PRELIMINARY BUSINESS

The minutes from the August 22, 2007 Council meeting were reviewed. On a motion by Mr. Gibson and a second by Mr. Kwon, the minutes were approved by a vote of 5-0.

  APPEAL OF CANCELLATION OF INSURANCE COVERAGE
  Mr. Eriksen noted there were nine (9) appeals to be heard regarding the cancellation of Fund issued pollution liability insurance coverage for program participants.
  1. Appeal of Administrator’s Denial to Waive Late Notice to Appeal Expiration of Insurance Coverage – Northshore Cleaners (Facility #0002494)
   

Mr. Ray Han is the drycleaner owner/operator of Northshore Cleaners located at 950 Northwestern Avenue in Lake Forest, IL. This facility had pollution liability insurance coverage with the Fund from June 22, 2000 until June 25, 2006, when the insurance cancelled for failure to meet underwriting requirements. On April 25, 2006, via certified mail, the Fund sent a Notice of Cancellation for failure to provide required CEU information to Mr. Han, which he signed for on April 27, 2006.

Mr. Han was short CEUs in 2005 but unfortunately, he had used his one-time CEU exception for calendar year 2004. On June 27, 2006, the Administrator sent Mr. Han a letter denying his request for reinstatement of his insurance coverage. The letter stated he could appeal the Administrator’s decision to the Council by submitting his request in writing within 60 days of the date of the letter.  Mr. Han did not respond to the June 27, 2006 letter until May 8, 2007, which was substantially outside the 60 day notice period.

Mr. Eriksen noted Mr. Han has two (2) appeal requests. The first is his appeal to the Council to waive the 60-day notice period and allow him to appeal cancellation of his insurance coverage to the Council. If the Council grants this request to waive the 60-day notice period, Mr. Han’s second appeal request is asking the Fund to provide him another waiver of the CEU requirement and reinstate his insurance policy back to June 25, 2006.

Mr. Han addressed the Council stating he had misplaced the Administrator’s letter of June 27, 2006 notifying him he had 60 days to appeal the Administrator’s denial of reinstatement of his insurance coverage. He later found the letter and subsequently appealed the Administrator’s decision on May 8, 2007.

After general discussion by the Council, on a motion by Mr. Bredenkamp and a second by Mr. Gibson, on a roll call vote, the Council voted 5-0 to deny Mr. Han’s request to waive the 60-day notice period and allow him to appeal cancellation of his insurance coverage to the Council.
 

Mr. Kim joined the meeting at 9:10 a.m.

  2. Appeal of Cancellation of Insurance Coverage–Fox Valley Cleaners (Facility #0002295)
   

Mr. Tae Jung is the drycleaner owner/operator of Fox Valley Cleaners located at 214 South 1st Street in St. Charles, IL. The facility had pollution liability insurance coverage from the Fund from June 29, 2000 through July 17, 2007 when it cancelled for failure to provide documentation the facility had a compliance program inspection in 2006.

For calendar year 2005, Mr. Jung failed to obtain the required four (4) compliance program continuing education credits (CEUs). This meant for 2006 he was required to make up the shortage of 2005 CEUs and obtain an annual site inspection. Mr. Jung failed to obtain a site inspection in 2006, which resulted in the cancellation of his insurance coverage as of July 17, 2007.

Mr. Jung is asking for a waiver of the site inspection requirement for 2006 and to have the Fund issued insurance policy reinstated back to July 17, 2007 and have the facility’s remedial program benefits restored.

Mr. Jung addressed the Council stating he had a misunderstanding regarding the required annual third party compliance inspection. He stated Mike Perkins of the Administrator’s office, did an inspection of his facility in 2006. He was under the understanding that this inspection would count the same as the required compliance program site inspection. Once he was aware this was not the case, he scheduled to have a site inspection of his facility, which was completed on June 30, 2007.

After discussion by the Council, on a motion by Mr. Bredenkamp and a second by Mr. Gibson, the Council, on a roll call vote, voted 6-0 to waive the compliance program site inspection requirement for this facility for calendar year 2006 and reinstate the insurance coverage back to July 17, 2007, along with restoration of the facility’s remedial program benefits.

