ORDER OF THE BOARD

(by Mr.

Duinelle):

On February 26, 1979 Petitioner requested a variance from

Rule 203(b)

of the Board’s Air Pollution Control Regulations.

The Petition is insufficient

in two respects.

First, it does

not specifically waive or request a hearing as required by

Procedural Rule 401(b).

Second,

the Petition is signed by an

attorney whose address

is listed as St. Louis, Missouri.

No

motion for appearance by a foreign attorney was filed as required

by Procedural Rule 106 (b), nor was the Board advised that this

attorney is

licensed to practice in Illinois.

If these inadequa-

cies are not corrected within 45 days of the date of this Order,

this matter will be subject

to dismissal.

The statutory

90 day

decision period shall run from the date an Amended Petition

is

filed.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

I, Christan L. Moffett, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution

Control Board, hereby certify the above Order was adopted on
