    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J. Yi):
    This matter is before the Board on a complaint filed June 28, 1996, by Edward M.
    Pearl, against Bicoastal Corporation, Singer Corporation, Controls Corporation of America
    Profit Sharing and Retirement Trust, and Eaton Corporation. The complaint alleges that the
    respondents individually or collectively violated Sections 21(a), 21(d)(2), 21(e), and 21(f)(1) of
    the Environmental Protection Act (Act). (415 ILCS 5/21(a), 5/21(d)(2), 5/21(e) and
    5/21(f)(1).) On August 15, 1996 the Board issued an order directing the complainant to file
    proof of service or an appropriate motion on or before September 1, 1996. On September 5,
    1995 the granted an extension of time to file complainant’s proof of service until September
    27, 1996.
    On September 26, 1996, complainant filed a motion for an extension of time to file
    proof of service until October 21, 1996 on respondents. The complainant explains in its
    motion that it has initiated service by certified mail on all respondents but has only obtained
    service on one of the respondents, Eaton Corporation. Therefore complainant requests an
    additional extension to allow for service to be obtained on all respondents. On October 1,
    1996 complainant filed proof of service of respondents Bicoastal Corporation and Singer
    Corporation. There has been no response filed by the Eaton Corporation or any other named
    respondent as of the date of this order.
    The Board grants complainant’s motion for an extension of time until October 21,
    1996. If proof of service is not filed with the Board on or before October 21, 1996 this matter
    will be dismissed. If proof of service is timely filed for some but not all of the respondents,
    this matter will proceed against only those respondents which have been served.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