  3. Appeal of Cancellation of Insurance Coverage–Key Club Cleaners (Facility #0001286)
   

Mr. Moon K Shin is the drycleaner owner/operator of Key Club Cleaners located at 3948 West Touhy Avenue in Lincolnwood, IL. The facility had pollution liability insurance coverage with the Fund from June 29, 2000 until July 16, 2007, when the insurance cancelled for failure to obtain a compliance program site inspection during calendar year 2006.

In 2005, Mr. Shin failed to get the required four (4) hours of compliance program continuing education credits necessary to maintain his insurance coverage with the Fund. He was offered a one-time exception to make up the two (2) hours of CEU credits which he did in 2006. He was then notified via certified mail that his facility was now subject to an annual compliance program inspection, which he failed to get in calendar year 2006.

Mr. Shin is asking for waiver of the annual compliance program site inspection for 2006 and have the Fund issued insurance policy reinstated back to July 16, 2007 and have the facility’s remedial program benefits restored.

Mr. Shin addressed the Council with the assistance of Andrew Lee, who translated for him. Mr. Shin stated for the past two (2) years he has considerable turmoil in his life. He understands he made a mistake by not having the site inspection done in 2006, but during the past two (2) years his son, who is stricken with cerebral palsy, had surgery which required him to take time away from his business and attend to his son’s medical problems. In addition, he injured his back to the extent he could not walk or move for a period of one (1) week. The Korean American Drycleaners Association (KADA) Compliance Program told him he did not need an inspection for 2006 as he had one for 2005. He reiterated it was his mistake that he did not have the compliance program site inspection completed but would like leniency from the Council and another chance to rectify his error.

The Council asked if his facility had been inspected in 2007. He stated it had, Mr. Sung Do Kang of NDI inspected his facility in July 2007. Mr. Kang noted that Mr. Shin attended a June CEU course where he received two (2) hours of continuing education.

After discussion by the Council, on a motion by Mr. Kim and a second by Mr. Kwon, on a roll call vote, the Council voted to reinstate Mr. Shin’s insurance coverage back to July 16, 2007 and restore the facility’s remedial program benefits. The motion passed by a vote of 5-1, with Mr. Gibson dissenting.
  4. Appeal of Expiration of Insurance Policy–Woodland Cleaners (Facility #0001624)
   

Mr. Jae Lim is the drycleaner owner/operator of Woodland Cleaners located at 233 East Irving Park Avenue in Streamwood, IL. The facility had pollution liability insurance coverage with the Fund from December 5, 2003 until December 16, 2006, when the insurance expired for failure to renew the insurance policy by completing the renewal application, submitting the required information and paying the first semi-annual insurance premium installment. Mr. Lim was notified via certified mail and a telephone call as to the need to renew the insurance coverage prior to the end of the 10 day Notice of Cancellation period. Thirteen days after the insurance coverage expired for non-renewal, the renewal application and premium were received by the Fund. Per a phone call from the Mrs. Richard Kim of ESM Compliance Program in January 2007, she informed the Fund the drycleaner had sent the renewal application and premium to the wrong address.

Mr. Lim is asking to have the Fund issued insurance policy reinstated back to December 16, 2006 without a lapse in coverage and have the remedial program benefits for the facility restored. Ms. Lim was in attendance at the Council meeting along with her attorney, Mr. Shin. Mr. Shin addressed the Council stating the initial check was dated December 5, 2007, which the Fund did not receive. Ms. Karla Kluver had notified Ms. Lim on December 20, 2006 that they had not received the check, with a subsequent investigation resulting in the determination by Ms. Lim the check and renewal application had been sent to the wrong address. Mr. Shin provided copies of the return envelope. Unfortunately, the Administrator was not able to determine who the envelope had initially been addressed to. Mr. Shin stated Ms. Lim had tried from December 20, 2006 until December 28, 2006 to contact Mr. Richard Kim of ESM to get assistance in tracking down the missing payment and application. Ms. Lim understands it was her mistake but is requesting the Council reinstate the insurance policy back to December 16, 2006 without a lapse in coverage and have the facility’s remedial program benefits reinstated.

