ORDER OF THE BOARD
(by J.
Theodore Meyer):
On July
19,
1991,
Dart
filed
a
petition
for
an
adjusted
standard to Section 218.980 of Subpart TT of the air rules.
On
August
6,
1991 the Agency moved for dismissal of the petition as
premature,
in that Section 218.980 was not in effect at the time
of the filing of the petition.
Dart responded on August 19, 1991,
asserting that the filing was made due to uncertainty
concerning
the inter—relation between these rules and federal rules.
Section 218.980 was accepted for filing by the Secretary of
State on August 16,
1991.
While the Board in the future will not
accept premature filings,
in this case the confusion expressed by
Dart adequately explains its action.
The Board denies the motion
to dismiss, but will grant the Agency’s alternative request.
The
Agency
is granted forty-five days from the date of this Order
in
which to file its response to the petition.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
I, Dorothy M. Gunn,
Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control
Board, hereby certify that the above Order was adopted on the
~‘&~
