ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J. Yi):
This matter is before the Board pursuant to an Illinois Environmental Protection
Agency (Agency) motion for an extension of time to file the Agency Record. Oscar Mayer
Foods Corporation (Petitioner) filed this appeal of the Agency’s underground storage tank
reimbursement decision on January 24, 1996. The Agency requests the Board to grant an
extension of the 14 day period of filing the Agency Record to any other date not less than 21
days from the date of the scheduled public hearing, if a hearing is scheduled.
The Agency states that no prejudice will result in granting the extension, as the
petitioner is already in possession of the majority of documents which would constitute the
Record. Additionally, the Agency states that the parties are engaged in negotiations and would
be willing to submit status reports concerning the progress of the matter. No hearing has been
scheduled and petitioner has filed a waiver of the statutory decision deadline.
The Board grants the Agency’s motion for an extension of time. The Agency Record is
now due 30 days prior to the date of a scheduled hearing in this matter. The Hearing Officer
assigned to this matter when scheduling a hearing, in the same order, shall also establish the
filing date of the Agency Record consistent with this order.
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 _____ day of ___________, 1996, by a vote of
______________.
