    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by M. McFawn):
    On July 8, 1998, the Illinois Attorney General and the Village of Carpentersville filed a
    stipulation and proposal for settlement. The motion was accompanied by a request for relief
    from the hearing requirement of Section 31(a)(2) of the Environmental Protection Act (Act)
    (415 ILCS 5/31(a)(2) (1996)). The Board directs the Clerk of the Board to cause publication
    of the required newspaper notice for the stipulation and proposal for settlement and request for
    relief from hearing concerning the complaint filed by the Illinois Attorney General on behalf
    of the people of the State of Illinois and at the request of the Illinois Environmental Protection
    Agency.
    Pursuant to Section 31(a)(2) of the Act, the parties may file with the Board a stipulation
    and proposal for settlement accompanied by a request for relief from the hearing requirement.
    Unless the Board determines that a hearing is needed, the Board is required to cause notice of
    the stipulation and proposal for settlement and request for relief. Any person may file a
    written demand for hearing within 21 days after receiving the notice. If a hearing is requested,
    the Board will accordingly deny the parties’ request for relief and schedule a hearing.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    Board Member Kathleen M. Hennessey abstained.
    I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, hereby certify that
    the above order was adopted on the 23rd day of July 1998 by a vote of 5-0.
