 7.2 and 9.1(e) of the Act (415 ILCS 5/7.2 and 9.l(e) (2012)) provide the Board 

little discretion but to adopt amendments that are identical-in-substance to a federal exemption from 

the definition ofVOM. Section 9.l(e) states in pertinent part as follows: 

The Board shall exempt from regulation under the State Implementation Plan for 

ozone the volatile organic compounds which have been determined by the U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency to be exempt from regulation under state 

implementation plans for ozone due to negligible photochemical reactivity. In 

accordance with Section 7 .2, the Board shall adopt regulations identical in substance 

to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency exemptions or deletion of exemptions 

... in the Federal Register by amending the list of exemptions to the Board's 

definitions of volatile organic material found at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211. 415 ILCS 

5/7.2 and 9.l(e) (2012). 

Section 7.2 adds the following limitations relative to the scope of the Board's discretion: 

In the context of a mandate that the Board adopt regulations to secure federal 

authorization of a program, regulations that are "identical in substance" means State 

regulations which require the same actions with respect to protection of the 

environment, by the same group of affected persons, as would federal regulations if 

USEPA administered the subject program in Illinois .... [T]he Board shall adopt 

the verbatim text of such USEP A regulations as are necessary and appropriate for 

authorization of the program. In adopting "identical in substance" regulations, the 

only changes that may be made by the Board to the federal regulations are those 

changes that are necessary for compliance with the Illinois Administrative Code, and 

technical changes that in no way change the scope or meaning of any portion of the 

regulations. 415 ILCS 5/7.2 and 7.2 (2012). 

For these reasons, the Board lacks the discretion to address the technical merits of 

exemption of any compound or class of compounds from the definition. The Board has discretion 

only how best to incorporate the exemption into the Illinois definition ofVOM. 

The scope of the hearing will be limited to how the Board can best incorporate the federal 

exemptions into the Illinois definition ofVOM. 

Notice and Service List 

Pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 102.422, a notice and service list will be established. 

Persons on the notice list will receive notice of all Board actions and Hearing Officer orders. 35 

Ill. Adm. Code 102.422(a). In comparison, Section 102.422(b) states in part: 

The 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 documents upon the persons listed on the service list. *** For 

purposes offast-track rulemakings under Section 28.5 of the Act, participants of 

record will be the individuals on the service list. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 422(b ). 

Persons on the service list will receive notice of Board actions and Hearing Officer 

orders, as well as testimony and filings in the proceeding. The service list is reserved for persons 

who will be testifYing and participating in the rulemaking. With the development of the Board's

5) A Complete description of the subjects and issues involved: The following briefly 

describes the subjects and issues involved in this rulemaking. A comprehensive 

description is contained in the Board's opinion and order of September 5, 2013, 

proposing amendments in docket R14-7 for public comment, which opinion and order is 

available from the address below. As is explained in that opinion, the Board will receive 

public conunent on the proposed amendments for 45 days from the date they appear in

The R14-7 proceeding relates to the listings of compounds exempted from the State 

definition of "volatile organic material" (VOM) or "volatile organic compound" (VOC) 

in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211.7150 of the Illinois air pollution control rules. These 

amendments would update the definition of to con·espond with amendments to the 

corresponding definition ofVOC in the federal regulations at 40 C.F .R. 51.1 OO(s) that the 

United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) adopted during the period 

January 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013. During this period, USEPA amended its 

definition ofVOC as follows: 

February 12, 2013 

(78 Fed. Reg. 9823) 

US EPA exempted four new compounds from the 

definition ofVOM. The four newly exempted 

compounds are one hydrofluoroether and three 

hydrofluoropolyethers (HFEs ). 

USEPA further amended its definition ofVOC by exempting another new compound, a 

chlorofluoroalkene on February 15,2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 9823). The Board did not 

include this exemption in the present amendments based on the February 15, 2013 action 

because USEP A withdrew the exemption on April 18, 2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 23149) in 

response to adverse public comment. Instead, the Board added the exemption based on 

followingUSEPA action after July 1, 2013:

Section 211.7150 Volatile Organic Material (VOM) or Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) 

"Volatile organic material" (also "VOM") or "volatile organic compound" (also "VOC") means 

any compound of carbon, excluding carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbonic acid, metallic 

carbides or carbonates, and ammonium carbonate, that participates in atmospheric photochemical 

reactions. 

a) This definition ofVOM includes any organic compound that participates in 

atmospheric photochemical reactions, other than the compounds listed in this 

subsection (a). USEPA has determined that the compounds listed in this 

subsection (a) have negligible photochemical reactivity. USEPA has excluded the 

listed negligibly-reactive compounds from the definition ofVOM for purposes of 

VOM limitations or YOM content requirements. However, USEPA has required 

that certain of these compounds be considered VOM for purposes of 

recordkeeping, emissions reporting, and inventory requirements, as described in 

subsection (e) of this Section.