After discussion by the Council, on a motion by Mr. Kwon and a second by Mr. Kwak, the Council voted 6-0, on a roll call vote, to reinstate the insurance policy back to December 16, 2006 without a lapse in coverage and have the remedial program benefits for the facility restored.
  5. Appeal of Cancellation of Insurance Policy–Woodridge Cleaners (Facility #0001736)
   

Mr. Sung Ho Hwang is the drycleaner owner/operator of Woodridge Cleaners located at 8272 Janes Avenue in Woodridge, IL. The facility had pollution liability insurance coverage with the Fund from May 18, 2000 until June 9, 2007, when the insurance cancelled for failure to license the facility for calendar year 2007. The Fund sent a Notice of Cancellation via certified mail along with a follow-up telephone call to Mr. Hwang, reminding him of the cancellation notice period.

On June 26, 2007, after his insurance had cancelled, a certified check for payment of the license late payment fees was received.

Mr. Hwang is asking to have the Fund issued insurance policy reinstated back to June 9, 2007 and have the facility’s remedial program benefits restored.

Ms. Hedi Kang translated for Mr. Hwang. Mr. Hwang stated that last year was a difficult year due to personal circumstances and a drop in the volume of drycleaning business. He was finally able to pay the license fee in the spring of 2007, but unfortunately could not pay the license late payment fees at the same time. He subsequently was able to accumulate enough funds to pay the license late payment penalty fees, which he did on June 26, 2007. Mr. Hwang is requesting the Fund reinstate his insurance policy back without a lapse in coverage and restore the facility’s remedial program benefits.

After discussion by the Council, on a motion by Mr. Kwak and a second by Mr. Bredenkamp, the Council, on a roll call vote, voted to reinstate Mr. Hwang’s insurance policy back to June 9, 2007 and have the facility’s remedial program benefits restored. The motion passed by a vote of 5-1, with Mr. Gibson dissenting.

  6. Appeal of Cancellation of Insurance Policy–Signature Cleaners (Facility #0001891)
   

Mr. Wook Hu is the drycleaner owner/operator of Signature Cleaners located at 144 North Randall Rd in Lake of the Hills, IL. The facility had pollution liability insurance coverage with the Fund from June 28, 2000 until January 8, 2007, when the insurance expired for failure to pay the second annual insurance premium installment. Mr. Eriksen noted a Cancellation Notice for non-payment of premium was sent to the facility, via certified mail. In addition, several telephone calls were placed to Mr. Hu regarding the 10-Day Cancellation Notice. A final telephone call was made on January 8, 2007, in which the Administrator’s staff was able to reach Mr. Hu. Mr. Hu is asking to have the Fund issued insurance policy reinstated back to January 8, 2007 and the remedial program benefits for the facility restored.

Mr. Hu addressed the Council stating the failure to pay the second annual insurance premium installment was his fault. He was out of the country during the period of time when the insurance cancelled and his brother was taking care of his business. Unfortunately, he did not explain to his brother that bills such as the insurance premium would be coming due during his absence. He is troubled about the cancellation and is asking the Council to reinstate the insurance policy back to January 8, 2007 and restore the remedial program benefits for the facility.

After general discussion by the Council, on a motion by Mr. Kwak and a second by Mr. Bredenkamp, the Council, on a roll call, voted 5-1 to reinstate insurance coverage and restore remedial program benefits. Mr. Gibson dissented.
  7. Appeal of Expiration of Insurance Policy–Brite Cleaners (Facility #0001677)
   

Mr. Choon Yu is the drycleaner owner/operator of Brite Cleaners located at 6000 West Fullerton Avenue in Chicago, IL. This facility had pollution liability insurance coverage with the Fund from June 13, 2000 until June 24, 2006, when the insurance coverage expired for failure to renew coverage and pay the first semi-annual insurance premium installment. Mr. Yu was notified via certified mail and a telephone call that his insurance was to renew by June 13, 2006 and if the insurance renewal application and premium were not received by June 24, 2006, the insurance would expire and the facility would lose remedial program benefits. The premium was not received and the insurance coverage cancelled. Subsequently, Mr. Yu, when notified the insurance coverage had cancelled, enclosed with his appeal letter copies of his bank statement and check stubs reflecting he had issued the insurance premium check prior to the cancellation date.

