    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by R.C. Flemal):
    On August 19, 1998, the Illinois Attorney General filed a stipulation and proposal for
    settlement, accompanied by a motion requesting relief from the hearing requirement of Section
    31(c)(1) of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/31(c)(1) (1996)). The Board
    directs the Clerk of the Board to cause publication of the required newspaper notice for the
    stipulation and proposal for settlement and request for relief from hearing concerning the
    complaint filed by the Illinois Attorney General on behalf of the People of the State of Illinois
    and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency.
    Pursuant to Section 31(c)(2) of the Act (415 ILCS 5/31(c)(2) (1996)), the parties may
    file with the Board a stipulation and proposal for settlement accompanied by a request for
    relief from the hearing requirement. Unless the Board determines that a hearing is needed, the
    Board is required to cause notice of the stipulation and proposal for settlement and request for
    relief. Any person may file a written demand for hearing within 21 days after receiving the
    notice. If a hearing is requested, the Board will accordingly deny the request for relief and
    schedule a hearing.
    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 3rd day of September 1998 by a vote of 7-0.