PURSUANT TO 415 ILCS 5/9.1(e) and 1 ILCS 100/5-70(b) 

Notice of Public Comment Period and Public Hearing for 

State Implementation Plan (SIP) Submittals for Ozone 

The Pollution Control Board (Board) is accepting public comments and will conduct a public 

hearing on a prospective ozone SIP submittal to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 

(USEPA). The Board will accept written comments on the proposed rule that will form the basis 

for the SIP proposal until45 days after the date of this issue of the Illinois Register, and a public 

hearing will occur in Springfield and Chicago on October 31, 2013. The Board presently 

anticipates adoption of new exemptions from the definition of volatile organic material (VOM) 

on November 21, 2013, or within a short time after that date. 

Section 9.1(e) of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) [415 ILCS 5/9.1(e)] requires the Board 

to "exempt from regulation under the SIP for ozone the [VOMs] which have been determined by 

[USEPA] to be exempt from regulation under [SIPs] for ozone due to negligible photochemical 

reactivity." The USEP A listing of these compounds is codified at 40 C.P.R. 51.1 00( s). The 

Board is required to adopt those exemptions using the "identical in substance" rulemaking 

procedure of Section 7.2 of the Act [415 ILCS 5/7.2]. The Illinois listing of these compounds is 

codified at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211.7150. 

On September 5, 2013, the Board adopted a proposal for public comment in docket R14-7 to 

initiate adoption of the latest USEP A exemption of five compounds from the definition of VOM 

during the period January 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013 and August 28, 2013. On February 12, 

2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 9823), USEPA exempted one hydrofluoroether and three hydrofluoropoly 

ethers (HFEs): (difluoromethoxy)(difluoro)methane (CAS 1691-17-4), bis(difluoromethoxy) 

( difluoro )methane (CAS 78522-4 7-1 ), 1 ,2-bis( difluoromethoxy)-1, 1,2,2-tetrafluoroethane (CAS 

188690-78-0), and 1-( difloromethoxy)-2-[( difluoromethoxy)( difluoro )methoxy]-1, 1 ,2,2-tetra 

fluoroethane (CAS 188690-77-9). On August 28, 2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 53029), USEPA exempted 

one hydrochlorofluorohydrocarbon: trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene (CAS 102687-65-

0). A Notice of Proposed Amendment appears in today' s issue of the Illinois Register relative to 

the docket R14-7 proposaL 

The Board expects that the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) will submit the 

present amendments as a revision to the Illinois SIP for ozone pursuant to section 110 of the 

federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. § 7410(a) (2011) and the implementing USEPA regulations.

1 HEARING OFFICER MCCAMBRIDGE: Let 

2 the record show that it's 1:15. This is the 

3 hearing in R14-7, caption, Definition of VOM 

4 Update, USEPA Regulations, January 1st, 2013 

5 through June 30th, 2013 and August 28th, 2013. 

6 During the time USEPA exempted a 

7 series of chemical compounds. On February 2nd--

B or 12th of 2013 -- let's see here -- USEPA 

9 exempted four compounds. They exempted them by 

10 chemical formula or alternative -- the USEPA did 

11 give some alternative common names. The best I 

12 could do for formal chemical names are the 

13 following: (difluoromethoxy) (difluoro)methane, 

14 bis (difluoromethoxy) (difluoro)methane, 

15 1,2-bis(difluoromethoxy)-1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethane 

16 -- and this one takes up a whole line by 

17 itself --

18 1- (difluoromethoxy) -2- [ (difluoromethoxy) (difluoro) 

19 methoxy]-1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethane. 

20 In that action USEPA also 

21 corrected a chemical name -- I'm not going to read 

22 it right now, and in a subsequent action, on 

23 

' August 28th, 2013, USEPA further exempted a fifth 

'··· 24 compound, which is named 
Page 5 

1 trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene. 

2 The Board adopted the proposal 

3 for public comment in this on September 5th. The 

4 notice of proposed amendment appeared in the 

5 September 20th, 2013, issue of the Illinois 

6 Register. That means the public comment period in 

7 this should end, I believe, November 4th or 5th 

8 next week. 

9 I subsequent to publication, 

10 I received a series of corrections from JCAR, and 

11 I believe that what JCAR gave me are actually 

( 

12 errors, but, for example, I -- the Board had 

13 proposed amending a chemical formula C4F90C2H5, to 

14 use the lower case for the digits. JCAR failed to 

15 over strike -- over strike the name that was being 

16 changed or underline the name as it was being 

17 changed to. And it was similar omissions with 

18 regard to the chemical formulas for 

19 1,1,1,2,2,3,3-heptafluoro-3-methoxypropane and 

20 1,1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4-nonafluoro-4-methoxybutane. 

