ORDER OF THE BOARD (by D. Satchell):
On December 3, 1980 Amax Coal Company (Amax) filed a
stipu-
lation and withdrawal of request for hearing in this
appeal of
conditions of NPDES
permit
No. 1L0060321 for the Leahy Mine
in
Perry County. In addition to a definite settlement of certain
issues, the stipulation contemplates a further permit application
involving a description of “good operating practices’t to be
utilized by Amax (Rule 605.1 of Chapter 4: Mine Related Pollu-
tion). This will be considered by the Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency (Agency) along with the remand. Amax asks
that the withdrawal be without prejudice to its right to contest
subsequent determinations
made in
issuance of the revised permit.
The Board construes the withdrawal of request for hearing as a
motion to dismiss. As such it is granted. The permit is remanded
to the Agency for further action consistent with the stipulation.
