Pollution Control Board 

MOTION FOR WAIVER OF COPY REQUIREMENTS 

NOW COMES the Proponent, the lllinois Environmental Protection Agency ("Illinois 

EPA"), by its attorney, and pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.500, 102.110, I 02.200, and 

102.402, respectfully moves that the Illinois Pollution Control Board ("Board") waive the 

requirement that the Illinois EPA submit the original and nine copies of the regulatory proposal 

including all documents relied upon, and waive the requirement that the Illinois EPA provide 

copies of certain documents relied upon. In support of its Motion, the Illinois EPA states as 

follows: 

I. Section 102.200 of the Board's procedural rules requires that the original and nine 

copies of each regulatory proposal be filed with the Clerk. 35 Ill. Adm. Code I 02.200. Section 

27( a) of the Envirorunental Protection Act also requires that the Illinois EPA provide information 

supporting a regulatory proposal. 415 ILCS 5/27(a). 

2. The Illinois EPA directly relied upon several documents when drafting the regulatory 

proposal, and incorporated by reference certain documents as welL The documents relied 

upon/incorporated by reference are as follows: 

a. TRW Petroleum Technologies & Cheryl L. Dickson, Mol or Gasolines, 

Summer 1999, Table 12, (Feb. 2000).

3. Several of the documents described above- the Clean Air Act, several portions of the 

Code of Federal Regulations and federal register documents, are readily accessible to or are 

within the possession of the Board. Given the ease of accessibility of these documents, listed as 

2 

B 
items (1), (m), (n), (o), and (p) above, the Illinois EPA moves !hat the Board waive the 

requirement that the Illinois EPA provide copies of such documents. 

4. Section 5-75(a) of the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act ("IAPA") provides that 

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

of the United States or a nationally recognized organization or association wjthout publishing the 

incorporated material in full. 5 ILCS 100/5-75(a). Section 5-75(c) of the IAPA provides, 

however, that such agency shall maintain a copy of the referenced material in at least one of its 

principal offices and shall make it available to the public upon request. 5 ILCS 100/5-?S(c). 

5. In developing this proposed rulemaking, the Illinois EPA incorporated by reference 

one document published by the American Society for Testing and Materials ("ASTM") listed 

above as item ( q). This ASTM document is copyright protected and must be down! oaded at a 

cost to the Illinois EPA. The Illinois EPA is also subject to additional fees for each copy 

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

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

file only the original of this ASTM document. Attached with the ASTM is a copy of the License 

Agreement utilized by the owner of the copyright. The Illinois EPA directs the Board's attention 

to such document so that the Board may conform its handling of the standard consistent with this 

agreement. 

6. The remaining documents in the regulatory proposal consist of over 800 pages. Given 

the length of the proposal and the resources required to provide nine copies, Illinois EPA 

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

original and four complete copies of such documents.

STATEMENT OF REASONS 

RECEH"eD 

CLERK'S OFFICE 

APR ij 2 2012 

STATE OF II..UNOIS 

Pollution Control Board 

The lllinois Environmental Protection Agency ("Illinois EPA" or "Agency") hereby 

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

Sections 10, 27, and 28 of the Environmental Protection Act ("Act") [415 ILCS 5/10,27, and 28 

(2010)] and 35 Ill. Adm. Code Sections 102.200 and 102.202, in support of the attached 

proposed amendments. 

There are 1:\vo distinct portions of tllis mlemaking. First, included in this proposal is the 

repeal of t11e State of Illinois ("State") Gasoline Volatility Standards at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 

Sections 215.585 (ozone attainment area), 218.585 (Chicago ozone nonattaimnent area) and 

219.585 (Metro-East ozone nonattainment area), and related clean-up amendments to 35 III. 

Adm. Code Parts 211,215, 218 and 219. Second, included in this proposal is an amendment to 

35 Ill. Adm. Code Sections 218.784 and 219.784 (Subpart HH: Motor Vehicle Refinishing) to 

allow for the alternative use of a high volume, low pressure ("HVLP") equivalent coating 

applicator (or spray gun) in motor vehicle refinishing operations, and also a repeal of the 

registration program at 35 Ill. Adm. Code Sections 218.792 and 219.792 (Subpart HH: Motor 

Vehicle Refinishing). 

This proposal amends the most recent versions of Parts 211,215,218 and 219, as found 

on the Board's website. This amendment proposes a repeal of the State Gasoline Volatility 

13 
Standards in the ozone attainment areas of Illinois (35 fll. Adm. Code 215.585) because these 

standards were in effect for 1991 only and have been replaced by the federal Gasoline Volatility 

Standards. Also, this amendment proposes a repeal of the State Gasoline Volatility Standards for 

the Chicago ozone nonattaimnent area ("NAA'') (35 IlL Adm. Code 218.585) and the Dlinois 

portion of the St. Louis, Illinois-Missouri ("Metro-East") ozone NAA (35 Ill. Adm. Code 

219.585) because these standards have essentially been superseded by Illinois' participation in 

the federal refmmulated gasoline ("RFG") program. Further, this amendment proposes a cleanup to definitions and incmporations by reference consistent with a repeal of the State Gasoline 

Volatility Standards. Also, this amendment proposes to allow for the alternative use of a HVLP 

equivalent spray gun used in motor vehicle refinishing operations that is demonstrated by the 

spray gun manufacturer to achieve transfer efficiency comparable to HVLP technology and for 

which written approval has been obtained from the United States Environmental Protection 

Agency ("USEPA"). Finally, this amendment proposes to repeal the registration program 

applicable to motor vehicle refinishing operations due to overlapping federal registration 

requirements. 

The Illinois EPA believes that repealing the State Gasoline Volatility Standards should be 

accomplished as quickly as possible in order to avoid another ozone season with conflicting 

regulatory requirements. In addition, the Illinois EPA believes that allowing for an HVLP 

equivalent spray gun answers a need in the motor vehicle refinishing industry. The Illinois EPA 

fully expects this rulemaking proposal to be noncontroversial. 

I. STATUTORY AUTHORITYFORRULEMAKING 

Section lO(A) of the Act provides the Board's general authority for rulemaking 

addressing air pollution. Section IO(A) states in pertinent part: "The Board, pursuant to 

2 

14 
procedures prescribed in Title VII of this Act, may adopt regulations to promote the pnrposes of 

this Title." 415 ILCS 5/lO(A) (2010). Further, Section 27(a) of the Act confers general 

substantive mlemaking authority upon the Board and the contents of this regulatory proposal are 

clearly within these general rulemaking powers of the Board. This proposal is being filed as a 

regulatory proposal of general applicability pursuant to Sections 27 and 28 of the Act. 415 ILCS 

5127 and 28 (2010). It is not being proposed as an identical-in-substance, fast-track or federally 

required nllemaking. In evaluating this proposal, the Board is required to take into account "the 

existing physical conditions, the character of the area involved, including the character of 

surrounding land uses, zoning classifications, the nature of the existing air quality, or receiving 

body of water, as the case may be, and the technical feasibility and economic reasonableness of 

measnring or reducing the particular type of pollution." 415 ILCS 5/27(a) (2010). 

II. STATEMENT OF FACTS 

A. Federal and State Gasoline Volatilitv Standards and RFG Program 

1. Federal Gasoline Volatility Standards 

In 1987, the USEPA determined that gasoline had become increasingly volatile resulting 

in an increase in evaporative emissions from vehicles. 52 Fed. Reg. 31274 (Aug. 19, 1987). 

Evaporative emissions from gasoline known as volatile organic compounds ("VOC") react with 

other pollutants including oxides of nitrogen ("NOx") and carbon monoxide ("CO") which are 

ozone precursors. 52 Fed. Reg. at 31275. Ozone is not emitted directly by most sources. 

Rather, ozone precursors react in the presence of direct sunlight and high ambient temperatures 

to form ozone, thereby contributing to the nation's ground-level ozone problem. ld. Ozone 

formation is thus most active during the summer months because of the direct sunlight and high 

ambient temperatures. Id. As a powerful oxidant, ozone reacts readily with a wide range of 

3 

15 
substances. Id. Exposure to ground-level ozone can cause harmful human health effects. In 

humans, ozone acts as an irritant to the respiratory system and may damage lung function, 

thereby aggravating asthma or other respiratory conditions, and other tissues. Jd. This damage 

can lead to impaired breathing and reduced immunity to disease for people in good health. ld. 

This damage may be more severe for people with pre-existing respiratory diseases. Jd. Fmther, 

ozone oxidation can also damage plant tissue, reduce the yield of some crops, and damage 

certain other materials such as rubber. ld. 

lJSEP A first proposed to control evaporative emissions and regolate gasoline volatility in 

1987 to reduce violations of the ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards ("NAAQS"). Jd. 

In 1989, pursuant to Section 2ll(c) of the federal Clean Air Act C:'CAA"), USEPA promulgated 

these federal Gasoline Volatility Standards which set maximum limits for the Reid Vapor 

Pressure ("RVP") of gasoline sold each year during the regulatory control period, May 1 to 

September 15. 54 Fed. Reg. 11868 (March 22, 1989). RVP is one common measure of fuel 

volatility. The higher the RVP, the faster a fuel evaporates. These regolations were referred to 

as Phase I of a two-phase nationwide reduction in summertime commercial gasoline volatility. 

Jd. Phase I took effect in 1989 and Phase II took effect in 1992. Phase I, like Phase II, 

prohibited regulated pa1ties from selling, offering for sale, dispensing, supplying, offering for 

supply, or transporting gasoline with a volatility in excess of the applicable RVP standard. Id at 

11872. The Phase I RVP standard was 10.5, 9.5, or 9.0 pounds per square inch ("psi") 

depending on the area of the country and the month. Id. at 11869. Under the Phase I rule, 

Illinois was required to comply with either the 10.5 psi RVP limit or the 9.5 psi RVP limit 

depending on the month and area of the State. I d. at 11883-11885. The Phase I rule applied the 

RVP standard at all points in the distribution network. Jd. at 11870. Thus, retail outlets and 

4 

16 
wholesale purchaser-consumers were prohibited from selling gasoline in violation of the RVP 

standard during the regulatory control period (summer ozone control season), June 1 to 

September 15, and all others such as refiners, importers, and distributors were prohibited from 

selling gasoline in violation of the RVP standard during their regulatory control period, May 1 to 

September 15. !d. at 11869. The Phase I mle also set forth an interim 1.0 psi RVP allowance for 

gasoline containing between 9 and 10 percent ethanol, and also contained gasoline sampling and 

testing requirements. !d. at 11868, 11875-11880. 

