the parties, Stiffel Company
(Stiffel)
and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
(Agency), filed
a joint status report and request for a six month stay of this
proceeding.
This filing was made at the suggestion of the
hearing officer, following his January 20,

parties concerning the status of this case.
The report recites that:
As has been reported previously to the Board
(on June 9,
1992,
Stiffel submitted a
compliance plan regarding 35 Ill. Adm. Code
Part 218, Subpart F regulations to the IEPA
on or about February 7,
1992.
Ms. Armitage
has represented that the Compliance Plan is
acceptable to the IEPA.
Ms. Arinitage has
also represented that the IEPA is in the
process of preparing a recommendation to the
Office of the Illinois Attorney General
regarding a consent order that embodies the
Compliance Plan.
The IEPA and Stiffel anticipate that the
Consent Agreement will resolve all
outstanding issues.
Both the IEPA and
Stiffel agree, therefore, that no hearing
should be scheduled in this matter at
present.
Stiffel and the IEPA request,
therefore, that the Board stay this matter.
Stiffel and the IEPA agree to provide the
Board with a status report in six
(6)
months.
By order of February 25,

“response to February 25,
1993 Board order and motion instanter
for extension of time within which to respond to petition and
motion for leave to file instanter”.
The Agency stated that its
failure to request an extension of time beyond June 23,
1993 in
which to file its response to this petition was inadvertent.
The
Agency accordingly requested a six month extension of time in

as well as the Agency’s motion
for extension, are hereby granted.

before October

extension of time it may need to file its response to the
petition in advance of the date on which the response is due.
