    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by M. McFawn):
    On March 14, 2000, Formel Industries, Inc. (Formel) filed a petition for an adjusted
    standard pursuant to Section 28.1 of the Illinois Environmental Protection Act (Act), 415 ILCS
    5/28.1 (1998). Formel seeks an adjusted standard from 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218.401(a), (b), and
    (c), as those rules apply to the emissions of volatile organic material from the operation of three
    central-impression flexographic printing presses at Formel’s facility in Franklin Park, Cook
    County, Illinois.
    Section 28.1 of the Act and 35 Ill. Adm. Code 106.711 require publication of a notice
    of an adjusted standard proceeding in a newspaper of general circulation in the area affected by
    the petitioner’s activity. The notice must be published within 14 days of the filing of the
    petition. On March 28, 2000, Formel filed a “Certificate of Publication,” indicating that notice
    of its petition was published in the
    Chicago Tribune
    on March 25, 2000.
    The Board finds that the notice meets the requirements of Section 28.1 of the Act and 35
    Ill. Adm. Code 106.711, and accepts this matter for hearing. Hearing is to be scheduled and
    completed in a timely manner. The assigned hearing officer must inform the Clerk of the Board
    of the time and location of the hearing at least 40 days in advance of hearing so that a 30-day
    public notice of hearing may be published.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    I, Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control Board, hereby certify that
    the above order was adopted on the 6th day of April 2000 by a vote of 7-0.
    Dorothy M. Gunn, Clerk
    Illinois Pollution Control Board
