    ORDER
    OF THE BOARD
    (by
    J.
    C.
    Marlin):
    This matter is before the Board on Respondent Sure—Tan,
    Inc.’s
    (“Sure-Tan”) Motion to Reduce Penalty filed May
    13,
    1991.
    The motion “offers to settle this case for $1,000
    -
    in order that
    we may continue the operation of this company.”
    The motion also
    makes several arguments as to why the $10,000 penalty the Board
    imposed upon Sure-Tan in its April
    11,
    1991 Order is excessive.
    To the extent that the filing can be construed as a motion
    to reconsider the Board’s Order,
    it is denied.
    It raises no
    issue for the Board’s consideration that was not considered
    previously.
    Nor is any information regarding the Respondent’s
    financial resources,
    other than Respondent’s assertion, contained
    in this record.
    To the extent that the filing seeks to “settle”
    the matter with the Board the movant misunderstànds the Board’s
    role.
    The Board’s role is not as a party to any
    settlement
    negotiations but as the adjudicator of the case brought before it
    by the People of the State of Illinois,
    as represented by the
    Illinois Attorney General, against Sure—Tan,
    Inc.
    Therefore,
    the
    motion to reduce penalty is denied.
    The time for payment of
    penalty, set forth in our April 11,
    1991 Order, begins as of
    today’s date.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    J. Theodore Meyer concurred.
    I, Dorothy N. Gunn,
    Clerk of the
    Illinois Pollution Control
    Board, hereby certify that the
    bove Order was adopted on the
    day of _________________________,
    1991 by a vote
    of
    7-
    .
