    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J. Theodore Meyer):
    This matter is before the Board on respondents Neil and
    Janet Ostro’s June 17, 1992 motion for extension of time in which
    to answer. The Ostros ask for an additional thirty days “from
    the date the answer in this matter is due, in which to conduct a
    thorough investigation prior to filing a responsive pleading.”
    (Motion at 1.) The motion states that counsel for complainant
    Lake County Forest Preserve District has agreed to a thirty day
    extension.
    The Board grants the motion for extension of time in part,
    until July 7, 1992. The Board’s procedures state that a
    respondent shall file any claim that a complaint is frivolous or
    duplicitous within 14 days of service of the complaint, or shall
    file any motion to dismiss within 14 days of service of the
    complaint. (35 Ill.Adm.Code 103.124, 103.140(a); Duplicitous or
    Frivolous Determination (June 8, 1989), RES 89-2.) The Ostros
    are granted an extension of time to 14 days from the date of this
    order. Any filing the Ostros may choose to make shall be
    received at the Board’s Chicago office by July 7, 1992.
    Finally, the Board notes that the Ostros filed a waiver of
    any deadline for final Board action in this matter. The Board
    points out that there is no decision deadline in enforcement
    cases.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
