OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J.D. O’Leary):

On March 18, 2013, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) filed a 

rulemaking proposal to amend the Board’s air pollution rules at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 201, 218, and 

219. The proposal includes the phase out of Stage II vapor recovery systems at gasoline 

dispensing operations in the Chicago ozone nonattainment area (NAA). The phase out is due to 

the widespread use of on-board refueling vapor recovery (ORVR) throughout the national motor 

vehicle fleet. IEPA filed the proposal under Sections 10, 27, and 28 of the Environmental 

Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/10, 27, 28 (2010)). The proposal includes a statement of 

reasons (SOR) and is accompanied by a motion for expedited review (Mot. Exp.) and a motion 

for waiver of copy requirements (Mot. Waive). 

For the reasons below, the Board accepts IEPA’s rulemaking proposal for hearing and 

grants IEPA’s motion for expedited review. Without commenting on the merits of the proposal, 

the Board adopts the proposed amendments for first-notice publication in the Illinois Register 

pursuant to the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act (IAPA) (5 ILCS 100/5-40 (2010)). The 

Board also reserves ruling upon IEPA’s motion for waiver of copy requirements and directs 

IEPA to provide, by May 6, 2013, further information in support of that motion. 

RULEMAKING PROPOSAL

 IEPA explains that with these proposed amendments, in addition to various “rule cleanups/clarifications,” IEPA seeks to accomplish two primary objectives. SOR at 13; see also SOR 

at 22-25. First, IEPA proposes to phase out the Chicago NAA Stage II program. SOR at 13. 

Specifically, in the Chicago ozone NAA, the amendments would phase out the requirement for 

gasoline dispensing operations to install, maintain, and operate Stage II vapor recovery systems. 

The amendments would also require the decommissioning of existing Stage II equipment in the 

Chicago ozone NAA. SOR at 1, 7-8. More specifically, owners and operators of existing 

gasoline dispensing operations (i.e., operating at any time before January 1, 2014) would be 

allowed to begin decommissioning Stage II systems on January 1, 2014, but would have to 

comply with Stage II requirements until decommissioning begins. SOR at 14. 

Decommissioning would have to be completed by December 31, 2016. SOR at 15. 

Additionally, the amendments would remove the requirement for Stage II systems at new 

gasoline dispensing operations that commence operating for the first time on or after January 1, 

2014. SOR at 14. 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 275
IEPA seeks these Stage II amendments based upon the United States Environmental 

Protection Agency (USEPA) determination, under Section 202(a)(6) of the federal Clean Air Act 

(42 U.S.C. § 7521(a)(6)), that there is widespread use of ORVR nationwide. SOR at 1, 7-8. 

This USEPA determination, effective May 16, 2012, resulted in a waiver of the Clean Air Act 

Section 182(b)(3) (42 U.S.C. § 7511a(b)(3)) Stage II requirement. SOR at 7, 13. The waiver 

means that states now have the option of removing Stage II programs from their ozone State 

Implementation Plans (SIPs), subject to USEPA approval. SOR at 7. 

 IEPA’s second primary objective in proposing these amendments is to clarify and 

streamline permitting rules for storage tanks and fuel dispensing. SOR at 17-18. Specifically, 

clarifications would be made to State air permitting exemptions for Stage II gasoline dispensing 

operations and Stage I storage tank filling operations at gasoline dispensing operations. In 

addition, the amendments would add Title V (i.e., Clean Air Act Permit Program (CAAPP)) 

“insignificant activities” related to small gasoline storage tanks and fuel dispensing. SOR at 8-

10, 13, 18-22. 

 The geographic regions subject to the Board’s Stage I regulations are the Chicago ozone 

NAA and the Metro-East ozone NAA. SOR at 25-26. The Stage II regulations apply to the 

Chicago ozone NAA. SOR at 26. The Board’s permitting rules apply to the entire State of 

Illinois. Id. 

 The Board finds that IEPA’s rulemaking proposal satisfies the content requirements of 

the Board’s procedural rules. See 35 Ill. Adm. Code 102.202. The Board therefore accepts the 

proposal for hearing. 

MOTION FOR EXPEDITED REVIEW

 IEPA asks for expedited review of this rulemaking proposal in an effort to have the 

Board adopt final rules before January 1, 2014. Mot. Exp. at 9. IEPA states that expedited 

review is needed to “begin realizing additional emission reduction benefits” achievable by using 

ORVR systems alone. Id. at 1, 34. IEPA further states that it conducted modeling using 

USEPA’s Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES) model to determine the emissions 

impacts associated with maintaining and removing the Chicago NAA Stage II program. Id. at 6. 

IEPA explains that according to its MOVES modeling, beginning in 2014, “the simultaneous use 

of ORVR and incompatible Stage II systems will actually begin to result in an emissions 

disbenefit,” i.e., “not achieving as many emission reductions as could be achieved through the 

use of only ORVR systems.” Id. at 14. IEPA maintains that this “disparity between the emission 

reductions” by leaving the current Stage II program in place versus removing it and relying 

solely upon ORVR “will grow over time.” Id. “During and after the phase out of the Stage II 

program,” according to IEPA, “emission reduction benefits attributable to ORVR systems will 

continue to increase and refueling emissions will continue to decrease.” Id. 

 IEPA also seeks expedited review of its rulemaking proposal because once Stage II 

equipment is decommissioned (estimated to cost $2,000-$7,000), existing affected gasoline 

dispensing operations would be able to avoid the costs of Stage II equipment maintenance and 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 276
operation. Mot. Exp. at 28. This is expected to result in recurring annual cost savings of 

approximately $3,000-$6,000 for each gasoline dispensing operation, according to IEPA. 

