ORDER OF THE BOARD:
By order of April 13,
1995, pursuant to P.A. 88-690, the
Board granted Meyer Steel Drum,
Inc.
(Meyer)
an extension of time
through July 10,
1995 in which to file an appeal of a March
7,
1995 Agency permit determination.
On July 10,
1995, Meyer filed
a petition for permit review regarding its facility, located at
3201 West Millard,
Chicago, Cook County,
Illinois.
This matter
is accepted for hearing.
The hearing must be scheduled and completed in a timely
manner, consistent with Board practices and the applicable
statutory decision deadline,
or the decision deadline as extended
by a waiver (petitioner may file a waiver of the statutory
decision deadline pursuant to 35 Ill.
Adiu. Code 101.105).
The
Board will assign a hearing officer to conduct hearings
consistent with this order, and the Clerk of the Board shall
promptly issue appropriate directions to that assigned hearing
officer.
The assigned hearing officer shall inform the Clerk of the
Board of the time and location of the hearing at least 40 days in
advance of hearing so that public notice of hearing may be
published.
After hearing, the hearing officer shall submit an
exhibit list,
a statement regarding credibility of witnesses and
all actual exhibits to the Board within five days of the hearing.
Any briefing schedule shall provide for final filings as
expeditiously as possible and,
in time—limited cases, no later
than 30 days prior to the decision due date, which is the final
regularly scheduled Board meeting date on or before the statutory
or deferred decision deadline.
Absent any future waivers of the
decision deadline, the statutory decision deadline is now
November 7,
1995
(120 days from July 10,
1995); the Board meeting
immediately preceding the due date is scheduled for November 2,
1995.
If after appropriate consultation with the parties, the
parties fail to provide an acceptable hearing date or
if after an
attempt the hearing officer is unable to consult with the
2
parties,
the hearing officer shall unilaterally set a hearing
date in conformance with the schedule above.
The hearing officer
and the parties are encouraged to expedite this proceeding as
much as possible.
The Board notes that Board rules
(35 Ill. Adm.
Code 105.102) reauire the Agency to file the entire Agency record
of the permit application within 14 days of notice of the
petition.
This order will not appear in the Board’s opinion volumes.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
I, Dorothy M. Gunn,
Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control
