regarding its Pekin

This

The

hearing must

be

scheduled

and

completed

a

timely

manner,

consistent

applicable

The

Chief Hearing Officer

shall assign

a hearing officer to conduct

hearings.

The Clerk of the Board shall promptly issue appropriate

directions

to the assigned hearing officer consistent with this

order.

The assigned hearing officer shall

inform the Clerk

of the

Board of the time and location of the hearing at least 40 days in

of

hearing

notice

of

hearing

may

be

After hearing,

the hearing

shall

an

exhibit list,

a statement regarding credibility of witnesses and

all actual exhibits to the Board within five days of the hearing.

Any

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.

In

this

case,

the

statutory

decision deadline

is August

date is July 21,

1994.

If

after

with

the

if after an

attempt the hearing officer is unable to consult with the 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