Mr. Yu addressed the Council with his son Gabriel Yu translating. Mr. Yu stated he had timely paid the insurance premiums in the past and stopped payment on the insurance premium check on September 28, 2006 when he became aware that it had not been cashed. He acknowledges he had made a mistake and a lapse in judgment in not following up more timely with the Fund to find out why the insurance premium check had not been cashed.

Mr. Bredenkamp expressed concern with the length of time that had occurred since the insurance was cancelled and his current appeal. Mr. Eriksen addressed the timeline stating that once Mr. Yu became aware of the cancellation of the insurance coverage, he had proceeded through the appeal process in a timely manner.

After general discussion, Mr. Gibson made a motion to deny reinstatement of the insurance coverage. The motion died for a lack of a second. It was noted Mr. Yu had obtained the necessary CEUs for 2006 and 2007. Mr. Kim made a motion to reinstate his insurance policy of June 24, 2006 and reinstate his remedial program eligibility for his facility provided the $2,100 insurance premium that is currently due is paid within the next 30 days. The motion was seconded by Mr. Bredenkamp, and on a roll call vote, passed by a vote of 5-1, with Mr. Gibson dissenting.

  8. Appeal of Cancellation of Insurance Policy–Northview Cleaners (Facility #0002543)
   

Mr. Chong Sul Kim is the drycleaner owner/operator of Northview Cleaners located at 2644 West Touhy in Chicago, IL. The facility had pollution liability insurance coverage with the Fund from December 15, 2003 through March 3, 2007, when the insurance cancelled for failure to provide the past 12 months of inspection and repair logs and required information on a new drycleaning machine that had been installed at the facility. Mr. Kim was notified via certified mail and a telephone call regarding the Cancellation Notice and the applicable due date.

Mr. Kim addressed the Council stating he was having health problems in November 2006 which resulted in subsequent surgery that kept him away from his business during the timeframe the insurance renewed and the information was requested. He admitted it was his fault but due to the surgery, he was not able to provide the appropriate attention to his business. Mr. Richard Kim of ESM Compliance Program spoke in support of Mr. Kim, stating that he also worked for the Post Office and had carpal tunnel syndrome which was corrected during surgery. He has recently sold his business because he could no longer physically handle the requirements of the drycleaning business due to his physical condition.

After general discussion by the Council, Mr. Gibson made a motion to deny reinstatement of the insurance coverage. The motion died for the lack of a second. Mr. Bredenkamp made a motion to reinstate the insurance coverage back to March 3, 2007. This motion died for lack of a second.

After additional discussion, Mr. Kim made a motion that was seconded by Mr. Kwak to table a decision on this appeal until the next Council meeting. The motion passed by a vote of 4-2 on a roll call vote, with Mr. Bredenkamp and Mr. Gibson voting in opposition to the motion.

  9. Appeal of Cancellation of Insurance Policy–Oakton Cleaners (Facility #0001411)
   

Mr. Jae Yun Lee is the drycleaner owner/operator of Oakton Cleaners located at 4100 West Oakton Street in Skokie, IL. The facility had pollution liability insurance coverage with the Fund from June 28, 2000 until September 5, 2006, when the insurance cancelled for failure to provide a current compliance program certificate for the facility. Mr. Lee was notified via certified mail and a telephone call informing him about the 60-day Cancellation Notice and the required information. The Administrator received a telephone call on June 20, 2007 from Ms. Woon Lee, daughter of the drycleaner owner/operator. She contacted the Administrator once she became aware through a conversation with her father that he had not received his insurance renewal application for 2007.

On June 23, 2007, the Fund received a compliance program certificate issued by the Asian-American Small Business Association (AASBA) compliance program. Mr. Lee is asking to have the Fund issued insurance policy reinstated back to September 5, 2006 and have the facility’s remedial program benefits restored.

Ms. Woon Lee was in attendance with Mr. Lee to translate. She reiterated her father did not understand the Cancellation Notice and did not realize the need to send a current compliance certificate to the Fund. He did not realize there were any problems. She stated her mother typically handles renewal forms and she did not have any record of receiving the renewal application to the AASBA Compliance Program. Ms. Lee represented that John Lee, administrator of the AASBA Compliance Program, had provided her father with conflicting information. He attended a CEU seminar sponsored by the AASBA in December 2006 and assumed everything was okay.