Further, IEPA maintains that not requiring new gasoline dispensing operations to install Stage II 

systems is expected to result in cost savings of $20,000-$60,000 for each operation. Id. 

IEPA asserts that the proposed amendments to the permitting rules do not add “any new 

technology, requirements, or obligations on affected sources,” but rather “will reduce the burden 

associated with permitting and may result in reduced costs to affected sources.” Mot. Exp. at 28-

29. 

Lastly, IEPA states that it has contacted and met with interested stakeholders regarding 

the proposed rulemaking, including the following: Illinois Petroleum Council; Illinois Petroleum 

Marketers Association; Illinois Corn Growers Association; American Lung Association; 

Respiratory Health Association; Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity; 

Office of the State Fire Marshal; Illinois Department of Agriculture; and USEPA. Mot. Exp. at 

29. IEPA represents that to date, it has received “positive feedback from interested parties,” and 

therefore does not believe that material prejudice would result from the motion being granted. 

Id. IEPA’s motion is supported by the affirmation of counsel. 

 The Board finds that the emission reduction benefits for the State and economic savings 

for affected gasoline dispensing operations, as described by IEPA, justify establishing a January 

1, 2014 starting date to phase out the Chicago NAA Stage II program. The amendments 

proposed for permitting rules are not anticipated by IEPA to impose any new obligations on 

affected sources. Plus, IEPA has conducted extensive outreach and received positive feedback 

on the proposed rulemaking from interested parties. In addition, no response opposing IEPA’s 

motion has been filed with the Board. For these reasons, the Board grants IEPA’s motion for 

expedited review and therefore, subject to available resources, will endeavor to adopt final rules 

by the end of this calendar year.

FIRST NOTICE AND PUBLIC COMMENT

 Consistent with the Board’s grant of IEPA’s motion for expedited review, the Board 

today adopts the proposed rule amendments for first notice under the IAPA (5 ILCS 100/5-40 

(2010)) without commenting on the proposal’s merits. First-notice publication in the Illinois 

Register of these proposed amendments starts a period of at least 45 days during which anyone 

may file a public comment with the Board. The docket number for this rulemaking, R13-18, 

should be indicated on the public comment. 

 Public comments must be filed with the Clerk of the Board. Public comments may be 

filed at the following address: 

Pollution Control Board 

John Therriault, Assistant Clerk 

JRTC 

100 W. Randolph Street, Suite 11-500 

Chicago, IL 60601 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 277
In addition, public comments may be filed electronically through the Clerk’s Office On-Line 

(COOL) on the Board’s Web site at www.ipcb.state.il.us. Any questions about electronic filing 

through COOL should be directed to the Clerk’s Office at (312) 814-3629.1 

MOTION FOR WAIVER OF COPY REQUIREMENTS

 IEPA observes that under the Board’s procedural rules (35 Ill. Adm. Code 102.200), the 

original and nine copies of each regulatory proposal must be filed with the Clerk of the Board. 

Mot. Waive at 1. IEPA explains that when drafting the regulatory proposal, IEPA directly relied 

upon several documents, one of which is proposed for incorporation by reference. Id. IEPA lists 

the “documents relied upon/incorporated by reference” as follows: 

a. Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.) 

b. 40 CFR 63, Subpart CCCCCC (2012) 

c. 77 Fed. Reg. 28772 (May 16, 2012) 

d. “Guidance on Removing Stage II Gasoline Vapor Control Programs from 

State Implementation Plans and Assessing Comparable Measures” (Aug. 

 7, 2012) (EPA-457/B12-00l) 

e. Incorporation by Reference:

 Petroleum Equipment Institute, “Recommended Practices for 

 Installation and Testing of Vapor-Recovery Systems at Vehicle- 

 Fueling Sites”, PEI/RP300-09, (2009). Id. at 1-2. 

 IEPA notes that the Clean Air Act, the Code of Federal Regulation document, and the 

Federal Register document are “readily accessible to or are within the possession of the Board.” 

Mot. Waive at 2. Based upon the ease of accessibility of the documents listed above as items (a), 

(b), and (c), IEPA asks that the Board allow IEPA to provide no copies of these documents. Id. 

at 2, 3. 

Next, IEPA states that Section 5-75(a) of the IAPA (5 ILCS 100/5-75(a) (2010)) allows a 

State agency to incorporate by reference the regulations, standards, and guidelines of an agency 

of the United States or a nationally recognized organization or association without publishing the 

incorporated material in full. Mot. Waive at 2. IEPA further states that Section 5-75(c) of the 

IAPA (5 ILCS 100/5-75(c) (2010)) requires the State agency to maintain a copy of the 

referenced material in at least one of its principal offices and make the material available to the 

public upon request. Id. IEPA explains that it incorporated by reference into this rulemaking 

proposal the Petroleum Equipment Institute (PEI) document listed above as item (e). Id. 

According to IEPA, the PEI document is: 

copyright protected and each copy must be purchased at a cost to the Illinois 

EPA. In order to keep costs incurred by the Illinois EPA at a minimum, Illinois 

1 All filings with the Clerk must be served on the hearing officer and on those persons on the 

Service List for this rulemaking. The most recent version of the R13-18 Service List is available 

on COOL. 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 278
EPA requests that the Board waive the normal copy requirements and allow the 

Illinois EPA to file only one original copy of this PEI document. Id. 

Finally, IEPA states that “[t]he remaining documents in the regulatory proposal consist of 

over 800 pages.” Mot. Waive at 3. This would include the USEPA guidance document listed as 

item (d) above. Based upon the proposal’s length and the resources required to provide nine 

copies, IEPA asks that the Board allow IEPA to instead file “the original and four complete 

copies of such documents.” Id. 

