HEARING OFFICER ORDER 

RECEIVED 

CLEAK'S OFFICE 

JUN 1 7 2013 

STATE OF ILLINOIS 

.-ouution Control Board 

This order reiterates the rulemaking's public comment deadline, designates two additional 

hearing exhibits, and poses questions for the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEP A) to 

address in public comment. 

Public Comment Deadline 

The second hearing in this rulemaking was held in Chicago on June 5, 2013. The hearing's 

transcript was filed on June 12, 2013, and is available through the Clerk's Office On-Line (COOL) 

on the Board's website at www.ipcb.state.il.us. At the conclusion of the second hearing, a 

deadline for filing public comments was established. Any person who wishes to file a public 

comment must file the comment with the Clerk of the Board no later than July 8, 2013. 

The "mailbox rule" (35 Ill. Adm. Code 1 01.300(b )(2)) does not apply to this filing. 

Therefore, the Clerk must receive the public comment by 4:30p.m. on Monday, July 8, 2013. 

Public comments may be filed through COOL. Any questions about electronic filing through 

COOL should be directed to the Clerk's Office at (312) 814-3629. Public comments filed with the 

Clerk must also be served on those persons on the R13-1 8 service list, which is available on 

COOL. 

Hearing Exhibits 

Attaclunent A to this order is a list of hearing exhibits for the rulemaking. Exhibit 6 was 

provided by !EPA at the second hearing and consists oflinks to two websites regarding gasoline 

dispenser training and certification. In the interest of a complete record, the screen shot for each of 

the two websites identified in Exhibit 6 has been printed out by the Board's Teclmical Unit. The 

two screen shots are designated as Exhibit 7 and attached to this order as Attaclunent B. 

In addition, the Technical Support Document (TSD) for IEPA's rulemaking proposal, filed 

March 18, 2013, includes a compact disc (CD) ofthe Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator 

(MOVES2010b) "input and output files (IEPA] used in its analysis." TSD at 7. The Board's 

Technical Unit has printed out the MOVES2010b run specifications from the CD for Cook County 

in the years 2007, 2014, and 2020. For ease of public access, that print out is designated as

Exhibit 8 and attached to this order as Attachment C. 

Questions 

IEP A is directed to respond in its public comment to the questions below. 

1. The Chicago nonattainment area (NAA) consists of the Counties of "Cook, DuPage, Kane, 

Lake, McHenry, Will, Grundy (townships of Aux Sable and Goose Lake only), and 

Kendall (Oswego township only)." IEPA Statement of Reasons (SOR) at 12 (filed March 

18, 2013). When the run specifications on the TSD's CD are opened in MOVES2010b, 

each one displays the selection "ILLINOIS- Cook County" under "Geographic Bounds." 

See Attachment C of this order. 

2. 

A. Does Figure 1 of the TSD ("ORVR Alone vs. Stage II+ ORVR,} reflect the results 

ofMOVES2010b runs for the entire Chicago NAA, Cook County only, or some 

other subdivision of the Chicago NAA?1 See TSD at 10; SOR at 13-14. 

B. If Figure 1 of the TSD reflects the results ofMOVES2010b runs for only a 

subdivision of the Chicago NAA (e.g., Cook and DuPage Counties), please 

elaborate upon the following: 

1. IEPA,s reasoning for not running the model for the entire Chicago NAA; 

ii. IEPA 's reasoning for considering the model runs conducted to be adequate 

support for the Stage II cut-off date of January 1, 2014 (Section 218.586(d)} 

and the decommissioning timeframe of2014 through 2016 (Section 

218.586(i)(1 )); and 

iii. Whether the emissions reduction benefits in tons per day presented in 

Figure 1 beginning in 2014 would be comparatively greater if the model 

were run for the entire Chicago NAA. 

When the run specifications on the TSD's CD are opened-in Mo\TEs2of()b:· each one·--·----····-···---·--·-

displays the selections "July', and "Weekdays,, under "Time Spans." See Attachment C of 

this order. Please elaborate upon the following: 

A. !EPA's reasoning for modeling July instead of another month or the entire year; and 

1 "ORVR" is short for "on-board refueling vapor recovery." 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 694

B. IEPA's reasoning for modeling weekdays instead of also selecting weekends. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

PUBLIC COMMENTS OF THE ILLINOIS EPA

NOW COMES the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA), by and

through its attorney, and hereby submits its Public Comments as directed by the Hearing Officer

Order entered on June 17, 2013, in the above-captioned rulemaking.

Procedural Background

On March 18, 2013, the Illinois EPA filed a regulatory proposal to amend the vapor

recovery rules under 35 Illinois Administrative Code Parts 201, 218, and 219. On April 4, 2013,

the Illinois Pollution Control Board (Board) accepted the Illinois EPA’s proposal for hearing and

adopted the proposed amendments for first notice. The first hearing in this matter was held on

May 8, 2013. The second hearing in this matter was held on June 5, 2013. At the close of the

hearings in this matter, the Hearing Officer set a public comment deadline of July 8, 2013. In his

Order entered June 17, 2013, the Hearing Officer directed the Illinois EPA to respond to certain

questions, as set forth below, through public comment.

