    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by G.T. Girard):
    On March 2, 1996 the Illinois Attorney General, on behalf of the People of the State of
    Illinois, filed a formal complaint naming as respondent Donald and Robert Hastie d/b/a Hastie
    Trucking and Mining Company, regarding its limestone crushing facility at Cave-in-Rock,
    Hardin County, Illinois. On May 31, 1996 the parties filed a stipulation and proposal for
    settlement accompanied by a request for relief from the requirements of Section 31(a)(1) of the
    Environmental Protection Act (Act) that proposed stipulated settlements be presented at public
    hearing. (415 ILCS 5/31(a)(1) (1994).)
    Section 31(a)(2) of the Act provides that whenever a complaint has been filed on behalf
    of the Agency or by the People of the State of Illinois, the parties may file with the Board a
    stipulation and proposal for settlement accompanied by a request for relief from the
    requirement of a hearing. The Board is required to cause notice of the stipulation, proposal
    and request for relief to be published, unless the Board, in its discretion, concludes that a
    hearing is necessary. The notice is required to include a statement that any person may file a
    written demand for hearing within 21 days after receiving the notice. If any person files a
    timely written demand for hearing, the Board shall deny the request for relief and hold a
    hearing.
    The Board accordingly directs the Clerk to cause publication of the required newspaper
    notice. The Board will reserve ruling on the parties request until after the statutory 21 days
    has passed.
