SUSPART A: GENERAL PROVISIONS
Section 228.101 Authority
Pursuant to. the authority In Sections 9. 10 and 13 f the Environmental Protection Act (111. tev. Stat. 1981. ch..ill 1/2.;pars. 1001 et scd.) (Act) which empower the Pollution Control Board (Board) to adopt regulations forbidding the "sale, offer, or use for. reasons of air " pollution control" of any.article, and to set "standards tpcttfytwythg-iarlumwr-awouwtoc-' concentrations of various contaminants that may be discharged Into the atmosphere;* and to set standards for the Issuance of permits for the operation of any equIjwenC'orraefTTty-cspztSTe - of causing or contributing to air pollution; .and .. to promulgate "conditions regarding the...use of * any...art tele determined, by the Board to .constitute an.'Alir pollution hazard;" and to adopt effluent standards limiting the .amounts .of contaminants that may be discharged Into the water of Illinois, the Board adopts the following rules and regulations.
. Section 228.102 Policy
.
a) It Is. the purpose of the General Assembly In adopting the Act to maintain and enhance the
purity of the-atrand water of~Mno4- Mr -order to protects health, welfare and the
quality of life. Accordingly. It Is hereby ' determined that the uncontrolled discharge of
as'bestos fiber Into the ehvflfonmenr"CendV'to severely endanger the public health and welfare and that the uncontrolled spraying of
riber-contatntng-aler laTruwreaionably
Interferes with the enjoyment of life and property.
b) It Is the purpose of these regulations to control the amount, of asbestos fiber released into the environment from-the major sources.: of emission. Such control is necessary ncit only to protect .those.members of the public who are In proximity to heavy concentrations
. of asbestos fiber but-also to. safeguard the
health of future generations endangered by the continuous discharge of asbestos fiberwhich can be tox-tc and which tends to be cuxulallve both in the atmosphere and in the
human body.
c) Where health can be protected by the adoption of an emission standard or of procedural
- safeguards., such a course has been pursued. In those Instances where nestrtcttmr-VT'
unfeasible because of the unusual nature of the emission source (spray asbestos at construction sites) a product ban has been resorted to. This prohibition has been made
with full consideration given to "Che
available alternative materials.