21 Other than that, I -- you know, 

22 I don't see --I didn't we didn't get anything. 

i 

23 Oh, yes, and JCAR wanted -- 40

6 hearing, I might as well introduce myself. I am

DEFINITION OF VOM UPDATE, USEPA 

REGULATIONS (January I, 2013 through 

June 30,2013 and August 28, 2013) 

) (Identical-in-Substance Rulemaking- Air) 

) 

Adopted Rule. Final Order. 

OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J.A. Burke): 

This rulemaking updates the defmition of "volatile organic material" (VOM) in the 

Board's air pollution regulations (35 lll. Adm. Code 211.7150). The update is needed to ensure 

that Illinois' regulations reflect the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA) 

most recent exemptions of chemical compounds from regulation as ozone precursors. The 

update includes all USEP A actions in this regard that occurred during the period from January I, 

2013 through June 30, 2013. 

This opinion and order is organized into four segments in the following order: (I) an 

overview of this proceeding that describes the subject matter and regulatory context; (2) 

segments that review public comments and the record assembled at a public that the Board held 

in this proceeding; (3) a segment that includes substantive discussion of the federal amendments 

and resulting Board actions, including tables that outline USEPA amendments that the Board has 

not followed, deviations from the literal text of the USEPA amendments, corrections and 

amendments that are not directly derived from USEPA amendments, and revisions since the 

September 5, 2013 proposal for public comment; and (4) the Board's order, which includes the 

text of the adopted amendments. 

OVERVIEW OF THIS PROCEEDING 

Today the Board adopts amendments that add four compounds to the list of those 

exempted from the definition of volatile organic material (VOM). The amendments adopted 

today respond to three USEPA actions that resulted in a single set ofUSEPA amendments to the 

federal definition of"volatile organic compound" (VOC) codified at 40 C.F.R. 5l.IOO(s). VOM 

in the Illinois rules and throughout this opinion and order has the same meaning as does VOC in 

the federal regulations. Compare 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211.7150 with 40 C.F.R. 5l.IOO(s) (2013). 

The Board reserved this docket to accommodate USEP A amendments to the federal 

definition ofVOM during the period January I, 2013 through June 30,2013. USEPA amended 

40 C.F.R. 5l.IOO(s) twice dming that time, on February 12, 2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 9823) and 

February 15,2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 11101). USEPA, however, subsequently withdrew the 
2 

February 15, 2013 amendments on April18, 2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 23149) in response to adverse 

public comment. 1 

The USEPA actions during the period from January 1, 2013 through June 30,2013 are 

summarized as follows: 

Februarv 12, 2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 9823): USEPA exempted four new compounds from 

the definition ofVOM. The four newly exempted compounds are one hydrofluoroether 

and three hydrofluoropolyethers (HFEs): (difluoromethoxy)(difluoro)methane (CAS 

1691-17-4 ), bis( difluoromethoxy)( difluoro )methane (CAS 78522-4 7 -I), I ,2-bis( difluoro 

methoxy)-1 ,1 ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane (CAS 188690-78-0), and 1-(difloromethoxy)-2-

[(difluoromethoxy)(difluoro )methoxy]-1, 1 ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane (CAS 188690-77-9). 

Februarv 15, 2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 11101): USEPA exempted one new compound from 

the definition ofVOM. The newly exempted compound was a chlorofluoroalkene: 

/rans-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene (CAS 1 02687-65-0). 

April18, 2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 23149): USEPA withdrew the February 15,2013 

exemption. 

After July 1, 2013, USEP A undertook one action related to actions taken during the 

January 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013 nominal time-frame of this docket. That action is 

described as follows: 

August 28,2013 (78 Fed. Reg. 53029): USEPA exempted trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-tritluoro 

prop-1-ene (CAS 102687-65-0) by the usual rulemaking procedure. 

The Board amends the Illinois defmition of VOM in response to the USEP A actions of 

February 12, 2013. The Board includes the USEPA action of August 28, 2013 for the sake of 

expedience and administrative convenience. 

No action is needed based on the USEPA actions of February 15,2013 and April18, 

2013. A brief explanation of the February 15, 2013 and April 18, 2013 actions is included in the 

discussion of the August 28, 2013 action. 

