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

This matter comes before the Board upon receipt of an Agency

Recommendation dated October 5, 1988. The recommendation refers

to a request from Petitioner, MAECORP Incorporated, for a 30 day

provisional variance from the 90—day on—site limitations for

hazardous wastes set forth at 35 Ii.. Mm. Code 722.134(b).

Upon receipt of the request the Agency issued its

recommendation, concluding that the hazardous wastes must remain

on—site for longer than 90 days due to unforeseen, temporary and

uncontrollable circumstances and failure to grant the requested

30—day provisional variance would impose an arbitrary or

unreasonable hardship on Petitioner.

The Board concurs with the Agency Recommendation; Petitioner

is granted a provisional variance from 35 Ill. Mm. Code

722.134(b) from September 19, 1988 until October 19, 1988.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
