    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by
    3.
    Anderson):
    By our order of January 21,
    1993 the Board required Cabot
    Corp.,
    in part,
    to submit a status report as follows:
    Cabot shall submit a status report to the Board no
    later than June 30,
    1993 that clearly delineates the
    status of its “Part 620 working plan”, the general
    nature of any results then already submitted to the
    Agency, and the general nature of any responses
    received from the Agency.
    On June 29,
    1993, Cabot filed such a document with the Board.
    That document outlines Cabot’s efforts towards resolving
    outstanding issues with the Agency.
    In its status report, Cabot represents that the Agency
    approved its December
    17,
    1992 “investigation work plan” by
    a
    letter dated March
    1,
    1993.
    According to Cabot Corp.,
    the field
    work in this plan took place in March and April,
    and it is
    currently analyzing the data.
    Cabot intends to submit the report
    from this study to
    the Agency in the first half of July.
    Cabot
    further states that it presently anticipates draft Agency action
    on its
    RCRA
    part B permit application in September,
    1993 and that
    this action may resolve groundwater issues still outstanding
    between it and the Agency.
    Cabot states that after
    it has
    received the draft Part B permit,
    it will know whether it will
    pursue the adjusted standard or to withdraw its petition.
    Cabot
    represents as follows:
    “Cabot either will obtain an adjusted
    standard or install secondary containment for its tank systems by
    the dates secondary containment is required.”
    For the foregoing reasons, the Board hereby modifies
    Condition A of the previously-granted January 21,
    1993 stay of
    this proceeding through December
    31,
    1993 on TK-0048
    & TK-0051.
    The stay is subject to the following conditions:
    A.
    Cabot shall submit a status report to the Board no
    later than September 30,
    1993 that clearly delineates
    the further action it intends in this proceeding in
    light of its draft Part B permit, the general nature of
    any unresolved issues in light of the Agency’s actions,
    and the dates by which Cabot intends to pursue those
    further actions; and
    2
    B.
    Cabot will timely comply with the RCRA secondary
    containment standards of 35
    Ill. Adm. Code 725.293,
    except as otherwise provided by Board order or
    regulation.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
