    Proposed Rule. Second Notice,
    OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by 3. Theodore Meyer):
    This matter is before the Board on Ainerock Corporation’s
    August 24, 1987 petition for site-specific rulemaking. Amerock
    seeks site—specific relief at its Rockford manufacturing facility
    from the effluent limitations for chromium (total and
    hexavalent), copper, zinc, cyanide, and total suspended solids
    (TSS). The general effluent limitations currently applicable to
    A!nerock are set forth at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 304.124(a). Ainerock
    asks that those concentration—based limitations be revised to
    mass-based limitations.
    On February 3, 1994, the Board proposed to grant Amerock’s
    request for site—specific relief, and proposed a rule for first
    notice. That proposal was published in the Illinois RecTister on
    February 18, 1994, at 18 Ill.Reg. 2560. The Board has not
    received any public comments during the first notice period.
    Therefore, we will proceed to second notice without making any
    non—substantive changes to the proposed rule.
    ORDER
    The Clerk is directed to submit the following proposed rule
    to the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR) for second
    notice:
