    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by M. McFawn):
    On May 16,
    1994 Pekin Metro Landfill
    (Pekin)
    filed a motion
    for a 60-day extension of the briefing schedule in each of its
    two permit appeals, PCB 92-212 and PCB 93-1.
    In each case,
    the
    briefing schedule has been previously extended four times by
    Board orders of August 5,
    1993, September 23,
    1993, November
    18,
    1993, and February 3,
    1994.
    The instant requests were
    accompanied by 60—day waivers of the decision deadlines,
    i.e.
    until January 27,
    1995.
    The Illinois Environmental Protection
    Agency
    (Agency) has not filed a response.
    As grounds for the first three extensions,
    Pekin assured the
    Board that settlement negotiations were ongoing between Pekin,
    the intended purchaser of the landfill, the Agency, and the
    Office of the Attorney General.
    In its November 15,
    1993 motion,
    Pekin informed the Board that the parties had reached agreement
    on all substantive issues, but the Attorney General was still
    drafting the proposed consent order.
    In its January 13,
    1994
    motion,
    Pekin indicated that the parties had negotiated and
    agreed upon the language of the consent order and were awaiting
    final approval from the Office of the Attorney General.
    Pekin now states that the Attorney General’s Office has
    issued the final consent order, which was executed by Pekin on
    March 7,
    1994, and by Waste Professionals on April
    8,
    1994.
    The
    parties are now awaiting execution of the consent order by the
    Office of the Attorney General, and its entry in the Circuit
    Court of Tazewell County.
    Pursuant to the terms of the consent
    order,
    the parties will present to the Board a joint motion to
    dismiss within seven days of entry of the consent order.
    The motion for extension is granted.
    Petitioner’s closing
    brief is now due on or before July 11,
    1994.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