After general discussion by the Council, on a motion by Mr. Kwon and a second by Mr. Kwak, the Council, via a roll call vote, voted 5-1 to reinstate Mr. Lee’s insurance coverage back to September 5, 2006 and restore the facility’s remedial program benefits. Mr. Gibson dissented.

 

Mr. Lewicki recessed the meeting at 10:53 a.m. The meeting reconvened at 11:17 a.m

  OPERATIONAL ISSUES
  A. De-certification of Compliance Programs:
   

Mr. Eriksen noted the Council had directed the Administrator to contact the Enviro-clean Compliance Program, the AASBA Compliance Program and the Environmental Safety and Management (ESM) Compliance Program and inform them of the Council’s intent to decertify them as of September 21, 2007, unless they resolve the deficiencies noted in the draft audit report dated July 29, 2007 or provide sufficient information to the Council on why their compliance program should not be decertified.

Mr. Eriksen noted a representative from all three (3) programs is in attendance to address the Council.

1) Enviro-clean Compliance Program
Mr. Bu Myung Park president of the Korean American Drycleaners Association (KADA) who is currently administering the program, addressed the Council. Dr. Juho So assisted with the translation. Mr. Park stated he had met with the Administrator, Mr. Harry Cho (the previous administrator) and several other KADA officers almost two (2) years ago to talk about transition of the Enviro-clean program from Harry Cho to KADA. This was completed and he has been in charge of the oversight of this program for approximately two (2) years. He believes he has information on the 20 facilities where the Fund has questions. He reported his term as president of KADA will end in three (3) months and the goal is to transfer administration of the compliance program to a permanent staff. A permanent staff would provide continuity between a change in KADA officers.

Mr. Park noted it has been difficult to administer the compliance program due to a loss of compliance program members and staff turnover. He asked the Council to reconsider decertification and said KADA would provide the Council members with new rules for managing the compliance program by the first of the year.

The Council questioned Mr. Park about the proposed rules for administering the program. He replied the rules were being developed but had not been finalized. Mr. Gibson inquired if Ms. Mok was working for KADA. She was the KADA representative at the earlier audits during calendar year 2007. Mr. Park stated no, as Mr. Eriksen would not certify her as an inspector. Mr. Eriksen addressed the issue with the Council stating Ms. Mok was not certified as an inspector as she had not had sufficient training. After further discussion, Mr. Gibson made a motion to revoke the Council’s certification of the Enviro-clean Compliance Program. The motion was seconded by Mr. Bredenkamp. The motion failed on a roll call vote of 3-3, with Mr. Kim, Mr. Kwak and Mr. Kwan dissenting.

Mr. Gibson expressed his frustration with the Council members who voted in opposition to the motion. Mr. Kim stated he understands Mr. Gibson’s concerns but feels a new KADA president will fix the deficiencies and they need time to improve their program. Mr. Kwak felt they should give 30 days to see what KADA is going to do. He noted the Council had not looked at the information Mr. Park brought and the Council must review that information rather than make a decision.

Ms. Sue Kratz, representing the STAR Compliance Program and S&ECC Compliance Program stated the Council is making a mockery of the process based upon their vote. Mr. Kwak addressed Mr. Park and asked him if he was informed of the Council meeting in Peoria. Mr. Park stated he was and that Ms. Mok was to attend the meeting. Mr. Kwak informed Mr. Park that she did not attend the meeting and that proper notice had been given and did he have any information to resolve the audit discrepancies. Mr. Park stated he had the files with him.

The Council then reviewed several of the individual files Mr. Park provided. Upon review of the files, Mr. Bredenkamp made a motion to de-certify the Enviro-clean Compliance Program as they did not comply with the Council’s directive to resolve the deficiencies noted in the draft audit report dated July 29, 2007, but also did not provide sufficient information to the Council on why their program should not be de-certified. Mr. Gibson seconded the motion. On a roll call vote, the motion passed by a vote of  6-0.

2) Asian-American Small Business Association Compliance Program:
Mr. John Lee addressed the Council noting he believes they have resolved a majority of the discrepancies noted during the previous audit. He reported two (2) cleaners have closed their business and another facility has changed to a drop off store.

