Section 2175.100  Summary and Purpose

As required by Section 5-15 of the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act (IAPA) [5 ILCS 100/5-15] and Section 140/4 of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) [5 ILCS 140/4], this Part specifies the administrative rules that apply to the Illinois Pollution Control Board (Board).  These rules generally explain what the Board is, how the Board is organized and operates, and how the public can get information from the Board.  These rules do not explain, the Board's procedural requirements for processing rulemakings, adjudicatory cases, and other proceedings.  Those procedural rules are found at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101-130.  If there is a conflict between the Board's procedural rules (35 Ill. Adm. Code 101-130) and this Part, the procedural rules will control.