 

 The Board reserves ruling upon IEPA’s motion for waiver of copy requirements. One 

document at issue in the motion is the copyright-protected original issued by PEI and proposed 

by IEPA for incorporation by reference. IEPA states that it paid for the PEI document and seeks 

to file only the one original of the PEI document so as to keep IEPA’s costs at a minimum. 

IEPA acknowledges, however, that the IAPA requires the Board to make all incorporated-byreference documents available to the public. Section 5-75(c) of the IAPA states in relevant part:

The agency adopting a rule, regulation, standard, or guideline under this Section 

shall maintain a copy of the referenced rule, regulation, standard, or guideline in 

at least one of its principal offices and shall make it available to the public upon 

request for inspection and copying at no more than cost. 5 ILCS 100/5-75(c) 

(2010). 

 The Board directs IEPA to file further support for its waiver motion with respect to the 

PEI document. Specifically, IEPA must explain whether the Board can make the PEI document 

provided by IEPA available for public inspection and copying without running afoul of any 

copyright limitations. If it is IEPA’s position that the Board cannot do so, IEPA, as the 

proponent of this incorporation by reference, must propose alternatives for how the Board can 

fulfill the Board’s obligations under Section 5-75(c) of the IAPA (5 ILCS 100/5-75(c) (2010)). 

 IEPA’s document in further support of its motion must be filed by May 6, 2013, which is 

the first business day following the 30th day after the date of this order. The “mailbox rule” (35 

Ill. Adm. Code 101.300(b)(2)) does not apply to this filing. Accordingly, the Clerk of the Board 

must receive IEPA’s filing by 4:30 p.m. on May 6, 2013. 

CONCLUSION

The Board accepts IEPA’s rulemaking proposal for hearing and grants IEPA’s motion for 

expedited review. The Board adopts IEPA proposal for first-notice publication in the Illinois 

Register without commenting on the merits of the proposal. Further, the Board directs that the 

hearing officer assigned to this rulemaking proceed expeditiously to hearing under the Title VII 

rulemaking provisions of the Act (415 ILCS 5/27, 28 (2010)) and the Board’s procedural rules 

(35 Ill. Adm. Code 102). 

The Board reserves ruling upon IEPA’s motion for waiver of copy requirements and 

directs IEPA to provide additional information in support of that motion as discussed above. 

IEPA’s filing must be received by the Clerk of the Board by May 6, 2013.

Section 219.105 Test Methods and Procedures 

a) Coatings, Inks and Fountain Solutions 

The following test methods and procedures shall be used to determine compliance 

of as applied coatings, inks, and fountain solutions with the limitations set forth in 

this Part. 

1) Sampling: Samples collected for analyses shall be one-liter taken into a 

one-liter container at a location and time such that the sample will be 

representative of the coating as applied (i.e., the sample shall include any 

dilution solvent or other VOM added during the manufacturing process). 

The container must be tightly sealed immediately after the sample is taken. 

Any solvent or other VOM added after the sample is taken must be 

measured and accounted for in the calculations in subsection (a)(3) of this 

Section. For multiple package coatings, separate samples of each 

component shall be obtained. A mixed sample shall not be obtained as it 

will cure in the container. Sampling procedures shall follow the 

guidelines presented in: 

A) ASTM D 3925-81 (1985) standard practice for sampling liquid 

paints and related pigment coating. This practice is incorporated 

by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

B) ASTM E 300-86 standard practice for sampling industrial 

chemicals. This practice is incorporated by reference in Section 

219.112 of this Part. 

2) Analyses: The applicable analytical methods specified below shall be 

used to determine the composition of coatings, inks, or fountain solutions 

as applied. 

A) Method 24 of 40 CFR 60, appendix A, incorporated by reference 

in Section 219.112 of this Part, shall be used to determine the 

VOM content and density of coatings. If it is demonstrated to the 

satisfaction of the Agency and the USEPA that plant coating 

formulation data are equivalent to Method 24 results, formulation 

data may be used. In the event of any inconsistency between a 

Method 24 test and a facility's formulation data, the Method 24 test 

will govern. 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 330
B) Method 24A of 40 CFR 60, appendix Appendix A, incorporated by 

reference in Section 219.112, shall be used to determine the VOM 

content and density of rotogravure printing inks and related 

coatings. If it is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Agency 

and USEPA that the plant coating formulation data are equivalent 

to Method 24A results, formulation data may be used. In the event 

of any inconsistency between a Method 24A test and formulation 

data, the Method 24A test will govern. 

C) The following ASTM methods are the analytical procedures for 

determining VOM: 

i) ASTM D 1475-85: Standard test method for density of 

paint, varnish, lacquer and related products. This test 

method is incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of 

this Part. 

ii) ASTM D 2369-87: Standard test method for volatile 

content of a coating. This test method is incorporated by 

reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

iii) ASTM D 3792-86: Standard test method for water content 

of water-reducible paints by direct injection into a gas 

chromatograph. This test method is incorporated by 

reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

iv) ASTM D 4017-81 (1987): Standard test method for water 

content in paints and paint materials by the Karl Fischer 

method. This test method is incorporated by reference in

v) ASTM D 4457-85: Standard test method for determination 

of dichloromethane and 1,1,1, trichloroethane in paints and 

coatings by direct injection into a gas chromatograph. (The 

procedure delineated above can be used to develop 

protocols for any compounds specifically exempted from 

the definition of VOM.) This test method is incorporated by 

reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

vi) ASTM D 2697-86: Standard test method for volume nonvolatile matter in clear or pigmented coatings. This test 

method is incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of 

this Part. 