In 1990, USEP A promulgated more stringent controls under Phase II of the gasoline 

volatility control program. 55 Fed. Reg. 23658 (June 11, 1990). The Phase II regulations limit 

the volatility of summertime gasoline to 9.0 psi RVP or 7.8 psi R VP depending on the state and 

month. !d. Under these regulations, all Illinois counties are required to comply with the 9.0 psi· 

RVP limit during the regulatory control period. 40 C.P.R. § 80.27 (2010). In addition to the 

increase in stringency of gasoline RVP, the Phase II regulations made permanent the temporary 

1.0 psi RVP allowance for gasoline containing 9 to 1 0 percent ethanol. 55 Fed. Reg. at 23 658. 

The 1990 CAA Amendments established a new subsection, Section 211 (h), to address 

fuel volatility. Section 211(h)(l) requires USEPA to promulgate regulations making it unlawful 

to sell, offer for sale, dispense, supply, offer for snpply, transport, or introduce into commerce 

gasoline with an RVP level in excess of 9.0 psi during the summer ozone control season. 42 

U.S.C. § 7545(h)(l) (201 0). It also requires USEPA to set more stringent standards in NAAs if 

necessary. ld. 

2. State Gasoline Volatility Standards 

a. Statewide (Later Ozone Attainment Area) Gasoline Volatility 

Standards 

Currently, the State Gasoline Volatility Standards relating to the ozone attainment areas 

5 

17 
are set forth at 35 Ill. Adm. Code Section 215.585. Prior to the promulgation of Parts 218 and 

219, these standards applied statewide. In December of 1988, recognizing the need to reduce 

emissions of VOCs to achieve the ozone standard and to protect public health, the Board 

proceeded on its own mlemaking initiative (R88-30, In the Matter of Limits to Volatility of 

Gasoline) to reduce VOC emissions by reducing the vapor pressure of gasoline used throughout 

all of Illinois from its then present 11.5 psi RVP to 9.5 psi RVP beginning with the summer of 

1990, and then 9.0 psi RVP for the summer of 1991 only. This decision by the Board was also 

prompted by the slow pace of development of the federal rule and the uncertainty regarding the 

date for final adoption of these federal Gasoline Volatility Standards. It was not until March of 

1989 that USEP A proceeded to final adoption of its rule, and at that time it was only the interim 

measure of Phase I of a two-phase reduction in summe1time commercial gasoline volatility. As 

discussed, Phase I of the federal mle set a standard of 10.5 psi RVP for northern Illinois and 9.5 

psi RVP for southern Illinois, with the 40° North latitude serving as the dividing line. Phase II, 

which had yet to be adopted, set a standard of 9.0 psi RVP for the entire State, but 

implementation nationwide was not expected unti11992. At the time of the Board's rulemaking 

initiative, it was estimated that reducing gasoline RVP to 9.0 psi could result in summertime 

weekday VOC emission reductions of 41,000 tons per year, which was projected to reduce ozone 

levels by I 0-15 percent. 

The Board proceeded with its rulemaking splitting the original docket (R88-30, In the 

Matter qf" Limits to Volatility of Gasoline) into two separate dockets (R88-30(A) and R88-

30(B)). In Docket R88-30(A), the Board proposed a new section to the Illinois Administrative 

Code limiting the volatility of gasoline sold throughout the State to 9.5 psi RVP beginning in the 

stunmer of 1990. The summer period was known as the regulatory control period, which 

6 

18 
covered July 1 through August 31 of each year. In Docket R88-30(B), the Board proposed a 9.0 

psi RVP limitation for the swnmer of 1991 only, and extended the regulatory control period to 

June 1 to September 15. The Board made this proposal to parallel the federal rule as much as 

possible. The Board's R88-30(A) rulemaking was finalized and adopted February 15, 1990. 

The federal Gasoline Volatility Standards were finalized during the pendency of R88-

30(A); however, they did not mandate a gasoline volatility standard of 9.0 psi RVP in Illinois 

until 1992. Therefore, the State was in a position whereby gasoline volatility in the swnmer of 

1991 would have been left umegulated with the exception of the Phase I standard of 10.5 psi 

RVP and 9.5 psi RVP, as appropriate. Consequently, the Board proceeded with finalizing its 

R88-30(B) rulemaking to reduce ozone levels in Illinois during the swnmer of 1991 only, and 

then after 1991 would have those federal Gasoline Volatility Standards which would apply to 

Illinois in 19 92 and each year thereafter. 

In addition to the 9.0 psi RVP limit and regulatory control period, the State rule included 

a 1.0 psi waiver for ethanol-blended gasolines that had an ethanol content between 9 and 10 

percent by volume. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 215.585(c) (2010). In addition, the rule required that 

refmers and suppliers state that each shipment of gasoline or gasoline-ethanol blends leaving the 

refinery or distribution operation comply with the RVP limit and required refiners and suppliers 

to maintain records. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 215.585(h) (2010). Further, the rule required each retail 

outlet and facility operated by a wholesale purchaser-consumer to maintain records regarding 

each delivery of gasoline. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 215.585(i) (2010). Gasoline sampling and testing 

requirements were included in the rule to assure compliance. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 215.585{d)-(g) 

(2010).

b. Chicago Ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility Standards 

The State Gasoline Volatility Standards relating to the Chicago ozone NAA are set forth 

at 35 Ill. Adm. Code Section 218.585. In January 1991, the Agency filed a proposed rulemaking 

(R9!-7, In the Matter of" RACT Deficiencies in the Chicago Area: Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. 

Code Part 215 and the Addition of Part 218) seeking to correct deficiencies identified by 

USEPA in Illinois' SIP for the Chicago ozone NAA. The Chicago ozone NAA is currently 

comprised of the following Illinois counties: Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, Will,· 

Grundy (townships of Aux Sable and Goose Lake only), and Kendall (Oswego township only). 

This proposal contained regulations requiring the implementation of reasonably available control 

technology ("RACT") for certain sources of VOCs. Among other things, the proposal contained 

a new section to the Illinois Administrative Code limiting the volatility of gasoline sold in the 

Chicago ozone NAA to 9.5 psi R VP during the regulatory control period in 1990 and each year 

thereafter. As adopted in the original rule, the regulatory control period was defined as July 1 to 

August 31. Subsequently, the Agency filed a rulemaking (R93-9, In the Matter of Omnibus 

Cleanup of the Volatile Organic Material RACT Rules Applicable to Ozone Nonattainmenf 

Areas: Amendments to 35lll. Adm. Code Parts 203, 2ll, 2I8 and 219) for purposes of a cleanup of the VOC RACT rules. Among other amendments, this rulemaking amended Section 

218.585 by fmther limiting the volatility of gasoline sold in the Chicago ozone NAA to 9.0 psi 

RVP and lengthened the regulatory control period to May 1 to September 15. These rulemakings 

were finalized and adopted by the Board on July 25, 1991 and September 9, 1993, respectively, 

and subsequently approved by USEPA for inclusion into the Illinois SIP. 59 Fed. Reg. 46562 

(Sept. 9, 1994). Inclusion of the rule into the Illinois SIP makes it federally enforceable, thereby 

requiring federal approval of any action, such as a temporary waiver, affecting the rule. 

8 

20 
Currently, this rule requires the same volatility limit of9.0 psi RVP during the regulatory 

control period (May I to September 15). 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.585(a)-(b) (2010). Also, the 

rule grants a 1 psi waiver for ethanol-blended gasolines that have an ethanol content between 9 

and 10 percent by volume. 35 111. Adm. Code 218.585(c) (2010). In addition, the rule requires 

that refiners and suppliers state that each shipment of gasoline or gasoline-ethanol blends leaving 

the refinery or distribution operation complies with the RVP limit and requires refiners and 

suppliers to maintain appropriate records demonstrating such compliance. 35 IlL Adm. Code 

218.585(h) (2010). Gasoline sampling and testing requirements are included in the rule to assure 

compliance. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 219.585(d)-(g) (2010). 

c. Metro-East Ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility Standards 

The State Gasoline Volatility Standards relating to the Metro-East ozone NAA are set 

forth at 35 IlL Adm. Code Section 219.585. In January 1991, the Agency filed a proposed 

rulemaking (R91-8, In the Matter of RACT D~ficiencies in the Metro-East Area: Amendments to 

35 IlL Adm. Code Part 215 and the Adoption of Part 219) seeking to correct deficiencies 

identified by USEPA in fllinois' SIP for ozone in the Metro-East ozone NAA. At that time, the 

Metro-East ozone NAA was comprised of the following Illinois counties: Madison, Monroe, 

and St Clair. In addition to these counties, Jersey County was later included in the NAA 

botmdaries established for the 8-hour ozone standard. This proposal contained regulations 

requiring the implementation of RACT for certain sources of VOCs. Among other things, the 

proposal contained a new section to the Illinois Administrative Code limiting the volatility of 

gasoline sold in the Metro-East ozone NAA counties of Madison, Monroe, and St Clair to 9.5 

psi R VP during the regulatory control period in 1990 and each year thereafter. As adopted in the 

original rule, the regulatory control period was defined as July 1 to August 31. Subsequently, the 

9 

21 
Agency filed a rulemaking (R93-9, In the Matter of Omnibus Cleanup of !he Volatile Organic 

Material RACT Rules Applicable to Ozone Nonaflainment Areas.· Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. 

Code Parts 203, 211, 218 and 219) for purposes of a clean-up of the VOC RACT mles. Among 

other amendments, this rulemaking amended Section 219.585 by further limiting the volatility of 

gasoline sold in the aforementioned Metro-East ozone NA..I\ counties to 9.0 psi RVP and 

lengthened the regulatory control period to May 1 to September 15. These rulemakings were 

finalized and adopted by the Board on July 25, 1991 and September 9, 1993, respectively, and 

subsequently approved by USEPA for inclusion into the Illinois SIP. 59 Fed. Reg. at 46562. 

Inclusion of the rule into the lllinois SIP makes it federally enforceable, thereby requiring federal 

approval of any action, such as a temporary waiver, affecting the rule. 

Section 182(b )( 1) of the CAA requires ail moderate and above ozone NAAs to achieve a 

15% reduction of 1990 emissions of VOC by 1996. 42 U.S.C. § 75lla(b)(l) (2010). The 

Metro-East ozone NAA was subject to this requirement. On November 15, 1993, the Illinois 

EPA submitted its plan for achieving this IS% reduction in VOC emissions in the Metro-East 

ozone NAA ("15% Rate-of-Progress ("ROP") Plan") outlining the VOC emission control 

measures that Illinois would implement and identifYing one of the measures to be an R VP limit 

of 7.8 psi. The 7.8 psi RVP limit was originally chosen to coincide with the gasoline volatility 

requirement for the adjacent St. Louis, Missouri NAA. However, in December 1993, the 

Missouri Department of Natural Resources proposed lowering the St. Louis, Missouri NAA RVP 

limit to 7.2 psi. In order tc maintain consistency within the area, Illinois proposed a similar 7.2 

psi RVP limit. On September 15, 1994, the Board adopted this rule (R94-12, In the Matter of 

15% ROP Plan Control Measures for VOM Emissions- Part 1: Pressure/Vacuum Relief Valves 

and 7.2 RVP (Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 201, 211, 218, and 219)) lowering the RVP of 

10 

22 
gasoline in the area to 7.2 psi. The Illinois EPA formally submitted the amendments to USEPA 

on October 25, 1994, as a revision to the Illinois SIP and the revisions were subsequently 

approved. 60 Fed. Reg. 15233 (March 23, 1995). The Illinois EPA estimated that limiting the 

RVP of gasoline to 7.2 psi would reduce emissions in the Metro-East ozone NAA by 

approximately 8.5 tons per day, or 26% of the total reduction needed in the area to meet the 15% 

ROP requirement. Id. 