Mr. Eriksen and Dr. So took time and reviewed the documents on six (6) files provided by Mr. Lee. Mr. Eriksen reported based upon the review conducted by Dr. So and himself that the AASBA has satisfied most of the audit deficiencies.

On a motion by Mr. Kim and a second by Mr. Gibson, the Council, on a roll call vote of 6-0, voted to not de-certify the AASBA Compliance Program as they had resolved a majority of the audit deficiencies.

Mr. Bu Myung Park addressed the Council asking who would notify the Enviro-clean members the program had been decertified. Mr. Eriksen stated the Fund would conduct a mailing to all Enviro-clean members notifying them they need to enroll in a new compliance program by December 31, 2007.

3) Environmental Safety Management  Compliance Program:
Mr. Richard Kim provided documents related to deficiencies that were missing in the previous audit. It was noted he was still missing two (2) of the six (6) audit files. The other deficiencies were resolved based upon the documentation Mr. Kim provided to the Council.

Mr. Eriksen reiterated that Mr. Kim had missed the deadline of submitting the required information to the Fund in February 2007 and had not been available to answer questions from his compliance program members. Mr. Kim stated he had had business problems in the past year but those had been rectified and should not be a problem in the future.

After additional discussion by the Council, on a motion by Mr. Kim and a second by Mr. Kwak, the Council, on a roll call vote, voted 6-0 not to decertify the ESM Compliance Program.

  APPROVAL OF PROGRAM BILLINGS
 

Mr. Eriksen noted there were two (2) bills were before the Council for their review and approval.

  1. Williams & Company Consulting, Inc $40,978.00
Standard flat fee billing for August 2007, licensing, underwriting, claims processing and site inspections.
  2. John J. McCarthy $1,962.50
Professional legal services to the Council for the period of August 14, 2007 through September 11, 2007.
 

On a motion by Mr. Bredenkamp and a second by Mr. Kwon, the bills were approved by a vote of 6-0.

  REVIEW OF ACTIVITY REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 

Mr. Eriksen reviewed with the Council the monthly activity report for August 31, 2007, noting there were 1,253 licenses in effect; 699 facilities currently had Fund-issued pollution liability coverage; 530 remedial claims remained open with projected reserves of $40,200,000.

The August 31, 2007 financial statements reflected a Fund balance of $4,714,552. For the fiscal year, revenues exceeded expenses by $37,734.

  CLAIM PAYMENTS IN EXCESS OF $75,000
 

A. One Hour Cleaners, Decatur, Illinois (site #0001925)
Dr. Juho So reviewed with the Council a request for waiver of the three (3) bid requirement and approval of remedial action budget for One Hour Cleaners located in Decatur, IL. Dr. So reviewed background information with the Council noting this facility will most likely exceed the $300,000 remedial cap benefit. He noted as of today, $67,496.57 has been reimbursed for the activities incurred during site investigations, RAP preparation and review by the EPA. The remaining remedial benefit available from the Fund is $232,503.43. The expected additional remedial costs beyond the maximum remedial benefits from the Fund to address the contamination at the facility is $127,496.57. Dr. So noted no budgets would be approved until the claimant provides the Council with proof of ability to pay the cleanup costs in excess of the $300,000 maximum benefits, i.e., proof of financial ability to pay $127,496.57.

On a motion by Mr. Bredenkamp and a second by Mr. Kwon, the Council voted to waive the three (3) bid requirement for remediation by a vote of 6-0.

On a motion by Mr. Bredenkamp and a second by Mr. Gibson, the Council approved authorization of the remedial action budget up to the maximum available of $300,000. The motion passed by a vote of 6-0.

  OTHER ISSUES AS PRESENTED
 

Mr. Eriksen noted the next Council meeting is tentatively scheduled for Wednesday, October 31, 2007. In addition, Dr. So and he will be attending the annual State Coalition for Remediation of Drycleaners meeting next week in Portland, ME. He will provide an update at the next Council meeting.

There being no comments, on a motion by Mr. Bredenkamp and a second by Mr. Gibson, by a vote of 6-0, the Council meeting adjourned at 1:11 p.m.