Questions and Responses

1. The Chicago nonattainment area (NAA) consists of the Counties of “Cook, DuPage,

Kane, Lake, McHenry, Will, Grundy (townships of Aux Sable and Goose Lake only),

and Kendall (Oswego township only).” IEPA Statement of Reasons (SOR) at 12 (filed

March 18, 2013). When the run specifications on the TSD’s CD are opened in

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 726
some other subdivision of the Chicago NAA? See TSD at 10; SOR at 13-14.

RESPONSE: Figure 1 illustrates MOVES results for the entire Chicago NAA.

The MOVES model requires a single county code for identification purposes andthe Illinois EPA selected the Cook County code to represent the entire Chicago

NAA. Modeling input data for vehicle miles traveled, vehicle registration data,

etc. representing the entire Chicago NAA were imported into the model.

B. If Figure 1 of the TSD reflects the results of MOVES2O1Ob runs for only a

subdivision of the Chicago NAA (e.g., Cook and DuPage Counties), please

elaborate upon the following:i. IEPA’s reasoning for not running the model for the entire Chicago NAA;

ii. IEPA’s reasoning for considering the model runs conducted to be adequate

support for the Stage II cut-off date ofJanuary 1, 2014 (Section

218.586(d)) and the decommissioning timeframe of 2014 through 2016

(Section 218.586(i)(1)); and

iii. Whether the emissions reduction benefits in tons per day presented in

Figure 1 beginning in 2014 would be comparatively greater ifthe modelwere run for the entire Chicago NAA.

2 Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 727
displays the selections “July” and “Weekdays” under “Time Spans.” See Attachment C

ofthis order. Please elaborate upon the following:

A. IEPA’s reasoning for modeling July instead of another month or the entire year;

and

RESPONSE: July was selected for two reasons. First, this would be the worstcase scenario for refueling emissions since the United States Environmental

Protection Agency considers July to be the peak ofthe ozone season. Second, the

previous on-road model (MOBILE 6.2) only had the capacity to model twomonths, January or July. July was selected for the purposes of consistency.

B. IEPA’s reasoning for modeling weekdays instead of also selecting weekends.

RESPONSE: Weekday was selected since MOVES assigns more vehicle miles

traveled to each weekday than to weekend days thereby making weekdays theworst-case scenario.

Re: Comments on Vapor Recovery Rules Rl3-18 (Rulemaking - Air) 

Dear Clerk: 

I am the Executive Vice President of lhe lllinois Petrolewn Marketers Association and the 

Illinois Association of Convenience Stores (collectively "IPMA"). joint trade associations with 

300 members who own or supply 3500 gasoline stations and convenience stores in Ulinois. On 

behalf of those members, I submit the following comments. 

The IPMA recommends that the Illinois Pollution Control Board and the Illinois EPA please 

reconsider the time frame of the proposed changes to the decommissioning of stage II vapor 

recovery. Although the proposed changes are an important step forward, we feel it would be of 

benefit to the State oflllinois and its citizens if this time frame in the rule could become effective 

immediately and not have to wait until January 1, 2014. We feel this change would have both a 

positive economic effect as well as a positive environmental impact for the State of Illinois. 

There are approximately 5 months left before the proposed reguiation change goes into effect. 

Over the next 5 months marketers will hold off, or limit the investment in building new sites and 

upgrading existing sites_ There are several marketers with stations in Illinois that market in 

multiple states. Many of them are electing to invest money in developing new stations in other 

states. By doing this they can enjoy a savings of about 50k per site. This is the typical average 

cost when stage II vapor recovery systems do not need to be installed_ Each station built outside 

of Illinois is a loss of about 2.5 to 3 million dollars spent in !!linois_ That is the average cost of 

construction per site in the impacted counties. This is a loss ofjobs and revenue to the state and 

its citizens. The companies that build these stores and provide the equipment and supplies will be 

greatly impacted by the reduction in activity during this window of time. Many station owners 

and marketers would also like to change out their existing dispensers to non-stage II dispensers. 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 733
They too have to hold off until January 1, 2014. This is additional loss of economic and 

employment opportunity to the State and its citizens. Some marketers may try to band aid old 

equipment just to keep it working until they can upgrade to the less expensive non stage II 

equipment. Running older equipment without proper maintenance will not contribute to the 

optimal goal of vapor recovery and prevention of minor product releases. 

