OPINION
AND
ORDER OF THE
BOARD
(by G.
T. Girard):
On June 10,
1992, the Board received an administrative
citation (citation)
filed by Sangamon County pursuant to Section
31.1 of the Illinois Environmental Protection Act (Act)
(Ill.
Rev.
Stat.
1991,
ch.

county pursuant to Section 4(r)
of the Act.
The citation alleges
that on April 24, 1992 an on-site inspection of respondent’s
property disclosed violations of Section 21(p)(1) and 21(p)(3)
of
the Act.
On June
5,
1992, the Board received a request to review
the issuance of the citation.
Hearing on this matter was held September 8,
1992,
in
Springfield, Sangamon County,
Illinois.
At hearing, the parties
indicated that they had reached
a settlement agreement and that
the parties would be filing the agreement with the Board.
On
October
5,
1992, the Board received a “Stipulation Agreement”
signed by all parties.
In addition, on October
5,
1992, the
Board received a motion to accept the stipulation agreement as a
final disposition in this matter.
The stipulation agreement dismisses the count alleging
violation of Section 21(p) (1)
of the Act and respondent, Don Chem
on all counts.
Respondent, Delmar Donley admits to past
violations of Section 21(p)(3) of the Act and agrees to pay a
civil penalty of five hundred dollars
($500).
The Board will grant the motion to accept the stipulation
agreement as a final disposition in this matter.
Therefore,
the
Board dismisses all counts as to respondent, Don Chem and the
count alleging violation of Section 21(p) (1)
as to respondent,
