ORDER OF

THE BOARD

(by Mr~Goodman):

The

original Variance

Petition

in

this matter

was

fi1e~by

Koppers

Company,

Incorporated,

(Koppers), on September

5,

1975,

and a

similar Amended Petition

was filed November

12, 1975~

The

Petition

and its

Amendment both sought extension of variances

previously

granted to

Koppers for its Stickney~ Illinois, manufac-

turing

facility.

The

earlier Variances, PCB 73~365 (1973),

PCB 74~63

(1974), and PCB

74~325 (1975), granted relief from the

carbon

monoxide emission

limitations of Chapter

2:

Air Pollution,

Rule 206(c),

and from Chapter

2, Rule

103(5) (A)

(allowing certain

construction).

Since

the filing

of

the instant Variance,

the Board has con-

sidered

several

Petitions seeking

amendment of Rule

206, and in a

separate

Order has today

enacted several changes

to Rule 206

which

generally

conform to the Amended

Regulatory Petitions before

it.

See,

R75—9 et al.,

“Carbon Monoxide”

Since no enforcement

matters

appear to

be pending against Koppers for

its emissions of carbon

monoxide

prior to

today’s regulatory

action, we feel that the

in~-

stant

matter may be dismissed

without prejudice

as moot~

IT

IS

SO ORDERED~
