    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
    On February 8, 1994, Central Illinois Public Service Company
    (“CIPS”) filed a petition for NPDES permit review regarding the
    Coffeen Power Station, located in Montgomery County, Illinois.
    This matter is accepted for hearing.
    The hearing must be scheduled and completed in a timely
    manner, consistent with Board practices and the applicable
    statutory decision deadline, or the decision deadline as extended
    by a waiver (petitioner may file a waiver of the statutory
    decision deadline pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 101.105). The
    Chief Hearing Officer shall assign a hearing officer to conduct
    hearings. The Clerk of the Board shall promptly issue appropriate
    directions to the assigned hearing officer consistent with this
    order.
    The assigned hearing officer shall inform the Clerk of the
    Board of the time and location of the hearing at least 40 days in
    advance of hearing so that public notice of hearing may be
    published. After hearing, the hearing officer shall submit an
    exhibit list, a statement regarding credibility of witnesses and
    all actual exhibits to the Board within five days of the hearing.
    Any briefing schedule shall provide for final filings as
    expeditiously as possible and, in time-limited cases, no later
    than 30 days prior to the decision due date, which is the final
    regularly scheduled Board meeting date on or before the statutory
    or deferred decision deadline. In this case, the statutory
    decision deadline is June 8, 1994; therefore the decision due date
    is June 2, 1994.
    If after appropriate consultation with the parties, the
    parties fail to provide an acceptable hearing date or if after an
    attempt the hearing officer is unable to consult with the parties,
    the hearing officer shall unilaterally set a hearing date in
    conformance with the schedule above. The hearing officer and the
    parties are encouraged to expedite this proceeding as much as
    possible. The Board notes that Board rules (35 Ill. Adin. Code

    2
    105.102) reauire the Agency to file the entire Agency record of the
    permit application within 14 days of notice of the petition.
    This order will not appear in the Board’s opinion volumes.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    I, Dorothy N. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control
    Board, hereby c rtify that the above order was adopte~on the
