    This matter
    is before the Board pursuant to
    respondent’s motion filed on April 4,
    1996,
    to extend time to file its post-hearing brief.
    On May

    1994
    Dorothy
    L.
    Hoffman filed this
    citizen’s enforcement complaint before the Board against respondent,
    the City of Columbia.
    The complaint alleged that respondent violated 415 ILCS

    Environmental

    35

    Adm.
    Code 900.102.
    On June 2,
    1994
    the Board found this
    matter was
    not frivolous or duplicitous and sent it to
    hearing.
    Respondent
    states in
    its motion that new representation was
    recently obtained and that
    the parties agreed that each would have similar
    time to prepare their briefs.
    Additionally,
    respondent
    states that the complainant filed her briefon
    March 26 even though it was
    originally due Febmary
    29,
    1996.
    The respondent is requesting an additional sixty days to file
    its brief as the result of the above circumstances.
    On April 4,
    1996 the Board granted the complainant’s motions to extend time to file
    its
    brief and accepted the brief as
    timely filed on
    March 26,
    1996.
    Additionally we stated
    “Since
    the hearing officer originally provided
    the respondent six (6)
    weeks to
    file
    its brief,
    the
    respondent’s brief is now
    due May
    16,
    1996
    and complainant’s rebuttal
    brief is due May
    30,
    1996.”
    Respondent is requesting the Board
    to extend
    its
    time to file until June
    10,
    1996,
    sixty
    days beyond the original due date of April
    11,
    1996.
    The Board notes that no
    substitution of attorney or appearances have been filed
    in
    this
    matter as required pursuant to
    35 Ill.
    Adm.
    Code
    101.108 and
    35
    III Adm.
    Code 101.107(c).
    Additionally no withdrawal of appearance has been filed pursuant to
    35
    Ill.
    Adm.
    Code
    101.107(d).
    The
    Board directs respondent to
    file a substitution of attorney and appearance
    in
    accordance with Sections
    101.108
    and 101.107(c).
    2
    The Board grants respondent’s motion for extension of time and vacates
    that part of the
    April 4,
    1996 order in this matter.
    Therefore the respondent’s brief is now
    due June

    1996
    and complainant’s reply
    is now due June 24,
    1996.
