(Administrative Citation)

ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J.
Yi):
This matter is before the Board pursuant to
a September 7,
1995 filing of a motion for reconsideration by CDT Landfill,
Corp.
(CDT Landfill).
cv’r
Landfill is requesting the Board to
reconsider our default order issued on August 24,
1995.
As of
the date of this order Will County has not responded to the
motion.
This matter was before the Board upon the June 30, 1995
filing of an administrative citation pursuant to Section 31.1 of
the Illinois Environmental Protection Act
(Act)
by Will County.
In that administrative citation Will County alleges that on April
28,
1995, CDT Landfill, present owner and/or operator of a
facility located in Will County and commonly known to the County
as CDT Landfill, violated Sections 21(o) (6) and 21(0) (9)
of the
Act.
(415 ILCS 5/21(o) (6) and
(o)(9)
(1994).)
The statutory
penalty established for each violation is $500.00 pursuant to
Section 42(b)(4)
of the Act.
(415 ILCS 5/42(b)(4)
(1994).)
CDT
Landfill did not file a petition for review with the Clerk of the
Board within 35 days of the date of service as allowed by
Section
31.1(d) (2) of the Act.
(415 ILCS 5/31.1(d)(2)
(1994).)
Therefore,
on August 24,
1995, pursuant to Section 31.1(d) (1),
the Board fbund that CDT Landfill had violated the provisions
alleged in the administrative citation and issued an order
assessing a penalty of $1,000.00.
CDT Landfill requests the Board to reconsider the order of
August 24,
1995, on the basis that it did send a petition of
review on July 5,
1995 and that “~a)pparently, something happened
and it did not properly reach your office but we can attest that
it was placed in the mail by our office on July 5,
1995.”
Attached is a photocopied petition for review dated July 5,
1995
that has a typed docket number of AC 95-49 with the number 49
crossed out and, with blue ink,
a hand written number 50 in its
place.
Additionally there is a Will County designation of WC 95
AC 10 below the docket number.
CDT Landfill does not include an
affidavit or any other information which demonstrates its
2
contention that it filed a timely petition for review in this
matter.
The Board’s rules at Section 101.246(d)
state that the Board
will consider factors including, but not limited to “error in the
decision and facts in the record which are overlooked”.
(35 Ill.
Adm. Code 246.)
CDT Landfill presents the Board with evidence
which was not before the Board when it made its decision.
Therefore we will review the Board’s prior decision.
Will County also filed an administrative citation against
CDT Landfill which has been docketed as AC 95-49
and had a Will
County designation of WC 95 AC 9 in addition to this
administrative citation.
On July 7,
1995,
CDT Landfill filed a
petition for review which had a typed docket number of AC 95—49
and a Will County designation of WC 95 AC 10 below the docket
number which was dated July 5,
1995.
The Board docketed this as
a petition for review in AC 95-49, which was accepted and
consolidated with AC 95-38 by our order of July 20,
1995.
It may be that CDT Landfill was utilizing a form letter for
the petition for review in
both of these
cases
and had intended
to alter the docket numbers to correspond to the two
administrative citations.
However, only one petition for review
was ever actually filed with the Board.
The fact that CDT
Landfill filed with the motion for reconsideration a copy of a
petition for review for AC 95-49 which had been altered in blue
ink to reflect that it was for AC 95-50 does not demonstrate that
a separate petition for review for AC 95-50 was ever filed.
The
Board will not accept one petition for review bearing one docket
number to serve as a petition for review for two separate
administrative citations.
The Board has reviewed the motion to reconsider and finds
that CDT Landfill has nOt pointed
to any error in the Board’s
original order, presented new facts or arguments or stated any
other reason to conclude that the order was in error.
Therefore,
we affirm our order of August 24,
1995.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
