ORDER OF THE BOARD

(by J.C. Marlin):

On August 7,

1992,

the Agency moved for an extension of time

in which to file its rc~:ord,which was due to be filed August

10,

1992.

In support thereof the Agency states that the parties are

continuing discussions of the issues in this matter, and that use

of scarce resources inassembly of the record would be unnecessary

if

the

matter

is

settled

prior

to

hearing.

Asserting

that

petitioner has no objection to the granting of an extension,

the

Agency requests an extension “until

60 days prior to the date of

hearing”.

The

Board

notes

that

no

hearing

is

scheduled,

and

that

decision has been waived until March 26,

1993.

The

Board

will

grant

an

extension,

but

not

exactly

as

requested by

the Agency.

The Board disfavors

setting deadline

dates contingent on events which have not occurred.

This places an

undue

burden

on

the

Clerk’s

Office

case tracking

system.

The

deadline date for

the

filing

of

the Agency

record

is

extended

through

December

15,

1992.

The

Agency

may request

a

further

extension

(if

necessary)

at that

time,

assuming

petitioner

has

filed an appropriate waiver of the Board’s decision deadline.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
