SUSPART A: GENERAL PROVISIONS
Section 228.101 Authority
Pursuant to the authority in Sections 9. 10 and 13 of the Environmental Protection Act (111. Rev. Stat. 1981. ch..Ill 1/2. ;pars. loot et seq.) (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 spec WyTi^thVmzrfcwxrawxmtr or
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 equ ipmenC or fiefTltycapabTe
of causing or contributing to air pollution; and to promulgate "conditions regarding the...use of any...article determined by the Board to constitute an air 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
-eg,
. , If
"Hr a) It Is.the purpose of the General Assembly In y
adopting the Act to maintain and enhance the
purity of Uirztrinl water Of lTHnois ift *.-
-order .to protect, health, welfare and the
. fJ
quality of life. Accordingly, It is hereby
determined that the uncontrolled discharge of asbestos fiber fnto the avfPbnraenr'KwdS'to
severely endanger the public health and
welfare and that the uncontrolled spraying or
f Iber-contatning materia-ls unreasonably
Interferes with the enjoyment of Itfe 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 not 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 fiber
which can be toxic and which tends to be cumulative 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 Instance's Where' restrfcttor"-tr"
unfeasible because of the unusual nature of the emission source (spray asbestos at construction sites) a product ban has been resorted to. Ihis prohibition has been made
with full consideration given to'lfi'e
available alternative materials.
