(“AZR”)1 respectfully submits the following comments on the City of Chicago Department of Public Health’s (the “Department”) proposed April 18, 2018 amendments (the “Amendments”) to the Rules and Regulations for Control of Emissions from the Handling and Storage of Bulk Solid Materials (the “BSM Rules”). The Amendments primarily address additional requirements relating to the defined term of “Manganese-Bearing Materials.” AZR has invested approximately $2 million to comply with the existing BSM Rules. The Amendments threaten to impose even more costs upon AZR without justification considering that AZR’s operations do not contribute to the public health risks which the Amendments are intended to address. AZR has been a good neighbor within its community. It has not caused fugitive dust problems. It has not created threats to the public health due to manganese or any other toxic substances. What it does do is provide good jobs to its employees and provides an environmentally beneficial operation that uses waste material which would otherwise go to a landfill and turns that material into useful products. AZR appreciates that at other locations within the City of Chicago, there have been developments that warranted regulating certain businesses to address identified problems that presented a risk to the public health or environment.

The Gansu Delegation is a group of government officials and engineers who are involved in energy and pollution programs in their province. The purpose of their trip was to learn more about how the U. S. government and other organizations deal with energy and pollution issues. The visit was coordinated by the 21st Century Institute in Chicago, which is a non-profit organization that promotes exchange programs between China and U. S. in the areas of culture, business, environment and education. Board Member Lin, Attorney Assistant Marie Tipsord, and I hosted the group for a seminar at our offices in Springfield. We spent several hours describing the responsibilities, goals, and organization of the Board, including specific examples of our regulatory and adjudicatory actions. The Gansu Delegation asked numerous questions; and was particularly interested in the interactions among the various Illinois agencies with environmental responsibilities, as well as our relationship to federal authorities. We were greatly honored to have such wonderful guests. In February, the Board also held hearings in three ongoing rulemakings.

  • Ie U.S. Copper-Base Scrap Industry and Its By-Products
    ie U.S. Copper-base Scrap Industry And Its By-products Ai Cveiview Eleventh Edition January 2011 Copper Development Association Inc. 260 Madison Avenue New York, NY 10016 (212) 251-7200 www.copper.org Janice L. Jolly Dayton, Maryland EEFACE The purpose of this report is to provide a brief background on the U.S. copper and copper alloy secondary processing industry. It is felt that policy and decision-makers can use a ready reference on an industry that is generally so little understood. The industry has undergone many changes over the past few decades and has been in decline over much of the last ten years.. While the coverage is not comprehensive, a brief mention is made of the many problems impacting the health of the industry. The secondary industry and the Government agencies most concerned with legislation affecting the collection, processing and markets for scrap are both working to overcome some of the current difficulties. Nevertheless, for some sectors of the secondary copper industry, the past ten years have been particularly difficult, given the restrictions within which they have operated, the potential for new restrictions, and the current copper market. The author would particularly like to thank those in the industry who were kind enough to host informative visits to their plants and to provide much of the information contained in this report. In particular, Alan Silber of RECAP, who was of tremendous help in outlining the original report. Daniel Edelstein, Copper Specialist with the U.S. Geological Survey, also provided substantial help and advice. The International Copper Study Group, was of great assistance in providing world copper industry statistics.

  • Npl Site Listing Narrative
    OSWER/OSRTI Washington, DC 20460 NATIONAL PRIORITIES LIST (NPL) ***Final Site*** March 2010 CHEMETCO Madison County, Illinois Site Location: Chemetco is located approximately two miles south of the Village of Hartford, Madison County, Illinois. Site History: Chemetco was a former secondary copper smelter operation which operated from 1969 to 2001. The former smelter property occupied more than 230 acres of land, but operated on 41 acres located near the smelter operations. Chemetco’s major function was recycling or secondary processing of copper-bearing scrap and manufacturing residues. This process produced waste byproducts such as slag, zinc oxide (scrubber sludge), and spent refractory brick. On October 31, 2001, the facility was shut down, and filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy on November 13, 2001. On December 7, 2001 the Illinois EPA issued an order to seal Chemetco. Site Contamination/Contaminants: Approximately 452,254 cubic yards of waste slag material have been stockpiled on the northeast corner of the facility property. Approximately 62,204 cubic yards of zinc oxide (scrubber sludge) has been identified as being located in five separate areas on the Chemetco property, including a 2.5 acre concrete bunker located at the north end of the facility. Elevated levels of cadmium, copper and lead have been found in the waste slag material and the zinc oxide. Potential Impacts on Surrounding Community/Environment: Elevated levels of cadmium, copper and lead have been found in the sediments collected from the wetlands and Long Lake downstream of Chemetco. Response Activities (to date): Chemetco fenced the 41 acres near the smelter operations to secure the site.