vii) ASTM D 3980-87: Standard practice for interlaboratory 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 331
testing of paint and related materials. This practice is 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

viii) ASTM E 180-85: Standard practice for determining the 

precision of ASTM methods for analysis of and testing of 

industrial chemicals. This practice is incorporated by 

reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

ix) ASTM D 2372-85: Standard method of separation of 

vehicle from solvent-reducible paints. This method is 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

D) Use of an adaptation to any of the analytical methods specified in 

subsections (a)(2)(A), (B), and (C) of this Section may not be used 

unless approved by the Agency and USEPA. An owner or 

operator must submit sufficient documentation for the Agency and 

USEPA to find that the analytical methods specified in subsections 

(a)(2)(A), (B), and (C) of this Section will yield inaccurate results 

and that the proposed adaptation is appropriate. 

3) Calculations: Calculations for determining the VOM content, water 

content and the content of any compounds which are specifically 

exempted from the definition of VOM of coatings, inks and fountain 

solutions as applied shall follow the guidance provided in the following 

documents: 

A) "A Guide for Surface Coating Calculation", EPA-340/1-86-016, 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

B) "Procedures for Certifying Quantity of Volatile Organic 

Compounds Emitted by Paint, Ink and Other Coatings" (revised 

June 1986), EPA-450/3-84-019, incorporated by reference in 

Section 219.112 of this Part. 

C) "A Guide for Graphic Arts Calculations", August 1988, EPA340/1-88-003, incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this 

Part. 

b) Automobile or Light-Duty Truck Test Protocol 

1) The protocol for testing, including determining the transfer efficiency of 

coating applicators, at primer surfacer operations and topcoat operations at 

an automobile or light-duty truck assembly source shall follow the 

procedures in the following: 

A) Prior to May 1, 2012: "Protocol for Determining the Daily 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 332
Volatile Organic Compound Emission Rate of Automobile and 

Light-Duty Truck Topcoat Operations" ("topcoat protocol"), 

December 1988, EPA-450/3-88-018, incorporated by reference in 

Section 219.112 of this Part. 

B) On and after May 1, 2012: "Protocol for Determining the Daily 

Volatile Organic Compound Emission Rate of Automobile and 

Light-Duty Truck Primer-Surfacer and Topcoat Operations" 

(topcoat protocol), September 2008, EPA-453/R-08-002, 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

2) Prior to testing pursuant to the applicable topcoat protocol, the owner or 

operator of a coating operation subject to the topcoat or primer surfacer 

limit in Section 219.204(a)(1)(B), (a)(1)(C), (a)(2)(B), (a)(2)(C), or 

(a)(2)(E) shall submit a detailed testing proposal specifying the method by 

which testing will be conducted and how compliance will be demonstrated 

consistent with the applicable topcoat protocol. The proposal shall 

include, at a minimum, a comprehensive plan (including a rationale) for 

determining the transfer efficiency at each booth through the use of inplant or pilot testing, the selection of coatings to be tested (for the purpose 

of determining transfer efficiency) including the rationale for coating 

groupings, the method for determining the analytic VOM content of as 

applied coatings and the formulation solvent content of as applied 

coatings, and a description of the records of coating VOM content as 

applied and coating's usage that will be kept to demonstrate compliance. 

Upon approval of the proposal by the Agency and USEPA, the compliance 

demonstration for a coating line may proceed. 

c) Capture System Efficiency Test Protocols 

1) Applicability 

The requirements of subsection (c)(2) of this Section shall apply to all 

VOM emitting process emission units employing capture equipment (e.g., 

hoods, ducts), except those cases noted in this subsection (c)(1). 

A) If an emission unit is equipped with (or uses) a permanent total 

enclosure (PTE) that meets Agency and USEPA specifications, 

and which directs all VOM to a control device, then the emission 

unit is exempted from the requirements described in subsection 

(c)(2) of this Section. The Agency and USEPA specifications to 

determine whether a structure is considered a PTE are given in 

Method 204 of appendix M of 40 CFR 51, incorporated by 

reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. In this instance, the 

capture efficiency is assumed to be 100 percent and the emission 

unit is still required to measure control efficiency using appropriate 

test methods as specified in subsection (d) of this Section. 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 333
B) If an emission unit is equipped with (or uses) a control device 

designed to collect and recover VOM (e.g., carbon adsorber), an 

explicit measurement of capture efficiency is not necessary 

provided that the conditions given below are met. The overall 

control of the system can be determined by directly comparing the 

input liquid VOM to the recovered liquid VOM. The general 

procedure for use in this situation is given in 40 CFR 60.433, 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part, with the 

following additional restrictions: 

i) The source owner or operator shall obtain data each 

operating day for the solvent usage and solvent recovery to 

permit the determination of the solvent recovery efficiency 

of the system each operating day using a 7-day rolling 

period. The recovery efficiency for each operating day is 

computed as the ratio of the total recovered solvent for that 

day and the most recent prior 6 operating days to the total 

solvent usage for the same 7-day period used for the 

recovered solvent, rather than a 30-day weighted average as 

given in 40 CFR 60.433 incorporated by reference in 

Section 219.112 of this Part. This ratio shall be expressed 

as a percentage. The ratio shall be computed within 72 

hours following each 7-day period. A source that believes 

that the 7-day rolling period is not appropriate may use an 

alternative multi-day rolling period not to exceed 30 days, 

with the approval of the Agency and USEPA. In addition, 

the criteria in subsection (c)(1)(B)(ii) or subsection 

(c)(1)(B)(iii) below must be met. 

ii) The solvent recovery system (i.e., capture and control 

system) must be dedicated to a single coating line, printing 

line, or other discrete activity that by itself is subject to an 

applicable VOM emission standard, or 

iii) If the solvent recovery system controls more than one 

coating line, printing line or other discrete activity that by 

itself is subject to an applicable VOM emission standard, 

the overall control (i.e., the total recovered VOM divided 

by the sum of liquid VOM input from all lines and other 

activities venting to the control system) must meet or 

exceed the most stringent standard applicable to any line or 

other discrete activity venting to the control system. 

