ORDER OF THE BOARD

(by J.

Anderson):

Amendments to this variance petition were received October 17,

1980.

This petition, even with the amendments,

still

fails to

provide much of the information required by Procedural Rule 401.

Since hearing was waived,

it is most important that the petition

contain sufficient information.

Specifically, the Board requires

at

least the following information:

1.

Details concerning the health threats and other results

of the homeowners’

seriously “malfunctioning private sewer systems,”

2.

A description of these private systems,

3.

An explanation of what alternatives,

if any, there are

to

connection of these homes ~o the Highview Estates treatment plant,

and an estimate of the costs involved,

and

4.

An estimated timetable for initiation and completion of

necessary expansion and upgrading of the Highview Estates treatment

plant,

and an estimate of the costs to the plant and the homeowners.

If, within 45 days of the date of this Order,

Petitioners do

not file an amended petition containing the requested information,

this petition may be subject to dismissal.

The

amended petition

must be accompanied by an affidavit verifying the truth of the

matters alleged in the petition.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

I, Christan L.

Moffett,
