On November 4, 1998, the Illinois Attorney General and Fischer Crane Company, 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

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 parties’ request for relief
and schedule a hearing.
