Section 259.210  General

 

An owner or operator of an agrichemical facility who elects to participate in the Agrichemical Facility Response Action Program shall use the criteria in this Subpart to determine if soil at an agrichemical facility contains agrichemicals at concentrations that represent a significant environmental risk that must be managed under hazardous waste regulations, has agrichemical concentrations of moderate concern that may be managed under more flexible regulations, or has agrichemical concentrations that are below regulatory concern.

                                                                                     

(Source:  Amended at 32 Ill. Reg. 1308, effective January 21, 2008)

 

Section 259.220  Pesticides

 

a)         If the pesticide concentrations in soil are equal to or greater than the remediation suitability determination levels in Appendix A of this Part, the soil is considered a high risk to cause an exceedence of a Class I or Class III groundwater quality standard or a health advisory level and is also considered to contain a hazardous constituent, subject to all applicable hazardous waste management requirements and restrictions (35 Ill. Adm. Code:  Subtitle G: Chapter I: Subchapter c), and not suitable for land application pursuant to 8 Ill. Adm. Code 258.

 

b)         Notwithstanding the requirements of subsection (a) of this Section, applicants may demonstrate that the contaminated soils may be safely land applied pursuant to 8 Ill. Adm. Code 258.150.

 

c)         If the pesticide concentrations in soil are less than the remediation suitability determination levels in Appendix A of this Part, but are equal to or greater than the default soil cleanup objectives in Appendix B, the soil is considered a moderate risk to cause an exceedence of a groundwater quality standard or a health advisory level, and a corrective action plan to remediate the past contamination may be submitted to the Department and the Board for review. The soil may be suitable for the land application treatment program pursuant to 8 Ill. Adm. Code 258.

 

d)         If the pesticide concentrations in soil are less than the default SCOs in Appendix B of this Part, the pesticide concentrations are considered below regulatory concern and the facility may apply for a notice of closure in accordance with Subpart E.

 

e)         If the pesticide concentrations are less than the remediation suitability determination levels in Appendix A, but equal to or greater than the default SCOs in Appendix B, the applicant may undertake a detailed site assessment as described in Section 259.340 to develop the information necessary to propose site-specific SCOs, using the equations in Section 259.350(a). All site-specific cleanup objectives are subject to Board approval.

 

f)         Pesticide concentrations in soils proposed to remain in place at the conclusion of corrective actions may not exceed the default SCOs in Appendix B, unless appropriate engineering barriers, in conjunction with necessary institutional controls, are approved as part of a corrective action plan.

 

g)         If soil samples at a facility contain pesticides for which default SCOs are not listed in Appendix B, the applicant shall consult with the Department to develop an appropriate SCO. 

 

h)         The default SCOs for pesticides for surface soils in Appendix B apply to the upper 12 inches of the soil and any soil/gravel mixture within 12 inches of land surface.  The subsurface SCOs for pesticides apply from 12 inches below land surface to 60 inches below land surface.

 

i)          Default surface SCOs for pesticides are calculated using the equations in Section 259.350(a) and an organic carbon content (foc) of 0.008.  The subsurface SCOs for pesticides are calculated using an foc of 0.002.  If pesticides are present in soil at depths greater than 60 inches below land surface, the applicant shall measure the foc of at least 2 soil samples representative of the interval between 60 inches and the maximum depth at which pesticides are present in each boring within the area of contaminated soil.  The variable foc may not be measured in soil samples with visible evidence of pesticide contamination. The measured foc shall be used in the equation in Section 259.350(a) to calculate the soil cleanup objective for contaminated soil below a depth of 60 inches.

Section 259.340  Detailed Assessment for Development of Site-Specific Soil Cleanup Objectives

 

The purpose of the detailed assessment for site-specific SCOs is to provide the information necessary for the calculation of site-specific SCOs based on the site physical properties. The detailed assessment is optional and is only required when an applicant proposes corrective actions based on site-specific SCOs, instead of reliance on the default SCOs of Appendix B and Appendix C of this Part.

 

a)         To determine site-specific physical soil and hydrogeologic parameters, a minimum of one boring per 0.5 acre of contaminated soil area shall be collected.  This boring shall be deep enough to allow the collection of the required field measurements.  The soil taken from the borings shall be visually inspected to ensure there are no significant differences in the stratigraphy.  If there are similar soil types, one boring may be used to determine the site-specific physical soil parameters.  If there are significant differences, all of the borings shall be evaluated before determining the site-specific soil parameters for the site.  The site-specific physical parameters shall be determined from the portion of the boring representing the stratigraphic units being evaluated.  In general, two samples from the boring shall be required:

 

1)         a sample of the predominant soil type in the unsaturated zone, and

 

2)         a sample of the predominant geologic unit in the saturated zone.

 

b)         Not all of the parameters identified in the equations in Section 259.350(a) of this Part shall be determined on a site-specific basis.  An applicant may collect partial site-specific information and use default values for the other parameters.  Applicants should consider measuring the organic carbon content in all soil samples that have been collected to analyze for pesticide concentrations because the product of the Equation in Section 259.350(a) of this Part is most sensitive to the organic carbon content.  The variable foc may not be measured in soils with visible evidence of pesticide contamination.

 

c)         A site-specific groundwater dilution factor (DF) (used in developing SCOs based upon the protection of groundwater) may be determined by substituting site information in the equation in Section 259.350(a)(1) of this Part.  A groundwater recharge rate (R in the equation in Section 259.350(a)(2) of this Part) less than 0.15 m/yr may not be used unless it is demonstrated through on-site testing of hydraulic properties that the saturated hydraulic conductivity of the geologic material in which a Class II groundwater occurs or of the geologic material overlying a Class I or III groundwater is smaller than 1 x 10-6 cm/sec. The mixing zone depth (d in the equation in Section 259.350(a)(2) of this Part) is the mean thickness of the geologic unit in which the Class I, II or III groundwater is present.  A mixing zone depth larger than 6.5 meters may not be used in calculating a site-specific dilution factor.

 

d)         In addition to the parameters in the equation in Section 259.350(a)(2) of this Part, the following information on hydrogeologic conditions beneath the site shall be determined:

 

1)         mean depth to water table,

 

2)         mean depth to uppermost Class I, Class II or Class III groundwater,

 

3)         mean thickness of uppermost  Class I, Class II or Class III groundwater, and

 

4)         groundwater flow direction.

 

e)         The applicant shall inform the Department of the schedule for conducting the final site assessment to allow representatives of the Department to conduct a site visit and observe assessment activities.

Notes:

a    Chemical Abstract Service (CAS)

b    USEPA Test Methods (SW-846)

*   Application Rate Equivalents (AREs) are based on USEPA-approved pesticide label rates for the specific pesticide active ingredient and conservative assumptions about soil properties. AREs only apply to the upper one foot of soil or soil/gravel mixture and are used as the SCO for the upper one foot of soil or soil/gravel mixture if the ARE is greater than the SCO value calculated using the Equation in Section 259.350(a) of this Part and less than the RSDL value.

 

The application rate equivalents can be determined using the equation below:

 

 

Where:

 

AREs

=

application rate equivalent (mg/kg)

Applicationrate

=

current label application rate (lb/acre) for coarse-textured, low organic matter content soils
