    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by G.
    T.
    Girard):
    On October 24,
    1991,
    the Board on its own motion issued
    orders opening a series of dockets to address rulemaking required
    by the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990
    (CAAA).
    Among
    other
    things, the orders established
    a proposed schedule for submittal
    of regulatory proposals and target dates for Board action, and
    requested public comment on the proposed schedule.
    The following dockets in this series remain open:
    R91-27
    RACT
    Amendments:
    25 TPY Sources
    R91-31
    Employee Trip Reduction Program
    R9l-32
    Granite City SO2 Emissions
    R9l-33
    Alton SO2 Emissions
    R91-34
    Southeast Chicago SO2 Emissions
    R91-37
    PM10:
    Contingency Measures
    No regulatory proposals were filed in any of these dockets.
    The Board is today dismissing each of these dockets.
    The
    timetables proposed by the Board have been superseded by those
    established by the legislature in
    P.A.
    87—1213, effective
    September 26,
    1992.
    Codified in Section 28.5 of the Act, this
    legislation established “fast—track” rulemaking procedures for
    CAAA-required rules,
    1
    and left the timing of the filing of
    regulatory proposal within the discretion of the Agency.
    To avoid any public confusion over procedures to be employed
    in
    CAAA
    rulemakings which could be caused by the use of 1991-
    series docket numbers, the Board will close these old dockets.
