ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J. Anderson):
This matter comes before the Board on a May 11, 1992 motion to
file the record instanter filed by the Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency (Agency). This petition was filed with the Board
on March 12, 1992, and the Agency asserts that it received notice
of the petition on March 11, 1992. Pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code
105.102 (a) (4), the Agency record is to be filed with the Pollution
Control Board within 14 days “upon notice of the petition”. The
record was therefore due to be filed on March 25, 1992. This
motion and the record were filed 68 days after the Agency received
notice of petitioner’s appeal, and are 54 days late. Additionally,
the record was filed only 10 days in advance of the scheduled May
21, 1992 hearing.
The Board is concerned about the significant delay in filing
this record. The Board also notes with concern the absence of any
earlier motion requesting an extension of time. Because the Act
requires the Board to consider the Agency record in making its
decision, the Agency’s motion to allow filing of the Agency record
instanter is hereby granted.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control
Board, hereby certify that the above order was adopted on the
