PAPER CORP.,

Petitioner,

vs.

PCB 73—368

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTiON AGENCY,

Respondent.

ORDER OF THE BOARD (by Mr. Henss)

Petitioner

requests extension of a variance which

was

granted in

PCB

72-236.

The

variance granted

at

that time

was “an experiment to determine the adequacy

of the air

curtain destructor

as a substitute

for more expensive

incinerators

in the burning of clean

Wood

that does not

qualify as landscape waste”.

The current Petition

for

Extension of Variance contains very little

information

and must be supplemented with additional

data for our

understanding

of the benefits of this experiment.

Petitioner

is ordered to file a supplement or amendment to the petition

stating the quantity and type of materials which have been

and are to be burned and an estimate of the quantity and type

of contaminants discharged. We should also be informed of

the economic necessity for disposing of the material by

burning in an air curtain destructor rather than by other

means of disposal.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Mr. Odell abstains.

I, Christan L. Moffett, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control

Board, her by certify the above Order was adopted this (o’~’

day of

1973 by a vote of

~3
