ORDER

OF THE BOARD

(by J. Theodore Meyer):

On April

1,

1994, petitioner CWM Chemical Services, Inc.

(CWM) filed a status report in this proceeding.

The status

report is in response to the Board’s April 23,

1992 order staying

this permit appeal.

As part of that stay,

the Board ordered CWM

to file a status report every 90 days.

This status report recounts the progress being made by CWM

and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency

(Agency) on the

Agency’s review of CWM’s November 1991 RCRA Part B permit

application.

CWN states that it has supplied the Agency with

additional information, including its 1993 northazardous and

hazardous waste reports.

CWM states that the Agency has advised

that it is proceeding with its review of the November 1991 permit

application.

The Board accepts the status report.

However, we must note

our concern with the progress of

this case.

Although we

recognize that review of a Part B permit is a lengthy process,

the application has now been pending at the Agency for over two

years.

The Board reminds CWM that it has a continuing obligation

to submit status reports every 90 days.

Additionally, the Agency

is directed to file a status report, including an estimated

schedule for resolution of this matter, no later than July 1,

1994.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

I, Dorothy N.

Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control

Board,
