DISSENTING OPINION
(by J. Theodore Meyer):
I
dissent from the majority’s order granting the Illinois
Environmental Protection Agency’s
(Agency) motion
to file its
recommendation instanter.
The recommendation was due on
September
9,
1988,
and the motion
to file instanter was filed
on
October
13,
1988.
Given the pressure on the Board
to keep its
proceedings moving along
at
a reasonable pace,
I believe that
it
is
important to put those who practice before the Board
on notice
that deadlines must
be met
in all except exceptional
circumstances.
Thus,
I would have denied the motion
to file
instanter.