Section 9.1 (e) of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/9.1(e) (2012)) 

mandates this rulemaking. That statutory provision requires the Board to exclude from the 

definition ofVOM those compounds detennined by USEPA to be exempt from regulation under 

the state implementation plans for ozone "due to negligible photochemical reactivity." 415 ILCS 

5/9.1(e) (2012). In addition, Section 9.1(e) of the Act requires the Board to conduct this 

mlemaking pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.2(b) of the Act (415 ILCS 5/7.2(b) (2012)) 

for adopting rules that are "identical in substance" to the federal requirements. 

1 The February 15,2013 action would have exempted trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene (also called Solstice 

1233zd(E)) (CAS no. 102687-65-0). See 78 Fed. Reg. 11101, 11104 (Feb. 15, 2013). The effect of the US EPA 

withdrawal was to put the addition of this compound at the proposed rule stage. See 78 Fed. Reg. 23149 (Apr. 18, 

2013); 78 Fed. Reg. 11101, 11102 (Feb. 15, 2013); 78 Fed. Reg. 11119 (Feb. 15, 2013). 
3 

Section 9.l(e) also provides that Title VII of the Act and Section 5-35 of the 

Administrative Procedure Act (AP A) (5 ILCS 100/5-35 (2012)) do not apply to this type of 

rulemaking. Accordingly, the Board did not adopt a "First Notice" proposal, or a "Second 

Notice" proposal for review by the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR). However, 

as provided in Section 9.l(e) of the Act and explained in the two following segments of this 

opinion and order, the Board, did provide notice of the rulemaking proposal in the Illinois 

Register before adopting the amendments, held one public hearing on the proposal as required by 

the federal Clean Air Act (33 U.S.C. § 7410(a) (2012)), and allowed for public comment. 

PUBLIC COMMENTS 

The Board adopted a proposal for public comment in this proceeding on September 5, 

2013. A Notice of Proposed Amendment appeared in the September 20,2013 issue of the 

Illinois Register, at 37 III. Reg. 15289. The Board held a public hea1ing in this matter on 

October 31, 2013 and received public comment on the proposal until November 4, 2013 (45 days 

after the date of Illinois Register publication. 

Agency personnel attended the public hearing, but did not present testimony or 

comments. The Board did not receive public comments on the proposed amendment. 

The Board also received a document from JCAR that indicates a limited number of 

revisions that JCAR has suggested for the text. The Board has revised the text in response to 

some of the JCAR suggestions and has declined to follow others. Table 4 below (beginning on 

page II) indicates the suggestions that the Board has followed. Table 5 (beginning on page 12) 

explains the suggestions that the Board has declined. 

PROPOSED SIP REVISION AND 

FEDERALLY REQUIRED PUBLIC HEARING 

The Board expects that the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) will 

submit the present amendments as a revision to the Illinois State Implementation Plan (SIP) for 

ozone pursuant to section 110 of the federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. § 741 O(a) (2012) and the 

implementing USEPA regulations. See 40 C.F.R. 51.102 and appendix V (2013). 

As authorized by 415 ILCS 5/9 .I (e), the Board held a public hearing on October 31, 

2013. This was to allow interested members of the public to comment on the proposed 

amendments and the anticipated SIP revision that will result from their adoption. The Board 

simultaneously conducted the hearing via teleconference at Chicago and Springfield, so that 

persons at both locations may freely participate in the proceedings. 

The record in this docket includes all documents pertaining to this proceeding. All 

documents in the record are publicly available for inspection and copying as provided in 2 III. 

Adm. Code 2175 (2012). The documents are also freely available online at the Board's 

webpage: www.ipcb.state.il.us. 

The record does not include a copy of the following documents, which are all otherwise 

publicly available: 
4 

• The Federal Register notice that prompted this action (referenced elsewhere in this 

opinion and order); 

• Federal statutes and regulations referenced in this opinion and order; and 

• Illinois statutes and regulations referenced in this opinion and order. 

DISCUSSION 

Board Actions Directlv Based on Federal Amendments 

USEPA Action of Februarv 12,2013. On February 12,2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 9823), 

USEP A added four HFE compounds to the list of chemical species that are exempt from the 

federal definition ofVOC and, accordingly, are exempt from regulation for control of ozone 

precursors. USEP A further made limited corrections to exemptions in the existing text. 

