ORDER OF THE BOARD
(by R.C.
Flexaal):
On May 25,
1995,
LTV Steel Company
(LTV)
and the Illinois
Environmental Protection Agency (Agency)
filed a joint status
report.
The status report was due to be filed on or before May
10, 1995 pursuant to Board order of January
11,
1995.
LTV and Acme Steel Company filed a petition for an adjusted
standard from the General Use water quality standards for the
thermal discharges for their facilities on March 24,
1994, docket
AS 94—8.
Hearing was held on AS 94—8 on April
10,
1995.
The
Agency recommended that LTV be granted permanent relief and the
United States Environmental Protection Agency concurred.
LTV’s
and Acme Steel’s reply to post-hearing comments are due on May
30,
1995.
LTV asserts that if the adjusted standard in AS 94-8 is
granted,
it would eliminate the reason for this permit appeal.
LTV requests that this matter be stayed for as long as necessary
for the Board to reach its determination in AS 94-8.
An open
waiver was previously filed in this proceeding.
The Board grants the motion to stay and directs the parties
to file all future status reports with the hearing officer
beginning with the next joint status report due no later than
August 31, 1995 in the event that this matter has not already
been resolved and dismissed.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