In September 1995, the Illinois EPA proposed an amendment to the Metro-East ozone 

NAA Gasoline Volatility Standards that would change the compliance date for aJI sources that 

had an annual compliance date of May 1 each year for 7.2 psi RVP gasoline to June 1 of each 

year citing inconsistency with the federal compliance dates. Federal regulations (Gasoline 

Volatility Standards) lower the RVP of gasoline in two steps. Step I requires the entire country 

to have 9.0 psi RVP at supply facilities (i.e., gasoline terminals and bulk plants) beginning May 1 

of each year. 40 C.F.R. § 80.27 (2010). Step II requires southern ozone NAAs, such as St. 

Louis, Missouri, to have 7.8 psi RVP at both supply and retail levels beginning June 1 each year. 

Id. TI1e Metro-East ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility Standards required 7.2 psi RVP gasoline at 

supply facilities in May when the rest of the country was only required to have a gasoline RVP 

of 9.0 psi under tile federal regulations. Further, the compliance date for supply facilities was 

inconsistent v,'i.th the date specified by federal regulations for southern NAAs storing the lowest 

required RVP gasoline. This presented numerous hardships for those suppliers affected by the 

Metro-East ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility Standards. The Board agreed with Illinois EPA's 

arguments and adopted the =endment (R96-2, In the Matter of: 15% ROP Plan: Clean-Up Part 

I- Amendments to 35 fll. Adm. Code 219.585(a) and 219.Appendix E) indicating it was 

appropriate in view of the need for consistency between the Board's nlle and USEPA 

11 

23 
regulations. This issue was also the subject of an emergency rule earlier in1995 (R95-10, In the 

Matter of Emergency Rule Amending 7.2 psi Reid Vapor Pressure Requirement in the MetroEast Area, 35 Ill. Adm. Code 219.585(a)). In 1997, USEPA approved Illinois' SIP revision 

relating to this change in the regulatory control period. 62 Fed. Reg. 43100 (Aug. 12, 1997). 

Currently, the Metro-East ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility Standards limit the volatility of 

gasoline sold in Madison, Monroe, St. Clair, and Jersey Counties to 7.2 psi RVP during the 

regulatory control period beginning in 1995 and each year thereafter. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 

219.585(b) (2010). The regulatory control period included in the rule is June 1 to September 15. 

35 IlL Adm. Code 219.585(a) (2010). Also, the rule grants a 1.0 psi waiver for ethanol-blended 

gasolines that have an ethanol content between 9 and 10 percent by volume. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 

219.585(c) (2010). In addition, the rule requires that refiners, distributors, and owner/operators 

maintain records and reports indicating that the volatility of each· gasoline shipment is in 

compliance with the 7.2 psi RVP limit. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 219.585(h) (2010). Gasoline 

sampling and testing requirements are included in the rule to assure compliance. 35 Ill. Adm. 

Code 219.585(d)-(g) (2010). 

3. RFG Program 

On February 16, 1994, USEPA published a final rule establishing various content and 

emission re<juction standards for reformulated gasoline pursuant to Section 2ll(k) of the CAA 

(42 U.S.C. § 7545(k)). 59 Fed. Reg. 7716 (Feb. 16, 1994). The purpose of the RFG program is 

to improve air quality in certain ozone N AAs of the country by requiring reductions in emissions 

of ozone-forming VOCs and emissions of toxic air pollutants through the reformulation of 

conventional gasoline. !d. Section 211 (k) of the CAA requires that RFG be sold in the nine 

ozone NAAs having a 1980 population in excess of250,000 and having the highest ozone design 

12 

24 
value during the period 1987 through 1989, which includes the Chicago ozone NAA, as well as 

areas that are reclassified to "Severe," and in other ozone NAAs, such as the Metro-East ozone 

NAA, where a state chooses to participate or "opt in" to the program. 42 U.S.C. § 7545(k)(l), 

(k)(6), (k)(10)(D) (2010). Further, Section 2ll(k) of the CAA also includes other compositional 

specifications for RFG, such as a minimwn oxygen content of 2.0 percent by weight1

, a 1.0 

volume percent benzene maximum and a prohibition on heavy metal content. 59 Fed. Reg. at 

7720. Currently, ethanol blending is permitted, but must be at least 9% but no more than 10% 

(by volume) of the gasoline. 40 C.F.R. § 80.40(c)(l) (2010). 

The RFG program is divided into two phases. Phase I ran from 1995 through 1999 and 

the more stringent Phase II began in 2000. 59 Fed. Reg. at 7716-7717. Section 2ll(k)(3) of the 

CAA requires RFG to meet the more stringent of either a formula standard or VOC and toxic air 

pollutant performance standards. During the rulemaking process, USEPA determined that these 

performance standards were more stringent. Id. at 7723-7724. The performance standards 

require specific minimum reductions in emissions of VOCs (during the high ozone season or 

swnmertime) and taxies (year-round). ld. During Phase I, the rule required VOC emission and 

toxic air emission reductions from RFG measured on a mass basis at least equal to 15% of 

baseline emissions. Jd. at 7717. For Phase II, the rule requires VOC and taxies performance 

standards each of which must be at least equal to a 25% reduction from baseline emissions. Id. 

at 7717. USEPA may adjust the performance standard upward or downward, but 1he reduction 

can be to no less than a 20% reduction from baseline emissions. !d. 

Phase II RFG regulations require a 29% (averaging) reduction in VOC emissions from 

RFG in VOC control region 1 (southern areas), and a 27.4% (averaging) reduction in VOC 

emissions from RFG in VOC control region 2 (northern areas). 40 C.F.R. § 80.41 (2010). 

1 The RFG oxygen content requirement was removed from the rule in 2006. 71 Fed. Reg. 26691 (May 8, 2006). 

13 

25 
Missouri is located in control region 1 and Illinois is located in control region 2. 40 C.F.R. § 

80.71. As a result, the St. Louis, Illinois-Missouri ozone NAA, which includes portions of 

Missouri and Illinois, is located partially in control region 2 and partially in control region I. 

Therefore, the Illinois portion of the St. Louis, Illinois-Missouri ozone NAA (referred to herein 

as the Metro-East ozone NAA) is subject to the more stringent emission requirements for VOC 

control region I. 40 C.F.R. § 80.7l(c) (2010). 

The RFG regulations set forth a method of certification tlu·ough a "simple" and then 

"complex" model based on fuel characteristics such as oxygen, benzene, aromatics, RVP, sulfur, 

olefins and the percent of fuel evaporated at 200 and 300 degrees Fahrenheit (E200 and E300, 

respectively). 59 Fed. Reg. at 7717. One method of reducing VOC emissions from RFG is to 

further decrease the gasoline RVP level during summer months because summer RFG has a 

significantly lower RVP than winter RFG. 66 Fed. Reg. 60163, 60164 (Dec. 3, 2001). Gasoline 

RVP is permitted to be relatively high during cold months because colder temperatures reduce 

the tendency of gasoline to evaporate and reduce emissions of volatile material. 66 Fed. Reg. at 

61064. During summer or warmer months, refiners must reduce gasoline RVP by removing the 

most volatile portion of the gasoline in order to reduce evaporative emissions from the gasoline. 

!d. Each spring, refiners and importers must reduce RVP of gasoline to comply with the 

summertime RFG requirements. !d. Under the RFG rule, the summer period runs from May I 

through September 15 and the winter period runs from September 16 through April30. 40 

C.F,R. § 80.42 (2010). 

The RFG regulations provide that gasoline retailers and wholesale purchaser-consumers 

must be selling only summer grade RFG by June l of each year. 40 C.F.R. § 80.78 (2010). In 

order to meet this requirement, the regulations specifY that RFG at terminals and all other 

14 

26 
facilities upstream of the retailer must meet the summertime RFG requirements by May I. Jd. 

This is identical to the federal RVP rule. In the RFG rule, USEPA set a VOC performance 

standard derived based on a fuel RVP of 6.7 psi to allow refiners some flexibility to meet the 

performance-based VOC standard. 59 Fed. Reg. at 7754. The RFG rule does not require 

refiners to meet a fuel RVP of 6.7 psi, however. Rather, a fuel RVP of 6.7 psi was chosen as a 

target level, not a maximum or minimum limit, which, along with target levels for other fuel 

• properties, such as oxygen, sulfur, aromatics, olefins, benzene, etc., could achieve the VOC 

performance standard required by the RFG rule (i.e. 29% or 27.4%). The RFG rule does set a 

permissible range of fuel RVP of 6.4-10.0 psi, as well as ranges for other fuel properties, for 

purposes of calculating the VOC performance standard. 40 C.F.R. § 80.45(f)(J)(i) (2010). 

Theoretically then, refiners may utilize a fuel RVP of more or less than 6.7 psi, but must have a 

corresponding reduction or increase in another fuel property in order to meet the VOC 

performance standard. In such a case, the result is an equivalent percentage reduction in VOC 

emissions as would be achieved if a fuel RVP of 6.7 psi was utilized. Even though the RFG 

requirements do not specifically establish an RVP limit, historical data indicates the RVP of 

RFG sold during the summertime (high ozone season) in the Chicago ozone NAA is 

considerably less than the RVP limits established in the federal and State Gasoline Volatility 

Standards, and has a range of averages from 6.7 to 7.2 psi for the Metro-East ozone NAA. 

Attachment A. The RFG rule also includes provisions for the certification of RFG and 

enforcement of RFG standards, reporting and recordkeeping, and establishes certain 

requirements regarding unreforrnulated or conventional gasoline. 40 C.F.R. pt. 80, subpt. D 

(20 10). 

