    Opinion
    E Order of
    the Board
    (by Mr.
    Currie):
    Petitioner seeks
    a variance to allow new sewer connections
    to treatment plants in the North Shore Sanitary District despite
    the sewer ban imposed in League of Women Voters v.
    NSSD,
    #70-7
    (March
    31,
    1971).
    In #71-343, NSSD
    v.
    EPA
    (as revised March
    2,
    1972), we have
    granted the District
    a blanket variance on the basis of treatment
    plant improvements that allows up
    to 5000 new connections to be
    made at Clavey Road and at Waukegan,
    to which plants the sewers
    in the present cases are allegedly tributary.
    The petitioners
    are free to apply
    to the District for permits under that decision.
    In
    the
    absence of a showing that such applications have been
    made and denied the present petitions are moot and are there-
    fore dismissed.
    Chesterfield Development Corp.
    v.
    EPA,
    #71-378
    (March 2,
    1972).
    I, Christan Moffett, Clerk of the Pollution Control Board, certify
    that the Board adopted the above Opinion
    &
    Order this
    25th day
    of
    April
