Section 211.970  Certified Investigation

"Certified investigation" means a report signed by Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) personnel certifying whether a grain-handling operation (or portion thereof) or grain-drying operation is causing or tending to cause air pollution.  Such report must describe the signatory's investigation, including a summary of those facts on which the signatory relies to certify whether the grain-handling or grain-drying operation is causing or threatening or allowing the discharge or emission of any contaminant into the environment so as to cause or tend to cause air pollution in Illinois, either alone or in combination with contaminants from other sources, or so as to violate regulations or standards adopted by the Pollution Control Board (Board) under the Environmental Protection Act (Act).  The certified investigation shall be open to a reasonable public inspection and may be copied upon payment of the actual cost of reproducing the original.
