R 89-8
DEFINITION OF VOM
)
ORDER OF THE
BOARD
(by J. Anderson):
On August 10, 1989, the Illinois Environmental Protection
Agency (“Agency”) moved the Board to hold a public hearing in
this matter. The Agency, in consultation with the USEPA, stated
that a hearing is required because the rule would constitute a
revision to the State Implementation Plan for Ozone; the Agency
refers the Board to Section 110(a) of the Clean Air Act (42
U.S.C.A. par. 7401 et seq. (1983)) and 40 CFR 51.102 and 51.104
(1988).
The Board appreciates the Agency’s information and denies
the Agency’s motion only because it is moot; the Board has
already scheduled a hearing to be held on September 26, 1989.
We also note that the enabling legislation, H.B. 1688, was
signed by the Governor on August 30, 1989 (P.A. 86—0366).
Therefore, the Agency’s alternate motion to dismiss these
proceedings if S.B. 1688 is not signed is also denied.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
