affidavit, that the Agency is currently reviewing the requested

variance petition and discussion regarding the variance and a

possible adjusted standard are ongoing. The motion and affidavit

filing of the instant motion, and that petitioner has filed an open

waiver.

The motion is hereby granted. The Agency is directed to file

the recommendation within 30 days after the hearing officer has

entered an order scheduling a hearing. The Agency recommendation

shall be filed with the Board at least 40 days prior to the

scheduled hearing date unless the parties otherwise agree.