2) Capture Efficiency Protocols 

The capture efficiency of an emission unit shall be measured using one of 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 334
the protocols given below. Appropriate test methods to be utilized in each 

of the capture efficiency protocols are described in appendix M of 40 CFR 

51, incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. Any error 

margin associated with a test method or protocol may not be incorporated 

into the results of a capture efficiency test. If these techniques are not 

suitable for a particular process, then an alternative capture efficiency 

protocol may be used, pursuant to the provisions of Section 219.108(b) of 

this Part. 

A) Gas/gas method using temporary total enclosure (TTE). The 

Agency and USEPA specifications to determine whether a 

temporary enclosure is considered a TTE are given in Method 204 

of appendix M of 40 CFR 51, incorporated by reference in Section 

219.112 of this Part. The capture efficiency equation to be used 

for this protocol is: 

ww

w

FG

G CE

+ =

where:

CE = capture efficiency, decimal fraction;

Gw = mass of VOM captured and delivered to control device 

using a TTE;

Fw = mass of uncaptured VOM that escapes from a TTE.

Method 204B or 204C contained in appendix M of 40 CFR 51, 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part is used to 

obtain Gw. Method 204D in appendix M of 40 CFR 51, 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part is used to 

obtain Fw. 

B) Liquid/gas method using TTE. The Agency and USEPA 

specifications to determine whether a temporary enclosure is 

considered a TTE are given in Method 204 of appendix M of 40 

CFR 51, incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

The capture efficiency equation to be used for this protocol is: 

L

FL CE − W =

where:

CE = capture efficiency, decimal fraction;

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 335
L = mass of liquid VOM input to process emission unit;

Fw = mass of uncaptured VOM that escapes from a TTE.

Method 204A or 204F contained in appendix M of 40 CFR 51, 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part is used to 

obtain L. Method 204in appendix M of 40 CFR 51, incorporated 

by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part is used to obtain Fw. 

C) Gas/gas method using the building or room (building or room 

enclosure), in which the affected coating line, printing line or other 

emission unit is located, as the enclosure, as determined by Method 

204 of appendix M of 40 CFR 51, incorporated by reference in 

Section 219.112 of this Part and in which "FB" and "G" are 

measured while operating only the affected line or emission unit. 

All fans and blowers in the building or room must be operated as 

they would under normal production. The capture efficiency 

equation to be used for this protocol is: 

FG B

G CE

+ =

where:

CE = capture efficiency, decimal fraction;

G = mass of VOM captured and delivered to control device;

FB = mass of uncaptured VOM that escapes from building 

enclosure.

Method 204B or 204C contained in appendix M of 40 CFR 51, 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part is used to 

obtain G. Method 204E in appendix M of 40 CFR 51, incorporated 

by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part is used to obtain FB. 

D) Liquid/gas method using the building or room (building or room 

enclosure), in which the affected coating line, printing line or other 

emission unit is located, as the enclosure as determined by Method 

204 of appendix M of 40 CFR 51, incorporated by reference in 

Section 219.112 of this Part and in which "FB" and "L" are 

measured while operating only the affected line emission unit. All 

fans and blowers in the building or room must be operated as they 

would under normal production. The capture efficiency equation 

to be used for this protocol is: 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 336
L

FL CE − B =

where:

CE = capture efficiency, decimal fraction;

L = mass of liquid VOM input to process emission unit;

FB = mass of uncaptured VOM that escapes from building 

enclosure.

Method 204A or 204F contained in appendix M of 40 CFR 51, 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part is used to 

obtain L. Method 204E in appendix M of 40 CFR 51, incorporated 

by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part is used to obtain FB. 

E) Mass balance using Data Quality Objective (DQO) or Lower 

Confidence Limit (LCL) protocol. For a liquid/gas input where an 

owner or operator is using the DQO/LCL protocol and not using an 

enclosure as described in Method 204 of appendix M of 40 CFR 

51, incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part, the 

VOM content of the liquid input (L) must be determined using 

Method 204A or 204F in appendix M of 40 CFR 51, incorporated 

by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. The VOM content of 

the captured gas stream (G) to the control device must be 

determined using Method 204B or 204C in appendix M of 40 CFR 

51, incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. The 

results of capture efficiency calculations (G/L) must satisfy the 

DQO or LCL statistical analysis methodology as described in 

Section 3 of USEPA's "Guidelines for Determining Capture 

Efficiency," incorporated by reference at Section 219.112 of this 

Part. Where capture efficiency testing is done to determine 

emission reductions for the purpose of establishing emission 

credits for offsets, shutdowns, and trading, the LCL protocol 

cannot be used for these applications. In enforcement cases, the 

LCL protocol cannot confirm non-compliance; capture efficiency 

must be determined using a protocol under subsection (c)(2)(A), 

(B), (C) or (D) of this Section, the DQO protocol of this subsection 

(c)(2)(E), or an alternative protocol pursuant to Section 219.108(b) 

of this Part.

BOARD NOTE: Where LCL was used in testing emission units 

that are the subject of later requests for establishing emission 

credits for offsets, shutdowns, and trading, prior LCL results may 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 337
not be relied upon to determine the appropriate amount of credits. 

