    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by R.C. Flemal):
    This matter is before the Board upon an amended petition for
    exception from the Board’s combined sewer overflow (CSO)
    regulations filed by the City of Morris
    (Morris) on October 21,
    1992.
    Morris currently holds a temporary exception from the CSO
    regulations’.
    In the instant petition Morris seeks to make the
    exception permanent.
    Among recent developments was the filing on July 11,
    1994 by
    Morris of additional information.
    By filing of October 31,
    1994,
    the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
    (Agency) now seeks
    leave to file a response.
    The Agency observes that information
    in the July 11 filing, plus other information which has come to
    the Agency’s attention as recently as October 20,
    1994, has
    caused the Agency to reexamine its earlier position in this
    matter.
    In particular,
    the Agency supports grant of the
    permanent CSO exception subject to conditions as set out in its
    October 31,
    1994 filing.
    The Agency’s Motion for Leave to File Agency Reply as filed
    on October 31,
    1994
    is hereby granted.
    The Board hopes that these developments will now allow this
    matter to be brought to final resolution.
    Absent other
    developments, the Board accordingly intends to bring this matter
    to decision consistent with Board resources and time constraints.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    The temporary exception was granted based on a petition
    filed in 1986.
    The Board has retained jurisdiction during the
    pendency of the temporary exception, which accounts for the
    continued use of the original docket number.