B. Motor Vehicle Refinishing 

IS 

27 
As discussed supra, Section 182(b)(I) of the CAA required all moderate or worse ozone 

NAAs to achieve a 15% reduction of 1990 emissions of VOCs, or volatile organic material 

("VOM''), by 1996. 42 U.S.C. § 7511a(b)(l) (2010). The terms VOC and VOM are used 

interchangeably. In 1993, the Chicago and Metro-East areas were classified as Severe and 

Moderate nonattainment, respectively, and as such were subject to the 15% reduction 

requirement. Therefore, at that time, the Agency reviewed available control measures that could 

provide reductions by 1996 and selected a group of measures for Chicago and a group for the 

Metro-East that would reduce VOM emissions to meet the 15% requirement. The Agency 

developed and submitted a plan to USEP A incorporating the reduction measures for each NAA 

as its 15% ROP Plan. VOM emissions from motor vehicle refinishing operations were included 

in the 15% ROP Plan for both areas. The Agency filed numerous rulemaking proposals with the 

Board to adopt the reduction measures of the 15% ROP Plan. Regulations pertaining to the 

motor vehicle refinishing portion of the Plan were proposed and adopted in R94-32, In the 

Matter of 15% ROP Plan Control Measures for VOM Emissions - Part VI: Motor Vehicle 

Refinishing: Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code Parts 211, 218, and 219. These regulations are 

found at Subpart HH of 35 Ill. Adm. Code Parts 218 and 219. At the time of adoption, the motor 

vehicle refmishing regulations required all motor vehicle refinishing operations to comply with 

specified YOM content limitations for coatings and surface preparation materials, required the 

use of specified coating applicators (or spray guns) and coating applicator cleaning equipment, 

specific work practices, testing, recordkeeping and reporting, registration with the Agency, and 

provided for a control equipment alternative. In 2004, the Agency proposed, and the Board 

adopted, relatively minor amendments to this Subpart HH (R04-20, In the Matter of Clean-up 

Part III Amendments to 35 Jll. Adm. Code Parts 211, 218 and 219). 

16 

28 
Specifically, and as it pertains to this proposal, the Board's motor vehicle refinishing 

regulations require the use of either an electrostatic spray gun or a HVLP spray gun. 35 Ill. 

Adm. Code 218.784(a) and 219.784(a) (2010). In addition, these regulations require affected 

sources to register with the Agency. 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.792, 219.792 (2010). Registration 

inc! udes providing source contact information, descriptions of coating operations, and certain 

certifications. !d. Irrespective of the registration program, motor vehicle refinishing operations 

are required to meet the substantive provisions of Subpart HH, which include, among other 

things, YOM content limitations, coating preparation and applicator requirements, and work 

practices. 

In 2008, USEP A promulgated national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants 

("NESHAP") for area sources engaged in paint stripping, surface coating of motor vehicles and 

mobile equipment, and miscellaneous surface coating operations. 73 Fed. Reg. 1738 (Jan 9, 

2008). As it relates to surface coating of motor vehicles and mobile equipment, this NESHAP 

requires that all subject surface coating operations apply coatings with a HVLP spray gun, 

electrostatic spray gun, airless spray gun, air-assisted airless spray gun, or an equivalent 

technology demonstrated to be equal in transfer efficiency to one of these spray guns. 40 C.F.R. 

§ 63 .11173( e )(3) (20 I 0). In addition, this NESHAP requires these operations to submit an initial 

registration notification, an annual notification of changes, and also contains recordkeeping 

requirements. 40 C.F.R. §§ 63.11175,63.11176,63.11177 (2010). Proper registration includes 

providing source contact information, description of coating operations, and certain 

certifications. 40 C.F.R. § 63.11175. These registration notifications are submitted to the 

Agency because it has been delegated authority to implement and enforce this NESHAP. This 

NESHAP targets sources that the Board's motor vehicle refinishing rules target. Irrespective of 

17 

29 
the NESHAP's registration requirements, subject sources must comply with the substantive 

portions of this NESHAP, which include, among other things, extensive training, coating 

preparation and application requirements, coating applicator requirements, management 

practices, maintenance of equipment requirements, and recordkeeping. 73 Fed. Reg. at 1738-

1768. 

C. Applicable Air Qualitv Standards 

The 1997 8-hour ozone standard had an effective date of June 15, 2004. 40 C.F.R. pt. 81 

(201 0). The change from the previous 1-hour standard to the 8-hour standard was based on 

extensive air pollution research that indicated ozone is more harmful when a person is exposed to 

it over a longer period of time even if the ozone concentration is lower. As such, the 8-hour 

standard is more stringent than the previous !-hour standard. In Illinois, there are two areas 

designated as nonattainment (moderate) under the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS: 1) the Chicago 

ozone NAA, which includes Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, Will, Grundy (townships of 

Aux Sable and Goose Lake only), and Kendall (Oswego to·wnship only); and 2) the Metro-East 

ozone NAA, which includes Madison, Monroe, St. Clair, and Jersey Counties. 40 C.F.R. § 

81.314 (2010). 

As it relates to the State Gasoline Volatility Standards portion of tllis rulemaking, the 8-

hour ozone nonattainment classification required the Illinois EPA to develop a plan to further 

reduce ozone precursor enlissions in the Chicago and Metro-East ozone NAAs. One element of 

the strategy for the Metro-East ozone NAA was to opt into the RFG program under the 

provisions of Section 21l(k)(6) of the CAA. In a letter dated July 10, 2006, to USEPA 

Administrator Stephen L. Johnson, former Governor Rod R. Blagojevich formally requested the 

USEP A to extend the requirement for the sale of RFG into the Metro-East ozone NAA On 

18 

30 
April 24, 2007, the USEPA issued a final rule requiring the sale of RFG in the requested area 

beginning on July I, 2007. 72 Fed. Reg. 20237 (April 24, 2007). This requirement essentially 

superseded the Metro-East Gasoline Volatility Standards. 

III. PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF THE PROPOSAL 

The State Gasoline Volatility Standards portion of this rulemak:ing has three purposes. 

First, to eliminate the potential for requesting fuel supply waivers for the Chicago and MetroEast ozone NAAs and issuing provisional variances, and to avoid inconsistency between federal 

and State rules. Second, to remove the obsolete State attainment area Gasoline Volatility 

Standards. Third, to effectuate rule clean-ups and update technical references. The motor 

vehicle refinishing portion of this rulemak:ing has two purposes -to allow for the use of a HVLP 

equivalent spray gun in motor vehicle refinishing operations and to repeal the corresponding 

registration program. 

A. Repeal of State Gasoline Volatilitv Standards 

1. Repeal of the State Ozone Attainment Area Gasoline Volatility 

Standards 

The ozone attainment areas of the State are required to comply with the federal Gasoline 

Volatility Standards contained in 40 C.P.R.§ 80.27. These standards set an RVP limit of9.0 psi 

during the regulatory control period. 40 C.P.R. at 80.27(a)(2)(i). As discussed supra, the State 

Gasoline Volatility Standards for the ozone attainment areas were promulgated by the Board as 

an interim measure to control gasoline volatility until USEP A fmalized its regulations and set an 

RVP limit of 9.0 psi. Therefore, the Board promulgated its standards for 1991 only. Once 

USEPA finalized its Gasoline Volatility Standards and Phase II became effective, the Board's 

standards were no longer necessary. As a result, there is no longer any utility in maintaining the 

State Gasoline Volatility Standards for the ozone attainment areas and these standards should be 

19 

31 
repealed. 

2. Repeal of Chicago and Metro-East Ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility 

Standards 

a. Fuel Supply Waiver Issue 

In the event of a fuel supply emergency, the USEPA, with the concurrence of the 

Department of Energy, may temporarily waive fuel requirements if doing so will alleviate the 

fuel supply emergency. Section 2ll(c)(4)(C) of the CAA authorizes USEPA to issue fi.tel 

waivers and specifies criteria for granting waivers and conditions which must be included in a 

waiver. Since 2005, the USEPA has issued two emergency fuel waivers affecting the sale of fuel 

in the State. The first, issued on August 31, 2005, in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, waived 

the stunme1time RFG emissions reduction requirements through the remainder of the high ozone 

season. The second waiver was issued on July 25, 2006, as a result of a fuel supply shortage 

when a severe thunderstorm caused widespread power outages and refinery damage in the 

Metro-East area. In this instance, the State requested, and the USEPA granted, a waiver of the 

7.2 RVP SIP requirement from July 25 through August 4, 2006. However, due to the existence 

of the Metro-East ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility Standards (35 Ill. Adm. Code 219.585), the 

State had to issue a provisional variance to this regulation in order for the USEP A waiver to 

achieve its intended effect. Repealing the existing Chicago and Metro-East ozone NAA 

Gasoline Volatility Standards, which are equivalent to, or less stringent than the RFG standards, 

would result in no loss of emissions reduction benefits, and in times of extreme and unusual fuel 

supply shortages would eliminate the RVP SIP waiver and provisional variance processes and, as 

a result, ease the transition to a temporary fuel requirement allowing other fuel to be marketed in 

the affected region. 

b. Repeal of the Chicago Ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility 

20 

32 
Standards 

As discussed supra, the purpose of the RFG program is to improve air quality by 

requiring that gasoline be reformulated to reduce motor vehicte emissions of toxic and 

tropospheric ozone-forming compounds. Section 2ll(k)(l) and 211(k)(10)(D) of the CAA 

mandate that reformulated gasoline be sold in the nine ozone NAAs having a 1980 population in 

excess of 250,000 and having the highest ozone design value during the period 1987 through 

1989. The Chicago ozone NAA was designated as one of these areas. 40 C.F.R. § 80.70(f) 

(20 l 0). The RFG program essentially supersedes the Chicago ozone NAA's summertime 9.0 psi 

RVP gasoline volatility limit with a VOC performance standard derived based on a fuel RVP of 

6.7 psi and other fuel parameters. This increase in stringency was intended to result in the 

greatest reduction in emissions of ozone-forming and toxic air pollutants achievable through the 

reformulation of conventional gasoline. Subsequently, in 2001, USEPA adjusted the VOC 

performance standard under Phase II of RFG for ethanol RJ:<"G blends containing 3.5 weight 

percent oxygen (10 volume percent ethanol) sold in the Chicago ozone NAA. 66 Fed. Reg. 

37156 (July 17, 2001). This adjustment reduced the summertime VOC performance standard by 

2.0 percentage points, which is equivalent to an increase in RVP of approximately 0.3 psi. Jd. 

Since, due to federal and state tax incentives, virtua!lylOO% of the gasoline sold in the Chicago 

ozone NAA contains I 0 volume percent ethanol, the result is an RFG RVP level of 

approximately 7.0 psi in the Chicago ozone NAA, which is still more stringent than the 9.0 psi 

RVP limit. 

The Chicago ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility Standards still remain m place and 

compliance is still technically required. As a result, maintaining the Chicago ozone NAA 

Gasoline Volatility Standards while the RFG program and requirements are in place results in 

21 

33 
inconsistency between State and federal rules. In light of the RFG program, the Gasoline 

Volatility Standards for the Chicago ozone NAA are no longer necessary and should be repealed. 