The newly exempted compounds are the following: 

( difluoromethoxy)( difluoro )methane2 

CAS no.: 1691-17-4 

chemical formula: CHFzOCHF2 

alternative common names: HFE-134; 1,1 ,3,3-tetrafluorodimethyl ether; 1,1 ,1 ',1 '-

tetrafluorodimethyl ether; bis( difluoromethyl)ether; ( difluoromethoxy)difluoro 

methane; di( difluoromethyl) ether; bis( difluoromethyl) ether; 1,1 '-oxybis( 1, 1-

difluoromethane ); oxybis( difluoromethane ); tetrafluorodimethyl ether 

bis( difluoromethoxy)( difluoro )methane 

CAS no.: 78522-47-1 

chemical formula: CHF20CF20CHF2 

alternative common names: HFE-236cal2; bis( difluoromethoxy)difluoromethane 

1 ,2-bis( difluoromethoxy)-1, 1 ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane 

CAS no.: 188690-78-0 

chemical formula: CHF20CF2CF20CHF2 

alternative name: HFE-338pccl3 

1-( difloromethoxy)-2-[ ( difluoromethoxy)( difluoro )methoxy ]-1, 1 ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane 

CAS no.: 188690-77-9 

chemical formula: CHF20CF20CF2CF20CHFz 

alternative common names: HFE-43-1 Opccc; 1-( difloromethoxy)-2-[(difluoro 

methoxy)difluoromethoxy ]-1, 1 ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane; H -Gal den 1 040X; 

H-Galden ZT 130; H-Galden ZT 150; or H-Galden ZT 180 

USEPA exempted the four HFE compounds, all of which are sold under the trade name 

H-Galden, based on a 2005 petition of Solvay Solexis, Inc. The compounds can be used as heat 

transfer agents (secondary-loop refrigerants) and as fire suppressants. In their intended uses, the 

four compounds would replace ozone-depleting substances. USEP A detennined that these 

2 It appears that "1,1,3,3-tetrafluorodimethyl ether" may be an alternative IUPAC name for this compound. 
5 

compounds have photochemical reactivity potentials that are about two orders of magnitude 

lower than ethane (as factored based on their respective koH rate constants). USEPA further 

determined that the four compounds have low acute toxicity, no initation or skin sensitization, 

no detectible genotoxic activity, and low potential for developmental toxicity. USEP A observed 

that they have an ozone depletion potential of zero due to their lack of chlorine and bromine. 

USEP A observed that each of the four compounds has relatively high 20-year and I 00-year 

global warming potentials (GWPs), but that they have GWPs which are comparable to or lower 

than compounds they would replace. 78 Fed. Reg. at 9824-26. 

In addition to adopting four new exemptions, USEP A conected the chemical name "(I) 

I, I, I ,2,2,3,4,5,5,5-decafluoro-3-methoxy-4-trifluoromethyl-pentane (HFE-7300)" to 

"I, I, I ,2,2,3,4,5,5,5-decafluoro-3-methoxy-4-trifluoromethyl-pentane (HFE-7300)" and changed 

several commas to semicolons in the listing of exempt compounds in 40 C.F.R. 5l.IOO(s)(I). 

See 78 Fed. Reg. at 9826. 

Any person interested in the substance of the exemption of the four HFPE compounds 

should refer to the February 12, 2015 Federal Register discussion that accompanied the USEPA 

amendments. Alternatively, interested persons could contact USEP A as directed in the Federal 

Register notice. 

The Present Board Action. The Board has incorporated the four new exempt HFE 

compounds without substantive changes. Nevertheless, the Board found minor revisions to the 

federal text necessary. The primary revisions involve(!) the naming of the new HFE 

compounds in the list in Section 211.7150; (2) ananging the HFE compounds in alphabetic order 

in the list; and (3) not implementing USEPA amendments that are not necessary in Section 

211.7150. All of these revisions are itemized and summarily outlined in Table I, which begins 

on page 9 of this opinion and order, and Table 2, which begins on page 9Error! Bookmark not 

defined .. No further discussion of many of those changes will appear in this opinion and order. 

Naming the Newlv Exempted Compounds. USEP A codified the four new exemptions 

using the compounds' structural fmmulae and industrial designations. USEP A did not include 

any of the compounds' chemical name. The literal text of USEP A's additions to the listing of 

exempted compounds in40 C.F.R. 5l.IOO(s)(I) was as follows (including the ending 

semicolon): 

HCF20CF2H (HFE-134); HCFzOCFzOHCFz (HFE-236cal2); CHFzOCFzCF2-

0CHF2 (HFE-338pcc13); CHF20CF20CF2CF20CHF2 (H-Galden 1040X or HGalden ZT 130 (or !50 or 180); 

See 40 C.P.R. 5l.IOO(s)(I) (2013) (including the February 12,2013 amendments). 

