    Grigoleit requests
    the
    Board
    to

    matter
    and

    a
    status
    report
    on

    before
    February
    15,
    1993.
    In
    support
    of
    its request, Grigoleit states that it and the Agency continue to
    engage in settlement negotiations which would, if successful,
    culminate
    in the settlement of this
    case

    Claim

    Comoanv.
    Grigoleit
    adds
    that
    its
    written
    draft
    settlement
    was
    submitted
    to
    the
    Agency
    on
    December
    6,
    1992,
    and
    that
    the
    Agency
    provided
    its
    written response to Grigoleit’s proposal on
    January
    6,
    1993.
    Grigoleit
    states
    that
    it
    is
    preparing
    a
    reply
    to
    the
    Agency
    and
    that
    the
    parties
    are
    continuing
    their
    settlement
    negotiations
    to
    resolve
    all
    four
    -cases
    currently
    pending
    before
    the Board.
    We note that,
    in Grigoleit’s earlier
    status
    report
    of
    November
    16,
    1992,
    it stated that it believed that
    the
    appeal
    of
    PCB 89-184 before the Fourth District
    Appellate
    Court
    (No. 4—92—
    0029), would also be resolved; the Board requests clarification
    from
    Grigoleit as to whether
    this
    is still the situation.
    In
    light
    of
    the above, the Board grants Grigoleit’s motion
    to continue.
    Accordingly, the Board will reserve ruling on
    Grigoleit’s September
    3,
    1992
    motion for reconsideration that is
    currently pending in this case.
    The parties are directed to file
    0138-0393
    2
    status reports in this matter.
    In that the Board office will be
    closed on February 15, such status reports are to be received by
    the Board no later than February 16,
    1993.
    IT
    IS
    SO
    ORDERED.
