Tier 1 Remediation Objectives Tables for the Indoor Inhalation Exposure Route
Effective May 15, 201337 Ill. Reg. 7506AUTHORITY: Implementing Sections 22.4, 22.12, Title XVI, and Title XVII and authorized by Sections 27 and 58.5 of the Environmental Protection Act [415 ILCS 5/22.4, 22.12, 27, and 58.5 and Title XVI and Title XVII].POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD
a) For the indoor inhalation exposure route:
- 1) Appendix B, Tables H and I apply only when the existing or potential building has a full concrete slab-on-grade or a full concrete basement floor and walls; and
- 2) Institutional controls under Subpart J are required to use remediation objectives in Appendix B, Table H or Table I.
b) When the mode of contaminant transport is both diffusion and advection as described in Section 742.505 (i.e., any soil or groundwater contamination is located 5 feet or less, vertically or horizontally, from the existing or potential building or man-made pathway), the remediation objectives for soil gas or groundwater listed in Appendix B, Table H shall be used.
- 1) The first column to the right of the chemical name lists the soil gas remediation objectives for residential receptors.
- 2) The second column lists the soil gas remediation objectives for industrial/commercial receptors.
- 3) The third column lists the groundwater remediation objectives for residential receptors.
- 4) The fourth column lists the groundwater remediation objectives for industrial/commercial receptors.
c) Only when the mode of contaminant transport is diffusion only as described in Section 742.505 (i.e., all soil and groundwater contamination is located more than 5 feet, vertically and horizontally, from the existing or potential building or man-made pathway), the remediation objectives for soil gas and groundwater listed in Appendix B, Table I may be used.
- 1) The first column to the right of the chemical name lists the soil gas remediation objectives for residential receptors.
- 2) The second column lists the soil gas remediation objectives for industrial/commercial receptors.
- 3) The third column lists the groundwater remediation objectives for residential receptors.
- 4) The fourth column lists the groundwater remediation objectives for industrial/commercial receptors.
- d) If using Appendix B, Table H, compliance is determined by meeting either the soil gas remediation objectives or the groundwater remediation objectives.
- e) If using Appendix B, Table I, compliance is determined by meeting both the soil gas remediation objectives and the groundwater remediation objectives.
- f) For volatile chemicals not listed in Appendix B, Table H or I, a person may request site-specific remediation objectives from the Agency or propose site-specific remediation objectives in accordance with Subpart I, or both.
- g) As an alternative to using Appendix B, Table I pursuant to subsection (c), it is permissible to use Appendix B, Table H pursuant to subsection (b).
