    ORDER
    OF THE BOARD
    (by G.
    T. Girard):
    On January
    15,
    1993,
    the parties filed a status report as
    directed by the Board’s
    order
    of
    October
    I,
    1992.
    The
    parties
    report that this matter is an appeal by Olin of the decision by
    IEPA to deny the incinerator portion of Olin’s application for a
    RCRA Part B Hazardous Waste Management Permit for Olin’s Main Plant
    facility in East Alton,
    Illinois.
    Pursuant to the negotiations,
    Olin conducted a trial burn of its hazardous waste incinerator on
    December 18, 1991 and submitted a report of the results to IEPA on
    March 13, 1992.
    Both parties expect that
    any
    remaining issues will
    be
    resolved
    by
    mutual
    agreement,
    once
    information
    from
    the
    incinerator trial burn is analyzed by IEPA.
    When IEPA has reviewed
    the
    trial
    burn
    data,
    a
    draft
    permit
    will
    be
    issued
    for the
    incinerator.
    Both parties expect that
    this
    draft permit may be
    acceptable to Olin, leading to the issuance of a final permit and
    disinissalof this appeal.
    Based on this belief, the parties have
    not initiated discovery in connection with this matter.
    The
    parties assert that “the time period for review of the
    trial burn data and for determining the terms of a draft Part B
    Permit has been delayed”.
    IEPA anticipates that its evaluation may
    require several additional
    months.
    Because the parties do not
    anticipate that the matter will be settled by the former May 16,
    1993 decision deadline,
    Olin has
    filed an additional waiver
    of
    decision deadline until May 16, 1994.
    The parties are directed to file an updated status report on
    or before April
    15,
    1993.
    The updated report shall
    contain an
    estimated date for the completion of this matter.
    IT IS SO
    ORDERED.
