    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by J. Anderson):
    On March
    16,
    1993,
    The Grigoleit Company
    (Grigoleit) filed a
    joint status report in response to the Board’s February 25,
    1993
    order in this matter and a motion to continue.
    In its February
    25,
    1993 order, the Board directed the parties to file status
    reports with the Board by March 16,
    1993.
    In its response, Grigoleit requests the Board to continue
    this matter and require the parties to file a status report on or
    before May 3,
    1993.
    In support of its request, Grigoleit states
    that it has continued settlement negotiations with the State
    which would,
    if successful, culminate in the settlement of this
    case as well as the following three cases:
    PCB 91-157, People
    of the State of Illinois v. The Grigoleit Company
    PCB 92—23, The
    Grigoleit ComPanY v. Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
    and PCB 92-110,
    In the Matter of Trade Secret Claim by The
    GricToleit Company.
    Grigoleit adds that,
    in addition to the settlement
    discussions set forth in the parties’ February 16,
    1993 status
    report, the State has provided Grigoleit with written responses
    to the settlement proposal on February 19 and 25,
    1993,
    and on
    March
    16,
    1993.
    On February 25,
    1993, Grigoleit replied to the
    Agency’s February 19,
    1993 response.
    Because of difficulties in
    coordinating schedules, the parties have been unable to meet in
    person to further their discussions.
    The parties are now trying
    to schedule such a meeting for the first week of April.
    In light of the above, the Board grants Grigoleit’s motion
    to continue.
    Accordingly, the Board will reserve ruling on
    Grigoleit’s September 3,
    1992 motion for reconsideration that is
    currently pending in this case.
    The Board notes that this is the
    parties’ fourth motion to continue this matter for the purpose of
    settlement negotiations.
    Accordingly, the Board cautions the
    parties that it will not continue this matter indefinitely and
    that it expects the parties to expeditiously pursue a resolution
    of this case.
    The parties are directed to file status reports in
    0

    2
    this matter.
    Such status reports are to be received by the Board
    no later than May
    3,
    1993.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
