    HEARING OFFICER ORDER
     
     
    The June 7, 2001 hearing in Springfield will begin at 2:00 p.m., rather than 1:00 p.m.
    Accordingly, the current hearing information is as follows:
     
    FIRST HEARING JUNE 7, 2001
     
     
    2:00 p.m.
     
    ROOM 403
     
    600 S. SECOND STREET
     
      
      
    SPRINGFIELD, ILLINOIS 62704
     
     
    On May 29, 2001, Stanley Yonkauski, on behalf of the Illinois Department of Natural
    Resources (DNR), filed a “petition for leave to intervene.” In support of its motion DNR states
    “[DNR] is the state agency charged with, inter alia, the responsibility for statewide management
    of Illinois’ natural resources including aquatic resources that could be impacted by the
    regulatory proposal,” and “furthermore, [DNR] may be able to provide information relative to
    the decision of the Board on this application as it may affect the state’s natural resources.”
     
     
    The Board welcomes DNR’s participation, both at hearing and in the public comment
    process. But, the petition for leave to intervene is unnecessary as there are no “parties” in
    regulatory proceedings, as there are in contested cases. Accordingly, the petition for leave is
    denied.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
