    The Board accepts the
    amended petition.
    The Board notes that on January 31,

    Board received a filing which requests that a hearing be held in
    this matter.

    Adin. Code 106.713
    a
    hearing will be scheduled on this request.
    This is a type of case for which the Act prescribes no
    deadline for decision, although as noted the Act requires the
    petitioner to timely pursue disposition of the petition.
    Therefore, hearing must be scheduled and completed in a timely
    manner, consistent with Board practices and
    35 Ill. Adm. Code
    Part 101 and Part 106, subpart G.

    assigned hearing officer consistent with this order.

    Board of the time and location of the hearing at least 40 days in
    advance of hearing so that public notice of hearing may be
    published.
    After hearing, the hearing officer shall submit an
    exhibit list, a statement regarding credibility of witnesses and
    all actual exhibits to the Board within five days of the hearing.
    Any briefing schedule shall provide for final filings as
    expeditiously as possible.
    If after appropriate consultation with the parties, the
    parties fail to provide an acceptable hearing date or if after an
    attempt the hearing officer
    is unable to consult with the
    parties, the hearing officer shall unilaterally set a hearing
    date in conformance with the schedule above.
    The hearing
    officer and the parties are encouraged to expedite this
    proceeding as much as possible.
