35 Ill. Adm. Code 617.220
Management Systems for Potential Sources
Section 617
Section 617.220 Management
Systems for Potential Sources
a) The owner or operator of any potential tertiary source of
groundwater contamination located wholly or partially within the regulated
recharge area must develop and implement a chemical substances management
system that must include the following:
1) a brief description of how the on-site chemical substances are
stored and used;
2) a potential release assessment and the response procedures to
be followed by the facility for notifying local emergency response agencies;
3) management measures that are employed to reduce the potential
for releases; and
4) training provided by the Agency under Section 617.225.
b) The owner or operator of an existing potential tertiary source
of groundwater contamination located wholly or partially within the regulated recharge
area must:
1) Within 90 days after September 1, 2001, register for the
training required under Section 617.225; and
2) Within 120 days after September 1, 2001, attend an Agency-sponsored
training program required under Section 617.225 before the development of the
required chemical substances management plan (CSMP).
c) The owner or operator of an existing potential tertiary source
of groundwater contamination located wholly or partially within the regulated
recharge area must, within 180 days after the training required under Section
617.225, develop a CSMP and make it available on-site.
d) The chemical substances management system for a new potential
tertiary source must also include secondary containment. Chemical substance
storage areas regulated under this Subpart must have a constructed or prefabricated
containment system that is operated as follows:
1) When not protected from receiving precipitation, the
constructed or prefabricated containment system must have:
A) a minimum containment volume of a 6-inch rain storm (a 25-year,
24-hour rain);
B) the capacity of the largest container or tank; and
C) the volume displaced by the bases of the other tanks located
within the secondary containment structure.
2) When protected from receiving precipitation, the constructed
or prefabricated containment system must have a minimum containment volume of
100 percent of the capacity of the largest container or tank, plus the volume
displaced by the bases of the other containers or tanks.
3) The owner or operator must prevent run-on into the prefabricated
or constructed secondary containment system unless the collection system has
sufficient excess capacity in addition to that required in subsection (d)(1) to
contain any run-on that might enter the constructed or prefabricated
containment system.
4) The owner or operator must remove spilled or leaked material and
accumulated precipitation from the sump or collection area in a timely manner
to prevent overflow of the collection system.
e) The owner or operator of a new potential tertiary source of
groundwater contamination located wholly or partially within the regulated
recharge area must:
1) register for the training required under Section 617.225 at
least 30 days before the commencement of construction; and
2) attend an Agency sponsored training program required under
Section 617.225 within 60 days after registration.
f) The owner or operator of a potential primary or secondary
source must review the facility's chemical management practices and take any
necessary actions to ensure protection equivalent to subsection (a) or (d).
g) The owner or operator of a potential tertiary source of
groundwater contamination must do the following unless an equivalent CSMP has
been prepared and filed:
1) maintain a CSMP at the facility at all times;
2) review the CSMP annually;
3) clearly identify changes in the CSMP;
4) provide a copy of the initial Plan to the appropriate local
fire department and police response agency; and
5) make the CSMP available for inspection by the public during
normal operating hours.
