The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds that: A. Section 2.019 of the Eugene Code, 1971, authorizes the City Manager to adopt rules for the administration and implementation of any provisions of that Code. Section 3.696 of that Code specifically authorizes the City Manager, after obtaining advice from the Toxics Board, to adopt an administrative rule that adds chemicals to, or removes chemicals from, the list of substances required to be reported under Section 54 (Amendment IV) of the Eugene Charter of 2002 ("the Amendment"). Section 3.696 also authorizes the City Manager to establish reporting and materials balancing thresholds for added chemicals, and to establish a date when the additional chemicals shall be subject to the reporting and materials accounting requirements. B. On December 20, 2000, I issued Administrative Order No. 52-00-04-F adopting Hazardous Substances Reporting Requirements Administrative Rule R-3.696. That Rule added chemicals to the list of substances required to be reported under the Amendment, established reporting thresholds and material accounting thresholds for each chemical added, and changed previously established reporting thresholds and material accounting thresholds for certain chemicals already subject to the reporting requirements. C. On October 28, 2013, I issued Administrative Order No. 52-13-01-F which amended Administrative Rule R-3.696 to add reportable chemicals to the list of chemicals required to be reported under the Amendment. D. The Toxics Board has recommended adding chemicals to, and removing chemicals from, the list of reportable chemicals so that the City's list would be consistent Federal and State law; and in order to add characteristic chemicals that have been identified by reporting businesses. E. I concur with the Toxics Board's recommended modifications of the reportable chemicals. Therefore, on September 21, 2017, Administrative Order 52-17-04 was issued proposing to amend Administrative Rule R-3.696 by adding chemicals to, and removing chemicals from, the list of reportable chemicals. F. Notice of the proposed amendment was given by making copies of the Notice attached as Exhibit A to Administrative Order 52-17-04 available to the Mayor and City Councilors, to any person who had requested such notice, and by publication of the Notice in the Register Guard Newspaper on October 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, 2017. The Notice provided that comments Administrative Order - Page 1 of 3 or objections to the proposed amendments must be submitted within 15 days of the first date of publication of the Notice. No comments were received within the time or in the manner described in the Notice. Based on the above findings, and the authority of Sections 2.019 and 3.696 of the Eugene Code, 1971, I order that Administrative Rule R-3.696 is amended as follows: 1.
