    OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by J.D. Dumelle):
    This provisional variance request comes before the Board
    upon
    an April
    29, 1987 recommendation of the Illinois
    Environmental Protection Agency (Agency).
    The Agency recommends
    that
    a thirty
    (30) day provisional variance be granted
    to Olin
    Hunt Specialty Products,
    Inc.
    (Olin Hunt),
    pursuant to 35 Ill.
    Adm. Code 722.134(b)
    to allow Olin Hunt to store twenty—five
    (25)
    drums of hazardous waste on—site after expiration of its ninety
    (90) day storage limit on April
    15,
    1987.
    After investigation of Olin Hunt’s request,
    the Agency
    concluded that the
    twenty—five
    (25) drums of hazardous waste must
    remain on—site for longer than the ninety
    (90) days due to
    unforeseen,
    temporary, and uncontrollable circumstances and that
    compliance with the accumulation time requirements of
    35 Ill.
    Adm. Code 722.134 would impose
    an arbitrary or unreasonable
    hardship.
    The Agency recommends that the provisional variance be
    granted from April
    15, 1987
    to May 15,
    1987.
    Pursuant to Section 35(b)
    of the Act,
    the Board hereby
    grants the provisional variance as
    recommended.
    This Opinion
    constitutes
    the Board’s findings of fact and conclusions of law
    in this matter.
    ORDER
    Olin Hunt Specialty Products, Inc.,
    is hereby granted
    a
    provisional variance pursuant to
    35 Ill.
    Adm. Code 722.134(b)
    to
    store twenty—five
    (25) drums of hazardous waste from April
    15,
    1987
    to May
    15, 1987.
    IT
    IS SO ORDERED.
