    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by G.T.
    Girard):
    On
    June
    15,
    1992,
    the
    parties
    filed
    a
    status
    report
    as
    directed by the Board’s order of April
    9,
    1992.
    The parties report
    that this matter
    is an appeal by Olin of the decision by IEPA to
    deny the incinerator portion of Olin’s application for a RCRA Part
    B Hazardous Waste Management Permit for Olin’s Main Plant facility
    in
    East
    Alton,
    Illinois.
    Pursuant
    to
    the
    negotiations,
    Olin
    conducted
    a
    trial
    burn
    of
    its
    hazardous
    waste
    incinerator
    on
    December 18,
    1991 and submitted a report of the results to IEPA on
    March 13, 1992.
    Both parties expect that any remaining issues will
    be
    resolved
    by
    mutual
    agreement,
    once
    information
    from
    the
    incinerator trial burn is analyzed by IEPA.
    When IEPA has reviewed
    the
    trial
    burn
    data,
    a
    draft
    permit
    will
    be
    issued
    for
    the
    incinerator.
    Both parties expect that this draft permit may be
    acceptable to Olin,
    leading to the issuance of a final permit and
    dismissal of this appeal.
    Based on this belief, the parties have
    not initiated discovery in connection with this matter.
    On May 15,
    1992, the parties held a joint conference call with
    the Hearing Examiner in this matter, but a final schedule for the
    resolution of the matter could not be determined because IEPA had
    not yet had
    sufficient
    time
    to
    review the
    trial
    burn
    results.
    Accordingly,
    the
    parties
    report
    that
    the
    status
    has
    remained
    unchanged since the May conference call.
    The parties are directed to file an updated status report on
    or before September 15,
    1992.
    The updated report shall contain an
    estimated date for the completion of this matter.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