Also, as addressed supra, in the recent past, extreme storm events have impacted the supply of 

gasoline throughout the coLmtry, which has resulted in USEPA's issuance of waivers from RFG 

requirements and federal Gasoline Volatility Standards (R VP limits). By repealing the State 

Gasoline Volatility Standards, any future State action to address State RVP limits and gasoline 

supply concerns would not be necessary and would allow other fuel to be marketed in the 

affected region in a more efficient manner. 

c. Repeal of the Metro-East Ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility 

Standards 

Section 211(k)(6) of the CAA allows the governor of a state containing an ozone NAA to 

opt into the RFG program for that area. Under the 8-hour ozone NAAQS adopted in 2004, the 

Metro-East ozone NAA was designated as a "'Moderate" ozone NAA. Tn order to attain and 

maintain this NAAQS, the State is required to adopt regulations and control strategies to further 

reduce ozone-forming emissions in the Metro-East ozone NAA. As part of the strategy to attain 

the 8-hour ozone standard in this area, the State opted into the RFG program in 2006 and USEPA 

subsequently approved this request. 72 Fed. Reg. at 20237. In addition to providing ozone 

precursor and toxic emissions reduction benefits, the use of RFG would simplify fuel marketing 

in the entire St. Louis metropolitan area and, as a result, provide the petroleum industry with 

greater flexibility in meeting short-term fuel shortages and minimize distribution-related price 

fluctuations. The RFG program essentially supersedes the Metro-East ozone NAA Gasoline 

Volatility Standards, including the 7.2 psi RVP limit, with a VOC performance standard derived 

based on a fuel RVP of 6.7 psi, the same fuel being sold in St. Louis, Missouri2

. ln justifying 

2 St. Louis, Missouri opted into the RFG program in 1999. 40 C.F.R. § 80.70(k)(I) (2010). 

22 

34 
Illinois EPA's request for admission into the RFG program for the Metro-East ozone NAA, the 

Illinois EPA analyzed the emission benefits which could be achieved by switching from gasoline 

with a 7.2 psi RVP to RFG and projected that year 2010 motor vehicle emissions could be 

reduced by 5.4% and carbon monoxide reductions by 2.2%. 72 Fed. Reg. at 20240. The !llinois 

· EPA also found that the use of RFG in the Metro-East ozone NAA would decrease benzene 

emissions by 75 tons per year, which equates to a 44% reduction from motor vehicles. Jd. 

Further, on a toxic emissions basis, the Illinois EPA found that the use of RFG would reduce 

. emissions of the five primary motor vehicle-related air taxies by 63 tons per year in 2010, a total 

percentage reduction of23.5%. Jd. 

These State Gasoline Volatility Standards still remain in place and compliance is still 

technically required. As a result, maintaining these standards while the RFG program and 

· requirements are in place results in inconsistency between State and federal rules. Tn light of the 

RFG program, these State Gasoline Volatility Standards are no longer necessary and should be 

repealed. In addition, as addressed supra, by repealing these State Gasoline Volatility Standards, 

any future State action to address State RVP limits and gasoline supply concerns would not be 

necessary and would allow other fuel to be marketed in the affected region in a more efficient 

manner. 

3. Clean-up Amendments and Update of Technical References 

The Illinois EPA proposes clean-up amendments to 35 IlL Adm. Code Parts 211, 215, 

218 and 219 to update references and to be consistent with_ the proposed repeal of the State 

Gasoline Volatility Standards. The lllinois EPA proposes to update ASTM D 323 to its current 

version, ASTM D 323-08, in Section 211.101, and also in the definitions of Heavy Liquid, 

Section 211.2870, and RVP, Section 21 I .5510. In addition, the Illinois EPA proposes to remove 

23 

35 
the reference to Section 215.105 in the definition of Heavy Liquid, Section 211.2870, because 

the lllinois EPA has proposed removing ASTM D 323-82 from Part 215 with this proposal. 

The Illinois EPA proposes removing the definition ofRVP contained in Section 215.104 

because this term is only used in Section 215.585, which is proposed to be repealed, and is also 

defined in 35 Ill. Adm. Code Part 211. The Illinois EPA proposes to remove ASTM D 323-82, 

ASTM D 4057, ASTM D 4177, and 40 CPR Part 80, Appendices D, E, and F contained in 

Section 215.105 because these incorporations by reference are only found in Section 215.585, 

are outdated, and are no longer necessary with a repeal of the State Gasoline Volatility 

Standards. 

Further, the Illinois EPA proposes to remove 40 CPR Part 80 and 40 CFR Part 80, 

Appendices D, E, and F contained in Sections 218.112 and 219.112 (Incorporations by 

Reference) because this Part will no longer be necessary with a repeal of Sections 218.585 and 

219.585, and the appendices have already been repealed. Also, the Illinois EPA proposes to 

update the reference to ASTM D-323 in Sections 218.112,218.128,219.112, and 219.128 to its 

current version, ASTM D-323-08, for measuring vapor pressure. 

It is the Illinois EPA's position that the repeal of these State Gasoline Volatility 

Standards is appropriate at this time in view of the need for consistency between the Board's 

rules and USEPA regulations. Further, it is the Illinois EPA's position that the repeal of these 

rules should be accomplished as quicldy as possible to avoid another ozone season with 

conflicting regulatory requirements. 

B. Motor Vehicle Refinishing Amendments 

As discussed supra, Sections 218.784 and 219.784 set forth equipment specifications for 

owners and operators of applicable motor vehicle refinishing operations. Specifically, these 

24 

36 
Sections require the use of listed coating applicators, or spray guns, when coating motor 

vehicles, mobile equipment, or their parts and components, and also require owners and 

operators to clean all coating applicators with devices capable of performing specific functions. 

Also as discussed supra, Sections 218.792 and 219.792 require motor vehicle refmishing 

operations to register with the Illinois EPA. The purpose of this portion of the proposal is to 

allow the nse of a new spray gun that is demonstrated to achieve transfer efficiency comparable 

to a HVLP spray gun. The Illinois EPA proposes that documentation ofUSEPA's approval must 

be maintained at the motor vehicle refinishing operation. This will provide flexibility to affected 

sources by allowing them to choose an alternate means of compliance that is approved by 

USEP A. Another purpose of this portion of the proposal is to repeal the registration program 

due to the corresponding, overlapping NESHAP registration program. This will streamline the 

registration of motor vehicle refinishing operations and eliminate source confusion over multiple 

registrations. This portion of the Illinois EPA's proposal answers a need that exists in the motor 

vehicle refinishing industry. 

IV. GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS M'D SOURCES AFFECTED 

A. State Gasoline Volatilitv Standards 

1. State Ozone Attainment Area Gasoline Volatility Standards 

The geographic regions that were subject to the State Gasoline Volatility Standards 

contained in Section 215.585 were the ozone attainment areas of the State, which consist of the 

counties not included in the Chicago and Metro-East ozone NAAs, as set forth below. The 

sources affected included: petroleum refiners, importers, marketers, distributors, and carriers; 

gasoline retailers; and gasoline wholesale purchaser-consumers. However, as discussed, this 

standard was in effect for 1991 only and the federal Gasoline Volatility Standards now cover the 

25 

37 
attainment areas of the State. Thus, the attainment areas of the State and affected sources will 

not be impacted by the repeal of Section 215.585. 

2. Chicago and Metro-East Ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility Standards 

The geographic region subject to the State Gasoline Volatility Standards contained in 

Section 218.585 is the Chicago ozone NAA, which consists of the following Illinois counties: 

Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, Will, Grundy (townships of Aux Sable and Goose Lake 

only), and Kendall (Oswego township only). The geographic regions subject to the State 

Gasoline Volatility Standards cmttained in Section 219.585 are the following counties in the 

Metro-East ozone NAA: Madison, Momoe, St. Clair, and Jersey. The sources affected in the 

Chicago and Metro-East ozone NAAs include: petroleum refiners, importers, marketers, 

distributors, and carriers; gasoline retailers; and gasoline wholesale purchaser-consumers. The 

Illinois EPA bas included a list of affected sources with this proposal as Attachment B. 

As discussed supra, the Chicago and Metro-East ozone NAAs and affected sources will 

not be negatively impacted by the repeal of Sections 218.585 and 219.585 because gasoline with 

an RVP of 9.0 is no longer produced for the Chicago ozone NAA during the summer ozone 

season and gasoline with an RVP of7.2 psi is no longer in production for the Metro-East ozone 

NAA. Further, RFG is currently the required standard and is widely available for production, 

distribution, sale, and consumption. However, the Gasoline Volatility Standards for the Chicago 

and Metro-East ozone NAAs are still required standards and compliance with them is still 

technically required. 

B. Motor Vehicle Refinishing Amendments 

The geographic regions subject to 35 lil. Adm. Code Parts 218 and 219, Subpart ill! 

(Motor Vehicle Refinishing) are the Chicago and Metro-East ozone NAA counties, which 

26 

38 
consist of Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHemy, Will, Grundy (townships of Aux Sable and 

Goose Lake only), Kendall (Oswego township only), Madison, Monroe, St. Clair, and Jersey. 

The sources affected in the Chicago and Metro-East ozone NAAs include owners and operators 

of new and existing sources that engage in "motor vehicle refinishing" as defined by 35 Ill. Adm. 

Code 211.3965 and meet the applicability criteria specified in 35 Ill. Adm. Code Par!s 218 and 

219, Subpart HH. The Illinois EPA has included a list of affected sources with this proposal as 

Attachment C. 

V. TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY AND ECONOMIC REASONABLENESS 

Section 27 of the Act requires the Board to consider the technical feasibility and 

economic reasonableness of all rulemaking proposals. With respect to the Gasoline Volatility 

Standards portion of this nuemaking, the Illinois EPA is not proposing any new technology or 

requirements. With respect to the Motor Vehicle Refinishing portion of this rulemaking, the 

Illinois EPA is proposing a HVLP equivalent spray gun as an alternative compliance option and 

proposing to repeal the corresponding registration program due to overlapping federal 

registration requirements. 

A. Repeal of the State Gasoline Volatilitv Standards 

1. State Ozone Attainment Area Gasoline Volatility Standards 

The federal Gasoline Volatility Standards apply in the attainment areas of the State and 

contain the same RVP limit of 9.0 psi that Section 215.585 required during 1991. Thus, there is 

no technical feasibility issue or economic impact in repealing this inapplicable rule. In the 

Technical Suppo"rt Document, the Illinois EPA explains the technical feasibility and economic 

reasonableness aspect of the repeal of this rule. 

27 

39 
2. Gasoline Volatility Standards for the Chicago and Metro-East Ozone 

NAAs 

As a result of the Chicago ozone NAA being one of the original areas required to be a 

part of the RFG program and the State opting into the RFG program for the Metro-East ozone 

NAA, the Gasoline Volatility Standards for the Chicago and Metro-East ozone NAAs have been 

effectively superseded by the more stringent RFG program. Consequently, conventional 

gasoline with a RVP limit of 9.0 psi is no longer produced for distribution in tl1e Chicago ozone 

NAA during the summer ozone season and gasoline with a RVP limit of 7.2 psi is no longer in 

production for the Metro-East ozone NAA. The RFG program has been in place for years in the 

Chicago and Metro-East ozone NAAs and RFG is widely available for distribution, sale, and 

consumption in these areas. Thus, there is no technical feasibility issue or economic impact in 

repealing these inconsistent rules. In the Technical Support Document, the Illinois EPA explains 

the technical feasibility and economic reasonableness aspect of the repeal of these rules. 