Instead, to establish the appropriate amount of credits, additional 

testing may be required that would satisfy the protocol of Section 

219.105(c)(2)(A), (B), (C) or (D), the DQO protocol of Section 

219.105(c)(2)(E), or an alternative protocol pursuant to Section 

219.108(b) of this Part. 

3) Simultaneous testing of multiple lines or emission units with a common 

control device. If an owner or operator has multiple lines sharing a 

common control device, the capture efficiency of the lines may be tested 

simultaneously, subject to the following provisions: 

A) Multiple line testing must meet the criteria of Section 4 of 

USEPA's "Guidelines for Determining Capture Efficiency," 

incorporated by reference at Section 219.112 of this Part; 

B) The most stringent capture efficiency required for any individual 

line or unit must be met by the aggregate of lines or units; and 

C) Testing of all the lines of emission units must be performed with 

the same capture efficiency test protocol.

4) Recordkeeping and Reporting 

A) All owners or operators affected by this subsection must maintain a 

copy of the capture efficiency protocol submitted to the Agency 

and the USEPA on file. All results of the appropriate test methods 

and capture efficiency protocols must be reported to the Agency 

within 60 days after the test date. A copy of the results must be 

kept on file with the source for a period of 3 years. 

B) If any changes are made to capture or control equipment, then the 

source is required to notify the Agency and the USEPA of these 

changes and a new test may be required by the Agency or the 

USEPA. 

C) The source must notify the Agency 30 days prior to performing any 

capture efficiency or control test. At that time, the source must 

notify the Agency which capture efficiency protocol and control 

device test methods will be used. Notification of the actual date and

expected time of testing must be submitted a minimum of 5 

working days prior to the actual date of the test. The Agency may 

at its discretion accept notification with shorter advance notice 

provided that such arrangements do not interfere with the Agency's 

ability to review the protocol and/or observe testing. 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 338
D) Sources utilizing a PTE must demonstrate that this enclosure meets 

the requirement given in Method 204 in appendix M of 40 CFR 51, 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part, for a 

PTE during any testing of their control device. 

E) Sources utilizing a TTE must demonstrate that their TTE meets the 

requirements given in Method 204 in appendix M or 40 CFR 51, 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part, for a 

TTE during any testing of their control device. The source must 

also provide documentation that the quality assurance criteria for a 

TTE have been achieved. 

F) Any source utilizing the DQO or LCL protocol must submit the 

following information to the Agency with each test report: 

i) A copy of all test methods, Quality Assurance/Quality 

Control procedures, and calibration procedures to be used 

from those described in appendix M of 40 CFR 51, 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part; 

ii) A table with information on each sample taken, including 

the sample identification and the VOM content of the 

sample;

iii) The quantity of material used for each test run; 

iv) The quantity of captured VOM for each test run; 

v) The capture efficiency calculations and results for each test 

run; 

vi) The DQO and/or LCL calculations and results; and

revised by subsection (c)(1)(B) of this Section) for each solvent recovery 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 341
system. In those cases in which the overall efficiency is being determined 

for an entire line, the capture efficiency used to calculate the product of 

the capture and control efficiency is the total capture efficiency over the 

entire line. 

2) For coating lines which are both chosen by the owner or operator to 

comply with Section 219.207(a), (d), (e), (f), (g), (l), or (m) of this Part by 

the alternative in Section 219.207(b)(2) of this Part and meet the criteria 

allowing them to comply with Section 219.207 instead of Section 219.204 

of this Part, the overall efficiency of the capture system and control 

device, as determined by the test methods and procedures specified in 

subsections (c), (d) and (e)(1) of this Section, shall be no less than the 

equivalent overall efficiency which shall be calculated by the following 

equation: 

×100 − =

a

a l

VOM

VOM VOM E

where:

E = Equivalent overall efficiency of the capture system 

and control device as a percentage;

VOMa = Actual VOM content of a coating, or the dailyweighted average VOM content of two or more 

coatings (if more than one coating is used), as 

applied to the subject coating line as determined by 

the applicable test methods and procedures 

specified in subsection (a)(4)(i) of this Part in units 

of kg VOM/1 (lb VOM/gal) of coating solids as 

applied;

VOM1 = The VOM emission limit specified in Sections 

219.204 or 219.205 of this Part in units of kg 

VOM/1 (lb VOM/gal) of coating solids as applied.

the Board to receive testimony from IEPA and other interested participants on the merits and

economic impact ofthe rulemaking proposal. At hearing, all persons who testify will be swornand subject to questioning.

Dear Acting Director Pollet:

I am writing to request that your Department conduct an economic

impact study concerning the above rulemaking proposal. On March 18, 2013,

the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) filed the proposal to

amend the Board’s air pollution rules at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 201, 218, and 219.

The proposal includes the phase out of Stage II vapor recovery systems atgasoline dispensing operations in the Chicago ozone nonattainment area. The

phase out is due to the widespread use of on-board refueling vapor recovery

throughout the national motor vehicle fleet. IEPA filed the proposal under

Sections 10, 27, and 28 of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS

5/10, 27, 28 (2010)).

Section 27(b) of the Act requires, among other things, that the Board do

the following:

(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 45days of such request produce a study of the economic

impact of the proposed rules. At a minimum, theeconomic 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 smallbusinesses 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

(2) conduct at least one public hearing on the economic impact of those new rules.

At least 20 days before the hearing, the Board shall notify the public of the

hearing and make the economic impact study, or the Department of Commerce

and Economic Opportunity’s explanation for not producing an economic impactstudy, available to the public. Such public hearing may be held simultaneously or

as a part of any Board hearing considering such new rules. 415 ILCS 5/27(b)

(2010).

