    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by K.M. Hennessey):
    On April 2, 1997, KWP Partnership filed a petition for review of an Office of the State
    Fire Marshal (OSFM) final determination regarding eligibility for reimbursement from the
    Underground Storage Tank Fund (UST Fund). The OSFM made a final decision in its letter of
    March 11, 1997, denying eligibility to receive reimbursement from the UST Fund and stating
    the reasons therefor. The final determination concerns KWP Partnership’s
     
    site located at 1510
    West Fayette, Effingham
    ,
    Effingham County, Illinois. This matter is accepted for hearing.
    The hearing must be scheduled and completed in a timely manner. The Board will
    assign a hearing officer to conduct hearings consistent with this order, and the Clerk of the
    Board shall promptly issue appropriate directions to that assigned hearing officer.
    The assigned hearing officer shall inform the Clerk of the Board of the time and
    location of the hearing at least 30 days in advance of the hearing so that a 21 day public notice
    of hearing may be published. After hearing, the hearing officer shall submit an exhibit list, a
    statement regarding credibility of witnesses and all actual exhibits to the Board within 5 days
    of the hearing.
    If after appropriate consultation with the parties, the parties fail to provide an
    acceptable hearing date or if after an attempt the hearing officer is unable to consult with the
    parties, the hearing officer shall unilaterally set a hearing date in conformance with the
    schedule above. The hearing officer and the parties are encouraged to expedite this proceeding
    as much as possible.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