The Board used the CAS numbers given for the four compounds in the Federal Register 

(see 78 Fed. Reg. at 9825, 9826) to search various websites3 for the compounds' chemical 

3 The websites included the following websites: National Institute of Standards and Technology, Material 

Measurement Laboratory, Standard Reference Data Program, Data Gateway, Chemistry WebBook, Search for 

Species by CAS Registry Number (webbook.nist.gov/chemistry/cas-ser.html); cas.ChemNet.com 

(www.chemnet.com/cas/); Chemical Book (www.chemicalbook.com); Royal Society for Chemistry, Cambridge 
6 

names. The Board consulted Table A-1 to subpart A of 40 C.P.R. 98 to obtain the name "HFE338pccl3" for the compound that USEPA called "CHF20CF20CF2CF20CHF2 (H-Galden 

1040X or H-Galden ZT 130 (or !50 or 180)" by its condensed chemical formula. In this way, 

the Board identified IUPAC4 names for all of the compounds and common names for three of 

them. 

The Board codified each of the four new exemptions by its IUPAC name. The Board 

retained the structural fotmula and the coded common name given by USEP A, with some minor 

revisions. 5 Principally, the Board revised each condensed structural formula so the hydrogen 

atoms indicated are placed immediately after the carbon atoms to which they are attached. This 

is the more conventional format for each moiety of chain compounds. The Board added the 

coded common name "HFE-338pccl3" for I ,2-bis(difluoromethoxy)-1 ,I ,2,2-tetrafluoroethane. 

The Board did not add the several common names found and listed above for three of the HFE 

compounds. 

The entries that the Board has made in Section 211.7150 for each compound are 

summarized as follows:

Request for Public Comments: The Board requested comments on the incorporation of 

the four new February 12, 2013 USEPA exemptions from the definition ofVOM. In particular, 

the Board requested comments on the chemical names added for each of the four compounds. 

The Board received no comments in response.

USEPA Action of August 28,2013. USEPA adopted a direct final rule 6 on February 15, 

2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 11101) that added one hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) compound to the 

list of compounds exempt fi·om the definition ofVOM. That compound was the following: 

trans-l-chloro-3,3 ,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene 

CAS no.: 102687-65-0 

chemical fmmula: CF3CHCHC1 

alternative names: (1 E)-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene; trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-

trifluoropropylene; Solstice 1233zd(E) 

USEP A withdrew the rule on April 18, 2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 23149) in response to a 

significant adverse public comment. See 78 Fed. Reg. at 23149; 78 Fed. Reg. 11119 (Feb. 15, 

2013). On August 28,2013 (at 78 Fed. Reg. 53029), USEPA adopted the exemption after 

consideration of the comments submitted. 

USEPA exempted trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-ene, which is sold under the trade 

name Solstice 1233zd(E), based on a 2011 petition of Honeywell Inc. The compound can be 

used as an aerosol and non-aerosol solvent; as a blowing agent for insulating foam for 

refrigerators, freezers, and hot water heaters; and as a refrigerant in commercial chillers and 

waste heat recovery systems. USEP A determined that the hydroxyl radical reactivity rate (koH) 

for Solstice is higher than the koH of the benchmark compound, ethane. USEP A determined, 

however, that the maximum incremental reactivity (MIR) is equivalent to ethane on a molar 

basis and is about two orders of magnitude lower than the MIR of ethane on a mass basis. In its 

intended uses, the compound would replace ozone-depleting substances that have both higher 

and lower koH and MIR values. USEPA further observed that Solstice 1233zd(E) has a very low 

global warming potential (GWP). USEPA further determined that Solstice 1233zd(E) has 

similar human health effects as the products for which it will substitute. The most significant 

include severe eye irritation, skin initation, and frostbite. USEP A stated that precautions 

common among use of similar products would limit workplace exposures and address potential 

health reisks. See 78 Fed. Reg. 53029, 53030-31 (Aug. 28, 2013); 78 Fed. Reg. 11101, 11106 

(Feb. 15, 2013). 

Any person interested in the substance of the exemption of Solstice 1233zd(E) should 

refer to the February 15, 2015 and August 28, 2013 Federal Register discussions that 

accompanied the USEP A amendments. Alternatively, interested persons could contact USEP A 

as directed in the Federal Register notice. 

6 A direct final rule is an action taken without prior publication of a notice of proposed amendments in the Federal 

Register. Instead, USEPA delays the effective date of the direct final rule and expressly states in the Federal 

Register notice that (I) the rule will become effective on a future date, without further action by USEPA, unless 

USEPA expressly withdraws the rule by a Federal Register notice that is published before that date; and (2) USEPA 

will withdraw the rule if it receives significant adverse comment before a stated date that is about 45 days after the 

date of the Federal Register notice adopting the direct final rule. See, e.g .. 78 Fed. Reg. 11101 (Feb. 15, 2013) 