B. Motor Vehicle Refinishing Amendments 

HVLP equivalent spray gun technology is both technically feasible and economically 

reasonable. HVLP equivalent spray guns are readily available, more efficient, the same or better 

than HVLP spray guns in controlling emissions, and may result in cost savings. Furt!1ermore, 

HVLP equivalent spray guns are allowed by federal regulations and must be approved by 

USEPA. 40 C.F.R. § 63.11173(e)(3) {2010). In the Technical Support Document, the Illinois 

EPA explains in more detail that HVLP equivalent spray guns approved by USEP A are both 

technically feasible and economically reasonable. 

Repealing the Board's motor vehicle registration program is both technically feasible and 

economically reasonable. The corresponding NESHAP for coating operations targets tl1e sources 

that the Board's motor vehicle registration program targets and the registration programs are 

28 

40 
very similar in what they require. The NESHAP's registration program is more stringent than 

the Board's registration program in that it requires an annual notification of any change from the 

initial registration, which the Board's registration does not require. 40 C.P.R. § 63.11176 

(20 1 0). Moreover, irrespective of the existence of either registration program, subject motor 

vehicle refinishing operations must comply with the substantive provisions of both the NESHAP 

and the Board's motor vehicle refinishing requirements which contain the applicable control 

requirements that limit emissions from such operations. Repealing the Board's registration 

program and the continued applicability of the NESHAP registration program will streamline 

registration for motor vehicle refinishing sources and avoid confusion over two separate 

registration requirements. 

VI. COMMUNICATION WITH INTERESTED PARTIES 

A. Repeal of the State Gasoline Volatilitv Standards 

The Illinois EPA has engaged in outreach regarding this aspect of its proposal by 

contacting the following stakeholders: Illinois Petroleum Counsel; Illinois Petroleum Marketers 

Association; Illinois Com Growers Association; Renewable Fuels Association (Ethanol National 

Trade Association); Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity; and the 

American Lung Association. The Illinois EPA has not received any indication of concern 

regarding this aspect of its proposaL 

B. Motor Vehicle Refinishing Amendments 

The illinois EPA has engaged in outreach regarding this aspect of its proposal. The 

Illinois EPA partnered with the Illinois Small Business Environmental Assistance Program ("IL 

SBEAP") to conduct outreach regarding allowing for an equivalent HVLP spray gun. The IL 

SBEAP has provided notice, and reqnested comment, regarding this aspect of Illinois EPA's 

29 

41 
proposal in its October 2010 newsletter. The lllinois EPA has received only positive support 

regarding this aspect of the proposal. In addition, the Illinois EPA has been in contact with 

USEPA, Region V regarding allowing for an equivalent HVLP spray gun and repealing the 

registration program. Region V has provided its support.

VIII. CONCLUSION 

The Illinois EPA proposes a repeal of the State ozone attainment area Gasoline Volatility 

Standards at 35 Ill. Adm. Code Section 215.585 to bring the rulebooks current. In addition, the 

Illinois EPA proposes a repeal of the Chicago and Metro-East ozone NAA Gasoline Volatility 

Standards at 35 IlL Adm. Code Sections 218.585 and 219.585 as a result of the applicability of 

RFG in the Chicago and Metro-East ozone NAAs. Further, the Illinois EPA proposes clean-up 

amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code Parts 211, 215, 218 and 219 to make necessary updates and to 

be consistent with the repeal of the State Gasoline Volatility Standards. The Illinois EPA 

respectfully requests that the Board expeditiously repeal the State Gasoline Volatility Standards 

in order to avoid another ozone season with conflicting regulatory requirements. Finally, th~ 

Illinois EPA proposes amendments to 35 TIL Adm. Code Sections 218.784 and 219.784 to allow

a) Except as provided in subsection (d) below, the owner or operator of each storage 

vessel with a design capacity greater than or equal to 40,000 gallons storing a 

liquid with a maximum true vapor pressure that is normally less than 0.75 psia 

shall notifY the Agency within 30 days when the maximum true vapor pressure of 

the liquid exceeds 0. 75 psia. 

b) Available data on the storage temperature may be used to determine the maximum 

true vapor pressure. 

I) For vessels operated above or below antbient temperatures, the maximum 

true vapor pressure is calculated based upon the highest expected 

calendar-month average of the storage temperature. For vessels operated 

at ambient temperatures, the maximum true vapor pressure is calculated

liquid with a maximum true vapor pressure that is normally less than 0.75 psia 

shall notifY the Agency within 30 days when the maximum true vapor pressure of 

the liquid exceeds 0. 7 5 psia. 

b) Available data on the storage temperature may be used to determine the maximum 

true vapor pressure. 

1) For vessels operated above or below ambient temperatures, the maximum 

true vapor pressure is calculated based upon the highest expected calendarmonth average of the storage temperature. For vessels operated at ambient 

temperatures, the maximum true vapor pressure is calculated based upon 

the maximum local monthly average ambient temperature as reported by 

the National Weather Service. 

2) For other liquids, the vapor pressure:

1.0 Introduction 

The Illinois Envirorunental Protection Agency ("Illinois EPA") is proposing to repeal the State 

oflllinois Gasoline Volatility Standards at 35 Ill. Adm. Code Section 215.585 for the ozone 

attainment area, 218.585 for the Chicago ozone nonattaimnent area ("NAA''), and 219.585 for 

the Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA. The State gasoline volatility regulations have essentially 

been superseded by federal motor fuel regulations contained in Sections 2ll(h) and 2ll(k) of the 

Clean Air Act ("CAA'') Amendments of 1990. The lllinois EPA is proposing to repeal the State 

regulations in order to delete a duplicative and conflicting requirement and tc relieve the 

administrative burden associated with the development of waivers during periods of fuel supply 

shortages. The Illinois EPA proposes clean-up amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code Parts 211, 215, 

218 and 219 to update references and to be consistent with the proposed repeal of the State 

Gasoline Volatility Standards. 

The Illinois EPA is also proposing to revise certain requirements of the State Motor Vehicle 

Refinishing regulations in 35 Ill. Adm. Code Parts 218 and 219, Subpart HH. The Illinois EPA 

proposes to allow the use of paint applicator equipment that has been demonstrated to be 

equivalent to the currently-required high volume low pressure ("HVLP") equipment. This 

flexibility will allow motor vehicle refinishing operations to utilize equipment that may be less 

costly and more efficient in applying coatings and result in reduced coating usage and lower 

operating costs. The Illinois EPA is also proposing to repeal the State Motor Vehicle 

Refmishing regulation registration requirement as registration is currently required Wlder federal 

regulations affecting such operations. 

3 

193 
The proposed revisions are not considered to be controversial and, in fact, are supported by the 

affected industries. The proposed revisions will repeal redundant or outdated regulations and 

offer the business owner flexibility in meeting cunent requirements. Such flexibility could result 

in a reduction in business operating costs as well as a decrease in emissions. Feedback from 

outreach conducted by the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity Small 

Business Envirornnental Assistance Program ("SBEAP") and the lllinois EPA has indicated 

widespread support for the proposed revisions. 

As the Statement of Reasons for this proposal thoroughly details the evolution of the above 

regulations, this document will address the current regulations and the proposed 

revisions/deletions. 

2.0 Gasoline Volatilitv Regulations 

The State of Illinois enacted limits to the summertime volatility of gasoline through regulations 

at 35 Ill. Adm. Code Section 215.585 for the Illinois ozone attainment area, 218.585 for the 

Chicago ozone NAA, and 219.585 for the Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA. These regulations 

have since been replaced or essentially superseded by federal regulations adopted pursuaot to 

Sections 21 !(c) (later Sections 21 I (h)) aod 2Il(k) of the CAA. For this reason, and to relieve an 

administrative burden in times of regional fuel shortage, the Illinois EPA is proposing that the 

State regulations be repealed. Below is a discussion of each of the cunent regulations aod the 

associated federal regulation. 

4 

194 
2.1 Statewide Ozone Attainment Area 

The 2!5.585 State gasoline volatility regulation for the ozone attainment area applied only to the 

year 1991 and limited the Reid vapor pressure ("RVP") of gasoline sold, offered for sale, 

dispensed, supplied, offered for supply or transported for use in Illinois between June 1 and 

September 15 to 9.0 pounds per square inch ("psi") sold. Ethanol blends containing 9 to I 0 

percent ethanol by volume were allowed to have an RVP up to I 0.0 psi. As described in the 

Statement of Reasons, pursuant to Section 211(c) of the CAA, the United States Environmental 

Protection Agency ("USEPA") adopted gasoline volatility standards which set maximum RVP 

limits for gasoline sold during the May I to September 15 control period. Beginning in 1992, 

these regulations limited the RVP of gasoline sold in Illinois to 9.0 psi. These regulations also 

allowed an additional 1.0 psi for ethanol blends containing 9 to 10 volume percent ethanol. 

As the Section 215.585 State gasoline volatility regulation was only in force in 1991, and the 

standards adopted therein are identical to the national RVP standards which apply in the State 

attainment areas, the Illinois EPA believes that there is no longer any utility in maintaining the 

State gasoline volatility standard and is proposing that it be repealed. 

2.2 Chicago Ozone Nonattainment Area 

The State gasoline volatility standards affecting the Chicago ozone NAA are found at 35 Ill 

Adm. Code 218.585. The Chicago ozone NAA includes Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHemy 

and Will Counties and Aux Sable and Goose Lake Townships in Grundy County and Oswego 

Township in Kendall County. This regulation limits the RVP of gasoline sold, offered for sale, 

5 

195 
dispensed, supplied, offered for supply or transported for use in the Chicago ozone NAA during 

the May l through September 15 control period to 9.0 psi. A 1.0 psi allowance is granted for 9 

to 1 0 volume percent ethanol blends. 

Section 21!(k:) of the CAA requires the use of reformulated gasoline ("RFG") in the nine ozone 

NAAs having a 1990 population in excess of250,000 and having the highest ozone design value 

during the period 1987 through 1989. The Chicago NAA met this criteria and the use of RFG 

was required beginning in 1995. As described in the Statement of Reasons, Phase II of the RFG 

program went into effect in 2000 and requires a 27.4% (averaging) reduction in summertime 

(May 1 through September 15) VOC emissions from RFG in VOC control region 2 (northern 

areas), which includes Chicago. Compliance with the RFG standards is measured by inputting 

specific gasoline characteristic parameters into the "complex model." The fuel parameters 

include RVP, oxygen, sulfur, aromatics, olefins, benzene, and the percent of fuel evaporated at 

200 and 300 degrees Fahrenheit (E200 and E300, respectively.) The model evaluates the 

emissions from the RFG blend compared to the 27.4% reduction baseline. Although the RVP of 

the fuel is an important characteristic in determining the emissions from the fuel blend, the RFG 

standards do not establish a maximum volatility. Rather a refmer or blender can vary the 

specific parameters as long as the resultant blend meets the complex model overall emission 

reduction specification. In general though, the RVP for northern summertime RFG blends is in 

the range of 6.7 to 7.2 psi, we!l below the maximum limits established in 218.585. Therefore, 

the . more stringent RFG requirements surpass the State Chicago NAA gasoline volatility 

regulations and render them obsolete, yet they remain in effect and compliance is still required. 

