ORDER OF THE BOARD (by M. NcFawn):

This matter is before the Board on a request for relief from

the requirements of 31(a) (1) that all proposed stipulated

settlements be presented at public hearing. (415 ILCS 5/31(a) (1)

(1992).) This request accompanied a stipulation and proposal for

settlement filed by the parties on June 27, 1994. As required by

Section 3l(a)(2) of the Act, the Board issued an order directing

the Clerk of the Board to publish notice of the stipulation,

proposal, and request for relief. Accordingly, the Clerk caused

publication of the required notice on July 3, 1994. Pursuant to

Section 31(a)(2), the notice included a statement that any person

could request a hearing within 21 days of receiving notice.

On July 7, 1994, the Board received a request for a public

hearing in this matter from Thomas A. Brown, President of the

Village of East Hazel Crest (Village). Therefore, the request

for relief from the requirements of hearing is denied, and this

matter is accepted for hearing.

The hearing must be scheduled and completed in a timely

manner, consistent with Board practices. A hearing officer will

be assigned to this case who will contact the parties and the

Village to determine a mutually agreeable hearing date.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control

Board, hereby certify hat the above order was adopted on the