(particularly, the "Dates" segment). Simultaneous with the notice of direct final rule, USEPA published a notice of 

proposed rule in the Federal Register. See, e.g., 78 Fed. Reg. 11119 (Feb. 15, 2013). Upon receipt of significant 

adverse comment, USEP A will withdraw the direct final rule, leaving open the option of adoption by a future 

Federal Register notice of final rule. See, e.g .• 78 Fed. Reg. 23149 (Apr. 18, 2013). 
8 

The Present Board Action. The Board has incorporated the new exempt HCFC 

compound without substantive changes. Nevertheless, the Board found minor revisions to the 

federal text necessary. The primary revisions involve (I) the naming of the new HCFC 

compound in the list in Section 211.7150; and (2) arranging the compound in alphabetic order in 

the list. As to naming, the Board observes that US EPA omitted the hyphen that should follow 

the structural prefix "trans." The chemical name should have appeared as "trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-

trifluoroprop-1-ene." The Board made this cotTection. These revisions are itemized and 

summarily outlined in Table 2, which begins on page 9Error! Bookmark not defined .. No 

finther discussion relative to alphabetization will appear in this opinion and order. 

Deviations from the Literal Text of the Federal Amendments 

and Non-Federallv Derived Corrections and Clarifications 

The Board routinely examines federal amendments and the base text of rules open for 

amendments to find any areas that need correction or clarification. JCAR and the Office of the 

Secretary of State also routinely examine the text and suggest corrections and clarifications. 

Sometimes suggestions arise from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, USEP A, or 

members of the regulated community. The Board often makes revisions as a result. 

The revisions thus made are not directly detived from federal amendments. The Board is 

ever mindful of the limited discretion authorized in the context of an identical-in-substance 

proceeding. The Board is limited to "those changes that are necessary for compliance with the 

Illinois Administrative Code," "technical changes that in no way change the scope or meaning of 

any portion of the regulations," and "apparent typographical and grammatical errors." See 415 

ILCS 5/7.2(a) and (a)(?) (2012). Thus, the Board will only make minor, non-substantive 

corrections and clarifications in this context. These corrections are non-substantive in effect. 

Tables follow that document the conections and clarifications made in this proceeding. 

The first lists the deviation from the literal text of the USEP A amendments involved in this 

proceeding. The second lists the conection made in this docket that was not prompted by federal 

amendments. 

Tabulations of Deviations from the Literal Text of the Federal Amendments 

and IVIiscellaneous Board Housekeeping Amendments 

The tables below list numerous corrections and amendments that are not based on cunent 

federal amendments. Table I lists a number of federal amendments that the Board has not 

included in this docket. Table I gives a brief explanation why the Board has declined to make 

each. Table 2 includes deviations made in this proposal for public comment from the verbatim 

text of the federal amendments. Table 3 contains conections and clarifications that the Board 

made in the base text involved in this proposal. The amendments listed in Table 3 are not 

directly derived from the cunent federal amendments. Some of the entries in these tables are 

discussed further in appropriate segments of the general discussion beginning at page 4 of this 

opinion. Table 4 is a listing of revisions made to the text of the amendments from that proposed 

and set fmth in the Board's opinion and order of September 5, 2013. Table 4 indicates the 

changes made, as well as the source that suggested each of the changes. Table 5 indicates 
9 

suggested revisions that the Board has not made in adopting these amendments. Each entry 

gives a brief explanation why the Board did not incorporate the suggested change.

HISTORICAL SUMMARY OF THE FEDERAL RECOMMENDED 

POLICY ON THE CONTROL OF VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS 

AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION IN ILLINOIS 

The Board traditionally included historical summaries of the State and federal definitions 

ofVOM in each opinion and order. That summary traces the evolution of the federal 

Recommended Policy on the Control of Volatile Organic Compounds; USEPA's codification of 

the policy as a definition in 40 C.F.R. 51.1 OO(s); subsequent amendments of 40 C.F.R. 51.100(s); 

the several dockets that the Board has reserved to accommodate federal amendments, including 

indication of the several amendments to the definition ofVOM that the Board has made based on 

USEPA's actions. 

In a break fi·om past tradition, the Board no longer includes the lengthy summaries in 

opinions and orders relating to the definition ofVOM. The Board maintains an updated version 

of the historical summaries on the Board's website: www.ipcb.state.il.us. Persons wishing to 

review the historical summaries of the federal and State exemptions from the definitions ofVOM 

must consult the Board's website or Board staff to do so.