6 

196 
The existence of the Chicago NAA gasoline volatility standards also become an obstacle in times 

of fuel shortages. In the event of a regional fuel shortage, Section 2ll(c)(4)(c) of the CAA 

allows the USEPA, with the concurrence of the Department of Energy, to temporarily waive fuel 

requirements in order that other fuel can be brought into the area and sold. The USEPA has 

issued two such emergency fuel waivers since 2005, one due to the impact of Hurricane Katrina, 

and a second due to damage caused by a severe storm at a Metro-East St. Louis area refinery. In 

these instances, the USEPA gramed a short-term waiver from the RFG regulations, but due to the 

existence of the State Chicago NA_A. gasoline volatility 'standards, the State had to issue a 

provisional variance to the regulation in order for the USEPA waiver to achieve its intended 

effect. Repealing the existing Chicago NAA gasoline volatility standards, which are less 

stringent than the RFG standards, would result in no loss of emissions reduction benefits, and in 

times of regional fuel shortage, would eliminate the RVP State Implementation Plan ("SIP") 

waiver and provisional variance processes, allowing other fuel to be marketed in the affected 

region in a more efficient manner. 

2.3 Metro-East St. Louis Ozone Nonattainrnent Area 

The State gasoline volatility regulation affecting the Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA is found at 

35 Ill Adm. Code 219.585. The Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA includes Madison, Monroe, 

St. Clair and Jersey County. As described in the Statement of Reasons, in order to meet the 

CAA 15% Rate of Progress emissions requirement and to strive for consistency in the fuel 

required across the St. Louis metropolitan area, the Illinois EPA proposed, and the Illinois 

7 

197 
Pollution Control Board adopted, a more stringent gasoline volatility regulation in 1994. This 

regulation limits the RVP of gasoline sold, offered for sale, dispensed, supplied, offered for 

supply or transported for use in the Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA during the May 1 through 

September 15 control period to 7.2 psi. A 1.0 psi allowance is granted for 9 to 10 volume 

percent ethanol blends. 

In addition to the areas required to market RFG as defined in the CAA, State Governors can 

petition the USEPA for the inclusion of other NAAs in the RFG program. Accordingly, the State 

of Illinois "opted-in" to the RFG program for the Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA in July 2006 

with the program becoming effective in July 2007. The required use of VOC control region 1 

RFG would achieve additional emissions reductions beyond the Metro-East St. Louis ozone 

NAA 7.2 psi RVP limit and would harmonize the fuel requirements across the region as Missouri 

had opted-in the RFG program for the St. Louis portion of the ozone NAA in 1999, 

Similar to the situation in Chicago, when regional fuel shortages occurred and the USEPA issued 

a waiver from the RFG requirements to allow the flow of other fuels into the region, the State 

had to issue a provisional variance to the Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA volatility regulation 

in order for the USEPA waiver to achieve its intended effect. Repealing the existing Metro-East 

St. Louis ozone NAA gasoline volatility standards, which are less stringent than the RFG 

standards, would result in no loss of emissions reduction benefits, and in times of regional fuel 

shortage, would eliminate the R VP SIP waiver and provisional variance processes, allowing 

other fuel to be marketed in the affected region in a more efficient manner. 

8 

198 
2.4 Clean-up Amendments and Update of Technical References 

The Tllinois EPA proposes clean-up amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code Parts 211, 215, 218 and 

219 to update references and to be consistent with the proposed repeal of the State Gasoline 

Volatility Standards. The Illinois EPA proposes to update the reference to ASTM D 323 to its 

current version, ASTM D 323-08, in Section 211.101, and also in the definitions of Heavy 

Liquid, Section 21!.2870, and RVP, Section 211.5510. In addition, the Illinois EPA proposes to 

remove the reference to Section 215.105 in the definition of Heavy Liquid, Section 211.2870, 

because the Illinois EPA has proposed removing ASTM D 323-82 from Part 215 with this 

proposal. 

The Illinois EPA proposes removing the definition ofRVP contained in Section 215 .I 04 because 

this te1m is only used in Section 215.585, which is proposed to be repealed, and is also defined in 

35 Ill. Adm. Code Part 211. The Illinois EPA proposes to remove ASTM D 323-82, ASTM D 

4057, ASTM D 4177, and 40 CFR Part 80, Appendices D, E, and F contained in Section 215.105 

because these incorporations by reference are only found in Section 215.585, are outdated, and 

are no longer necessary with a repeal of the State Gasoline Volatility Standards. 

Further, the Illinois EPA proposes to remove 40 CFR Part 80 and 40 CFR Part 80, Appendices 

D, E, and F contained in Sections 218.112 and 219.112 (Incorporations by Reference) because 

this Part will no longer be necessary with a repeal of Sections 218.585 and 219.585, and the 

appendices have already been repealed. Also, the Tllinois EPA proposes to update the reference 

to ASTM D-323 in Sections 218.112, 218.128, 219.112, and 219.128 to its current version, 

9 

199 
ASTM D-323-08, for measuring vapor pressure. 

It is the Illinois EPA's position that the repeal of these State Gasoline Volatility Stanoards is 

appropriate at this time in view of the need for consistency between the Board's rules and 

USEPA regulations. Further, it is the Illinois EPA's position that the repeal of these rules should 

be accomplished as quickly as possible to avoid another ozone season with conflicting regulatory 

requirements. 

2.5 Impacts of Gasoline Volatility Regulation Proposal 

The repeal of the 215.585 ozone attainment area gasoline volatility standards would result in no 

loss of emissions reductions as it applied only in 1991. The intent of the rule has been fulfilled 

through the USEPA's volatility standards adopted pursuant to Section 2ll(c) of the CAA. The 

repeal of the Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis gasoline volatility standards, Sections 218.585 

and 219.585, respectively, would result in no loss of emissions reductions as the current federal 

RFG standards achieve additional emissions reductions benefits beyond the State standards. The 

repeal of the Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA gasoline volatility standards would 

relieve the administrative burden associated with the development and submission of SIP 

waivers and provisional variances in times of regional fuel shortage when the USEPA has issued 

waivers to the RFG standards for either area, allowing a more expeditious flow ofpermitted,fuel 

into the affected areas. The proposed deletions will not result in any increase in costs to entities 

currently affected by the State regulations. 

10 
3.0 Motor Vehicle Refinishing 

As thoroughly discussed in the Statement of Reasons, in I 995, the Illinois EPA proposed and the 

Illinois Pollution Control Board adopted regulations to control volatile organic material 

("VOM") emissions from motor vehicle refinishing operations located in the Chicago and MetroEast St. Louis ozone NAAs at 35 lii Adm. Code Sections 218.780 - 218.792 and 219.780-

219.792, respectively. These regulations were developed based on a USEP A Alternative Control 

Techniques document which recommended technologically feasible and economically 

reasonable control measures to reduce emissions from such operations. The lllinois EPA's 

proposed revisions affect two elements of the motor vehicle refinishing regulation: the 

equipment specifications and the registration requirements. Each of these is discussed below. 

3.1 Motor Vehicle Refinishing Equipment Specifications 

One of the controls included in the adopted regulation at 218/219.784(a) was an equipment 

specification that required the use of either electrostatic spray equipment or HVLP spray 

equipment." HVLP is defined at 35 !11 Adm. Code Section 211.2990 meaning "equipment used to 

apply coatings by means of a spray gun which operates between 0.1 and I 0 psig [pounds per 

square inch gauge] air pressure." Limiting the pressure of the paint spray stream reduced the 

amount of overspray of paint from the surface being painted, thereby reducing paint usage and 

VOM emissions. HVLP equipment was considered "state-of-the-art" in minimizing paint usage 

in the mid-!990s. Since that time, however, paint applicator gun technology has advanced and 

11 

201 
equivalent or better transfer efficiency has been demonstrated by spray guns that exceed the 1 0 

psig HVLP upper limit. Acknowledging this, the USEPA's National Emission Standards for 

Hazardous Air Pollutants ("NESHAP") ( 40 CFR 63, Subpart HHHHHH) that affects smface 

coating of motor vehicles includes HVLP spray guns among those guns permitted for such 

coating, but also allows the use of an equivalent technology demonstrated to be equal in transfer 

efficiency to HVLP. The USEP A's Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards reviews 

technical spray gun testing documentation provided by spray gWl manufactmers and, when 

appropriate, issues official determinations that the subject spray guns "are capable of achieving 

equivalent or better transfer efficiency than the HVLP spray equipment" As such, these guns 

are approved for the application of coatings subject to the NESHAP. A copy of a USEPA letter 

making a finding of HVLP equivalence is included as Attaclunent A. The NESHAP requires 

that shops maintain docmnentation from each spray gun manufactmer for each model of spray 

gun that does not meet the definition of an HVLP spray gun, electrostatic spray gun, airless spray 

gun, or air-assisted airless spray gun but that demonstrates the subject spray gW1 achieves a 

transfer efficiency equal to one of the other allowed types of guns. The proposed State motor 

vehicle refinishing rule revision includes the same equivalency documentation J;"equirement. 

The Agency understands that there are at least 12 non-HVLP spray gWlS produced by several 

different manufacturers that have been determined by the USEP A to be HVLP equivalent · A 

table identifying USEPA-approved HVLP-equivalent spray guns is included as Attachment B. 

