    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by M. McFawn):
    On January 13,
    1994,
    Pekin filed a motion for a 120—day
    extension of the briefing schedule in each of two permit appeals,
    PCB 92-212 and PCB 93-1.
    In each case, the briefing schedule had
    been previously extended 60 days by Board orders of
    August
    5,
    1993,
    September 23,
    1993,
    and November 18,
    1993.
    The
    instant requests were accompanied by 120—day waivers of the
    decision deadlines,
    i.e.,
    until November 28,
    1994.
    The Illinois
    Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) has not filed a
    response.
    As grounds for each of the prior three extensions,
    Pekin
    assured the Board that settlement negotiations were ongoing
    between Pekin, the intended purchaser of the landfill, the
    Agency and the Office of the Attorney General and that,
    if
    successful,
    settlement would result in dismissal of the two
    pending permit appeals.
    In its November motion, Pekin informed
    the Board that the parties had reached agreement on all
    substantive issues, but the Office of the Attorney General was
    still drafting the proposed consent order.
    Pekin now states that since the Board’s order of November
    18,
    1993, the parties have negotiated and agreed upon the
    language of the consent order and they are currently awaiting
    final approval from the Office of the Attorney General.
    The motion for extension is granted.
    Petitioner’s closing
    brief is now due on or before May 12,
    1994.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