ORDER 

The Board directs the Clerk to promptly file the adopted amendments with the Office of 

the Secretary of State and provide notice in the Illinois Register of the following adopted

Section 211.7150 Volatile Organic Material (VOM) or Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) 

"Volatile organic material" (also "VOM") or "volatile organic compound" (also "VOC") means 

any compound of carbon, excluding carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbonic acid, metallic 

carbides or carbonates, and ammonium carbonate, that participates in atmospheric photochemical 

reactions. 

a) This definition ofVOM includes any organic compound that pmticipates in 

atmospheric photochemical reactions, other than the compounds listed in this 

subsection (a). USEPA has determined that the compounds listed in this 

subsection (a) have negligible photochemical reactivity. US EPA has excluded the 

listed negligibly-reactive compounds from the definition ofVOM for purposes of 

VOM limitations or VOM content requirements. However, USEPA has required 

that certain of these compounds be considered VOM for purposes of 

recordkeeping, emissions reporting, and inventory requirements, as described in 

subsection (e) of this Section.

reference at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 215.105,218.112, and 219.112, as applicable, or 

by source-specific test methods that have been established pursuant to a pennit 

issued under a program approved or promulgated under Title V of the Clean Air 

Act; under 40 CFR 51, £!%llj3a11 subpart I or AJ3J3eaEiiK appendix S, incorporated 

by reference at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.112 and 219.112; or under 40 CFR 52.21, 

incorporated by reference at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.112 and 219.112, as 

applicable. Where such a method also measures compounds with negligible 

photochemical reactivity, these negligibly-reactive compounds may be excluded 

as VOM if the amount of such compounds is accurately quantified and the 

exclusion is approved by the Agency. 

c) As a precondition to excluding these negligibly-reactive compounds as VOM, or 

at any time thereafter, the Agency may require an owner or operator to provide 

monitoring or testing methods and results demonstrating, to the satisfaction of the 

Agency, the amount of negligibly-reactive compounds in the source's emissions. 

d) The USEP A will not be bound by any State determination as to appropriate 

methods for testing or monitoring negligibly-reactive compounds if such 

detennination is not reflected in any of the test methods in subsection (b) above. 
30 

e) The following compound is YOM for the purposes of all recordkeeping, 

emissions reporting, photochemical dispersion modeling and inventory 

requirements that apply to YOM, and it must be uniquely identified in emission 

reports, but it is not YOM for the purposes of YOM emissions limitations or 

YOM content requirements: t-butyl acetate.

Section 211.7150 Volatile Organic Material (VOI\1) or Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) 

"Volatile organic material" (also "YOM") or "volatile organic compound" (also "VOC") means 

any compound of carbon, excluding carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbonic acid, metallic 

carbides or carbonates, and ammonium carbonate, that participates in atmospheric photochemical 

reactions. 

a) This definition ofVOM includes any organic compound that participates in 

atmospheric photochemical reactions, other than the compounds listed in this 

subsection (a). US EPA has determined that the compounds listed in this 

subsection (a) have negligible photochemical reactivity. USEPA has excluded the 

listed negligibly-reactive compounds from the definition ofVOM for purposes of 

VOM limitations or VOM content requirements. However, USEPA has required 

that certain of these compounds be considered VOM for purposes of 

recordkeeping, emissions reporting, and inventory requirements, as described in 

subsection (e) of this Section.

b) For purposes of detennining VOM emissions and compliance with emissions 

limits, VOM will be measured by the test methods in the approved 

implementation plan or 40 CFR 60, AppeneiJl appendix A, incorporated by 

reference at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 215.105, 218.112, and 219.112, as applicable, or 

by source-specific test methods that have been established pursuant to a pennit 

issued under a program approved or promulgated under Title V of the Clean Air 

Act; under 40 CFR 51, S<d>part subpart I or t'..ppeaaix appendix S, incorporated 

by reference at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.112 and 219.112; or under 40 CFR 52.21, 

incorporated by reference at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.112 and 219.112, as 

applicable. Where such a method also measures compounds with negligible 

photochemical reactivity, these negligibly-reactive compounds may be excluded 

as VOM if the amount of such compounds is accurately quantified and the 

exclusion is approved by the Agency. 

c) As a precondition to excluding these negligibly-reactive compounds as VOM, or 

at any time thereafter, the Agency may require an owner or operator to provide 

monitoring or testing methods and results demonstrating, to the satisfaction of the 

Agency, the amount of negligibly-reactive compounds in the source's emissions. 

d) The USEPA will not be bound by any State detennination as to appropriate 

methods for testing or monitoring negligibly-reactive compounds if such 

determination is not reflected in any of the test methods in subsection (b) above. 

e) The following compound is VOM for the purposes of all recordkeeping, 

emissions reporting, photochemical dispersion modeling and inventory 

requirements that apply to VOM, and it must be uniquely identified in emission 

reports, but it is not VOM for the purposes ofVOM emissions limitations or 

VOM content requirements: !-butyl acetate.