Therefore, in order to provide the flexibility for auto refinishing operations to use such 

equivalent equipment, the Agency is proposing the following underscored revision to the Section 

2!8/219.784(a) equipment specifications: 

12 

202 
Section 218.784 Equipment Specifications 

Every owner or operator of a motor vehicle refinishing operation, unless the source uses 

less than 20 gallons of coating per calendar year from all motor vehicle refinishing 

operations combined, shall: 

a) Coat motor vehicles, mobile equipment, or their parts and components 

using one of the following coating applicators: 

1) Electrostatic spray equipment calibrated, operated and maintained 

in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications; or 

2) High Volume Low Pressure (HVLP) spray equipment calibrated, 

operated and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's 

specifications; Qr ami 

3) An equivalent coating applicator technology that is demonstrated 

by the manufacturer to achieve transfer efficiencv comparable to 

the HVLP spray equipment technology listed in subsection (a)(2) 

of this Section for a comparable operation. and for which written 

approval has been obtained from the USEPA. The owner or 

operator must maintain documentation of the USEP A's approval at 

the motor vehicle refmishing operation; and 

The Illinois EPA believes that the Board's adoption of the proposed equipment specification 

revision would allow motor vehicle refinishing operations to choose to use more efficient 

equipment that achieve the same or better emissions controls and reduce costs. This proposed rule 

revision does not impose any additional requirements on motor vehicle refinishing operations 

choosing to continue using the currently required electrostatic or HVLP spray guns. If shop 

owners choose to use HVLP-equivalent spray guns they must maintain documentation from the 

spray gun manufacturer of USEPA's approval of such gun(s) being determined equivalent. The 

NESHAP contains this same requirement. The Agency believes that the cost to maintain such 

records is negligible. 

l3 

203 
3.2 Motor Vehicle Refinishing Registration Requirement 

The second element of the proposed revision to the Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis ozone 

NAA motor vehicle refinishing regulations deals with the repeal of the registration requirement 

found at 35lll. Adm. Code 218/219.792. The registration requirements include providing source 

contact information, descriptions of coating operations, and certain certifications. The USEP A 

NESHAP also contains a registration requirement which includes an annual notification of 

changes, and also contains recordkeeping requirements. Copies of both the current Illinois EPA 

"Motor Vehicle Refinishing Operations Registration Form" adopted for compliance with the 

State regulations and the SBEAP "Motor Vehicle Refinishing Initial Notification/Compliance 

Certification/Notification of Changes & Illinois EPA Motor Vehicle Refmishing Registration" 

form are included in Attachment C. The SBEAP form is used to certify compliance with both 

the State regulation and the NESHAP. These registration notifications are submitted to the 

Illinois EPA because it has been delegated authority to implement and enforce this NESHAP. 

This NESHAP targets the same sources that the State motor vehicle refmishing rules affect and 

the SBEAP form includes all the information requested by the State form as well as additional 

information specific to the NESHAP requirements. Based on these redundant registration 

requirements, the Illinois EPA is proposing that the State 218/219.792 registration requirements 

be deleted. Deletion of these requirements would slightly ease the compliance burden on 

regulated entities while still providing the Illinois EPA all needed facility information. 

4.0 Affected Sources 

The sources affected by the proposed deletion of the three Illinois gasoline volatility regulations 

include: petroleum refiners, importers, marketers, distributors, and carriers; gasoline retailers; 

14 

204 
and gasoline wholesale purchaser-consumers. Listings of Illinois gas stations, gasoline bulk 

plants and terminals are included in this rulemaking proposal. 

However, as the Illinois regulations have been replaced or essentially been superseded by federal 

regulations, no additional compliance burden would be imposed on any of these entities due to 

the Illinois Pollution Control Board adoption of the proposed repeals and revisions. In fact, by 

no longer needing to seek a fuel waiver and provisional variance from the State in times of 

regional fuel shortage, the lllinois EPA believes that their administrative burden will be slightly 

relieved. As discussed, the Chicago and Metro-East ozone ,NAAs and affected sources will not 

be negatively impacted by the repeal of Sections 218.585 and 219.585 because gasoline with an 

R VP of 9.0 is no longer produced for the Chicago ozone NAA during the summer ozone season 

and gasoline with an RVP of 7.2 psi is no longer in production for the Metro-East St. Louis 

ozone NAA. Further, RFG is currently the required standard and is widely available for 

production, distribution, sale, and consumption. However, the Gasoline Volatility Standards for 

the Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAAs are still required standards and compliance 

with them is still technically required. 

The proposed revisions to the 35 Ill. Adm. Code Parts 218 and 219, Subprut HH (Motor Vehicle 

Refinishing) regulations affect owners and operators of new and existing sources in the Chicago 

and Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA that engage in "motor vehicle refinishing" as defined by 

35 Ill. Adm. Code 211.3965 and meet the applicability criteria specified in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 

Parts 218 and 219, Subpart HH. The Illinois EPA has included a list of affected motor vehicle 

refinishing operations in this rulemaking proposal. 

15 

205 
5.0 Technical Feasibility and Economic Reasonableness 

The proposed revisions to the State gasoline volatility and motor vehicle refinishing regulations 

impose no new requirements on affected parties. The proposed revisions to the State attairunent 

area gasoline volatility standards (215.585) delete an expired and duplicative regulation. The 

proposed deletions of the Chicago ozone NAA (218.585) and Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA 

(219.585) gasoline volatility standards remove requirements that have essentially been 

superseded by the provisions of the more stringent federal RFG program. Gasoline meeting the 

federal RFG requirements has been required in the Chicago ozone NAA since 1995 and in the 

Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA since July 2007. The discussed repeal of the regulations will 

also reduce the administrative burden of seeking fuel waivers and provisional variances during 

times of regional fuel shortages. As the proposed revisions reduce impacts on affected sources, 

the Illinois EPA believes that there is no issue of technical feasibility or economic 

reasonableness. 

With respect to the Motor Vehicle Refinishing portion of this rulemaking, the lllioois EPA is 

proposing to allow the use of an HVLP-equivalent spray gun as an alternative compliance option 

and proposing to repeal the corresponding registration program due to overlapping federal 

registration requirements. Regarding the equipment specifications, the USEPA NESHAP allows 

the use of HVLP-equiva!ent paint spray guns. The USEPA has approved the use of twelve such 

HVLP-equivalent spray gun models, listed in Attachment B, demonstrating that they are 

16 

206 
teclmically feasible and readily available. The Illinois EPA understands the HVLP-equivalent 

spray guns can be less expensive than the currently reqnired HVLP guns. Therefore, allowing 

the use of HVLP-equivalent guns would provide a direct economic benefit to affected sources 

purchasing such equipment. Even if the HVLP-equivalent guns were the same price or more 

expensive, an indirect economic benefit could be afforded sources wishing to purchase such 

guns due to their increased paint transfer efficiency. Therefore, allowing the use of HVLPequivalent spray guns is economically reasonable. 

Regarding the proposed deletion of the State motor vehicle refinishing facility registration 

requirement, since the USEP A NESHAP includes a registration provision requesting similar and 

additional information, deletion of the State requirement would remove a duplicative regulation. 

Such action would decrease the administrative burden on such sources while still providing the 

Illinois EPA all necessary information. Therefore,· the Illinois EPA believes that decreasing such 

administrative burden is technically feasible and economically reasonable. 

In summary, the proposed revisions are intended to repeal expired or duplicative regulations and 

allow the use of equipment which is equivalent to current specifications, but that may be less 

expensive or provide even better efficiency. The proposed revisions do not require the purchase, 

installation, or operation of any emissions control equipment or any operational practices other 

than the maintenance of documents already required by the NESHAP. Therefore, the lllinois 

EPA believes that the proposed rule revisions are technically feasible and economically 

reasonable. 

17 

207 
6.0 Conclusion 

The Illinois EPA is requesting the Illinois Pollution Control Board to repeal the State ozone 

attainment area Gasoline Volatility Standards at 35 Ill. Adm. Code Section 215.585 as it is no 

longer in force and has been superseded by Federal gasoline volatility standards. In addition, the 

Illinois EPA proposes a repeal of the Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis ozone NAA Gasoline 

Volatility Standards at 35 ill. Adm. Code Sections 218.585 and 219.585 as these regulations 

have essentially been superseded by the applicability of the federal RFG program in those areas. 

Further, the Illinois EPA proposes clean-up amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code Parts 211, 215, 

218 and 219 to make necessary updates and to be consistent with the repeal of the State Gasoline 

Volatility Standards. Finally, the Illinois EPA proposes amendments to the Subpart HH Motor 

Vehicle Refinishing Equipment Specifications at 35 Ill. Adm. Code Sections 218.784 and 

219.784 to allow for the use of HVLP-equivalent spray guns in motor vehicle refinishing 

operations, and proposes a repeal of the registration program at 3 5 Ill. Adm. Code Sections 

218.792 and 219.792 due to overlapping federal registration requirements. 

Adoption of this proposal will reduce the administrative burden on businesses involved in 

gasoline marketing and motor vehicle refinishing. It will also allow motor vehicle refmishing 

shops to utilize less expensive and/or more efficient paint applicator guns, thereby reducing costs 

and possible emissions. Through feedback during outreach conducted by the Illinois EPA and 

the SBEAP vl'ith the affected industries, affected sources are in favor of the proposed· changes. 

For these reasons, the Illinois EPA hereby submits this regulatory proposal and regpec1fully 

requests that the Board amend Parts 211, 215, 218 and 219 for the State ofillinois.

Equivalency ofDeVilbiss Non-HVLP Gravity Feed Spray Guns For EPA approval per 40 CFR 

63.11173(e)," dated 2/8/11; 

The results of the transfer efficiency testing performed indicate that the DeVilbiss spray guns are 

capable of achieving equivalent or better transfer efficiency than the HVLP spray equipment. As a 

result, the DeVilbiss spray guns are approved for use in operations subject to §63.11173(e)(3) of40 CFR 

part 63 subpart HHHHHH, Paint Stripping arid Miscellaoeous Surface Coating Operations. This 

approval is subject to the following conditions. 

I. DeVilbiss Automotive Refinishing shall supply written notification with each DeVilbiss spray 

gun sold or distributed that the spray gun is approved as providing equivalent transfer efficiency 

as HVLP spray guns for the application of coatings subject to 40 CPR Part 63 Subpart 

HHHHHH 

2. TI1is approval is only valid for the DeVilbiss spray guns if the air pressure supplied is equal to 

or less than that stated for each spray gun below:

1. Who Must Complete This Form? 

On January 9, 2008, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Issued a rule addressing hazardous air pollutant 

(HAP) emissions at area source facilities conducting paint stripping and miscellaneous surface coating activities. The rule 

(40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHHH) regulates facilities conducting the following activities: 

o Paint strtpping operations that use materials containing methylene chloride, 

o Spray application of coatings to motor vehicle and mobile equipment, including mobile repair operations, and 

o Spray application of coatings to plastic and/or metal parts and products, if the coatings used contain one or more of 

the target HAPs (chromium, lead, manganese, nickel, or cadmium). 

Specific operations and activities exempted from the regulation are described in Section 6 below. 

If the auto refinisher conducts any one of the operations listed above and does not meet the exemption criteria in Section 6, 

this form must be completed and submitted to US EPA and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency at the addresses 

fisted in Section 4, unless the facility has filed a petition of exemption with USEPA and been granted exemption from the 

surface coating portion of the rule and does not perform paint stripping using methylere chlolide .. 

In addition, illinois motor vehicle refinishers located in the following counties: McHenry, Lake, DuPage, Kane, Cook, Kendall 

(Oswego Township only), Grundy (Goose Lake and Aux Sable Townships only), Will, Madison, Monroe and St. Clair must 

also comply with State of Illinois requirements under Subpart HH of 35 Illinois Administrative Code 218.780-218.792 and 

219.780-219.792 and must file this form to satisfy registration requirements if they have not already registered with the 

Illinois Environmental Protection Agency. Facilities cannot petition for exemption from Subpart HH of 35 Illinois
