    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by M. McFawn):
    On Nay 16,
    1994 Pekin Metro Landfill
    (Pekin)
    filed a motion
    for a 60-day extension of the briefing schedule in each of its
    two permit appeals, PCB 92-212 and PCB 93—1.
    In each case, the
    briefing schedule has been previously extended four times by
    Board orders of August
    5,
    1993,
    September 23,
    1993, November 18,
    1993, and February
    3,
    1994.
    The instant requests were
    accompanied by 60-day waivers of the decision deadlines,
    i.e.
    until January 27,
    1995.
    The Illinois Environmental Protection
    Agency
    (Agency) has not filed
    a response.
    As grounds for the first 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.
    In its November 15,
    1993 motion,
    Pekin informed the Board that the parties had reached agreement
    on all substantive issues, but the Attorney General was still
    drafting the proposed consent order.
    In its January
    13,
    1994
    motion,
    Pekin indicated that the parties had negotiated and
    agreed upon the language of the consent order and were awaiting
    final approval from the Office of the Attorney General.
    Pekin now states that the final consent order was issued by
    the Attorney General’s Office and executed by Pekin on March
    7,
    1994.
    Pekin forwarded the consent order to Waste Professionals
    by the week of March
    14,
    1994, which executed it on April
    8,
    1994.
    A representative of Pekin delivered it to the Attorney
    General that same day.
    The parties are now awaiting execution of
    the consent order by the Office of the Attorney General, and its
    entry in the Circuit Court of Tazewell County.
    Pursuant to the
    terms of the consent order,
    the parties will present to the Board
    a joint motion to dismiss within seven days of entry of the
    consent order.
    The motion for extension is granted.
    Petitioner’s closing
    brief is now due on or before July 11,
    1994.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
