    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by M. McFawn):
    On May 3,
    1994,
    the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
    (Agency)
    filed a motion to withdraw one attorney’s appearance and
    substitute another, along with a motion for an extension of time
    to file the Agency’s response in this matter.
    The Agency’s
    response has been due since February 18,
    1994 pursuant to the
    Board’s order of January 20,
    1994.
    The Agency acknowledges that
    its response is overdue, but represents that the parties are
    negotiating a settlement
    in this matter.
    The Agency requests
    until May 23,
    1994 to file its response.
    The Agency’s motions to
    withdraw and substitute are granted.
    The Board
    is critically aware that this matter has not
    progressed since the Board’s order of August 26,
    1993.
    At that
    time the parties disagreed about whether the adjusted standard
    procedure was available to petitioner.
    Given the lengthy delay
    in the Agency filing its response and its statement that
    negotiations are ongoing, the Board will assign a hearing officer
    and order that a pre—hearing conference be scheduled to discuss
    the underlying causes for the delay and the best procedural and
    expeditious manner for considering the relief sought by
    petitioner.
    If after appropriate consultation with the parties, the
    parties fail to provide an acceptable date or if after reasonable
    attempts the hearing officer is unable to consult with the
    parties, the hearing officer shall unilaterally set a date for
    the pre-hearing conference.
    The Board will grant the Agency
    until May 23,
    1994 to file it’s response in this matter.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    I, Dorothy M. Gunn,
    Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control
