ORDER OF THE BOARD
(by
E.
Dunham):
On November
20,
1995, Sherex Chemical
Co.
(Sherex)
filed a
status report pursuant to a Board order.
Sherex also filed a
waiver of the decision deadline through and including April
21,
1996.
The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
(Agency)
has
not filed
a status
report in this matter
as
directed by the
Board’s order.
This permit appeal was filed on October 24,
1991.
In
a June
16,
1994 letter to the Agency, Sherex withdrew the RCRA Part B
application.
Sherex indicates that the Agency has requested
additional information
to support the withdrawal.
Sherex
provided documentation to the Agency in April and September of
1995 but has not received
a reply from the Agency.
Sherex
indicates that it will withdraw its appeal upon successful
withdrawal
of the RCRA Part B application.
Absent an additional waiver,
the Board must decide this
matter based on the record at its April
18, 1996 meeting.
The
Board orders the parties to file status reports or
a joint status
report with the Board on or before March
25,
1996.
The Board notes that the Agency has not filed any status
report in this matter since the substitution of appearance in
1992.
Continued failure of the Agency to apprise the Board of
their status in this matter, whether individually or by joint
status report, will subject the Agency to sanctions.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Board Member J. Theodore Meyer dissented.
