ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J.D. Dumelle):

This matter comes before the Board upon a September 11, 1985

petition for variance filed on behalf of Oasis Outdoor Ltd.

(Oasis). That petition is deficient in several respects. First,

the apparent waiver of hearing on page seven is unclear. Hearing

should be unconditionally waived or requested (although upon the

filing of a negative recommendation by the Illinios Environmental

Protection Agency, Oasis could reassert its right to a

hearing). Second, there is no data presented regarding current

discharge levels of the various pollutants from which variance is

requested. Third, on page three of the petition, variance is

requested for one year, while on page six Oasis alleges that

compliance will require more than one year. Fourth, there is

little or no discussion of the environmental impact of granting

variance.

Unless an amended petition is filed within 45 days of the

date of this Order curing the above—noted defects, this petition

will be subject to dismissal.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control

Board, hereby certify that t e above Order was adopted on
