1 HEARING OFFICER KNITTLE: My name is John
2 Knittle. I'm the hearing officer with the Illinois
3 Pollution Control Board. I'm also the assigned hearing
4 officer for this matter which is PCB 1997, dash, 234,
5 Antonio D.H. Nam vs. Kikon Suh scheduled for hearing
6 today. Today's date is March 14th. It is
7 approximately 9:34 a.m. And for the record I will note
8 that there are no members of the public here, nor are
9 either of the attorneys or parties represented. We are
10 in receipt of a motion to continue the trial.
11 Actually, it was filed on March 13th, and it's entitled
12 motion to continue -- joint motion -- excuse me -- to
13 continue trial.
14 In the motion the parties, by their respective
15 attorneys, move to continue the hearing and/or trial of
16 this matter for a period not to exceed 30 days. I've
17 talked to both parties. It is a joint motion. The
18 complainant does not object, even though this was filed
19 by the respondent. And the respondent's assertion that
20 the complainant agrees to this motion is, to my
21 understanding, correct.
22 So we're going to grant this motion to
23 continue the hearing. We've picked dates. How this is
24 going to work is we're going to continue the hearing on
L.A. REPORTING (312) 419-9292
10
1 the record to April 4th and April 5th at 9:30 a.m. here
2 at the same place in the Thompson Center. This is
3 suite 11, dash, 512, and I will provide notice of that
4 in a hearing officer order.
5 So what we're going to do now is we're going
6 to stay on the record for 30 minutes in case any
7 members of the public choose to show up for this
8 hearing, and we're going to take a 30-minute recess.
9 And if nobody shows up, we will close this portion of
10 the hearing and continue it on the record until
11 April 4th. That's it.
12 (A short break was had.)
13 HEARING OFFICER KNITTLE: We are back on the
14 record after a 30-minute recess. I want to note for
15 the record once again that no members of the public
16 have appeared to give public comment in this case. As
17 I stated before -- well, before I get into what I
18 stated before, let me note for the record that we have
19 two members of the Illinois Pollution Control Board
20 that have chosen to join us for the wrap-up of this
21 case. We have Gertrude Kelly and Charles King. So
22 thank you both very much for attending.
23 As I stated before, we have a motion to
24 continue this case. This motion was granted as
L.A. REPORTING (312) 419-9292
11
1 follows. As I stated, this will be continued on the
2 record until April 4th and April 5th. One thing I
3 wanted to notice -- or note, I should say, and I
4 relayed this to the parties at our pre-hearing
5 conference. I'm granting the motion to continue the
6 hearing; but this has been going on for a while, and
7 unless circumstances drastically change, this will be
8 the last continuance that I grant. So this hearing
9 will move forward on April 4th and April 5th, barring
10 any unforeseen circumstances. That's all I have.
11 You guys have anything you want to add?
12 MS. KELLY: No.
13 MR. KING: (Nodding.)
14 HEARING OFFICER KNITTLE: Both employees of
15 the board indicate they have no comment. This is
16 continued on the hearing until April 4th and April 5th,
17 same time and same location. Thank you very much.
18 (Which were all the proceedings had
19 in the above-entitled cause.)
