(by J. Anderson):
On May 11,
1993, The Grigoleit Company (Grigoleit)
filed a
joint status report on behalf of it and the People of the State
of Illinois
(People)
in response to the Board’s March 25,
1993
order as well as a motion for leave to file the status report
instanter.
In its March 25,
1993 order, the Board directed the
parties to file status reports with the Board by May 3,
1993.
In
its status report, Grigoleit requests the Board to
continue this matter and require the parties to file a status
report on or before June
4,
1993.
In support of its request, the
Grigoleit states that it and the People have continued
settlement negotiations which would,
if successful,
culminate in
the settlement of this case as well as the following three cases:
PCB 90-135, The Grigoleit Company v. Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency
PCB 92-23, The GricToleit Company v.
Illinois
Environmental Protection Agency
and PCB 92-110,
In the Matter of
Trade Secret Claim by The Grigoleit Company.
Grigoleit adds that the parties met on April
29,
1993.
At
such time, Grigoleit provided the State with information in
response to questions and issues that had been previously
discussed during prior settlement negotiations.
The State
is
reviewing the information and will shortly respond with any
questions and comments.
At the outset, the Board notes that Grigoleit,
in its motion
for leave to file the status report instanter, represents that
the People have no objection to the motion.
Accordingly, the
Board grants Grigoleit’s motion for leave to file the status
report instanter.
The Board also notes that this is the parties’ fifth motion
to continue this matter for the purpose of settlement
negotiations.
In the interests of administrative economy,
however, the Board accepts the status report and grants the
request to continue.
The Board cautions the parties, however,
that it will not continue this matter indefinitely and that it
expects the parties to expeditiously pursue a resolution of this