If I, or my staff, can provide you with any additional information, please let me know.

Thank you in advance for your prompt response.

RE: DCEO Response to Request for Economic Impact Study for: Vapor Recovery

Rules: Amendments to 35 Iii. Adm. Coe Parts 201, 218, 219 Board Docket R13-18

Dear Chairman Holbrook:

Thank you for your April 8,2013 letter requesting the Department of Commerce and

Economic Opportunity (“Department”) conduct an economic impact study concerning Vapor

Recovery Rules: Amendments to 35 Iii. Adm. Code Parts 201, 218, 219, Board Docket R13-18.

The Department has reviewed the Board’s request for an Economic Impact Study for IEPA’s

proposal. Based on this review, and in light of continued fiscal constraints, the Department has

decided not to conduct a study of the economic impact of the above referenced rulemaking

proposal.

Thank you for soliciting the Department’s input in this matter.

INTRODUCTION 

The Illinois Register is the official state document for publishing public notice of rulemaking activity 

initiated by State governmental agencies. The table of contents is arranged categorically by 

rulemaking activity and alphabetically by agency within each category. 

Rulemaking activity consists of proposed or adopted new rules; amendments to or repealers of 

existing rules; and rules promulgated by emergency or peremptory action. Executive Orders and 

Proclamations issued by the Governor; notices of public information required by State Statute; and 

activities (meeting agendas; Statements of Objection or Recommendation, etc.) of the Joint 

Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR), a legislative oversight committee which monitors the 

rulemaking activities of State Agencies; is also published in the Register. 

The Register is a weekly update of the Illinois Administrative Code (a compilation of the rules

POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD 

NOTICE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS 

1) Heading of the Part: Permits and General Provisions 

2) Code Citation: 35 Ill. Adm. Code 201 

3) Section Numbers: Proposed Action: 

201.146 Amend 

201.210 Amend 

201.302 Amend 

4) Statutory Authority: Implementing Sections 9, 10, 39, and 39.5 of the Environmental 

Protection Act [415 ILCS 5/9, 10, 39, 39.5] and authorized by Sections 27 and 28 of the 

Environmental Protection Act [415 ILCS 5/27, 28] 

5) A Complete Description of the Subjects and Issues Involved: In this rulemaking, the 

Illinois Pollution Control Board (Board) proposes to phase out the Stage II (gasoline 

dispensing to motor vehicles at gasoline dispensing operations) (35 Ill. Adm. Code 

218.586) program, including the Stage II registration provision (35 Ill. Adm. Code 

218.586(h)). In addition, the Board proposes to repeal the Stage I (storage tank filling at 

gasoline dispensing operations) (35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.583(e) and 219.583(e)) 

registration provisions due to overlapping federal notification requirements and State 

tracking systems for gasoline dispensing operations. The available permitting 

exemptions (currently conditioned upon registration) provided by these Stage I and II 

registration provisions are proposed to be relocated to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 201.146(l). The 

new, combined Stage I and II proposed permitting exemption at Section 201.146(l) does 

not require registration and expands the exemption to include non-retail State I operations 

not previously exempted. Additionally, the amendments propose clarifications to Section 

201.146(n) and (nn), and repeal Section 201.146(kk) as it is no longer necessary. Also, 

the amendments propose an insignificant activity for gasoline storage tanks with a 

capacity of less than 2000 gallons at Section 201.210(a)(10)(B). Additionally, the 

amendments propose an insignificant activity for fuel dispensing at Section 

201.210(a)(19). The amendments propose a clarification to Section 201.210(b)(4). 

Further, the amendments propose a clarification and clean-up to the requirement for 

annual emissions reports at Section 201.302. 

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

rulemaking:

[415 ILCS 5/27, 28] 

5) A Complete Description of the Subjects and Issues Involved: This proposal will phase 

out the Stage II vapor recovery program applicable in the Chicago nonattainment area. 

As proposed, beginning January 1, 2014, new gasoline dispensing operations (those 

operating for the first time on or after January 1, 2014) are not subject to the Stage II 

vapor recovery equipment requirement of the rules of the Illinois Pollution Control Board 

(Board). Also, beginning January 1, 2014, existing affected gasoline dispensing 

operations (those operating at any time prior to January 1, 2014) may begin 

decommissioning Stage II vapor recovery equipment, but must complete 

decommissioning of all Stage II vapor recovery equipment no later than December 31, 

2016. The proposal requires existing affected gasoline dispensing operations to comply 

with the Board’s Stage II requirement until decommissioning is allowed and commenced 

in accordance with the rule. The proposal requires decommissioning to be performed in 

accordance with the Petroleum Equipment Institute's "Recommended Practices for 

Installation and Testing of Vapor-Recovery Systems at Vehicle-Fueling Sites," 

PEI/RP300-09, which the Board proposes to incorporate by reference at 35 Ill. Adm. 

Code 218.112. Also, the proposal requires decommissioning to be performed by 

contractors licensed/registered by the Office of the State Fire Marshal and the Illinois 

Department of Agriculture. Further, contractors must possess the appropriate dispensermanufacturer certifications and training, if any. The proposal clarifies decommissioning 

testing requirements. Additionally, the proposal requires submission of decommissioning 

notifications, checklists, and certifications, and establishes recordkeeping requirements. 

