ORDER OF THE BOARD
(by J. Anderson):
On March 16,
1993,
The Grigoleit Company (Grigoleit)
filed a
joint status report in response to the Board’s February 25,
1993
order and a motion to continue.
In its February 25,
1993 order,
the Board directed the parties to file status reports with the
Board by March 16,
1993.
In its motion, Grigoleit requests the Board to continue this
matter and require the parties to file a status report on or
before May 3,
1993.
In support of its request, Grigoleit states
that it and the Agency have been engaged in settlement
negotiations which would,
if successful, culminate in the
settlement of this case as well as the following three cases:
PCB 90-135, The Gri~o1eitComDanv v. Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency PCB 91-157, People of the State of Illinois v.
The Gricioleit Company and PCB 92-23,
The Grigoleit Company v.
Illinois Environmental Protection A~ency.
Grigoleit adds that,
in addition to the settlement
discussions set forth in the parties’ February 16,
1993 status
report, the State has provided Grigoleit with written responses
to the settlement proposal on February 19 and 25,
1993,
and on
March 16,
1993.
On February 25,
1993,
Grigoleit replied to the
Agency’s February
19,
1993 response.
Because of difficulties in
coordinating schedules,
the parties have been unable to meet in
person to further their discussions.
The parties are now trying
to schedule such a meeting for the first week of April.
In light of the above, the Board grants Grigoleit’s motion
to continue.
The Board notes that this is the parties’
fourth
motion to continue this matter for the purpose of settlement
negotiations.
Accordingly, the Board cautions the parties that
it will not continue this matter indefinitely and that it expects
the parties to expeditiously pursue a resolution of this case.
The parties are directed to file status reports in this matter.
Such status reports are to be received by the Board no later than
May 3,
1993.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