It is understandable that the Pollution Control Board and JEP A must take into consideration the 

guidelines set forth by the Federal EPA on stage II decommissioning. We recognize the data 

used from the MOVES simulator (Motor Vehicle Emission simulator) helps identify the 

threshold of where the on board canisters and vapor assist systems create a problem with tank 

over pressurization and air quality back slide. We feel that the building or upgrading of 1 0 or 20 

additional stores should not create that big of a loss in air quality to be a problem. That would be 

a change in less than 1 percent of the 2420 stations in the impacted area. In fact we feel there are 

positive offsets to building a new store. These stores are built with more environmental friendly, 

and energy efficient equipment. LED lighting is just one that is recognizable to the consumer. 

These newer sites are also built with fueling systems that can be compatible to offer bio fuels. In 

fact it is at the new stores that bio diesels and E85 are sold. These cleaner fuels would help offset 

the immediate possible air quality loss. It would also bring long term insurance to better air 

quality through those products. Currently due to this waiting period we are losing these new sites 

with those cleaner fuels desired under the Renewable Fuels Standard 2 and the Energy 

Independence Act. Illinois is currently losing some of this opportunity. 

We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the proposed amendments. We do feel it would it 

better serve the interest and needs of the citizens of Illinois to allow decommissioning prior to 

January 1, 2014. 

Sincerely yours,

HEARING OFFICER ORDER

On the final day for public comments in this rulemaking, July 8, 2013, the Illinois

Petroleum Marketers Association and the Illinois Association of Convenience Stores (collectively,IPMA) filed a public comment (PC2). IPMA proposes that the requirement for new gasoline

stations in the Chicago non-attainment area to install Stage II vapor recovery equipment beeliminated immediately upon the effective date of these rule amendments, rather than eliminating

the requirement only for new stations that commence operating on or after January 1, 2014, asproposed by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (TEPA). PC2 at 1. IPMA likewise

proposes that existing gasoline stations in the Chicago non-attainment area be allowed to

decommission Stage II vapor recovery equipment immediately upon the effective date ofthe rules,instead of having to wait until January 1, 2014, as proposed by IEPA. Id. at 1-2.

IEPA is directed to file a public comment responsive to IPMA’s public comment. IEPA

must file its comment with the Clerk of the Board no later than July 31, 2013. To that extent only,

the public comment period is re-opened. IEPA’s comment may be filed through the Clerk’s Office

On-Line (COOL) on the Board’s website at www.ipcb.state.il.us. The “mailbox rule” (35 Ill.

Adm. Code 101 .300(b)(2)) does not apply to IEPA’s filing. Therefore, the Clerk must receive

IEPA’s public comment by 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, July 31, 2013. The public comment must

also be served on those persons on the R13-l8 service list, which is available on COOL.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

PUBLIC COMMENTS OF THE ILLINOIS EPA 

NOW COMES the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA), by and 

through its attorney, and hereby submits its Public Comments as directed by the Hearing Officer 

Order entered on July 16, 2013, in the above-captioned rulemaking. 

Procedural Background 

On March 18, 2013, the Illinois EPA tiled its regulatory proposal to amend the vapor 

recovery rules with the Illinois Pollution Control Board (Board). On April 4, 2013, the Board 

accepted the Illinois EPA's proposal for hearing and adopted the proposed amendments tor first 

notice. The tirst hearing in this matter was held on May 8, 2013, in Springfield, Illinois. The 

second hearing in this matter was held on June 5, 2013, in Chicago, Illinois. At the close of the 

hearings in this matter, the Hearing Officer set a public comment deadline of July 8, 2013. 

On July 8, 2013, the Illinois Petroleum Marketers Association (IPMA) tiled a public 

comment requesting the Board and Illinois EPA to reconsider the January 1, 2014 effective date 

and allow the rule amendments to become effective immediately. PC2 at p. l. On July 16, 2013, 

the Hearing Officer entered an Order directing the Illinois EPA to tile a public comment in 

response to IPMA' s public comment. The Hearing Officer directed the Illinois EPA to file its 

public comment by July 31, 2013. 

Illinois EPA Response to IPMA Public Comment 

Illinois Ozone SIP Revision - Vehicle Refuleing Vapor Recovery Program: Attachments Page - 748
The Illinois EPA reached out to IPMA to discuss the concerns that tormed the basis for 

its public comment and to resolve those concerns in a spirit of cooperation. The Illinois EPA 

acknowledges that, for industry, this is a time of regulatory compliance uncertainty. Further, the 

Illinois EPA understands the economic conundrum tor industry during this time. After informed 

discussion between the Illinois EPA and IPMA, the lllinois EPA understands that IPMA's 

concerns have been addressed. The Illinois EPA has committed to IPMA that it will continue 

working with IPMA should any compliance issues arise in a way that will be understanding of 

this situation and will seek to expeditiously and amicably resolve any such issues. As a result, 

the Illinois EPA understands that an immediate effective date is no longer a request of or desired 

by IPMA and that IPMA is in agreement with this statement. See Exhibit l. 

WHEREFORE, the Illinois EPA respectfully submits these comments, requests the Board 

to maintain the January 1, 2014 effective date, and requests the Board to proceed expeditiously 

to second notice.