The Board proposes to repeal the Stage I (storage tank filling at gasoline dispensing 

operations) (35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.583(e)) registration provision due to overlapping 

federal notification requirements and State tracking systems for gasoline dispensing

SUBPART A: GENERAL PROVISIONS 

Section 219.105 Test Methods and Procedures 

a) Coatings, Inks and Fountain Solutions 

The following test methods and procedures shall be used to determine compliance 

of as applied coatings, inks, and fountain solutions with the limitations set forth in 

this Part. 

1) Sampling: Samples collected for analyses shall be one-liter taken into a 

one-liter container at a location and time such that the sample will be 

representative of the coating as applied (i.e., the sample shall include any 

dilution solvent or other VOM added during the manufacturing process). 

The container must be tightly sealed immediately after the sample is taken. 

Any solvent or other VOM added after the sample is taken must be 

measured and accounted for in the calculations in subsection (a)(3) of this 

Section. For multiple package coatings, separate samples of each 

component shall be obtained. A mixed sample shall not be obtained as it 

will cure in the container. Sampling procedures shall follow the 

guidelines presented in: 

A) ASTM D 3925-81 (1985) standard practice for sampling liquid 

paints and related pigment coating. This practice is incorporated 

by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

B) ASTM E 300-86 standard practice for sampling industrial 

chemicals. This practice is incorporated by reference in Section 

219.112 of this Part. 

2) Analyses: The applicable analytical methods specified below shall be

POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD 

NOTICE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS 

used to determine the composition of coatings, inks, or fountain solutions 

as applied. 

A) Method 24 of 40 CFR 60, appendix A, incorporated by reference 

in Section 219.112 of this Part, shall be used to determine the 

VOM content and density of coatings. If it is demonstrated to the 

satisfaction of the Agency and the USEPA that plant coating 

formulation data are equivalent to Method 24 results, formulation 

data may be used. In the event of any inconsistency between a 

Method 24 test and a facility's formulation data, the Method 24 test 

will govern. 

B) Method 24A of 40 CFR 60, appendix Appendix A, incorporated by 

reference in Section 219.112, shall be used to determine the VOM 

content and density of rotogravure printing inks and related 

coatings. If it is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Agency 

and USEPA that the plant coating formulation data are equivalent 

to Method 24A results, formulation data may be used. In the event 

of any inconsistency between a Method 24A test and formulation 

data, the Method 24A test will govern. 

C) The following ASTM methods are the analytical procedures for 

determining VOM: 

i) ASTM D 1475-85: Standard test method for density of 

paint, varnish, lacquer and related products. This test 

method is incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of 

this Part. 

ii) ASTM D 2369-87: Standard test method for volatile 

content of a coating. This test method is incorporated by 

reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

iii) ASTM D 3792-86: Standard test method for water content 

of water-reducible paints by direct injection into a gas 

chromatograph. This test method is incorporated by 

reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

iv) ASTM D 4017-81 (1987): Standard test method for water

content in paints and paint materials by the Karl Fischer 

method. This test method is incorporated by reference in 

Section 219.112 of this Part. 

v) ASTM D 4457-85: Standard test method for determination 

of dichloromethane and 1,1,1, trichloroethane in paints and 

coatings by direct injection into a gas chromatograph. (The 

procedure delineated above can be used to develop 

protocols for any compounds specifically exempted from 

the definition of VOM.) This test method is incorporated by 

reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

vi) ASTM D 2697-86: Standard test method for volume nonvolatile matter in clear or pigmented coatings. This test 

method is incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of 

this Part. 

vii) ASTM D 3980-87: Standard practice for interlaboratory 

testing of paint and related materials. This practice is 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

viii) ASTM E 180-85: Standard practice for determining the 

precision of ASTM methods for analysis of and testing of 

industrial chemicals. This practice is incorporated by 

reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

ix) ASTM D 2372-85: Standard method of separation of 

vehicle from solvent-reducible paints. This method is 

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part. 

D) Use of an adaptation to any of the analytical methods specified in 

subsections (a)(2)(A), (B), and (C) of this Section may not be used 

unless approved by the Agency and USEPA. An owner or 

operator must submit sufficient documentation for the Agency and 

USEPA to find that the analytical methods specified in subsections 

(a)(2)(A), (B), and (C) of this Section will yield inaccurate results 

and that the proposed adaptation is appropriate.

incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part, with the 

following additional restrictions: 

i) The source owner or operator shall obtain data each 

operating day for the solvent usage and solvent recovery to 

permit the determination of the solvent recovery efficiency 

of the system each operating day using a 7-day rolling 

period. The recovery efficiency for each operating day is 

computed as the ratio of the total recovered solvent for that 

day and the most recent prior 6 operating days to the total 

solvent usage for the same 7-day period used for the 

recovered solvent, rather than a 30-day weighted average as 

given in 40 CFR 60.433 incorporated by reference in 

Section 219.112 of this Part. This ratio shall be expressed 

as a percentage. The ratio shall be computed within 72 

hours following each 7-day period. A source that believes 

that the 7-day rolling period is not appropriate may use an 

alternative multi-day rolling period not to exceed 30 days, 

with the approval of the Agency and USEPA. In addition, 

the criteria in subsection (c)(1)(B)(ii) or subsection 

(c)(1)(B)(iii) below must be met. 

ii) The solvent recovery system (i.e., capture and control 

system) must be dedicated to a single coating line, printing 

line, or other discrete activity that by itself is subject to an 

applicable VOM emission standard, or ifiii) If the solvent 

recovery system controls more than one coating line, 

printing line or other discrete activity that by itself is 

subject to an applicable VOM emission standard, the 

overall control (i.e., the total recovered VOM divided by 

the sum of liquid VOM input from all lines and other 

activities venting to the control system) must meet or 

exceed the most stringent standard applicable to any line or 

other discrete activity venting to the control system.
