    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by J. Anderson):
    On November
    16,
    1992, The Grigoleit Company (Grigoleit)
    filed a response to the Board’s October 29,
    1992 order in this
    matter and a motion to continue.
    In its October 29,
    1992 order,
    the Board directed the parties to file status reports with the
    Board by November 16,
    1992.
    On that same date,
    Roy M. Harsch
    filed his appearance on behalf of Grigoleit.
    In its response, Grigoleit requests the Board to continue
    this matter and require the parties to file a status report on or
    before January 15,
    1993.
    In support of its request, Grigoleit
    states that it and the Agency continue to engage in settlement
    negotiations which would,
    if successful,
    culminate in the
    settlement of this case as well as the following three cases:
    PCB 91-157,
    People of the State of Illinois
    v. The Grigoleit
    Company
    PCB 92—23, The Grigoleit Company v.
    Illinois
    Environmental Protection Agency
    and PCB 92-110,
    In the Matter of
    Trade Secret Claim by The Grigoleit Com~anv. Grigoleit adds that
    an initial draft settlement from the Attorney General has given
    rise to the identification of conflicts between Grigoleit and
    certain other clients represented by Grigoleit’s attorneys.
    As a
    result, Grigoleit found it necessary to retain new counsel to
    assist in the negotiations.
    Grigoleit adds that it anticipates
    being in a position to respond in writing to the initial draft
    settlement as soon as its new counsel has become familiarized
    with all of the cases.
    Finally, Grigoleit states that it
    believes that an economic settlement is possible and that the
    four cases currently pending before the Board,
    as well the appeal
    of PCB 89-184 before the Fourth District Appellate Court
    (No.
    4-
    92—0029), will be resolved.
    In light of the above, the Board grants Grigoleit’s motion
    to continue.
    Accordingly, the Board will reserve ruling on
    Grigoleit’s September
    3,
    1992 motion for reconsideration that is
    currently pending in this case.
    The parties are directed to file
    status reports in this matter.
    Such status reports are to be
    0137-0
    135

    2
    received by the Board no later than January 15,
    1993.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
