ORDER OF THE BOARD (by T.E. Johnson):
On September 18, 2006, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) timely
filed an administrative citation against Dennis Ballinger (Ballinger) concerning a site located at
527 N. High Street in Paris, Edgar County. In an order of October 19, 2006, the Board accepted
Ballinger’s petition for hearing. Since then, the parties have participated in numerous status
conferences with the hearing officer, but the case has not been to hearing.
On March 20, 2008, the Agency filed a motion to voluntarily dismiss the administrative
citation. In the motion, the Agency states that “[a]dditional facts and circumstances discovered
since the filing of the Administrative Citation indicate that it is appropriate to withdraw this
Administrative Citation at this time.” Motion at 1. The Board grants the motion, dismisses the
case, and closes the docket.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
I, John Therriault, Assistant Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, certify that the
Board adopted the above order on April 3, 2008, by a vote of 4-0.
