State statutes establish rulemaking boards, which provide authority for each board to adopt rules to regulate various air pollution, solid and hazardous waste, or water pollution matters.
When adopting rules, the environmental rulemaking boards and the department must follow procedures set out in Indiana law in IC 4-22-2 and IC 13-14-9. These rulemaking procedures are different from the procedures that apply to other Indiana agencies.
The Air Pollution Control Board (APCB) is established under IC 13-17-2. State statutes provide authority for the APCB to adopt rules regarding various air pollution matters. For example, IC 13-17-3-4 provides that the board shall adopt rules necessary to the implementation of the Federal Clean Air Act as amended in 1990. More generally, IC 13-17-3-4 provides that the board shall adopt rules consistent with the legislature's intent to, for example, safeguard the air resource through the prevention, abatement, and control of air pollution by all practical and economically feasible means.
The board has twelve members, a technical secretary, and a legal counsel. The technical secretary and legal counsel are non-voting members of the board, and may not be state employees. There are four (4) ex officio representatives on the board, who represent other state agencies. The remaining eight (8) members are representatives of various constituencies, and are appointed by the governor. The procedure the board and the department must follow in adopting rules is also set out in statute, in IC 13-14-9.
